I do have a few baseball caps kicking about. I might consider a random award for particularly useful technical posts, constructive comment or humourous posts, yes. I'll see if I can introduce a voting system if it can be done unobtrusively.

See he's trying to win already. Personally I'd nominate nmilton for his sterling work in promoting TVR and general enthusiast driving to the Horse community in the last month. That was one of the funniest tangents I have ever seen a thread go off on.

I'd have to agree that Nick & Mel's double act in the Horse & Hounds forum was pure genius. (Cue jokes about Nick horsing around and hounding other memebers) [Note: last word in the above sentence dedicated to cambell]

Harshly treated in my opinion, however earlier ref in "No More Crap" thread quoted below.

...Are you going to introduce a 'yellow card' system to warn us or will it be instant Binned sticker followed by expulsion to the Gardeners World site?

Thanks JSG, crist I even got your name wrong. The one that got binned said "I like the yellow card" Well at least you did the same as me in getting your name wrong but I think you have done that on purpose, do you all follow what I say with some interest (plus with a dictionary) to see if, and where I go wrong ? I thank you all for your kind dedications all over this fine forum

Chaps, what can I say ??! I would point out, however, that without such willing "prey" the foray into the world of all things equestrian could have been a little dull. Fortunately they did us proud !! Clapblem, your posts sometimes require a little more than a dictionary - a translator might be more appropriate, although figuring out which language they'd need to know could be an altogether trickier problem !! However, I simply put your sometimes bizarre, but always funny, posts down to enthusiasm on your part ! Keep it up, and rest assured that we're only pulling your leg and not being mean or nasty.

Nick and Mel.... Firstly, thanks guys for brightening up the last couple of weeks with your raids on the H+H site. Secondly - any chance of doing something similar on a Max Power style site ? Thanks again guys - biggest laugh I've had in ages Andy

Possibly, but they tend to be gobby little kids who just come back with abuse rather than rational arguments. Actually now I look at it it's not that different to the H&H lot..... You find a suitable site, we'll do some recon and see if it's worth pulling their legs a bit. The only problem is we have to be careful we don't accidentally lead them all here. Trolling is fun provided a) the other site is completely oblivious to the fact that you're trolling or b) they're abundantly aware what you're up to but treat it as a laugh. However, it's not quite so amusing when it just degenerates into invasions between sites. The other thing I'd say is that many of the one-make sites frequently get unwelcome visitors and it's hard to get them to take the bait without it all turning nasty. Not really my idea of fun to be honest. Now, if there's an Austin Allegro / Maxi / Marina site then they could be good for a chuckle.....
