Faith in the forum dented III
Dirty Gertie:
--- Quote from: "muckmoses" --- no-one said Mud club caused the trouble last year.
The complaint we received concerned drunken, abusive, racist, threatening, aggressive behaviour and foul language. We do not know who these guys were but campers should not have to put up with that.
It is always a few who spoil it for the many!!!

Taking the above into consideration, I think the original posting here was perhaps somewhat ill-considered, and a general apology might be a good idea.
Smego:
I am suprised any mud clubber would bother to support this event again given that original posting!
muckmoses:
Maybe you guys should try reading our 2 posts again. You all seem to be missing the bit that clearly states "WE DON'T KNOW WHO CAUSED THE TROUBLE LAST YEAR!"
And while we're on the subject we couldn't do anything about it sooner because we only found out last week when we received a booking form containing a letter of complaint instead of a cheque!

Exactly; I did understand, and in fact quoted, that from your partner's post. Despite that, you still felt the need to post it here, and you originally said
--- Quote ---The first time it was caused by Mud Club members, who I will not name but you can search the forum and you will see them bragging about how they got so drunk they fell under tables and stayed there.

Hence my comments above. If there was a problem in 2005, it should have been raised then, not 2 years later, in retrospect and due the behaviour of an apparently unrelated group of people.
The fact that the complainants did not see fit to raise their grievance at the time tells me that this is something they have stewed over, and perhaps magnified it in their minds.
For the sake of peace and enjoyment for all concerned, might I suggest ear plugs for the 'quiet-nighters' ? :)

it seems that mountains may have been made out of molehills a tad, and its in fear of marring a good social event!!
its right to say that antisocial behaviour is not acceptable in any situation, but antisocial behaviour needs to be addressed at the time and the appropriate action taken. not deliberated over a year after the event!!
i realise that moses has only just found about it but its too late to do anythin about it now. no need to suggest that people should go to peterborough if theyre goin to get drunk and rowdy. if it happens deal with it then. we are all adults afterall!! its like my mum tellin me not to get drunk if i go to the pub!! lol
and for the record.... drumclog was also a great event and we did party into the wee hours and everyone had a good laugh with miniman and his song. as i remember it was one of the organisers that was the last to go to bed. again... were all adults and have the freedom of choice!!
and i was used as the table in JW's group... but only cos i was in the wrong place at the right time for someone to rest his beer on my back!! lol
theres enough doom and gloom in the world for us not to let it enter into our social lives and stop us enjoying ourselves. were on this earth for a good time not a long time so make the most of it!!
