Well Here Goes...

OK 3 days now,I got the email,read the post even looked around the other site.

That stuff,bashing,smashing and flaming gets old,post after post ,after post...

Logan laid down the rules HE wanted for HIS site.
He's seen that stuff too,he may even enjoy it a little ONCE IN A WHILE.
So what happens here?

WE have at least 4 members here ,that I know of,that are FRIENDS of the site.

I'm not sure of this but they MAY even contribute $$ at one time.

THE 4 of them add a lot to this site.
They have been responsible for new products for our cars,they have brought new sponsers ($$).

From Logans post above I have to say they have become HIS friends too,because of the above they seem to have CARTA BLAC on what they can get away with on this site.


The problem as I see it is,the 4 in question add a lot to this site when they are not calling each other names,somebody is a crybaby tattling to Logan,dish it out but can't take it?

How many user post here each mounth? 200-300?How many are a PITA?4?

I'm not ready to start righting checks to support this site,or any site,sorry.But some have,does money give them more freedom then I, YES and you know what thats fine with me.

LOGANS NUMBER ONE RULE on this site is it's HIS! He says it over and over and over and.............................................................................

Logan don't ask us what you should do,Don't post every three mounths how pissed you are at US over what we post. Just do what YOU want it's YOUR site.

We all know Menace was a PITA but he's back and plays by your rules now.
How many "menace's" are here now only you know.


MY opinion to Logan is this; make a decision and stick with it,or not,it's YOUR site!

My opinion to everybody else who is not a FUROM listed sponser is this; If somebody post something about you or your car you don't like ignor it,just let it go.

My opinion to FORUM sponsers is; do what ever you want on your forum,I think you do anyway.

THIS IS NOT A CLUB,WE DO NOT GET A "VOTE"!
PLEASE DON'T ASK US.
 
Showtime?

Well said. I have stated many of the points you have just in other words.

Time to step up to the plate and do what is right. Not for "us" but your self.
 
This subject drove me over the edge. When I sign on now I have withdrawal pains if there's only one or two new replies in it. I was so looking forwards to it being 6,000 pages long and 200,000 replies. :)

There've been only 6 posts so far today (7 if you count this one). It IS winding down, Patrick. Take away yours and mine, it's only 5. This is my last post in this thread, so if those of you can resist a post beseeching this thread stop, maybe it will,
 
Yes, it is Logan's site and he has been gracious enough to invite us in. To me, that is the point when the comfort of the guest becomes important, especially if you want that guest to stay.

In the frame of reference of a host/guest, Logan is doing well to be open to there being a more clear set of guidelines. :up:

This site is also a community. When people make suggestiongs for changes there are no impure motives. There is no hidden agenda. Almost every suggestion that I have ever heard of or seen for MM.net was with the purist of motives and are suggestions that I think would have a positive impact on the community as a whole. Where is the harm in that?

People who don't care don't do that. They just leave. It is the ones who want to see something good become something great that try to have an impact.

I agree that the bickering and trolling is not needed. However, I feel that Logan is dead on for asking the community to help out more and to come up with a clearer set of rules for it.

:director: Look people, most of us spend a lot of time at our jobs during the day dealing with either ignorant co-workers or customers. I'm sure the fine host of this site like many of us would like to come home to a civil enviornment. All you need to do is follow the golden rule: If you don't have anything nice to say, or type, don't say or type it. :nono: As many others have stated this site is the best site for our cars and way of life and would hate to see it go. Thank you. :help:

What HE said. Very smart man. :up:
 
Taking of offence

I sometimes wonder what happened to "sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me."

I'm 46, went to Sunday school (United Church). My recollection and understanding of the saying has always been an admonishment to let things go; to turn the other cheek, and to NOT let being called a name cause you to be angry. I'm not saying this for any sympathy, but I know what ridicule and embarassment means. And I mean the REAL, face to face kind, not this internet type.

Or how about letting those without sin cast the first stone? Is criticism the issue? As has been pointed out already, some of those complaining have allowed the same words to be used by others without penalty. And we ALL know that ricers are second rate, right?

We all have our quirks and biases. Anyone who says otherwise is, IMHO, blowing smoke. If we all tried to be a little more "sticks and stones...", I think we'd all be able to spend a LOT less time worrying about meaningless rules about when someone gets banned.
 
Logan, you're alright by me whatever you decide to do.

If I have been "on the rag" at any time and acted insulting or caused you undue stress, I honestly admit my fault and ask your forgiveness.

Please accept my heartfelt thanks. If you archive all of this, thank you for keeping the vast database of parts, advice and experience for us all to enjoy.

Be happy dude. It's the only thing that matters in the end.
