I think it was a great idea to set up such a meet. First it seemed like no one had anything to say and then bamm.... There was not enough time for everyone to speak. There are a lot of concerns, but overall this is the best crew out there. Thanks for setting this up.

Sorry I couldnt make it. I was planning on showing up but the Supra Dyno Meet ended overlapping the roundtable meet. Can someone post a list of key points made and solutions that you guys came up with, I would love to read and see the progress that was made.

it sucks that the actions of just a few can adjust the whole standing of the crew as a whole. there may be problems within the crew, but there is no need to make a quarrel between 2 or 3 people deter the rest. There are many people in NELOC always willing to give a helping hand, i know that from many first hand experiences. Keep it up guys.

Alot of the quarrelling is related to he said, she said. May I suggest some sort of arbitration in the event quarrels do take place?

i think the problems that WILL occur will be dealt with the right way (hopefully people learn from the mistakes of others), its the problems that have occured ALREADY are the things holding NELOC back. While I have no clue what these quarrels were, its so obvious that things that happened way back when are still holding the progress back.
