So, after reading through a couple of threads that seemed a bit discontinuous, and finding the name "John" a few times, I've just realised that regular Kartbook contributor John Daly has deleted his profile and all his content from the site.
I just wanted to make it clear that he's chosen to do that himself, and that we didn't ban him.

I hope it is a decision by himself, and not a kart club or higher...
Well, I don't think John was a member of any AKA affiliated club, nor in fact a member of the AKA, and whilst he was a strong proponent of karting conspiracy theories, I very much doubt he was the victim of one.
doubt very much if he was forced to do this as he wouldn't do that and I too have a few spam hits and attempted hacks from his old e-mails will see if I can e-mail and find out he may not be aware whats going on??
yep i have to say john daly done a fair bit to help me
Â
one weekend for example knew didnt have transport to the track so he drove all the way over to my house about an hour
Â
we prepped my kart i had shot bearings didnt have cash for more but we got another meeting out of them
Â
let me crash at his house his really nice missus cooked dinner
Â
went racing went back to his house after the meeting drove me home next day
Â
not a lot of blokes like that out there
Â
but yea john does need to ease up on the AKA but so do many others!!
Â
where did john go
drives 7 hours to do 9 laps as our safety kart driver for our enduro.
Â
top bloke, what more can you expect from a man from the "regiment"
while hes offline Im gunna give it to him, he drives that pace kart way too fast when I am chasing it to make up the lap and too slow when I am sitting in behind it and paul has he got a Rotax or x30 yet tell him to get with the times and get back on kartbook even though I disagree with just about everything he says I do believe that his contribution of how he sees our sport is quite refreshing and needs to be heard so we can all be tolerant of each other.

Yeh John! Where the bloody hell are you? In the short time I have known John he has spent many a hour on the phone to me after working hours and in different time zone! His wife must be very understanding as I believe he lives/eats/breaths karting and goes well out of his way to help someone in need. Keep up the good work John!
if ya had the chance to go to johns house , instantly you would see the type of people john and his missus are
Â
what im trying to say is they rescued 4 of the now, most happiest dogs from the pound and there spoilt so much
Â
they both have good hearts and are so helpful
Â
 where is john :)
Â
 but also he not to be messed with ill give ya the tip :)
He's made his fortune from  Collectors Plates and doesn't need karting anymore.
Â
Cheers for the Comments John Daly.

Kartbook should have a button that gives the option to delete your comments or thread topics whenever you want...
Trust me Pete, it's never going to happen. As soon as you give people the opportunity to delete/edit their comments, they just run their mouths off at full speed, leaving all sorts of offensive, abusive and generally-guideline-breaking-crap all over the forums, then edit/delete it once it's had the effect they wanted, leaving no lasting evidence of their presence. I'm not having any of that here.

That's why the rules are - if you post something, it stays posted. Your name is next to it and you're responsible for it. People need to learn to engage their brain before their keyboard, and this rule has (most of the time) been an effective method of doing that.
