One last thought. Every now and again I read threads about discourtesy, bullying, rudeness, etc, but once a comment has been made, you cannot simply wipe it out of ones mind, pretend it never happened or erase it like a misspelt word. Maybe members would be wiser and bolder to think beforehand before they start typing because the lasting implications against the forum and the individual it's aimed at could leave an imprint long-term. Whereas some can take comments on the chin, others are less fortunate.
Very very wise words indeed Mark, well said  :coolsmiley:

As the others have said you need to make sure you and your family take priority.

I just wanted to say thank you again for the advice you gave me on my silver streak last year and for your site. I hope you get all you need to sorted Mark :daumenhoch:

Like so many others have said, sorry for your loss Mark and it's a shame your closing the site but understandably your priorities are now very different.
You'll be missed on the scene as your knowledge on all things DB was simply second to none, all the best with your future.

Sad to see the site go too  :'(
I was a member on there since 2008 was my 1st bmx forum :4_17_5:
As never had any intrest in other brands as i owned a silverstreak back in 82
Used to be a mod on there  for a few years, to be fair very little work as 99% of the members
Were sound as a pound . & db of the month too ...
The little work i done i even found it time consuming at times .
Took a backseat for a while done me good . Lost the love happens to everyone at some stage !!
will miss the site for info , friends , spec & great threads .
As mark says never say never ?
A break is as good as a rest .
Not sure i can do that face book thing as tried to avoid it all these years  :LolLolLolLol:
But never say never ....
Thanks again mark for a number 1 forum  :)
