You need to speak to your old mate mike b, aka the scarlet pimpernel. We seek him here, we seek him there we seek him every blinking where....Else its a bit pointless
Thanks
Leigh
He is the moderator and has a box of stikkies.
Wee man.
[quote=TVRleigh(BBWR)]Maybe he should pass the box, to somone who is about more.

I've just spent 20 odd minutes writing a reply to this and then deleted it as I have high blood pressure and started to realise how much it was getting to me!!!!! So to cut a long story really short and in true Piston Head rant style, you have really BOILED MY PISS. Not only does it appear that you want The TVRWedgepages for free you now want to slag off Mikey as a moderator on this forum!!!!
Sorry it appears I have gone into another rant and i said I would keep it short so here it is..............
You cock!

You can report the post and we can sort, on here I see the following 4http://pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/forum.asp?h=0&...
Which one did you want sticky?
You should learn to read.
The first post asked if it could be made sticky.
2nd I have offered to give Mike money for the site. and have never asked to have it for free. Even if I was given it free I'd still have to pay for the running costs, for no personal gain, just so the information can be keeped for everyone.
Mike has stated he has lost some enthusiasm and does not have to time any more, so I cant see a problem with passing the moderator torch to somone else. but that totaly up to him.
At no time have I slaged him off, so trying to work out what your so worked up about.
Also you may have seen me bump a post for over a week for him to contact me after trying to PM him, and email him on the wedge pages email. to decuss in private.

1. Be assured I have lost none of my enthusiasm, I simply now own a Griffith instead of a BBW, however this may change and one day I might come back to my senses sooner rather than later!
2. Being one of the moderators of the Pistonheads Wedge forum (as there are other moderators as well!) has nothing to do with the time I have for the Wedgepages site. Even though I don't post that often, be assured I spend too many hours trawling the PH forums on a daily basis! (as do you according to your profile).
3. I have spent a huge amount of time and effort working on the Wedge site and I regard it as 'my baby' (however 'amateurishly' it may be put together - it was my first go at website design after all!).
I therefore would like it to go to somebody that I consider to be a worthy successor (the money although nice is largely immaterial). Reading through some of your many recent previous posts I think although you obviously have bucket loads of enthusiasm, it may be better if you start your own site from scratch...I am sure Rev, Cuneus and JR etc have plenty of articles to kick you off..
The Wedgepages will be off-line for a while until I can find the right person. In the meantime knock yourself out fella

Ps. I think Dicky can read just fine.

Especially between the lines 
Leigh - I refer you to your post last Thursday............
"Well I've finally got hold of him.
So will see what he say. If not will start again.
I could re-create very easy, but would like to get permission, and do a deal on the name as its well known.
I will be wanting some new stuff to go on what ever site. so will be in touch.
Thanks
Leigh"
So I would suggest that as you have contacted MikeB you may have your answer. Also since you have contact with MikeB you should keep all this crap off forum and private! Or maybe you are on some sort of "election campaign?"
As you say - you could re-create (tvrwedgepages) very easy - then crack on and I wish you well, but please do not re-create any of my photographs etc. as you do not have my permission.
Apart from standing by my earlier quote of calling you a cock I would like to amend that to weapons grade cock! Should you wish to discuss this further please do so offline as I have no inclination to continue with this on an open forum and apologise to Pistonheads if I have broken any of their rules.

Strange how somepeople that you knew at school are just the same now but others change over time. Even so I can't help feeling that an errant e-mail is not a road to Damascus type event:-
Lad buys wedge.
Enthusiastically he sets up a website.
Web site is liked and acts as a PH knowledge data base.
Someone says an off the cuff comment and the lad gets upset.
Web site goes offline.
Lad is hurt and want's some money, only from the right person though, otherwise:
