Gregg Posted June 19, 2010 Posted June 19, 2010 I will not stand for this anymore. Stop picking fights on the forum. I do not play favorites to anyone. I have a lot of patience with everything in life. But, you have pushed my buttons too many times. I banned for a week the parties at play. Do it again, and I will delete the accounts, posts, threads, and permanently ban the IPs you use. Enough of this. This is about building models, not calling out people Oh, Bobbie said that you told Frank that Jim said that blah blah blah This is not the fifth grade. GROW UP. Build models, and keep your petty ego's and fights in your own email inbox and trash cans. I don't want to see that here. I don't care if you don't like someone. Put them on your Ignore list. Is it that hard to do? Go to LogMeIn.com and send me all your account info and I will log in and control your computer to show you how to do it. ENOUGH Go build models, and share the talents that you have. I don't care if you think someone lied. SO WHAT
Joe Nunes Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 It's about time...and this move can result in a much nicer forum for all those who want to enjoy the hobby of model car building. Thanks, Gregg. Joe
Gregg Posted June 20, 2010 Author Posted June 20, 2010 Oh good it's not me... Shoot. I missed one.....
el Presidente Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 (edited) Good deal Gregg, let's remember it's a hobby, keep it fun Edited June 20, 2010 by el Presidente
Gregg Posted June 20, 2010 Author Posted June 20, 2010 Good deal Gregg, let's remember it's a hobby, keep it fun Man, I missed another one....
Gregg Posted June 20, 2010 Author Posted June 20, 2010 just makin sure Another one, man oh man HARRY!!!! HELP!!!! hehehehehehehe
Gregg Posted June 20, 2010 Author Posted June 20, 2010 I take that photo as a personal insult to my disability, folically challenged.
gbdolfans Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 Hi Gregg I don't I have done anything. Just making sure. Really folks,this is a great hobby.Just think of what we do.We take some molded plastic,put some paint on it(some better than others),glue it together and enjoy the process. Gregg,I have no problem with you,Harry and Pat taking a stronger hand in the posts.The three of you have good judgment,and we need to just have a good time here. As someone said in another thread,it is amazing that a flaming thread gets 4 pages and a GREAT build of a car gets 4 posts. We have great traders,and very helpful modelers that could help all of us do better.I wish we could set up something where someone would take a segment of our hobby and give us a tutorial on it or some background on a type of model. I am done with this long post and going to build something!! Thanks to everyone on here and for reading this.
David G. Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 Thank you. Hopefully this will drive the point home for those who need it.
PatRedmond Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 How big of a mess do you have to be to get suspended/banned from a message board that caters to grown-ups building plastic cars and trucks ?!
Harry P. Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 I think Gregg intended this to be an FYI sort of thing, not an invitation to comment on it. There's no comment necessary. If you are one of the people Gregg banned for the week, you already know who you are. If you're not one of them, there's really no need to comment here on their situation.
Gregg Posted June 21, 2010 Author Posted June 21, 2010 Suspension of privileges has been lifted. Now, here's the thing If I see, or hear, about this childish behavior starting up again, I will not suspend or ban those parties. I will delete your account, delete all your posts, and ban your IP, you won't be able to even view the forum. Just imagine all of your great how-to's, tips, tricks, threads with your beautiful builds being lost forever because you don't follow some simple rules, and common courtesy. I am sick and tired of these kindergarten antics. I really don't want to be so hard-handed, but I feel I have to. This is one thing I give Mr. Haught credit for, keeping their forum under a tight and orderly format. Leave your ego at the door, or your printer. I don't want PM's, emails, phone calls on this. Seriously, I really don't care! It's a forum for model car building, not slamming others, calling someone a liar, pushing your ego to it's limit, and beyond, or seeing how far you can pee. I know that if someone gets banned, and all those great posts/threads are gone forever, this will be a true loss for the hobby, But, it has to be done. There is no other way I have given everyone numerous warnings, and have been turning the other cheek for way to long. I know I am really laid back, but I feel I am being taken advantage of. Now, it's time to lay down the law.
