A little Moan about CAG

BASFORDLAD

They have stopped me from posting on there because i recommended someone use baliffonline as they needed urgent advice

Why on why do they need to have a hissy fit about doing this sort of thing?

Well i think that will be the last time i bother about posting on there. It just seems very childish

I posted there once I think and that was it, can't be bothered with them as they are on a power trip half the time

Doesn't help anyone if we walk away though.

...just send things to revelant people via PM service.

Sorry, I realise what you are saying RENEGADE, but I gave up on there a while back - they are a tad touchy and very full of their own importance. I can't be doing with it.

I gave up with CAG for the same reason a year ago. Then they said they would actually allow links to MSE and 'other forums' and denied ever banning such links even though I had pm's to prove otherwise.

So I posted again for about 2 weeks until an annoying Board Guide had a go at me for daring to post a link to pepipoo. He said they see them as rivals or a threat or some such codswallop to that effect.

CAG is the most useless forum for parking advice anyway! It has for many years peddled some utterly rubbish responses telling people to pay tickets, missing obvious and well-known technical appeals re Council tickets, like Hounslow's flawed PCNs. Not properly informing people about simple stuff like loading/unloading exemptions for Council tickets.

Not a patch on pepipoo for Council tickets and not a patch on this MSE forum for private ones.

I think MSE and Pepipoo has the right idea, we link to each other when needed, its not some bloody competition on who offers what advice, only that the people receive the right information when asked. Pepipoo offers the best advice on council tickets hands down, and its free like here

Have to say i regularly post on cag and here, i have also joined pepipoo forum as well.
I thought we were all after the same thing.

Wish they were...:)

Wait till you dare to post a pepipoo link on CAG!

It was a struggle even getting that. We were first told that they would't allow it because it was "touting" for another site, and I personally got a couple of nasty little emails from one of their mods about it. Eventually they relented and allowed it.
