I am sad that the enjoyment of those involved with organising the GTG and those attending has been diminished by this thread...

Group pic or a few mug shots, with or without the cars would be great next time I for one would appreciate it, to share an event I wasn't at as much as not attending can.
I must say I thought the response to Grahams first post was somewhat of an overreaction. I didn't read any malice into the post whatsoever and thought it a perfectly reasonable observation.
I can understand how it could have been misinterpreted though.
We seem to have a bit of a sensitive crowd around here at the moment.
Graham230K said:I know people have and make friends on the forum, but an "event" thread that consists purely of a build up and planning, then thanks and graces without so much as a few pics, be it cars or members is a bit of a non-event for the forum don't you think? Sounds more and more like a private party.

As for the lack of photos, all I can say is if you want photos then join a camera club.
I am simply replying to your posts..I do however instantly tire when you resort to your mode of posting that consists of underlying sarcasm and digs, use of phrases like this administrator and saying private event what must just be for the sake of prolonging your state of umbrage.
Thank you,Would you prefer that we just lock this thread, end this silly nonsense and then you'll have no more to complain about John?
It is afterall only THIS thread that you'll be posting in from now on.
Personally I think its a shame you have to continually get upset but perhaps as you say, its for the best.
You have then had ample opportunity to apologise for what was hopefully a very poorly ill thought out remark, but instead of that, you have done your usual thing and lashed out... it does not impress and it certainly does not intimidate.
I
A GTG is not about taking pictures (I personally HATE having my picture taken) A GTG should be a social event where like minded folks shoot the breeze and have a very enjoyable experience... My family do EVERYTHING within their power to fulfil those ambitions...
I have no opinion either way and am only responding to points that I deem relevant.That wasnt the option John. Your responses are far better left for all to see.
Happy to lock the thread if you wish though.

As Graham has said we will just agree to disagree
I acknowledge your stance is you feel pictures if they were to be taken at the GTG you host, would be detrimental to the enjoyable experience, such that it is unreasonable for the forum to have expected any.
I totally, totally see your point of view, as do a lot of other members, you have made your point of view crystal clear.Will you acknowledge, I like to see event pictures, I think event pictures contribute to the forum greatly by giving EVERY member something rather than just those who chose/were able to attend your GTG and that while it may not be your opinion, it was not an idea from another planet? I maintain, my view, is that so far as the forum members not there are concerned, it was like a private party as we have nothing to see of it. Read that statement with the innocence it was intended, please.
We needn’t agree, this isn’t a ruling of whether GTG’s must have pictures, I just don’t see why you are not able to see another’s point of view. Can we agree to have acknowledged each others views and opinions on this and let it be?
I definitely get it..Why are you shouting?
From your response its clear that you still don't get it John.
