IF you want to see nazi, join clubroadster.net and post a for sale thread selling something not miata related. Then when it gets deleted, make a thread asking why.
Instant permaban.
I don’t think you guys spend enough time on other forums to realize how laid back it is here. Personal threats? They warrant a ban IMO. That’s just how it is. Personal attacks? Not so much I guess, that’s a beef that should be handled via pm. When shit starts to go down a mod should just say, PM eachother, or message on aim, keep it off of the forum. Done. If it continues, then a temp ban is in order. The racist shit? Well, that’s all up to Vlad IMO.
I keep saying this shit vlad cuz once it gets swaying towards a direction hard enough, it will go there and there is no stopping it
im not comparing shift to other forums, im comparing shift today to shift of a couple years ago… thats what im comparing to.
Fuck other forums, you know why they ban you for disagreeing with the staff? because they are faggots …and thats a personal attack up their asshole
never said other forums do it right , im comparing new shift to old shift.
AND im not even saying we are there yet , it still can be saved… im just saying we are heading there
im making noise and im not breakin no rules or gettin banned brah
everyone else is a bitch and dont know what they want , they will be the ones bitching later
It is up to vlad, damn fucking straight.
I DONT spend enough time on other forums because I dont need to do none of that shift, there is a reason why shift works locally and its pretty easy to see how.
For the racist shit, COOL lets ban ******
but not ban

nigra / ***** / niggah / nigguh / nigglet or any of those
COOOON
or whatever else “OFFENSIVE” terms we got laying around.
ban all of them or none.
Ban all the terms or dont ban any…
thats just one example of how shit isnt run correct
as far as how i would deal with a situation with a member instead of banning them, i dont need to explain it, next time some crazy shit goes down with some faggot let me know and i’ll guarantee he makes an apology thread, if his fail is epic enough
You just said yourself though that you aren’t on that much dude. Make a thread in the mod section talking about how you think those situations should be handled so the rest of the mods know also. I’ll text you next time shit gets out of hand or something, but still.
I’m fairly new, so I don’t know how shit used to be here. Just trying to offer up the new guy perspective.
i said i dont spend enough time on other forums to see how strict they are, and thats right.
I visit my own websites / shift and facebook as far as social interaction on the interweb goes. no other forums that i am not a significant part of
The reason why i say when shit goes crazy hit me up is because everytime someone gets banned for being a knucklehead they USUALLY hit me up and theres a reason for that because i dont talk to them like their school teacher
People Pm you because you’re soft Singh and you clearly think as act like them.
You also have no problem using swearing out in public places, which makes you look extremely unprofessional but fun to the people that know you.
Can’t wait to see you have kids and see how you raise them. Just let them do whatever the hell they want or have certain rules and enforce them??
You’re saying these rules will kill the forum but they’ve been around and nothing happened. Peope cry a river about a ban? It’s their fault, they knew the rule, they knew what’s going to happen, they need to be away for a few days. Whats the excuse you’re expecting to hear? Everybody has got a sob story.
You know what does kill a local forum
Bad reputation and lack of new members staying around. One feeds the other, and it’s happening now. You can proclaim you day of doom all you want, but this is a problem now. Many new members saying they we were warned about joining and or didn’t want to join. Many of them dont stick around. You saying “we don’t want them” is exactly how places die.
Cosseys reply of actually helping was proper
This
Was not. If I went on a forum and was called a tard by a mod I wouldn’t think kindly of the place.
You guys are crying a river over a few rules, which are very minor compare to nearly every other forum. We rarely get a person banned and when we do it seems like the end of the world even though they will be back in a few days. :facepalm
Just speaking for myself here, but I tend to think I’m pretty level headed when it comes to things. I think what everyone is saying, is this is a car community forum based around comradery. We all pick on each other and bust stones. It just seems you want things to be pretty strict when it comes to rules/how we talk to each other and people don’t like that. (Which is fine, it’s your place and all).
I’m with you on the whole personal attacks are not acceptable. We don’t need people getting into fights at the lot/pnr etc because of stupid shit said online to each other. Take that shit to PMs if you want to do it, personal blatant disrespect/foulness shouldn’t be tolerated.
What Wayne said is just Wayne being Wayne and didn’t seem out of context at all. He was busting stones, we all do it. This is a place for some of us to come and vent, talk shit, laugh just have a good time.
Just seems like you want this place to turn into Pee Wee’s Playhouse (sans the touching genitals).
I think the personal attacks should be limited as some of these idiots take it way to far. As far as the friendly name calling and ball busting is fine. I dont think Waynes comment was out of context as when you are dealing with a child you have to be agressive.
I think we should change the terms and conditions things noobs see to say something about “if you are a whiny but hurt gettin pussy this is not the place for you. Please go back to suckling your mothers teat you 24 year old living in your parents basement acne faced punk bitch” “if you can take the heat jump in the frying pan and punch SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSMokin in the face with your callassed fallus head, cause we all know you only came here to fap to the CP, NWS and Tattoo thread. Here is some Jergens you dumb fuck it will cut down on those callasses and leave your cock baby but soft and smelling of fresh perky woman chest sachels”
The guy was looking for help, he didn’t agitate anyone or did anything out of line, god forbid he posted in the “wrong” section which by a stretch could still be right.
Ball busing in a mature way is fine but when every thread I go into no matter what the subject just has you guys calling each other N this and Fa**ot that it just makes me want to save money on my bill next month and not renew the server as I’ve worked way too hard and way too long to not even be able to achieve a mature discussion on the topic at hand.
Not even counting the fact that I don’t enjoy reading it, new members don’t either and they don’t want to join, further putting into question what exactly am I trying to build new stories in a building for when you guys are destroying the base.
You wanna have your fun? Go to the Random thoughts thread and call each other out there and do whatever you want, even go into SRS which I typically stay out of, but stop ruining every thread with bs.
Vlad, I honestly don’t know how keeping even 50% of threads on topic is possible on this forum. A question gets answered, then turns into who’s wang is the biggest usually. The banter sparks other threads. I don’t honestly see ways around that.
