Why`s robk gone?

Although I don’t think he will I hope Rob comes back, I’ll miss sparring with him now and again :wink: :smiley:

Whatever you decide Rob I wish you well.

Wheel Nut:
As the site has turned into something resembling a sunday school with slapped ankles for the pupils every time they post something against the middlesbrough rules, then rob wont be the last one to go.

For gods sake we are all adults, those that aren’t show more grown up behaviour than some of the other members.

INDEED

It’s better than Eastenders this, who needs the telly?

This is a public site…anyone with a computer can access this site and read its contents (young or old)…Rob is a top poster; I grant you that, but it does not give him any right to get away with his actions…rules are rules…and as for turning my forum into nothing less than a ■■■■ site…its not going to happen! A member of the public or a possible sponsor could come across this site & find obscene and offensive pictures posted here. These days most drivers wish to be classed as professionals in their occupation, are obscene or offensive pictures really the image we wish to portray? As for the incident with Pam then I’m all for open discussion but a personal attack is just immature….some have you have posted and said we are all adults, but name calling and attacks is playground stuff…that’s not being an adult.
I really hope Rob comes back but that’s his decision.

Bully

we should try truckers moan page at least threr is not them and us as is on this site it is about certain people got down of there high horse.
if rob sent his comments in a PRIVATE P.M then it is private and it should have stayed that way and not passed to others.
this site is worse than being back at school.
all i will say on the subject is thank god that certain people are not standing for local goverment.

Anyway…

Anyone coming out for a pint or what ? :wink:

As I see it both parties, Rob and Mrs Mix, have given permission for the contents of PMs/e-mails to be published. Now Robs version differs from Mrs Mix’s version and they cannot both be true. Lucy has supported Mrs Mix’s version and has said that this is able to be proved. Rob should now, through Kitkat if he is the chosen medium, identify which posts Mrs Mix has previously removed.

In all honesty I think the number of occasions Rob has posted problems with neighbours, the police and other road users to name but 3 I don’t believe that he would be able to do so. As to whose loss is greater we’ll never know but I doubt its TruckNetUK.

Can I just briefly clarify something here…the text which I have quoted by Rob above was NOT a pm. It was a post made in THIS public forum, which was then moved to the Storage Shed - where it remains to this day.

He did also send the same text to myself and Pam in the form of a PM…but that is not what has been reproduced here.

I can hardly believe that Rob posted pornographic images onto a public site…

Why? Why on Earth did he do it? My children are frequently in this room while I’ m on the pc. Why should they have to look at that sort of stuff? They are six years old.

Good riddance to him, and to anyone who supports his “right” to post ■■■■ on TruckNet. There are plenty of places on the internet for [zb]- this isn`t one of them.

I always like reading Rob`s posts- although he can be antagonistic, he is just as likely to post valuable and helpful information, so I for one hope that he is reconciled.

I can confirm that being a moderator is a difficult and thankless task, and I wish that Rob had shown Mrs Mix a little more common courtesy.

Still, like I said, I hope he returns, and with this end in mind, I have once again changed my signature.

Vince

Vince:
I didnt see the pictures myself so I cant comment on that, but its a shame that Rob couldnt have expressed himself in a more adult manner.

But lets keep things on an amicable footing and wish him all the best, regardless of where he has decided to go.

Vince

and then good riddance in the last post vince?

Because at the time I posted the two messages you quoted, I hadn`t realised that he had been posting pornographic images on here.

So why did he do that? What have pornographic images got to do with road transport?

Look, he’s gone. It’s his loss, not ours. Let’s just leave it at that.

Vince

Having seen the pictures i wouldn’t describe them as pornagraphic in the slightest to be honest. And from what i remember there was only one hat could possibly taken as such. However what is done is done and how the site administrators decide to run the site is up to them i guess. And i think it was much much more about the reply given by rob than the pictures themselves.

I do not think that there should be any ‘public’ apologies. It all went ■■■■ up… and someone should be the adult. Adults in the real world, get on with it! When you mess up, in the real world, you make ammends and move on even if there is a history!

Rob is a good poster and he makes the web site accessible and welcoming to others (even if he spouts off sometimes) mrs mix also does a good and thankless job too!

When a ‘public apology’ is demanded, it makes for hard work!

Big tough truckers argueing on a web site :unamused:

Get over it! Get over yourselves!! :unamused:

<<< Mutters something about ‘big babies’ and shuffles off to look at other websites, as will others if you don’t get yours act sorted. Tut

i wondered why i hadnt seen any posts from rob ive not been on for over a month so i missed all the fuss and the pics oh well. :laughing:

I must have been living under a rock the last few weeks. I’d heard RobK had been banned, but had no idea why or what happened. He can definitely be antagonistic, insulting, and lacks tact a lot of the time. And I can’t believe I’m going to defend him, cause he’s offended me more than once… but,unless things have been edited out, I don’t exactly see where the quote Lucy gave was a personal attack…“fat beak” is just an expression… we’ve all used similar terms. I don’t think he actually meant that she’s got one. He was rude, immature, and as he would say… spat his dummy out way too soon, and could have shown a little more maturity, but I, and several other people, have had a lot worse attacks than that on these forums,… some from him I might add… some have been locked and some have not. And we’re usually just told that we’re too sensitive… One question that should be considered though… was he more of an asset to the other members, or more of a pain in a zb? I think we’d all have a different opinion on that… but thats what makes it a forum.

Think I’ll pull up a chair,round 2 looks ready to start anytime. :laughing: :laughing:

Dan.

Very well articulated Kate!
