I have not seen anything with this guys case personally, but I think moderators should be more harsh on people who personally attack users or their cars just for askin opinions of things they dont personally like.

Its like anyone gets away with anything on the boards lately.

More or less it was locked because you were verbally abusive. madmax doesn't take any bs in his forum.

i've noticed a little bit more stuff goin on also.

same typical bashing and bitching that goes on in the appearance board.

it's quite simple...... if you can't handle something without resorting to flaming back, then leave. we get tired of seeing the same flame wars every day because someone can't ignore someone who rips on them.

goddamn, deal with it already.

So its the person who doesnt choose to deal with its fault, and not the person being the *******?

as far as i'm concerned......

if some guy comes in and rips on your car, calls it a hunk of chit, scrap pile, rice, etc.. and you retaliate (sp?) back by flaming him...... you're every bit of being part of the problem.

some people enjoy the attention by flaming other people, i presume.

but you have to deal with it by simply ignoring it. don't flame back. that's what they want. they want to get you pissed off. don't air out your dirty laundry on the boards.... there's plenty of off-topic thirdgen boards for that.

i see what you mean.

and yeah, people seem to be getting away with a lot more lately....

and quite frankly, i see brad doing more moderating on the appearance board rather than the actual moderators.........

i also don't tolerate much on the board i run (northeast regional)

but then again, i don't get much stuff.

ede is right. some times we have to be the bad guys, but the site would be in pretty sad shape if there werne't any moderators......
