I’m for a “bring back Rob” campaign… I know he was a little erm, different ? but I miss some of his more controversial posts and besides, it takes all sorts.
Can’t see him coming back though…
All he had to do was to agree to abide by the rules…

You are of course assuming that he isn’t back already. 
I haven’t a clue what all this is about, having been off the site for some weeks due to technical difficulties, and haven’t seen the pictures. But if, as we are assured, this is not about the pictures but a pm made public and then released for the rest of us to read, I am at a bit of a loss to understand the fuss.
Whilst unpleasant and childish, I hardly think it is the disgusting personal attack that it was originally represented to be. We can hear this any day of the week in the House of Commons, or the US site.
Which Rob are we talking about anyway? Surely not the one from Yorkshire who once was locked up for allegedly trying to run over wheel clampers? Hardly think so but if so I think it is a great pity.
Salut, David.

I see his posting rights are still suspended so he’s either logging in with a different addy, not seen any posts that suggest this, or he’s read only…
If you ARE reading Rob K I for one wish you well.
he’s on another site now
Well here’s a poser for you all.
Look on the Memberlist and you will see on page one,member number 31, Rob K. Now go to page 31 of the memberlist,member number 1550, RobK.
What’s going on then mods and admin■■?
Not only that,member number 1551 is ■■?, and for a brief period on Tuesday evening there was a member, number 1552 with the username : So Much For Being Banned 
Which was deleted within twenty minutes of me spotting it. This last user had even posted on this thread,which was also deleted.
There seems to be a lot of ‘sectret squirrel’ going on at the moment. Please enlighten us.

Why should anyone give a stuff that one member of over 1500 has had his posting rights removed??
OK, Rob could spin a tale, but we have over 1500 over members who are just as interesting! Who I hear you ask! well you that is reading this!
facts to think about , since this member who abused a Admin and refused to apoligise.
Record numbers are logging on to TruckNet.
More posts are being read and replied to.
I liked Rob as much as any member, in fact I have emailed him since his posting rights were removed.
TruckNet goes forward with or without him, NO MEMBER IS BIGGER THAN TRUCKNET!
lets not pretend otherwise!
The admin do a grand job, let them continue to build and police the best website for us, Truckers!

I agree too TC, but the fact that this is still being discussed, and it seems to be an issue for so many members says something. Sure there are over 1550 members… but take a good look at the members list and how many of those have actually ever posted anything… the majority haven’t. It’s the ones that contribute by posting that make the site… and like him or not, Rob contributed a great deal. So I guess the question is…how do ya get those members that have a big fat 0 next to their name to start posting?
Just took a quick look… of 1550 (ish) members, 650 have never posted, and 503 have less than 10 posts since joining. Fact is… in relation to the number of members of this site, a small percentage actually contribute anything on a regular basis. THAT is what should change! Any ideas?
Welllllllll… In my experience, all you have to do is post something (a) Stupid (b) Contraversial (c) Wayyyyyyy out there or (d) Mostly in agreement in order to gain responses.
(cough… did I type that? I was expecting to be banned!)
I think that users who log onto the site don’t like taking risks. They log on and then fear typing something daft, and then have a worry that what they type will be ‘sneered’ at by those who post all the time.
They worry that if they ask or post something … OMG … they may be wrong … and then they mess up. (cough… I have messed up many a time on 'ere… but no one has banned me yet?)
Most of the other regular posters, are not as thick as I am and they will help if you ask!
Most importantly 'though, I feel that posts from established users of the site, are more likely to be responded to by newer users, if the established users ASK for advice, rather than proffer it.
Go on… try it… all those who post regularly… ask a question in any forum … that you have always wanted to know the answer to, and then see if you get a response.
I suppose we all get a bit near the knuckle at times…but i think he went over the top…we are adults and go against anyone who crosses the line whether its on T/N or in our private lives…we all know the rules but try and push them…but unfortunately…sometimes…there are the site admins and moderators there to enforce the rules which we try and break…i am behind ALL the site workers and do appreciate the hard work they put in on our behalf to keep this site decent so that we can portray our selves as different to what people portray us to be whilst on the road…the majority of truckers do swear…myself included…but a lot of them have no decency in where they do it and sometimes gloat at the prospect of doing it in front of children and adults alike…but its not the norm for me…and nor is it to attack staff members just because they thought they were in the wrong…which now its been explained fully…was not the case…so maybe he will admit he was wrong…be a man…and apologise…if not…its his loss…
have a nice day

How come you never see Rob K and Vince together 
We should organise the same question for Vince
Whys Vince gone?
One of the most unfortunate things about the written word is once its written you can’t change it, unlike your mind!
Maybe we should just let this post die a slow death.
