Having known him on line for about 12 years on another forum and having met him, I wonder if he will reappear here after he flounced off.

Did you need to wear sunglasses to shade your eyes from the glow of awesomeness?

Bit like this?

Personally I thought he was fine. Like STWs very own Stuart Baggs/Alan Partridge hybrid.

But until the bitter litte boys with a chip the size of a planet get off this forum, that isn't going to happen - it'll be sniping, constant attempts to trip me up, utterly pathetic little snipes.

Indeed. ๐Ÿ™‚

Ah yes.

My first STW flounce. It wasn't particularly memorable, but it was good. Nothing like a know-it-all getting called out for his misguided knowledge.

I'll have a dig around another forum I used to frequent and see if "The Moose's" flounce thread is still there. She was spectacular, flouncing and reappearing on such a regular basis they named a subforum after her.

Hope not. Cock a doodle dooooo...... (as in strutting rooster rather than silly name calling). It normally takes about 3 post to go from sensible debate to horrible, personal insults usually with SM as the bestist/fastest/greatest bestowing his awesome knowledge on the 'feeble geeks' he deigns to share Internerd space with. If he is so awesome and everyone else so feeble, why?

Classic compensation for low self esteem... ๐Ÿ™‚

He voiced an opinion and the usual [s]gobshites[/s] suspects roared in raising their voices until he flounced off.

Seems to be getting more common on here these days. Agree with the hive mind or you will be ridiculed into oblivion. Definitely getting less pleasant on here.

Tactical withdrawal- yes, flounce- never.

Some people are very, very convinced they are completely correct, and very prone to believing that anyone who doesn't agree with them is questioning their manhood. These people tend to congregate on driving threads. ๐Ÿ™‚

I agree with surfmats approach.Then again i am not the sort of person to pull over and slow my journey down just to let idiots get to where they are going any quicker.If i am going the speed limit, i will keep to it.I will never stop to let someone past when they are already breaking the limit. who all on here stops in the nearest layby to let faster drivers past?

I took a diffrent approach a few weeks ago to a tail gater. I picked up my car,left the MOT station and was driving along under the 30mph speed limit when a white van tears up behind me with dodgy headlights. At first i thought it was one of the guys from the garage playing around but i noticed it wasnt when we had to stop at a roundabout. I carried on and the guy was about 10ft from my bumper,pulling slightly out to the right of our lane from time to time.I lost it.. indicated..slowed down and got out. screamed "get off my F****** bumper...OK?!"

he raised his hands in a "what am i supposed to do" jesture. i got in the car,continued the journey (still in the 30 zone) and he continued to do it. he soon pulled off down a side road.

So i leave a garage, take 2 turns through a town and then this happens. wtf? lol.

seems a decent guy. Ok, so successful in life, likes to talk about his 'stuff' when the opportunity arises, but still a sensible head. Compassionate about kids and problems some parents have with young 'uns. Also gave me some very useful technical advice.

never met him

he can only mention some of his awesome exploits because he's done them, unlike, I suspect, many of the derelicts who hound him. a lot of big jealous kids around this interweb thing.

Yeah I sort of figured they were either trying to hard or I just didn't get the joke. Either way, not my finest moment

But not everyone feels the need to shout from the rooftops about everything, then argue black is white and then resort to silly insults when people don't comply....

@Jamie, hmmm you could be right. I just don't like strutting, 'me, me, me' poseurs...

what BD said he had a certain ability to fail to see what a complete fool he came over on some threads -no idea re this thread as I avoid car threads. Bit insecure hence the need to show of his body beautiful and tell us all how succesful he was. Often rude then got upset when people were rude to him- self awareness was certainly not his strong suit

On a different car thread a week or so ago I made some comments and stated that I fully expected to have a petrol head shouting abuse at me shortly

Indeed that is exactly what surf matt did.

His issue is he can give it out but not accept it. He dishes out loads of abuse to folk who don't agree with him but goes apoplectic if anyone dare question him or his lifestyle at all.

Too much has happened in the time I've been away.

BigDummy is back - hooray
Awesome Matt has flounced - hooray.
The Southern Yeti has been unbanned - hooray.

Not deliberately, it's a small group of folk who have known each over in real life and online for years. New folk will get ribbed but if they have the right attitude they will be fine.
