We go through this periodically. It's every couple of months. Usually it's the mods, but yesterday it was Garm for some reason.

You know the saying "this too shall pass"

Can we possibly get back to regular forum business now, lol ? (yeah, right, Ryan!! ;)

KCALB SIRAY · 09-21-2010, 02:06 PM

CAN YOU DIG IIIIIIIT?!?!?!?!?!

cali yaris · 09-21-2010, 02:30 PM

Yeah, yesterday was trippy. Getting flamed for not offering enough parts, ouchies.

if they are being a little brash pm them. we really dont need this kind of stuff on yarisworld. Unity is essential in here

unity is not essential, in fact on an opinion board, it would really make things boring...

Some of you may think this is a power trip. Call it what you like, doesn't matter. We just won't tolerate members creating a negative atmosphere in here and spoiling it for everybody else.

That part I like.

But it is good to have a thread on this too, just so there is one place for people to air it out, instead of it showing up everywhere.

*tomato* · 09-21-2010, 03:06 PM

Sure, that's ok .

There is also an official "birch, moan, rant" thread on here somewhere ;)

Altitude · 09-21-2010, 03:57 PM

Word to the wise, Don't Mess with The 'Mater!

Haven't been on a forum yet where someone didn't think the mods were abusing their power. Personally I think our mods to a great job.

For sure i guess it would if people didn't complains once in a while, and the mods can always get a laugh or two out of it.

Shame on you Garm not providing us the sedan owners with parts, wait... (starts going over mod parts purchased
Tru Garm,)
*HID projector kit
* Tanabe strut bar front one
* aFe CAI
* Red radiator hoses
* Vios side visors
* Vios rear visor
* OEM Thai spoiler
* LED Tails
* HK1 exhaust

And god only knows what else i got that I didn't think of

In second thought I take that back HOW DARE YOU SAY KING GARM DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH PARTS FOR THE SEDAN

cali yaris · 09-21-2010, 06:17 PM

no royalty in my blood I'm pretty sure of that.

cdydjded · 09-21-2010, 08:12 PM

In my experience with the mods, whenever there was an issue it was taking care of promptly & professionally.....

sickpuppy1 · 09-21-2010, 09:22 PM

I've not seen the mods here over-reacting at all yet. It's a fine line between giving freedom of speech to people and saying enough is enough. I'm a mod at another site and you have to pull those finger back at times. Its rough, one thing guests here have to realize,yes I said guests, is while the site does need members to survive, thsi is in reality not a total free for all. This site belongs to an individual of group of individuals and you are here because they allow you to be. Sound weird? Isnt the internet some big free party? No, its not. It a bunch of privately owned web sites and some allow us to post our own stuff and share ideas and become a community. Like this site does. Its a family affair so to speak, And with that, we have parent or authority figures. And also little kids that need to learn respect for other members of the family. Thats when they get knocked down a notch or put in time out. Learn the pecking order, respect for your brothers and sisters and obey the rules of the family or get put up for adoption, bisnitch!!!! (LMAO Sorry, got full of my self there,,,,,)

I hear you and agree 99%. But mods are not the problem here at all.....

Nexus1155 · 09-22-2010, 02:28 AM

No, mods are not the problem here at all. Of course they expect us all to be sheep and robots and not have opinions in some odd cases. I mean yesterday, my posts were deleted from the GUNS topic because someone made an anti-gun statement.

EH, what I said wasn't totally out of hand compared to what some people were saying , but if that person didn't post anti-gun in a gun topic it wouldn't have been an issue! If the thread was labeled "What are your thoughts on gun ownership" It would have been a different story. Am I mad that they did it? meh I could care less, just wish i didn't type so much, but i understood the cleanup had to be done.

The mods are doing their job, as strict as they sometimes may be, get off their nuts.

Please let us know via PM the next time you feel the post was unfairly deleted. We do make mistakes from time to time, but they're usually easy to repair.

*tomato* · 09-22-2010, 02:57 AM

Yeah, TK that reminds me, why did you delete my post? was it really off topic to say that I hadn't been at the range for ages? Shooting is an expensive hobby, so how was that statement in a gun thread off topic?!!

;)

(no worries, man
