Dearie me, it didn't take you very long at all to go back to your old ways, did it?
But, TMN has said many things. Given that it is far too easy to misinterpret things, it would help if you took the trouble to actually quote the offending posts in question. That way, at least we could see if you're right, or if it's simply an unfortunate misunderstanding.
Of course, if you want to look as mendacious as those you accuse,, you could always keep up with the insults. The choice is yours.

Come friendly modbombs...
Do cycle helmets help protect from a Monty Python boot on the head?

That's completely normal on here.....
Then they ask for proof and stats.......the issue is its against the thread rules to do so
No insistence or demands for members to provide evidence or proof - personal experiences and anecdotes are fine in the context of this forum discussion. We're not looking to formulate laws or prove anything scientifically. Insistence will lead to you being excluded for 30 days.
So it looks like someone is looking at a 30 day ban ...but it wont happen

I would quite happliy supply any one of the none helmet supporters a bike and a car to ride into at 25mph, I could also video it if that would be proof enough?.

How about putting your head in a place where a car will just miss it by 3/4 of an inch. Now try again wearing a helmet... which do you think would hurt more?

Irony: someone complaining about the length of the previous discussion who then proceeds to lengthen it by posting low quality repeats of it.
The correct answer is not to crash into the car, not don a helmet that's not designed for collisions with cars.

Wow 281 pages. I wonder how many are actually about the pros and cons of wearing a helmet? Most seem to be about personality battles. I appreciate Im new around here but this thread doesn't do this place any credit. Seems its not about debate but more about squabbles and petty point scoring. It could have been a useful resource to help people too!
