Unfortunately we have had to ban Yorkie from this forum.
With lots of experience in the trade, and as an ex-councillor, he has a lot of knowledge and wisdom to offer forums such as this, but sadly he also has a destructive streak which anyone who has followed his history on such sites over the years will be well aware of.
As well as constant defamatory claims about this website on here, his latest wheeze is to join another forum using my past forum monicker (Dusty Bin) and then showering abuse at me.
Our action is by no means unprecedented, since the same has happened to Yorkie on several other forums in the past, and the only difference this time is that we have been a lot more tolerant of him, until now.
Since there are several of other taxi forums available now, Yorkie can post what he likes about us on them, and since at least one of these forums seems to consist mostly of false and misleading claims about this site and its admin, then he should have no trouble fitting in there.
Clearly any readers of TDO who want to keep up with Yorkie's views can continue to access them on the other forums.
With some of the worst troublemakers having been banned from this forum, we now hope to go forward with the emphasis on quality discussion rather than quantity.
Just like taxi licensing should be as well
