Anyway, apparently I gave some MT'ers the wrong idea. I'm certainly NOT here to be a grammar Nazi or just to spout off and be an ass-hat.

I just got fed up with like in the Miata equivalent of a fascist nation.

Look WAY WAY up in the sky. See that? That's the point flying over your head, the one you are missing.

It isn't about what you do here as much as it is about you acting like an ass elsewhere and then associating yourself with the good folks here. Guilty by association right?

People should be happy to know that Scott has me caged in his basement and I'm not allowed to say anything that remotely seems Nazi'ish.

While I agree with you both, there is a different point to consider. The moderator over there welds his staff like he was god. As a member of the other forum, I can TOTALLY understand where evank is coming from. The moderator has created a hostile/snarky environment and everyone has started following his lead. Cut him a little slack.

To further my example previous said - I just received this e-mail from Larry Alster: (I mean - what moderator contacts you outside the forum to complain!?!?)
"Just because you go to another forum and think you can talk trash and tell lies doesn’t mean people don’t know about it.

You NEVER told me anything about my 91 and COPs so stop telling lies to try to trash me.

My response:
"YOU ARE TOTALLY WORSE OFF THAN I THOUGHT. MAYBE YOU FORGOT MY FIRST VISIT TO THE GAP THREE YEARS AGO???? MY FRIEND AND I BOTH TOLD YOU ABOUT HOW YOU WERE WRONG. I HAVE TWO WITNESSES!!!! SO IF YOU THINK ANYTHING YOU SAY MEANS ANYTHING, SHOVE IT WHERE THE SUN DON’T SHINE. DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT CALLING ME A LIAR.

FYI- Gary has approved me posting in the for sale section of the MS forum. So edit the forum rules appropriately.

And you're saying that we don't? Sheesh, guess I gotta ban a few vendors as a show of force now... :D


In all seriousness people, we just can't have this. I don't mind people mentioning MT on other boards, or singing its praises, or even criticizing it if you have a legitimate point. But associating MT (directly or indirectly) with trolling, flaming, muck-raking, and so on at other boards is simply not going to stand. In other words, saying "You guys are all a bunch of assholes, I'm going back to MT" on any other forum (even ILikeToJerkOffToNakedPicturesOfJustinTimberlakesGr andfather.net) will pretty much result in permaban from now on. We don't want to be associated with the kind of folks who pull that kind of BS.

I think an example needs to be made. :)

Evank,

Reasonable comebacks and thick skin response to criticism. You might be OK afterall.

I'm not a teenager. I just play one on the internet.

Sorry man .... I meant it in a good way.

Thank you, Stephanie and Cueball.

I understand, and you're not banned. I'm just putting this out there as a warning to copycats and others- I don't want the MT name being associated with punk behavior on other boards.

Foiled again!:vash:

I'm on a few forums. Okay, more than a few. I do mention other boards when posting around, but I never talk about my personal experiences beyond that of superficial expression. Nothing deeply opinionated. With that, I might link something that's relevant to the topic or thread that I'm on, to add to the discussion. Being a part of multiple MR2 boards and Saturn boards etc. there might be members that are on separate boards such as myself. As on here. I know a couple of you from other boards.

Also, I'll post a topic or relate the info to that of a discussion from another forum. BUT, I don't go around bashing. Firstly, my name is too easy to remember and second, I seem to see people I know everywhere on forums. It's weird. I feel that if I burn a bridge somewhere, or get all pissy pants and tick off a mod somewhere, then I'm going to be known as and ass elsewhere. It kinda sucks to "get around" sometimes...:giggle:
