What the **** do you mean youll temp ban us all? What the **** did we "all" do? One guy takes my post the wrong way and gets mad so we are all threatened with a ban? Come on now.. This is getting a little out of hand with the power trip.. "


REDZMAN:

"First off, eat my ass. I was talking to Hamhead and Mk3, they are always starting fights. I didn't say shit to you so get off your high horse. I ain't power trippin at all. You wanna see me power trip, I can do it. No go re read that thread.

Don't PM me about it again."


Wow.. He says in the post to treaten to ban all of us.. So I pm him and try to solve things quietly and this is the response I get? I do nothing wrong and here an admin is threatening me..

This used to once be a great site, but it seems there more rules and regulations anymore than actual info.. Almost EVERY post I read, theres an admin laying down the rules.. Is this really necessary? Rules are great, but this has gotten out of hand..

If this earns me a ban, that is fine and dandy.. Im done with mod'ing my car's until I purchase a house so this site wont benefit me.. All I ask is I get my parts from TibbyChick and the guy I purchased the speakers from.

You obviously weren't very friendly in your PM to REDZMAN, so I argue the point that you "try to solve things quietly."

If you really want to show what happened, quote the post in question.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (REDZMAN)</div><div class='quotemain'>Keep the fighting out of the forum guys, or I'll temp ban all of you.

Wings look fine on stock cars, duh, otherwise MFR's wouldn't put wings on stock cars.

If you are talking about a set of bleachers, they look DUMB on all cars.</div>

Now, to me it was directed at those who are "fighting" not really "all members" as you made it seem. Rules have been set because the forum was getting out of hand with the remarks and fighting and off-topic posts. We are trying to keep this site tuner friendly, and the little junior high crap that goes on is really irritating to a lot of people. There are opinions on both sides of the track (enforcement needed, and enforcement not needed). It's simple, follow the rules and everything's fine. The rules aren't really that unbearable, are they?

Personally, I think the one who "takes the post the wrong way" in this situation was you. I find your complaint to be worthless

Are these really that bad?

Agreed, those rules are hardly that tough to follow, come on now.

I did kind of find it funny to read Redz reply. Sorry it was just a bit amusing Maybe I need sleep.

What the hell, I make an intelligent post and a suggestion and go to sleep and I get ragged on when I wake up. Not the best day for me I guess...

As usual, you didn't read anything. Try reading the quote right above this one. Again, as I PM'ed you, I wasn't talking to YOU. I also said TEMP ban in the thread, guess you forget what you want to huh?

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>So I pm him and try to solve things quietly and this is the response I get? I do nothing wrong and here an admin is threatening me..</div>

I don't know if you noticed the PM you sent me, but here...

Ya so Im trying to do this respectfully..

See, when I get a PM from a member, and it's cursing at me like you did above, I take offence and do the same back. I guess you didn't like it. You said you were trying to be "Respectfull", but I don't see how. I could care less if you respect me or not, but talk to me like you DON'T know me, cause you know what? You don't. And as for a "Power Trip", you are an idiot. I am an ADMIN here first off, not a MOD, and I do my JOB. Sorry if you don't like it doode, but that's a fact. Next time, if you want a simple answer, ask simply. Stop acting so innocent.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>This used to once be a great site, but it seems there more rules and regulations anymore than actual info..</div>

Hmm. I'd say about 3 folks here would agree with you on that. They also happen to be the ones constantly posting off topic and starting crap.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Almost EVERY post I read, theres an admin laying down the rules..</div>

No, some are ADMIN, and some are MODS. There is a difference. And yeah, it's been like that lately because of all the NEW USERS that don't know HOW TO ACT CIVIL, and the others that won't STFU with usless comments.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Is this really necessary? Rules are great, but this has gotten out of hand..</div>

Yes, they are, please visit the threads we've had recently on "censorship" and the new "Advanced Warning System".

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>If this earns me a ban, that is fine and dandy..</div>

No, it won't.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Im done with mod'ing my car's until I purchase a house so this site wont benefit me..</div>

See, that's a bad attitude to have. Many of us on here are good friends and come on here daily to keep up and have some fun. There is more to being a member of these community's than just modifying your car. No huge loss though, what have you done for the community lately?

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>All I ask is I get my parts from TibbyChick and the guy I purchased the speakers from.</div>

That is off topic, just PM them. Why wouldn't you get them?
