I only met Beck once and it was right before i shipped out to Iraq. I was so drunk I fell asleep as soon as i got home after telling teh girl i was with about how crazy of sex we were going to have FTL. Anyhow he seemed like an alright guy and i from what i remember was nice considering i was probably a raving d-bag at that point. I would too like to see him allowed back.
As far as the board i dont have any moderation issues really. I think Fry will be a good mod as he dosent stir shit and seems level headed. The only thing that bothers me about the forum are the members that i feel are only here to start shit, bandwagon, stroke their e-ego, swing their e-dick, etc. Not going to name names but i think the NYSPEED would be a better place with some of them gone.
