Any one on two wheels is a friend

I'm not hanging out with consumers, i'm hanging out with and speaking to fixed gear cyclists from around the country that have ALL expressed the same opinion, not a single person has said anything other than this is an unfriendly place. I'm not confusing anything with anything else, I worked in community development for years, I know exactly how minorities (not ethnic!) negatively affect the majority.

"You have clearly missed a shit load of good things people have done here.
Campaigning, fundraising, organising events, supporting people in times of sickness, helping with accommodation, social support, offering of services etc" You're right, I have missed it for the exact reason I have stated in previous post, because some people here are so abusive that it makes people leave and rarely come back...
mmm, am i missing something but isn't it the LONDON fixed-gear and single-speed forum?! the people out of the city don't talk/integrate with the people directly. if you met the people face to face, all of what goes on as banter on the forum is nullified.

there is a difference between real-life and online life. if you are part of the scene you understand it. those who are not, imho can't fully comment.
