Why was the supercruise thread locked
Why was this thread locked
the Moderator says there is too much insulting, Apart from one or two lame insults directed at me I can't really see any
I am not bothered by any insults
are the moderators over zealous
throwing their weight around

as i said the thread was going nowhere. i was actually asked to do something about it by another member.
as for the insults i was taking action before it became an all in brawl.
anyway its been done, it maybe unlocked later after being tidied up.
on a side note im suggesting that you be a bit more positive and productive in your comments on events that happen.

so now my opinions will be censored
did you not notice the ideas for a VW event topic?
where did that come from ? it was produced as a result of the spirited correspondence
in the thread
so it was productive
positive well that is a matter of opinion

did you read all the posts there is not really any insults as for predicting an all in brawl
that is presumptuos
can the moderators be puppeteered by members? It should be on your own doing not at the behest of others
Beer can cloud ones judgement

Well there's a productive comment if i've ever seen one.
Almost as good as telling members to get back in their box.
What a role model. Leading AVD with fine standards.

I though the original post was ok. If someone wants to stick their neck and say what they think good luck to them and good on you for saying what you
think "silver"

In my view the affore mentioned moderator has to much of a personal opion as to what get said here. there are not too many posts that he does not
interfere with and he needs to get a life. The last post I comented on about his compalaints about "the rules" I was pm'd and told not to post
again.I feel this is way over the top and should be rained in by those above him with a bit more common sence.
As for the post being locked I along with Silver were stating fact in our view about the SuperCruise and its location and in my case the club that
hosted it. What ever happend to free speach as long as it doesnt get nasty,personal or liable? but then again its sets a fine example to others when
moderators start calling other posters aresholes.
Seems to me if they cant handle the job step down and let someone with a brain have a go.By the way I dont want the job as I have a life and could not
be bothered watching every post and telling the posters about "the rules"

This appears to be the same in all clubs,organisations,etc,a few want to bag some one for doing a job that no one wants to do,over the years a lot of
these clubs etc have closed down after this few got rid of the "offender" because no one will take a place of responsibility.Everyone has opinions
and these forums,clubs etc all have rules which some seem to take exception to.

im going to put forward that i have never called anyone still on this board an arse hole and the post from me was in reference to
opinions not one person in general.
as for the rules i posted i just updated a former post by brad. go back and check if you really must the original post was 2 years ago.
as for free speech this isnt america as much as it may look like it.
the thread in question has been closed move on with your lives.
as for all opinions of me as a moderator, feel free to email me with what you really think about me, i just dont care what you all think.
you all might want to go back and read the rules you agreed to when you joined the forum.
ps ive had two other mods agree with me on the post it stays as it is for the time being
