[rant] k, now weve lost rg, kerry for the most part, tho his name is still here, and gsjack. and someone got pablo way the hell pissed imo. i realise a lot of you may have differing opinion then those stated. thats cool, occasionally i do too, hell if your opinions different, or you think theyre wrong try to keep it tactful. or if you must (excuse the expression) "jump their shaZam!", try to keep that in a pm. cause ill be damned if we lose anyone else because of this crap. weve got people here who lead lifestyles which some find un acceptable etc. fine youre entitled to your opinions. but damn they are people too :mad: if yomust make it personal. dont, but if you must comment on this or whatever, pm them [/rant]
YHKZ- I get what you're saying (although I don't know the Pable situation) and I agree....but there is something to be said about all the posts/threads concerning people's attitudes and that they're really just feeding those shameful persons' egos.....basically, you're just giving them the attention they crave....like giving a child negative attention.....they don't care as long as they're the center of attention....
Repost.
no one pissed me off. Takes too much mental energy to get pissed at what happens here (gstwin.com or the internet in general). I got plenty of other things to get me wound up...but thanks for the concern.
Well said Pantablo, I am glad of your expetise, whit etc,.
I know Kerry is still "borderline" coming back, I hope he does but I doubt he can afford as much time and effort as previously. I did not know about GSJack, that would be another great loss, I hope he comes around, the world needs grown ups!
you're preaching to the choir, man
:laugh: I like how this became Pablo's crusade :laugh: Nobody blew a gasket! It was a culmination of events that led up to the decision to allow actual *real* moderation. That's all. This means more eyes watching the board, more things sent to tard farm, and actual banning. That's all. In a couple of days there will be more moderators watching.
its nice to be loved...8^)
Ahhh....so good to feel the GSLove here! :kiss3: :icon_lol:
And it's certainly been calm on the board since the hammer came down! :thumb: O0
i can kinda relate, Granted im not a moderator but i to get tired of the BS. truth be told my number of posts have droped alot, ive even gotten to where i ride my XL250 and kat6 more then the GS. i dont mind passing along things ive learned, but i think folks who already have stomped the path through the bush would rather pass the torch then repeat the same things 30x and have to re-argue 1/2 that another 15x. atleast thats how im feeling anyway.

Time to drop the bananna hammer on the canuk :laugh: Yes it will be just that way. Say anything negative to anybody and you'll be banned and shot then burned at the stake.

...oooooo....heshe who must not be named....ooooooo....
yeah for the sake of peace :icon_lol:
hey what are the stars all about under the names?
Vehement disagreements usually occur when both parties are essentially correct, IMHO.
If you analyze most recent spats, typically between two focal points with others chiming in that are insignificant to the perspectives, both points are usually correct or OK.
I belong to a Yahoo group for 3-Wheel vehicles. Like motorcycle groups, there are the educated, the experienced, the clueless, the curious, the lurkers, the etc. as part of that group.
One member constantly harps on stability theory based on experience or what others have cited as correct. He is basically self educated and has lots of experience in many things. He is currently developing an electric car for small production. What he says is typically blatant, but intended to make others aware of possible safety issues.
He usually gets heated responses to his posts from people who are also correct. In most places this is called Peer Review.
Peer review is a normal process and that is what occurs here and in the big world of science. The difference in science is that they go to buildings, set up posters to display their data and push their theories, go a meeting room and argue point-counterpoint, until one side or neither side wins.
The elected officials we send to govern us do the same thing in the buildings we pay for. They argue for this or that until one side wins or a compromise is made. Ever see video of Parliament in the UK? You'd think those people will kill each other after work. Yet, they understand it is part of the process.
Here we have the insulatory internet that robs us of the ability to see facial/body language that helps us to govern civil behavior. I dare say if we all were in a room together, these spats wouldn't elevate to the ban/pissy level they achieve. The contrary parties would remain contrary. They would probably keep offensive comments and thoughts to themselves. At the very least, the peripheral joiners-in would remain civil also.
The grousing would be reserved for the "team talk" phase rather than the "debate" phase of the issue. If you made it to the end of this post, you are probably not ADD/ADHD. :laugh:
weasel...the stars refer to user activity
Well said StarWalt......couldnt agree with you more :thumb:

yes, most definitely a bit of frustration going on there but not really pissed off. nice how the whole tenor of the forum has changed for the better with that one act.
now lets have sex (no, not you alpha).

Oh come on, Pablo! I wasn't even IN this thread until now! Drag me in here for this? Puh-lease!
No matter though. I'm still tuckered out from this weekend with the new girlfriend. Whoooooeeeeee!
But I know you want me. Jake D wants me too. I should just make a list, or get one of those little number taker things like they have at the Post Office.

P.S. New girlfriend! Excellent! I didn't want to ask if you'd gotten back together with the ex or if this was new gf (yanno...not to open old wounds). Thanks for answering my unasked Q! :thumb:

Haarrrr haaarrrr haaaaarrrrrr.... And yeah. New girlfriend. The old relationship crapped out like a 1970s Triumph TR6 in Texas heat. I haven't even spoken to her since the break up. She won't even talk to me, dunno why. She goes through her roommate if she wants to tell me something. :dunno_white: Girls.

It's like that, but inverse. Like, if all that was equal to x, it'd be 1 over x, or x
-1. Yeah.

Nerds have time to think about sex alot, that's why some women like us.
