Jeff, Mike & Drew we all at the Tea Leaf meet last night. They must not be into cars anymore… :ham:
Like I said, I had never even met cougarspeed before this. And while I’ve known Mike and Jeff for a long time, it’s not like we’ve ever hung out outside of car meets. All the mods were invited to stay, some did and some didn’t. It was their decision to make not ours.
Any other ridiculous claims you want to make?
I <3 Josh
It wasn’t directed at you, chill, lol.
What comment?
Bottom line, inferring that the mods are somehow bad for this forum since we happen to know each other personally is just silly.
god yambag, just stop whining
i never said that they didn’t, you are putting words in my mouth, what i did say was that when you are friends with mods, it can cause problems when something goes wrong
thats exactly my point, you dont want to say anything to them if/when they mess up cause they are your friends, thank you for saying it for me
i never made any claims and never said the mods did a bad job, i said it can cause problems as you can see i’ve written a few times now
i direct you to boardjunky’s post above…

oh well, i had a post typed out and the forum is being stupid, not typing that again
Josh,
How about you make me a mod for the next hour and I lock this thead so that we don’t have to hear this nonsense anymore.
If anyone complains it shouldn’t have been locked you can just say I went rogue and that the necessary action has been taken (you firing me as a mod).
Anyone else like that idea?
I’m not sure if I was unclear or w/e, but I believe that it’s a piss poor decision to fire someone just because they are your friend.
Agreed, but it must be taken into consideration if you are to stay a mod, you cant show favoritism towards certain members when they actually are in the wrong.
It’s human nature, and a forum like nyspeed is built on community. People here go to meets together, cruise together, race together, and all of that bonds friendships. So it’s bound to happen at least a little bit. I mean, I don’t see it as an issue here. Every now and then, but it’s minor, and I think the mods/admins here do a pretty good job and put in a lot of effort.
the only thing i was getting at by saying it was thats usually the root of the cause, that is all…everyone gets all defensive and go nuts over it just cause i post it lol
i’m glad i have that effect on everyone though 
makes my day
Being the single most annoying member makes you happy? Way to set lofty goals.
Oh and just for reference our “favorites” have racked up lots of infractions. I am not sure how many times we have banned Beck, and Newman still holds a record for infractions I think. Maybe deebo passed him, but Newman had it for some time. I think that even the infallible Mr. Fry has one.
2 warnings and a sig infraction from some dude named RX3. Of course I’ve gotten away with being an ass countless times because I’ve drank a lot of beer with several mods. 10 beers = 1 infraction. It’s in the site rules.
If everyone drank beers together more often, less shit like this would go down anyway regardless of “favorites”.
Le sigh.
Everything was dangerous. What yambag suggested, the jump over burn out, and the jump over drift car.
But this also is a group of people who street race and do dangerous shit daily.
So my next major point is: Who the fuck cares?
Dear Skurge,
Now that you’ve put my name into your mouth and have clearly called into question my morality and where I stand, I now have a problem with both you, your attitude, and your pure ignorance… about everything. Now, anyone who knows me knows that I do what I do here for the over all betterment of the forum and community. If there’s a decision that Bing or Onyx make that isn’t in that ideal, IMHO, I am the first to open my mouth. There’s a lot of things behind the scenes that no one ever sees. We(forum staff) all don’t see eye to eye and that’s why we work as a forum staff. We all come from different back ground and have different thoughts about things.
All of that being said, I do what I do to try and make our “world” better, for everyone. There are no perks for reading every single post to review it. The only thing I get is the slow loss of my sanity because of people like you.
[ghettomode] You come at me or reference to me again like that. You betta come correct son. [/ghettomode]
why the butthurt? i said nothing about you… seems you are the one that has a problem with me, not the other way around, so dont put words into my mouth
is that a threat i see?

no it makes me happy that it really bugs the shit out of your guys to the point of getting angry and calling names…thats just funny as hell to me. this is the internet guys, you are all clearly too sensitive to be on here unsupervised
I see you’re just like a woman. Reality happens around you and something changes once it enters your brain to change the way you see and remember it.
so then show me where i mentioned you or anything specific you have done?
