It would appear there are only two people here who really care whether Cal is still here or not, and those two would be Phil (part of team hellfire)
and razman, and I know from reading the history that you two are the main ones he played with, it would also appear you two have a
"personal" interest/vendetta against Cal.
Get on with your own lives guys otherwise it looks to me and anyone else with half a brain that your a pair of sad old gits with no lives of your own.

Let's get one thing clear - I couldn't give a monkey's if he stays or goes. However if he wants to stay then he simply has to abide
by the forum rules like anybody else. HE was the one who started a personal attack on ME, along with a number of other people too - you might not be
aware of these so do not assume that he just has a problem with Phil & myself, as we are just the tip of the iceberg.
He attempted to publish photographs of my car in a pathetic attempt to discredit me in some way - I merely turned this attack around and as a result
he once again deleted his posts in a vain attempt to escape ridicule. Have a look at the one post he left behind in the 'Special Offers'
section and you will see his style, although ChrisW has edited it because of his abuse of forum rules. It is strange that he hasn't deleted that
post - possibly because I suggested that he should and he just loves to be retaliatory.
His behaviour borders on the psychotic imo and you have to admit he has done some very strange things on these forums. To actually delete all of his
posts (on at least two of his 'identities' is not only strange, but can only be regarded as nothing more than an act of childish
vandalism, (must have taken ages too) making complete nonsense of what used to be a very useful and informative thread.
He has always been very quick to point the finger of blame in the past, whether it is justified or not – let him see how it feels for a change! In the
middle ages he would have been the one heading the lynch mob with a burning torch, shouting for blood without knowing the full facts of the situation.
A useful forum member? – I think not!
He has offered some good advice in the past but no one will ever know now will they? He gives the impression that he is just a spoiled child who
throws all his toys out of his pram and shouts at the top of his voice. This is his own doing and he certainly doesn't need any help in this
area.
As I have said before, anyone is welcome on the forums as long as they abide by the rules – if they don’t, then good riddance.
Sad old git signing off

As I was at Donnington when Cal took the pictures of your car, I had a ringside seat as to the reason for the pics, now weather you like it or not
Cal's reasoning was to show that your car was just as everyones car is nothing more special than anyone elses, and what was bugging him that
people who hadn't seen your car in the flesh were blowing smoke up your ass about how special it is, when in reality like everyones car yours
has its little faults too, it was the same with the hellfire MK, he felt everyone adored that car, that while built as a nice example was nothing
special and it too had its little faults.
Maybe his methods were unorthodox, but we are what we are.

As a first posting on this section I personally think this is the root of the problem... "he" CalvinX "felt that everyone adored
that car"... we have not and do not confess that our car is, or ever was special to anyone else other than us.
Perhaps it was in Calvin's own mind that our car was special and he resented that in some way and made personal remarks about both Phil and I
aswell as coutless other members on this forum.
Frankly - I think this thread is getting a little too childish, therefore I wont be participating further. I have other more pressing things to do
like watch the grass grow or watch the stars move. I am a member of another car related site (unrelated to locost's/kits) and it has non of the
bickering, personal attacks and innuendo's this site seemed to gain when CalvinX joined it - I'm not saying he caused it, but if the cap
fits. I freqent this site less and less as a result.
I dont know (and don't want to know) what CalvinX's new name is and honestly, I couldn't care less. While ever you're looking
backwards you cant be looking forwards... let him be what he wants to be.
Move on guys - ATB Steve

Anyone who can build, modify, rebuild, restore etc a car, no matter what it looks like in the end can claim it is special. It is a bit out of order
for someone to publicly rubbish that persons extraordinary achievement.
No car is perfect is it. As with anything aesthetic it is a personal thing and subjective.
Still dont understand why the secrecy, but as they say up North -nowt as queer as folk. If we were all the same it would be a dull place. Can we drop
it now. This thread will only go off at a tangent and hijack itself.

My last comment and post on this thread....
The only reason for posting it, is my dislike of the way in which CalvinX is frequenting this forum. To do so under a different username is all a bit
too cloak and dagger-like for me and if he has no ulterior motive, then why not come back and post under his own username? Once you've been
stabbed in the back, you tend to look over your shoulder more frequently. Hence this thread.

Agreed Phil, and it did have to be said. And a fitting closing statement.

forum for people building cars locost or not, Now it appears that anything goes i dont want to read about people having a mad 5 mins then coming to
there senses and its ok im back to building the car guys or people who have split with there partners get on with your life who cares go speak to your
shrink. Cars engines modifying bits to fit cars thats what we are here for. Any other personel problems keep to yourself.
If anyone is offended by any of the above tough live with it we all have problems.

This is a community of people, with different backgrounds but a main common interest - building cars.
Life would be boring if we talked about the same stuff all the time, whats the problem with talking about some stuff thats off topic? If you dont like
reading it, then dont go in the 'anything else' or 'mad house' sections. Its pretty simple really!
Stick to the techy forums if thats all you want to read.

Im not offended, just suprised at yours and other a few other peoples closed mindedness.
I for one have made a lot of friends through this site, and when we meet up we dont spend all the time talking about cars.
If you dont like what you read, DONT READ IT, its as simple as that.
Lifes too short to get wound up just because you dont like something you are reading on a computer screen. Like I said, if you only want the benefit
of the technical knowledge people have, then fine, use this link:
http://locostbuilders.co.uk/index.php?gid=1
And thats all you will need to see of LCB.

Likewise Flak i have made many friends and am thankful for the info i have gleaned from this site and the tiger site. I just dont think its
appropriate for people to be airing their private life and/or problems on this forum. Getting back to the calvinx The guy likes winding people up dont
take the bait ignore it. It will soon stop. I have only met the guy once at Donnington seems like a nice guy says what he thinks very helpful though.
