Dictatorships are familiar ALL over the world. I was referring to Dictatorships as a generic not a specific thing. Sorry if you associated the words German and Dictatorship........not meant.

Could you tell us after so famously declaring "Northern Soul Is Dead", why you suddenly say, its your passion and your thinking of returning to it? Has it, indeed risen from the deep grave you tried to bury it in? this is an interesting historical fact that younger members or maybe Jayne might like to know? mmmmmmmmm? ANYONE?

off topic - deleted

Well put, Phil. May I just point out that most of the people on here are nice people and perfectly reasonable and civil. I stress the word "MOST". And I am determined to be civil too. While the children scream and rant in the background. Thats because you send the uncivil stuff privately eh Ian. ? You really are a see through joker writing stuff about being civil.

hello dear Phil How are you today ?? How's Kim ?? When are we having that meal ?? What were your favourite tracks off "Northern Soul 2008" now you've played it a few times ???? "Queen Of Fools" comes to mind.

And now, please leave me out of your crusade or whatever your mission is. I'm neither on your side nor Ian Levines side. I'm just lurking and keeping my fingers crossed that this thread will go back to interesting stories about the days of the Mecca. thats the point, you get outraged by stuff that isn't there and then want to continue talking to a threatening, abussive man like Levine. Its not a FREE DEBATE if he send threats...SO why are you keen to keep it going?

No I dont listen to much Motown.

It was a personal and private comment to someone on facebook and was not intended for this forum. I would never have been so publicly scathing of Adi Croasdell, no matter what I feel inside, because, despite our past differences, I do have some respect for him, although none at all for the person who posted my private comments. Personal and private...you sound like a politician....you pretend to be Mr nice and get SO upset and offended, like a little boy who spat the dummy, over people who disagree with you, and whilst posting on here how shocked and upset you are at peoples behaviour and complainingg to the site about me, you send Sh-t like that to James. YOU Mr Levine are a manipulator , you have shown it in your duplicitous behaviour and manipulative use of this forum.

I apologise Pete...that is true... Your part of the crew then?

You really do sound silly. Why don't you go and contact the authorities - it might keep you from posting on here for a while. Do you really think the "authorities" would be interested in your complaint? Your sense of irony seems to be lost within your deep love for Ian mate... Like ALL of his crew, you lack any humour, perspective or subtlety... You do sound silly

OUTRAGEOUS and Mark Has no comment on human decency with this one...ha! Joker

Watch it Pete or ill send you a private threat. I only want positive posts about me on here...clear!

Ian sent me this email this morning. You really are a fucking pest. Now you got my thread closed down altogether. You think it's all a joke and everyone likes you really. You are fucking with everything that I believe in. Therefore you are making an enemy for life. And you ARE a fascist. WHO THE f*** DO YOU THINK YOU ARE to tell me how I should make my music, how my sound should be rougher, where I'm going wrong. That, added to Croasdell's BAREFACED lies make me wanna hurl. I want you to stay away from that thread. I don't want to read your shit, I have no interest in you, I wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire, your taste in music is of no interest to me, I don't want to exist in a world where I have to deal with cockroaches like you. NOW f*** OF AND STEER CLEAR, YOU c***. I am now deleting you as a friend. I don't want any association with a c*** like you in any way, shape, or form. I think Ian, you need to realise that when you participate on a forum, where debate is encouraged, you need to be able to accept critisism without hating the person who critisises. You need to understand the rules of the forum you are taking part in, and realise that emails like this in response to posts are against forum rules. They damage the community and undermine the foundations of what makes this place so special. Still cant believe people on here are prepared to have a go at trivia and says nothing on this crap......Im thinking of cantacting the authorities on this one...

I was talking about Levine, so maybe question your own thoughts Pete...

Levine and his (pathetic ) bully boys seem to be trying to control this forum via threats.....the man (mmm?) has shown his true colours and they are not those of fairness and debate. Spoilt and aggressive behaviour such as sending threats should NOT be tolerated and certainly has nothing to do with the scene I am a part of. James why dont you get the police involved on both threats,? Its a crime to send such things ( i work for Youth Offending and just checked!) Levine is always threatening libel, hes overstepped the mark here,. Report him and sad Gavin to the Police...please.

See, hey Gavin, why dont you go F--k yourself mate. Im sick of these wimpy bully boys...nowt to do with soul. Feel free to PM or facebook me Gav...you Knob. "You will be dealt with."..joker

Thats sh-te. If someone is threatened as the result of a thread, its an issue for the site and the person sending threats should be banned. So, keep your German system and sensibilities mate. If there was NO consequensce to private threats as a result of on site debate, there would be no on site debat.e only a threatening dictatorship....sound familiar mate?

I've had loads of threatening/abusive emails since I've been on here, some for just hating The Carstairs record - you wouldn't believe it, honestly. I've never printed any of them though.

NOW f*** OF AND STEER CLEAR, YOU c***. I am now deleting you as a friend. I don't want any association with a c*** like you in any way, shape, or form. Isn't this the true Levine showing his colours.........He can f--k right off, now im on this thread for life...what totally fascist behaviour.

Well pete, if people ask questions inspired by this forum and Levine doesn't like them or answer them, its got EVERYTHING to do with this site. They are giving Levine the platform to field questions , choose reply's and send private threats! Pretty simple Pete..
