Labelling other drivers sh*t, especially with reg no.s
Discussion
Can we ban this pastime?
Its tiresome, unneccasary and so subjective that its useless. What are they trying to do? Prove what a great driver they are by slating someone else?
You can a spot bad driving - well done. You think it only happens to you?
Further, there have been instances lately where partial or whole number plates have been listed. Whats that about?
Are we supposed to hate that person based on someones say-so?
If its that bad, report it. If youve reported it, why post it here?
If nothing else, it would put an end to the set-your-watch-by-it onslaught every April of "Bloody bikers" threads, then the tired old arguing between the two parties.

Yeah those threads rock.
In this world of having a sub forum for a lot more things, surely one is needed, one called simply E/N.
The sub forum that posters get to tell the world stuff that means Everything to them, and Nothing to everyone else.
Move that crap to that sub forum.

Hmmm... I've had a look and there do seem to be quite a few about at the moment.
Part of the problem is that they tend to generate a lot of responses (from both the pro- and anti- sides) which stops them dropping off the top of the forum.
I don't want to ban it completely but I'll have a word with the mods and see if we can start dishing out a few padlocks in the worst cases.
(or maybe move them to the advanced driving forum....
)
