Something needs to be done about the fishing and just useless "contributions" to moto. Im tired of making good points that will never be read because the threads get Dumbgeoned due to the moronic posts by some.
I stopped comin here as much because of it...a little fishin is amusing but it has gotten out of hand. I've done plenty of my own (not only here) but come on, give it a rest!.

You guys are right.....it does get old after a while. You try and start a thread on something off the main subjects everyone wants to talk about , like Stewart / Kyle P wreck , or the reed and Stewart thing........or just anything that happened "that weekend"..........and it gets pulled into a big pile of shit. The fishing shit gets old.....but what's even worse are guys that turn the thread into the exact same kind of thread you were trying to stay away from. We have to take it the way it is i guess. For Steve and the other mods.....it has to get tiring trying to keep this place in check.

Thing is, many times people are trying to throw one line zingers thinking they are funny but they are just crude and unnecessary.

More thought, less starving comedian.

Well....i can be blamed for things like that to. It usually is because i have a ton of coffee in me or i'm trying to lighten the thread up a little. Kind of like driving a bus heading for wreck.....you try and grab the wheel to keep her on the road a few more feet....ya know?

It's starting to spill over into non moto as well. Maybe if we ignore them they will go away. I wonder if everyone can ignore the bait and stupidity long enough for it to work. I haven't been here all that long but I was smart enough to lurk for a while and figure out the board before posting. I wish all the noobs would do the same.

what about an option to personally click people for your own viewing? Or an option to red flag a post so that it goes to a mods inbox for quicker review? Or maybe 3 clicks and your out?

Have a subforum for Noobs, like a lites class.. then if you don't blow it there, you can move up.

At the risk of being flooded with PMs, you can always PM a mod with your concerns.

It's driven Terry so crazy he puts nails in his tires and goes out riding on the ice to get away from it.
