I'm sorry, but these two responses don't jive to me. You can't be the good guy and the bad guy all rolled into one. Again, I'll ask. Do we have the CHOICE to not have our build/BS threads NOT be in the photo gallery? I mean it, can we have it in a section that is OK with chatting? I'm not being a smart alec, either.

I don't get this site sometimes.. bashing good members, rewarding abrasive members who break the "rules"

No nobody cares we just have learned never to click on anything you post as a link. You may think it's funny but it isn't People enjoy coming here and talking with one another not having to worry about should I or shouldn't I click this because we have no idea what the asshole is intending to trick us with. If your other forums think that is funny then obviously that is why we are not a part of those forums. I don't see where anyone would think that is funny in the slightest. Most of us are at work when we are on here and that is not cool on ANY work computer or even at home with my wife and children I wouldn't want that shit. Then you come in here saying that we should be careful because we could have shit show up in google? Ok that sounds like a threat and you acting big and bad that we better "watch out" or else.

I'm not disagreeing, Yum...
I'm simply stating that you can't say that you're not on a power trip and then post what you just did in your last 2 long responses to Tyler. They read like they're on a power trip to me. Like, YEAH I DID IT, and I have the backing of other mods, and what are you going to do about it. That's all. Maybe you didn't mean it that way, but that's how it read to me.
Aside from 1 misunderstanding with Anil, I've never had any problem with anybody on this website (not counting obvious trolls, obviously).

A normal guy doesn't get himself banned and then act like a little bitch and sends people a shitload of spam mail. A normal guy takes his ban like a man. That is hiding behind your computer like every E thug in the world. But hey you are 22 and have life all figured out, what the fuck do I know.
I didn't think that the ban was justified. Like I mentioned above, I'm used to a different atmosphere. Me posting that elsewhere(which I have done before) was well-received. However, most of the forums that I am a part of have a very computer literate population, so it's a slightly different circumstance.
The "22 years old" plug is unwarranted, and you don't know anything about me at all.

Okay...keep voicing them. Still will not change a thing. 
And you keep forgetting something I said repeatedly: All decisions on this forum are made collectively. If you think I operated alone on this, you are smoking some bad weed.
Want to keep going? I'm here ALLLLL day.
And yes, this is actually quite amusing for me. I don't understand why you are so upset about. And I'll also say this: I'll cheerfully lock your thread without PMing you today, tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year if I feel it is appropriate AND that it has been derailed enough. You think we owe you something here. You pay for membership on this site?
And no worries, I know you're not cursing, swearing, or making personal attacks. That's why you're getting responses from me.

Oh so you'll lock my thread without a PM? What about this?
"All warnings will be sent in the form of a PM. If you cant follow the rules after that you will be banned and an email will be sent informing you of the banning."
And I'll gladly pay to be a member of this site to prevent my thread being messed with without my permission.

I had nothing to do with the spam mail. Who is the other guy that was douching around around the same time that I was banned? I would ask him.

C'mon man!!! I know you will never fess up to it, but whatever. Another member that got banned around the same time did it. Now that's the funniest shit you've ever posted.

Tyler, I have closed threads before without sending a PM to the Original Poster of that thread.
Yummy did nothing wrong by closing your thread....and without sending you a PM about it.
This has been discussed-your thread is now open. Let's all stay on topic better.........and breathe!

Most of us are here for the lulz and because we really enjoy being a part of this community.. sure we give each other a hard time once in a while but it's only because we're breauxs.. right Justn? 
I agree that mods here are pretty lenient here (exception, BC and GG
), but that's good in the sense that you want the community to be a positive experience, bad in that certain elements are allowed to fester and become a disease within that community, right Justn?
Regarding PW Build thread, M knows too well how they veer off..
T, you should just make a new build thread.. put, less BS in the title.. of course, 3 days from now that won't be true anymore

It wasn't a threat. It was an illustration so you guys would understand the kind of forum atmosphere that I am used to.
At work, I understand. But why would you care if your wife and kids see a dog on a computer screen saying "hurr-durr". I think you are mistaking me for someone else.

Guys, all kidding aside its time to lay down your guns. From someone who has been foruming (is that a word) since forums were fairly new, this conversation is in no way constructive. Let lay down our guns and play nice
Both sides. Mmmkay?

I won't admit to it because I would never do it, not with being in my line of work. It's a FELONY to do so. Here is the link to the FTC: http://business.ftc.gov/documents/bu...guide-business

I don't give a shit what line of work you are in. It seems that you have the certain "avenues" to do malicious things to people that "rub" you the wrong way. I am no computer whiz by any means, but I sure do know that I didn't sign myself up for 400 unwanted emails.

Tyler, again...I know that you're angry. But, really fail to see your rationale. At this stage, we are going in circles and unfortunately, you will not change my mind on this matter.
The "mod posse" you talk is not some elitist group and many have very challenging jobs. To make AZ what it is (apparently you love it here) takes effort and work that is not readily transparent to you at times...and yes, you need to believe it.
We are tasked by the Admins to make decisions often and your protocol of a courtesy PM only is warranted in the right context. Again, your thread became something else on its own and so, in many ways, was NO LONGER YOURS. You decided to go along with the mob and voiced no issues does not mean it is proper.
Your car's build thread is exactly that...meant for your car and what mods you have. If it goes OT, if a moderator sees it, chances are, it will be locked and even in some cases, vacations handed out. Always has been this way. You were just lucky it was not noticed for quite some time.
I changed my mind about going all day about this. This is my last response on this matter... your thread is reopened and at the end of the day, you have nothing to be unhappy about. Chill.
