Thank you and fare thee well, Admin!

[James999]

I don't believe that's why redcab left, he had been sussed out by so many posters on Off-Topic and just called them all trolls or lefties, then stropped off.

Correct, he picked a fight lost, and finally realised people saw him as the old fool he was, and as such skulked off sulking into yesterdays copy of the daily mail, after all why pay for it when you can wait till one's left in the cab or cafe 

[James999]

Sorry Marmalade

But he ended up as a tosser of the highest proportions

Spot on, he totally lost touch with reality and became a sort of Harry Enfield character

[finn5555]

Well everyone’s entitled to an opinion. 

Marmalade he was alright until dementia kicked in 

[scutty brown]

Not to mince words, I thought JRC was a bullying obnoxious twat and I believe the forum benefits from his absence.
He may well have been a key character during the formative years of the forum, but in latter years he was just destructive, creating argument where there was no need. Good riddance.

TBH, I always thought he was some kind of comic parody ie. not for real in a million years.

[Marmalade]

Well when people are done and dusted and gone I selfishly prefer to remember their better qualities.
There again, I’m such a nice guy.

I see you’ve lost none of your wit James. Come to think of it, I’ve defended you quite often as well (including against JRC)... but I wonder what people would say about you when you’re gone? 

About the only longtime person who’s escaped criticism (or at least stayed to tell the tale) is OldAdmin.

But threads have a tendency, however positive they start, to develop into the negative. C’est la vie. 

[Bonker]

Is the new Admin the old Stig?

[Bonker]

I'm pretty sure JRC was Clarkson.

[Vivago]

Which one? Alf Git? With Nik being the other Old Git?

Many thanks Admin, best of luck in the future!

Many thanks to old admin and best of luck to the new team.

I’ve had a safe and enjoyable time since I started using this forum and I hope the standards continue to be raised.

Are you suggesting that the teething problems with the handover can all be attributed to someone trying to manage the site on one of these?

Funny thing that in real life he's not like that at all, and a bit of a fluffy when it came to girls

Yes, there was a certain young SP who he took rather a shine to, and I saw her too a couple of times. He was certainly a little smitten with her. She was the subject of the 'quickie-rate' débacle where he was accused (strictly-speaking, correctly) of advising her to increase her rate. To be fair, it wasn't quite that simple though.

After she disappeared off the scene it was a young Polish girl (MichelleIndependent?) and he saw her multiple times.

But his punting star was already waning and he bemoaned the lack of young English totty available to do his punting bidding. He got pretty grumpy over this, especially after being fucked over (rather than nicely fucked) by several unwilling/scamming Roms, and various others.

I think his grumpiness spilled over into his posts in other areas and bit by bit he let himself get drawn into arguments and yes, he was trolled and antagonised but he just couldn't let it go. His mate Nik came to his aid and then he got a kicking too. In the end it was both of them in a corner, taking on all-comers. I think it's a little sad that neither of them are here any more (having been here since year dot), and there's just too much water under the bridge.

More pertinently perhaps, I think to a great extent many of the more mature members here are reliving their youth a little with the punting, and at some point this inevitably ceases to be 'real'. That sadly, will come to us all eventually. There are one or two guys here who are into their 70s and 80s and still shooting the juice and loving it. They have my admiration (even though one of them is a habitual barebacker - although at his age and with no nooky at home, to a certain extent, why should he bother?)

[winkywanky]

Well of course, James is a virgin so that may appeal greatly 

[Brumish]

Wasn’t there another lass called Sofia or something that all the old brigade were drooling over? Think she was a member on here and someone took a real shine to her and made her quit the game. Jealous bastard couldn’t stand other wrinkly cocks rogering his prized possession 
I’m certain JRC was always harping in about her? I could be wrong though, I’ve shagged a few birds since then so memory is a tad hazy.

[James999]

I think the Sofia one could have been the Romanian "Seller of the Cunt" (or whatever the PC brigade change it to) who made up some story about being attacked by chavs, saying they attacked her with punnets of strawberries   

[winkywanky]

That'll teach her to go selling her wares in Wimbledon.

[finn5555]

 he was accused (strictly-speaking, correctly) of advising her to increase her rate. To be fair, it wasn't quite that simple though.

