Spending less time on FABO
Now on many sites, Superdart would have just earned himself a permanent ban for attacking the site's mods and admins..
But not here. Why?
Because we do our best to leave the lines of communication as open and fair as we can. Now, sometimes that means there are comments that are not the best. Sometimes, they only SEEM to be out of line for some. Other times, they are out of line.
Staff is in a difficult position. We dont want to be censors, and avoid doing so. I cant tell you how many times I have seen someone say something, and it came out wrong or was "under-worded" so that it seems impolite. It happens a lot and can be unintentional many times.
Then there are egos, which can be and often are, bruised so very easily and also often unintentionally. Simple differing opinions can easily, through just one word, be turned into wars between the participants.
We arent perfect, and we dont read each and every post. We just cant. But in general, we really try not to ban people, delete posts because of what we "think" the poster was trying to say, etc. We try not to be parents here because none of you are children. I dont believe it's the mod's job to sanitize everything posted.
Staff works hard to try to give everyone a place that is generally friendly, helpful and beneficial for all.
Thank you. We try, but we're not perfect.
Do you really think if we were about personal vendettas that YOU would still be here? Not meaning to be offensive, but you can be quite a pain in the *** at times. As I said before, on most other sites, you would be long gone already.
For all the complaining you do, I have to ask. Why havent you left of your own accord since you apparantly dont like how I run the site? There are other sites out there, why are you here complaining constantly? Why when you get asked not to break a rule by a mod do you run around looking for others to tattle on?
Im pretty humble about most things, but really the rest of the staff and I deserve a Nobel Prize for patience after having to deal with you.
The original post wasnt about attacking the mods and I have alot of respect for "Mopar to ya" because he posted something intelligent and well thought out about how the site has a bunch of inghting at times, while you try to reduce it to how the staff are picking on you.
Grow up. YOU are exactly what the op is referring to. Everything with you becomes a childish exchange.
My apologies to the other members - I dont generally like to air this stuff in public
Yes certainly you can, just click the report a post button and we will have a look at it and if we agree we'll have a heart to heart. Or just PM one of us with your concern and any link to the example. :violent1:
To clarify - THIS:is the report button...
thanks too you all i cant find a post by adam to add in here compters running slow . But i will say it agin keep it going yall im not leaving :cheers:I want to thank the Mods too, especially Joey and Adam, I don't know how they just don't hit the "power down" button sometimes especially the comment concerning our percieved Vendetta against StrokerScamp which was crap by the way. How does the saying go, "Most of mans ill's are brought on by himself" Anyway I just wanted to say that for the last 2 months I've been away from a high speed connection so I only looked in every once and awhile and did notice that over the last 6 weeks, but for a few minor blowouts, you all conducted yourselves in an almost hospitable manor (almost all). That alone makes the Mods job easier so therefore thank you.
