Because of this, I guess John Hyam lost the passion to post on a sport he's loved for decades. Sad really. It's more than a year since your post moxey63. Sadly things IMO have NOT changed for the better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Especially, it seems, if you are elderly like John. It is his treatment that was instrumental in my cutting back drastically on my time on this Forum. I have other things to do now. So it is immaterial to me what anyone thinks. An excellent summary of BSF matters TWK! Well said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They may stick to one SECTION (such as "Years Gone By"), but that doesn't mean you have to post and repost the same information in multiple threads.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
racers and royals 8,736 Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) Am i imagining things but didn’t a certain John Hyam Esq say he was quitting Facebook for good ?? I have just noticed that he joined the old time speedway group on May 18th !! Edited May 23, 2022 by racers and royals Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What happened in the matter you refer to was my membership went into a TEMPORARY LAPSE and need to be reinstated, Fair enough- so you haven’t quit Facebook for good then ?

chunky 6,097 Posted May 24, 2022 Guess what? After promoting "Look, it's all about me!" again, someone has started deleting posts again... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure no one else would mind. I'll tell you, as one of the only people on here who has tolerated him - and constantly tried to help him - I have just about had it. I just can't understand someone of his age acting like a 10-year-old, breaking every rule in the book, and making everything about HIM. If I did delete this thread 1) it would make me like him, and 2), he would troll all the other threads trying to make them all about him... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
