Well,
this is what i think.... all these fella's who says they'll wait and see from outside and see the changes before they join are all bull@#$%!. Why don't you join and make an active and positive contribution to make the changes happen....
Of course we need people like you to make it happen, but if you are just talk but no action, you are even worse than the ones you complaint about....
at least some of us joined, participate and contribute actively to make something out of the club. In fact, if you look closely, most activities are organised by the members themselves without waiting for the committee to do it for them....
Of course there are some of us official members who are not happy with the way the club is being run, the current committee etc.... but we are taking proactive measures to make the changes for the future.....
What about you forumers? can you say that you are doing anything? apart from, of course, complaining on the open forum...... are you paying up that small sum of money annually so that you can then make the difference....
on another note, listed companies publish their accounts, but not their minutes of meetings..... Societies like BMWClub, does not need to do so, the last I checked..... by the way, the club was created by a few enthusiasts which eventually got the endorsement of BMW, and then officially registered with the ROS. It is different from the Toyota or Nissan or Honda sponsored clubs.....
there, my more than 2 cents worth..... if you are not happy with what i write, you can come to TT and walk up to me and be a man...... then join as an official member and together let's make the difference...... rather than just be a complaining forumer...
