Ok just to clear a few things up... I have PMed a few members and now everything is a bit clearer for me and them concerned... sometimes things can just get a bit offline and the path becomes windy... with knocking a few heads together the problem is solved and the line becomes straight again.
With regards to FiestaST.com "The other site" as it is commonly referred to. Members of both sites MUST NOTICE the difference between the sites... Jims site is an OWNERS CLUB... and this site is NOT... Some tensions became apparent about 4 months back and a post was added to clear this up...
As an Admin and Mod of this site I will clear this spillage of emotions up right now before it starts to get a bit nasty.
NONE of the Staff members here have any problems with the other site... we refer to it as "the other site" not because were trying to make a big thing of it but we do not want to lose members by over advertising the fact... if they want to join the other then im sure you are quite capable of finding it yourself... I link this to a car dealership... your not going to refer them to another one of the same manufacturer just for the sake of it??? Again I must emphasis both sites appeal to slightly different people!!!
As I have said in the Video thread I do not have the right just to include a video uploader when Im not paying for the site and forum... Dave and Hugh will not accept any payment from myself or anybody else for the running costs on this site so bare this in mind... you may start kicking up a fuss about this but you DONT have to pay for it!!! I shall upload the video when I have had a word with either of them... until then... no!
Finally with regards to linking...
I personally devote ALL my spare time to this site and DO NOT have any more time to become a member of both sites... I am studying a computing degree and I do have a bit of spare time at the moment but I still only manage to deal with this forum... I will not even be able to do this much as time goes on this is why their are other moderators, we all share the work load... and believe me there is more to do than you may think!!!
Other may not want to sign up to two sites and are perfectly happy with just one. If people were ONLY members of Jims site and a video was uploaded to this site I do not see the problem with linking this post onto there... and likewise the other way... I do not have the time to siv through all the posts on their and due to not being a member this would be made ever more difficult.
A simple link would be perfectly acceptable... as for some of the comments made... I have noted... This forum has never accepted any bitchy comments... It has always been a very nice place to be with a warm welcome and a positive atmosphere... this WILL NOT CHANGE as I will act on this straight away like I have done now.
I have had to explain this twice now, can people please take note of what I have said and use it on BOTH this site and also JIMS site as neither site deserves this harsh atmosphere...
Keep them both apart particularly if you use both sites!!!
On that note i shall end my comments and hope for a happy atmosphere again.
If anyone has complaints with any of my comments then PLEASE PLEASE PM me straight away... I will not take sides and will take your comments in the STRICIST CONFIDENSE!!!
Heads up, legs in the air and lets get some positive action everyone
