I’m pretty confident that none of them are. Both have their logins and can browse if they wish - I’ve had some dialog before and they didn’t wish....

Where in Scotland are you based?
Thanks all,

I'm in Perth, enjoy some nice roads around here.

Joined the Evo forum back in uni, some 20 years ago. My old man had a GT3 in 2005 and I've been milking it ever since.

Rebuilt a Caterham ex-Academy car over winter, and when summer eventually kicks in, looking forward to some exciting miles, maybe some Knockhill trackdays too.
You see, a thread on your rebuild would have been marvelous. :cry:
That. And if you are going to Knockhill track days you will inevitably trip over @scotta and @Nefarious .

We need to have a lurkers amnesty, where we all agree that they won't get any stick for a period of time if they start getting involved (we'd probably have to ban Broccers for that period). :D

Are we still allowed to dish it out though? :lol:

I'm absolutely positive it would! More posters, better community.

The problem is its a bit like crack cocaine for them. If you look at their post counts - Rev is still top despite not being on here for nearly 12 months and JL is still fifth despite being absent since October 2019!

Both suggestive that they weren't able to participate without getting way too sucked in. Cold turkey is definitely the best way.

TBF I was just joking, I don't think either of them would go to the effort of making sock accounts to stalk the forum :lol:

Following a text discussion with @Maurice last night, I found myself reading this thread

Which became far more amusing with the posts from member 6667. If he isn’t an inactive poster on here - with that approach - he clearly should be. :lol:

I was talking to JL yesterday. I doubt he's even lurking here any more. I was having a phone contact clean up and came across Trany's (remember him) number. Wonder what he's up to these days?
