I asked a while back where Randy was and got no reply. The original source of his discontent was predictably short lived and went away and things are as they were previously, except no Randy.

???

And, while on the subject, what happened to andyb?

Randy is alive and well. I see him on Facebook with some frequency.

FYI.

RPM is certainly sponsoring the UK FJ forum hosting services. An RPM banner is on the forum, and there is a thread informing everyone. :)

Like the only kid in the neighborhood that owns a ball...

When the game didn't go his way, he threw a fit, took the ball & went home.

so when a senior member, fellow fj rider and friend to all the members of the forum takes exception with some questionable content and subsequently takes a hiatus, he's free game for sniping?  randy and rpm deserve better treatment than this.  by way, i'm not bagging on anyone in particular, just the direction this thread is taking.

Assuming this was a typo and should have been "...went to TAKE a shit..."

I reckon I had it pretty close to begin with, but the initial post was an inquiry into the whereabouts of two members, so I modified it slightly to accomodate.

Randy is not MIA to me, he responds to my emails when he can (generally the same day or same hour, like today). I know he is busy building his RPM business to support his family and that can mean many different aspects and directions. If you need parts, then order them, if you need is advise or input, call or email him. My personal experience with Randy and his son at RPM is excellent customer support, supply and down to earth good people.

I agree.  Lets reverse the issue. You politely decide to get away for awhile because of some content or displeasure and I come on line (perhaps I haven't even met you or know your circumstances) and start sniping or commenting about you?  Would that be called for?  

I count Randy as a friend and if he is ever in my area and needs something I would hope to be on his list of someone to call.  I hope he actively gets back on the forum and if there is anything I can do to help I will.  :drinks:

I am a member from short while and I don't know what is going on behind the scene but....

For Randy topic with girls was problematic.
I can assume that there is some relation between connecting to forum with motorbike photos and with forum with ,,other content".
Visit such a website leaves traces and suggest that computer user likes visit this kinda websites. It can be very bad for RPM website. Or for him..... Or..... Options are endless.....

So we should accept that and just remove problematic topic. That will no harm anyone but will make happy one soul.

All for one, and one for all......

FYI, if you think your post might be questionable, then post it in the NSFW (Not Safe For Work) section. Any that have issues of this potential content can simply ignore the posts. Or simply find another forum to post that content.
