Have I gone mad?

[lady topaz]

Where's Michael Goulds farewell thread gone????

If its here and I can't see it then it seems I should start to heed the lay off the Gin advice !!!!!

Not gone mad, I can't find it either.

Can't imagine why it was removed, unless Michael asked for it to be? Very odd.

[Shmee]

What thread? Did this really exist or have I really not been in here for that long!?

[Magic919]

I read it. Wouldn't be too surprised if he asked for it to be removed.

Why

[LordBretSinclair]

It was definitely on here, it gave me the chance to make fun of Jockman again and now its gone

[Zod]

Perhaps he changed his mind. I've been telling him for years that you can fit small children in the back of a DB9.

[Jockman]

I caught it up until Di's posting as I was leaving work - was ready to post up Michael's final 'List' tonight.

I just can't believe he's really gone. Life will never be the same again. How will I cope ?? How will we all cope ?? How could he do this just before Christmas ?? Has he no shame ?? Has somebody offended him ?? Even my cat is upset.

[Cipo]

Strange one, his thread on a well known Italian forum is still there.........

[Jockman]

Yeti's on it too trying to educate a dinosaur with a few outdated viewpoints

[t1blk]

Lol, it seems Elvis has indeed left the building as they say,well Mr Gould at least. I was the first on his farewell thread to express my dissmay yesterday, then when I took a look later it was gone. Jockman do you really think he could be offended by anyone on here, I'm sure he'll be back if only for the banter with you,I've never met the man nor know him personally but I enjoy his style, his subtle as a brick in the mouth opinions and direct attitude, and lets not forget that he has indeed posted some very helpful threads too.

Have to agree that is bloody pathetic. You were not adverising your car just informing us you were a traitorous dog by going Italian!

[t1blk]

I had a feeling I'd spoken too soon. It is very annoying to have had this done, it is no different to a thread I posted a couple of months ago saying farewell to the TVR guys and letting them know where my car was advertised.

[michael gould]

i have sent the following reply to piston heads

"I think you have over reacted ...At no time did I discuss price condition or have a link to my advert.......the thread was purely about saying I have decided to move on from Aston Martin ownership. As I have left, more than 1000 posts on the Aston Martin forum I believe it was not an unreasonable thread.........I am very disappointed."

Absolutely no chance. He has the skin of a rhino - and probably the horn to match !!

Bit trigger happy of the mods to remove. My first reaction was to think why had he not posted a link to his advert ??

I can always haunt him on the Masser forum - betcha I can move those topics off thread quicker than on the AM forum. I'm as thick on Massers as I am on Astons !!

Anyway, I'm still a bit tender and emotional at the moment

[michael gould]

still love you Jockman....besides I havn't purchased a Maser yet or sold the Aston

[yeti]

The Maserati is a fine car Michael, I enjoyed my time with the brand and the owners are a great bunch, I still meet up with a lot of then.

The GT is the only car I'd consider along with an Aston and is the only one that makes sense with a need for back seats.

Best of luck with the sale and purchase and do drop in to say hello and spread your wisdom and add to the list every now and again

From what I can see from the report is that the reason for removal was the following:-



Sorry but you are not allowed to plug so sales.

Wasn't a lot left of the post TBH.

Buy all means raise a thread and say farewell....just leave out the stuff about the car, no silly offers and the like.