It was that simple he admitted doing it and said he would do it again

And much as I hate to say it about our founding father.

But as was or is NIK.

Sometimes your time is over and it's time to leave a new generation take over.

Good luck Boss1

And a massive thanks to Old Admin

[Sparta Prada]

The problem with the JRC debacle is he was a founding member of this site. A site created to look after the interests of punters; if I have got this wrong please correct me.

For a founding member to tell a WG to put her prices up was not in the interest of punters. To make things worse he admitted that he told the girl (Lisa In Wonderland?) to increase prices for everyone else but to keep her lower prices for him only. Once again, this is not looking after the interests of punters. He must have realised that there would be an almighty backlash to telling us all this, which inevitably followed.

But you have to ask why did he feel compelled to reveal this nugget of information? I think Jimmy ended up believing the JRC persona was more important than the forum he helped to get off the ground. As we have seen with Nik and OldAdmin, no individual is bigger or better than the site.

It’s easy to pick one or two things that people have said and use it to try to put them down.
To be honest if it’s wasn’t for the founders of the site we wouldn’t have a fantastic resource like this.

Yes they all bickered made mistakes, but to be honest I am sure we can find silly things people have said on here in the past. What frustrates me is that there is a core of people who continually bring up the same criticisms even though it happened years ago.

Yes things move on but I do have a lot of respect for the people who have made this site what it is today.

Stop looking back at the past and move forward on how we continue the legacy and make this site even better.

But this is just my opinion, what do I know??

Blimey, I didn't remember that bit? That's out of order. Unless his inference was that as he personally would book an hour with her, he wouldn't be affected by her increasing her rate for the shorter bookings (15 and/or 30mins)?

But if he just came flat out and said 'keep me on your old rates but put them up for others' then that's shitty.

I don't agree regarding NIK but then I have respect for him for taking that crucial decision to leave the punting forum we posted on to found UKP with old admins help. But the new generation in Head1 and his team have taken over and seem to be doing a good job so far in my book. Excellent modding as well.

I think he revealed that nugget of info when he posted complaining that following his advice to her she increased her prices for everyone else but also for him as well. I believe he expected sympathy.

Post 54 of that thread gives a good insight into how redcab viewed punters paying her old rate, cheap charlies. Well the WG presumably set the rate she was prepared to charge, so what was the problem. In the end she didn't keep him on her old rate anyway so ALL her punters had to pay more, about as far as the motto this site had for years, where the punter comes first in my book.

I totally agree, if however he is advising her to adjust her rates to make sure she offers a proper half hour service that isn’t restricted to a cum once policy. I can understand his reasoning.
But if he expects preferential treatment that is a down to the SP, but i certainly wouldn’t expect to get special treatment at a lower price.

Things change and evolve all the time. Things aren't better or worse now just different.

I think I joined the site about 6 months after you and what people forget and why some of the older members are suspicious is the amount of trolling was far worse than anything we get now often brasses posing as punters, it was also much more witty than the "I'm thinking of trying bareback" threads we have been treated to lately.

Really what made the site great was people like Nik, JRC, Smiths, Jacob, Cactus, Matty, James, Lurtz, Fishy, marmalade, cueball and a few others I've missed who brought knowledge and personality that many sites lacked.

Also I know a lot of threads get reported for abuse or mean comments, but you needed an even thicker skin back then. So if people think this site is mean now...

I'm glad to have been apart of it in what I think was the first year 2011 and I'm still glad to be sharing ideas, opinions and reviews.

Yes UKP was under sustained attack by many people who hated the idea of a real punters forum in the early years, there was a piss take forum set up by the dusty phone brigade that was a spectacular failure at hurting UKP. It expanded rapidly and more so under old admin. Vigilance is always needed as you know.

If you think about I wonder how many thousands of punters its helped locate good WGs and avoid bad ones. I view it as the 4th emergency service. Softlad was also a crucial early member and mod, King Nuts also a mod at one time for a while. Also Phil Atio who I met at LMP parties a number of times but literally disappeared overnight never to post again on here. And of course Steve2 who is still very much about on here I am glad to see who I have also met though some time ago now, top bloke.
