My van is finnished, a very accurate represntation of the austin fx4 dormobile van.

I'm not seriously accepting that into the contest. I'm sorry, but you will not make a mockery of out of our monthly competitions just because you're at odds with another member here "stealing" your ideas. How someone can steal "your" ideas when you're replicating cars that have already been raced is beyond me.

I fail to see the humor in this. If it hadn't been submitted as an actual entry, maybe I would.

This being the "entry" in question:

Ironically the joke really would have been on you- if it hadn't been for the responses on this thread I wouldn't have even looked at it until next month when I set up the poll.

Meh.
Bangerkid liked it! :D

EDIT: What is actually wrong with it? It's a van, it's painted as a team, it should be a valid entry?

first thing wrong with it - it's a truck, not a van. It's got a caravan on the back and a car on top of that, and who knows why you stuck a taxi on the front

No, it's most definitely a 'no'.

And that's the last word on this subject.

I've decided to give something new a try- I'm organizing the Crash Car Raceway section into it's own forum in a forum. Trying to keep things better organized.

If this doesn't work out I'll put everything back into one category. But let's try this for a few weeks and see if it works.

Tbh lewis, and i dont care if anyone replies / deletes / whatever's this as its the truth, most of the forum would rather you werent here, sadly some of us have had to deal with you, and im glad swifty took the right steps in banning you from trading here.

Yes i was taking the piss with my competition entry, but the people who relplied in my thread knew that aswell. Im pretty sure if we held a vote, should we ban lewis, we'd have a fair few votes for yes, but the "kind" people here would vote no so you can stay.

You're already banned from diecast drive in, because you messed people around, wes wills from ovalchat / Racetrack replicas even said your a messer, and he deals with a lot of people. I dont think you've made one post contributing to this forum properly yet, and aswell as trying to insult myself / brian / Bangerkid45 / others VIA msn and PM on other forums isnt really a nice thing to do.

If you left tommorow, i dont think anyone would care.

And thanks Brian for backing me up.

And contributing to the nastyness, he called me some very nasty stuff on MSN, ( about my religion), and i truely truley think he should be banned, he annoys, cheats, and just truley makes his board a not so (Freindly) place to visit, even when my friend came over to my house, he asked( whos is typing all of this nonsence?)

So from my point of view i think Diecastmaniac should be banned from this board.

We don't ban. Read the board's rules.

Secondly, he hasn't broken any of the board rules. There is nothing in the board rules about 'not annoying people'. And if there was, Zotez would have been off here with that last competition entry.

You have a right to not like one another. But you don't have the right to tell me to start banning people just because they annoy you.

He's not allowed to sell, and I won't let him reply to his models thread any more without pics, as I stated in my post last night. That said, Zotez is creating more problems by stirring the pot than he is.

If you don't like my descisions, I can live with that. But I'm respectfully asking everyone to refrain from posting about this matter any more.

these last few days have really peed me off. Been non-stop constant childish bickering/behavior from a certain few members....I understand it's the summer holidays and all but I expect a certain degree of maturity from people who post on here.

I am sorry that you got scammed zotez but enoughs enough. Frankly I couldn't care less any more as you keep bringing it up. You got models in some sort of compensation from a kind hearted member on another board yet you still insist on bringing it up? Childish, selfish, silly behaviour if you ask me. As for your 'competition' entry, well that just reinforces my view that you are nothing but a little kid who a) needs to get out more and b ) needs to grow up.

And all you coathangers who follow him, stop. I thought better of you lot, I really did

I only stood up for DCM once cause Zotez was bashing him on a thread if you are refering to me Mookie. I'd agree with Sean,it's time to move on. If you don't like what someone posts on here, ignore them and don't reply to their posts.


I really like the banger models you guys across the pond do so I hope this does not affect your posting of them as a result over this.

If your not refering to me Mookie, then no big deal. B)


EDIT: I dont condone what DCM might have said on here or on other boards. Just did not appreciate the tone Zotez used in his reply. I wont post on this subject again.

Which is what I was meant when I said he was stirring the pot. He's got people worked up over this. And that's where I draw the line. I don't force people to like one another. But if you're posting here you have to play by the board's rules.
