Here's your chance to make your opinion known! :thumb:
give me control, i got this...

Sorry for going "off topic", but should this thread be in TF?? :laugh:

Is it that everyone completely forgot I BEAT AN R6 TODAY!!! (http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=27919.0) ???????
I for one would like to keep sh*t like this from getting out of hand. Personally, I think that the mods should have caught that MUCH sooner, but that's my opinion.
If I couldn't start threads in the TF...... What the hell would I post? :dunno_white:

The tard farm should stay the way it is. Most know to keep their comments in check, in the other areas.
anyone posting in the TF knows a the rules. and should keep away if the fire gets to hot.
being able to say whatever you want is the american way. Don't let one Cornhole ruin it for eveyone.
When I saw how the whole R6 thread was going I stayed out of it. maybe others should have too. maybe not. whatever its the TF.
BTW -
Pastrana you made me proud with this one. -->"Oh and she has been f%$ked...alot..by me...thanks for the concern... :laugh: :laugh:
You GO girl with your bad self!!

no offense, bro...but keep in mind Our moderators are
"NOT" getting paid to do this, and I for one am quite impressed with the job they have been doing.
Plus it was in the tard farm...They aren't supposed to step in.

Everyone else posts all the motorcycle stuff I want to post...
The wife doesn't like posing... So, it takes some work... :cry:
No one wants to hear about my band.
So... I'm left with posting stupid sh!t in the TF. :dunno_white:
Plus the posts get deleted after a while... So, there's no evidence. :icon_mrgreen:

Wha? Dude... Mods can do whateverthehell they want... I don't think a rule of "Hands Off" is a good idea...
But, a policy of "We don't care enough, so get over it you child"
is a good idea... Once the mods care enough to step in, they should. Just kill the thread with a comment like, "STFU" ... and... Done.

Your right.
I didn't mean as a rule they aren't supposed to, I mean we are all adults and know the TF rules. MODS
shouldn't have to step in.
Yeah thats what I meant.
I am such a brown nose. :nono: Maybe one day I will join the moderator ranks and learn the secret gstwin hand shake.

er...yeah your right..
we are should all be adults and know the TF rules.
The Tard Farm was a great idea. To me it lets me know who the idiots are or who just likes to have fun or the people who know what they are talking about so when I see all there postings in the other regular forums I know which posts to skip and which ones are worth reading, because I actually read a heck of a lot here and do enjoy the GStwin.com GS500 Message Forum. :cheers:
( P.S. The post whoring in the T.F. should not count toward the stats, that the only thing I would change if possible)

Stats don't matter... People that think they do should be to post ONLY in the TF. :laugh: (Says one of the worst post whores :laugh:)
On the subject of the Tard Farm.........I miss Old Man Wilson, its about time he came back with some new material. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Yeah your right, back when I was a noob to the forum I though the stars meant something more, but now that I know more about who's who, I know better. I read your posts cuz most of the time there funny and you seem to know what talking about. :cheers: Most of the time! :laugh:

You got me confused with someone else...
I've posted 4,000 posts about nothing... About 900 that said "++," " :laugh:," or " :thumb:."
Maybe 10 posts that said anything worthwhile.
On ride-ny you have to request access to their "tard farm" Then only those people with access can get in there, sometimes it keeps things from getting way out of hand because non-regulars can't get in there to keep fighting, but i think in this situation we'd all just request access anyway :laugh:
and 3imo I'm glad you liked that...i shouldn't post drunk...
Opinion:
The Tard Farm should remin unmoderated and users should be allowed to post whatever they want in there. If things get out of hand, they should stay in the Tard Farm and no threats should be made against those posters by the moderators for things said unless those type of things get out of the TF. If that wasn't clear, then try this: no one should be banned for things said in the TF. If you don't want to be offended, then don't read the posts in there.
The FZ1 board has something similar called the War Room.
If you're offended by stuff in the TF, then don't read the threads in there, it's as simple as that. You can be responsible for the things you read and don't read, and the Tard Farm should be left alone, I think.
How about this:
Many forums that I frequent have a similar area to our TF. Many of these just make it so that any posts that you make in the tard farm are not added to your total post count, thus cutting down on the stupid "post whore" posts.
Just an Idea...
Just keep it the way it is. Besides; where else would AJ and TadMC post :laugh: :laugh:
