As a vendor, I like this site much better then others, because the people seem to be more mature, more into the hobby, and all about helping the next member, whether they are a site veteran, a vendor, or a newbie. Everyone has their buttons, and unfortunately they do get pushed time and again, but I think more people here then on other sites can put back on their "big boy pants" at the end of the day and move on. Now of course, there's always exceptions to the rule...

i was basically threatend off the site via PM for disagreeing with an admin.

"People of all incomes, jobs, type get out to track all across the US to track their cars and have a good time."

it warranted this response from an admin:

Quote:
Either clean up your posts or simply don't post. It's your choice. Your holier than thou attititude with snide connotation is growing very thin.

Take this for what it is, a simple request - and not just from me, but also from many members of our community that I talk to on a regular basis.

This PM isn't a debate or a discussion.

Thanks,
If you see me on the streets say hi I'm a nice guy. But if you disagree with an admin on this site or a vendor, expect a threat. Admins name removed as a courtesy. I'm at topanga canyon north in the mall parking lot supercar sunday every last sunday, trying to sell the Mini. Come say hi and see some 12million dollar cars. Like this:

Bruce Meyer's.....

I seriously doubt you got that warning from the mod based on that one sentence.

Nice try, but that's FAR, FAR from the truth. You were threatened with removal because of how you were treating other members. Period.


Since you felt it was necessary to post a year old private message in public, manufacture a lie about the intent of that PM I sent in an effort to make me look bad, lets revisit it...


Over a year ago, you were riding people constantly about how you think someone else should be driving their car. You were doing it so much and were being so obnoxious about it that I was getting PM's and e-mails complaining about you. Up until that PM that I sent you (and you kept for over a year then posted it here in this thread), I was being nice, politely asking you to ease up on how you ran your mouth about other members. But, again, you're either slow or a slow learner and just weren't processing the message, so I had to use language and wording in that final PM so that you'd understand.


I find it oh so ironic how you were constantly on people about how they should be tracking their cars, then you never even showed at RTTC. You had some excuse about having a headache. I have to wonder if you even understand the irony of that. For months you rode members about tracking their car, the reasoning for their personal choice, and after all that, you didn't show up. All the drama you created in this community for nothing.

You're either SLOW or a SLOW LEARNER, which is it?



And since I had to defend myself for defending the community, this one is done.

This site is still the best of it's kind. Scott and the mods are doing great with what they have to deal with.

Things happen, we move on.
