I think your view on rule following and authority are showing through AD, maybe from your schooldays? fine you don't like rules or authority, then don't go to a any place that enforces them?

In this case David not somebody of authority apparently. All I got from the OP's short story was that a member of the public had shouted to the OP's friend to slow down. Not that unreasonable in my opinion. The site staff member later had a friendly word with the OP's friend.
As for the escaped dog I was amused that somebody who could apparently neither had proper control or the ability to keep eyes on an undisciplined dog should let it off the lead in the darkness in the first place. He does not seem to have been at all grateful to 'Shutup Graham' for locating the errant pooch.
As always there are at least two sides to such an event and then there is the truth.

I think you mean psychologist, David.

Does 'he'? I suspect he's not bothered what you do.😉

"I suspect" means I speculate, David. Does anyone here need a spokesperson? 🤔
I thought you’d have realised my comments were lighthearted in view of the

It certainly does takes the biscuit, husky! All this fake news with no 'facts' now really adding up at all! We've possibly been made to bark up the wrong tree once again? The whole thing has created a real dog's dinner with no one coming up smelling of roses, just made plenty of fur fly for some.

Let’s paws for thought here and consider whether the OP's complaint was a whine and whether he made a howler in posting. Also, should he have buried the issue or kept at it like a dog with a bone?🐩🐕🐶

It’s the frequency of picking my posts that is of concern AD, and as you know, I don’t like to report things, and am not easily offended. Nor do I want to fall out over such trivia.
The OP has by his own admission had a couple of issues during his stay, one a friend who had the Warden have a word about driving too fast, and secondly his dog accidentally got loose upsetting other visitors. From his tale some of those other visitors perhaps weren’t too nice in their responses, but that’s his opinion. Why I said no one comes out glowing other than the Warden.
The underlying issue has nothing to do with speeding or dogs, but appears to be a long drawn out diatribe against rallies, and perhaps a rally chairman. It smacks of a not too subtle attempt to discredit the SLancs group and who ever is in charge, for reasons known only to the OP.
I don’t use Club Sites very much at all, find them too micro managed and overloaded with do’s and don’ts to be totally relaxing, but I do recognise why they have evolved so, and it’s partly because some folks push the boundaries of common sense, and have to be reminded by road humps, speed advisory signs etc...... I am hardly an advocate of the Club can do no wrong, as you would have me thought.

All those advisory signs and things like speed bumps are, I guess, an attempt to stop the small minority who deliberately break the rules from spoiling things for the rest of us. That false cry of 'no one told me' is often used to support non observance of rules quickly followed by the predictable announcement that the person reminding them had no right to do so or that they were rude or overly officious.
Such 'reminders' are there to stop the 'offending' minority from dictating or justifying their actions to the many. Unfortunately this is just a fact of life within in a community and for some it would not make any difference if a saint were trying to assist them.

Can't say that such rules have ever bothered me. I just act as I would without them anyway. I see a sign that says 5mph and yes that suits me. I don't have a dog these days. Nothing to concern me as I find that consideration for others covers most rules anyway.

interesting, I thought you said you did go on club sites David, even booked one I seem to recall, also interesting that you know the difference between psychologist and psychiatrists, a lot of people without experience of them get it wrong

Without taking sides, I firmly believe that any CMC sites allowing Rally's to be held when normal paying customers are also on site, should make it abundantly clear at the time of booking that this is happening. That way Customers can choose whether to use that site during that time or go elsewhere. That would avoid disappointment among normal customers when they arrive on site.

You forgot hogging a plum pitch brue! (Paragraph 3, line 9)🤔

You make it sound as if we should be warned, K. However being 'informed' might help encourage folk to experience rallying. Afterall, rallying has been part and parcel of our club since time began. I seem to recall that they were prior announced and published in the past but may be wrong. They may still be.
Note:- we've never attended one and have no desire to do so but each to their own of course and someone may just convince me that it is really a good idea.
