TaxiForums.co.uk, The Taxi Drivers Forum
The forum for taxi drivers in the UK!

i've just gone back through and found the original post on there, and its under guest which i'm assured was by someone off here, and im also assured it was them that brought it to light and highlighted it in other various places aswell. and not the forum to which you refer.

seems you didnt mind nick  [JD] when they were actively promoting your site and getting you new members each month . look how your site membership as slowed down 
gone very quiet your site now asn't it since you wrote [allegedly] the info used by the NCC. seems you are a popular man and very much in demand in some quarters [allegedly] 

even in a meeting in Carlisle regarding your witch hunt you were being laughed at by the licensing and association members there.

I do not mind if you call me JD, I could have a little practice at being nasty , it seems as if the people that post are now being looked at as if they are a commodity everybody seems to be protective and even obsessively controlling, I wonder why .

controlling as in what

Pete. I was not referring to this forum in particular, on this forum I am Nick. I believe that as an adult we all have the right to choose where and when we post, and I also believe that there is no real harm in trying to attract new members, if the site is good people will stay, if it is crap then bye-bye. spin the penny and see where it falls.

Thanks BS... not quite what I had in mind

yes there was a breakdown in the relationship through anonymity. i understand why JD feels the need for this. but it was causing problems through word of mouth in the wrong circles. there was accusations flying around from various sides.

we promoted TDO for probably the best part of 18months to 2 years, and when we were looking at stats going from www.taxi-today.com we realised just how much was been generated in traffic between the sites. a forum was always planned and i did mention to Alex on TDO about taking them under www.taxi-today.com where we could get all the traffic under one banner by directing TDO's traffic by way of redirecting / forwarding it on to ours. and splitting the advertising revenue between us all. it wasn't long after we discussed this that there was a breakdown in the relationship mainly in point to the Carlisle issue raised by JD. to do with the station rank. this was when i was getting various phone calls from LO's trade associations and a Union in Manchester saying under hand tactics had been used. it was about a week later i  and Wayne casey  were accused of following JD's associate from my home address after collecting a payment for the work JD had done for Editorial in the Feb issue of Taxi-Today. apparrently JD's associate recognised Wayne Casey in a following vehicle. but Wayne Casey was in Scotland which he can prove as he was on a job,  he was doing a job for Virgin trains after the accident which closed down the north west rail line when the virgin train crashed. I can understand why he as a need for anonymity but its caused so many problems its a shame theres a need for it.

if any of the above is wrong i'm sure Wayne and Nick [JD] can put their piece in to give their spin on it.
