The Volvo owners club? Useful?

More like a joke if you ask me! At least it's amusing. But useful - err, no.

Looks like there is an agenda to discredit the VOC site which is the most successful and most established Volvo based forum in the UK with a huge commited following. The forums have gained two thousand members in the last two months and there are nearly 200,000 posts on the forum. No other Volvo UK club forums have the resources that the VOC forums have.

2000 new members in the last 2 months? Surely there aren't that many old volvo's around?

It appears to be doing a perfectly good job of discrediting itself, because several members on there have already said that they will not be renewing their membership because of a minority of idiots on there. Let me give you some examples (I will use their usernames) -

Bobcat - If anyone disagrees with him, then they must be wrong. Then big arguments ensue. Then it all goes pear shaped. Every time.

Adieu - This guy only knows how to press CTRL C followed by CTRL V, as all he ever does is copy and paste silly quotes and other nonsense.

IC - Anyone who's defintion of Nirvana is a Sunny afternoon at the Crooked Billet talking performance Volvos watching people share their enthusiasm for their cars, clearly hasn't had a blow job.


can i add a my view on some members:

spode - cowardly person that hides his identity behind multiple usernames, like to pose a different people and stir up trouble.

Had any turbo's fall of this week spode?

What resources would these be then i joined seeking sensible advice only to get no help and then after an offer of discount from my own business i just got a load of personnal abuse if they have gained two thousand members in two months either they are making them up or there are a lot of idiots with no idea out there.Having sat and read some of the posts on that forum i have to agree completely with what Spode has to say and it would seem that blobcat and adidas are a pair of immature idiots with nothing better to do than waste eveyone elses time talking complete bollox the sooner people like these stop posting on forums and let people have their own opinions and views the better!!!!Lots of love and kisses Chinese Bob x x

2000 members in 2 months, WOW.

What did you people do.....walk round an old peoples home and take names ?
Who would want to join a group of self riteous, rotting up hill gardeners that are as blinkered as shergar?
You people make me laugh, i decided to look through some posts on the site having never been on it before, it seems to revolve around the same people in the so called performance section, the rest is a waste of space by the way, blobcat who is the ultimate keyboard coward, and his merry men dancing round like puppets with a rod up thier back. no wonder people think volvo owners are old grey and miserable, THEY ARE.

Glad to see im getting to you lot!!! - Makes my posts on VOC so much more worth it!!

As mentioned on VOC, some of us so called performance "puppets" will be at avon park raceway in march:

www.volvo-tech.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=132

your all more than welcome to turn up and then we can see who really are the keyboard cowards!!!

you could even bring some of your (let me just stop laughing first) big turbo cars along with you and show us all how its done.

Unfortunately for piston heads you lot seemed to have decended on this forum with your bull and dream figures, but at least we have managed to drive away you deranged volvo owners from VOC.

carry on as you were....

hope to see you all at avon.
