Noob hazing goes on everywhere but the only time noobs get smashed here is when they jump in both feet, guns blazing and post their asses off about their own personal brilliance or some other earth shattering gibberish. The guys that ease their way in are mostly welcomed with the odd STFU.

My 2 rules would be;
don't start a topic which slams another poster (unless in jest)

and don't bring anyones kids or family into your battles.

A chat room for race night might stop a lot of repetitive posts also

Ask EID to drop a dead screen name and it just might happen.

Don't bring another posters name into a thread they haven't posted in if your only goal is to bait them.

If you have a personal beef with another poster, email them and take it up that way. I could personally give two shits if flarider and Farva have a beef with eachother, and it doesn't contribute anything.

Realistically, you're never going to be able to come up with a set of rules that are flexible enough. A few rules ... like banning multiple IPs / usernames could work in keeping a wanker from coming back right away after they've been clicked.

Usually most of us OGs will eventually jump on someone that is really over the edge but that doesn't always work either. Gibby, you're just going to have to continue to be our benevolent dictator. That seems to work the best.

But I would encourage you to show a little less mercy. It's your site and we are all guests. If someone is acting like a fockstik just pull the trigger. No explanations needed. It's not a democracy here. Anyone that don't like it is free to go elsewhere.

Sorry I have extra time on my hands because I have a colonoscopy coming up. I will try not to ever need the upper and lower insides looked at ever again. EngineIceDave, and as sully said you could try a PM.

1. No slandering of any sort.
2. No more multiple usernames. Publish IP addresses so we all see them per user.
3. On race nights/days, make one thread for each class only. Wading through 100 new threads during a race is bullshit.
4. GuyB once mentioned a "click vote". If a user gets so many votes, CLICK. They're gone.
5. Some users need to start using a bit of respect. Not only to each other, but when posting about riders. Habitual baiting is really getting old.
6. If/when someone (anyone) sticks their foot in their mouth, they better be prepared to taste it for a while and not cry when someone reminds them of the errs of their ways.
7. Lighten up.

I'll work on some tomorrow...but in the meantime, I'd like some feeback from you guys as well. What would you like to see in the posting rules to keep things civil here?

Once they're done, I'll sticky them and leave it at the top of the forum.
1. I would call them posting guidelines and common sense.
2. I think if you just blew more post out of the water people would think twice or at least once before they open there keyboard. DELETE DELETE DELETE DELETE DELETE
3. I Dont think peoples freedom of speech should be controlled to much, because then whats the point..?
4. JUST GIVE BOOBBYM THE CLICKER...AND PEOPLES HOME ADDRESS'S THAT WILL STRAIGHTEN SHIZZNIT RIGHT UP... IMHO

Why have rules when the same people that get away with crap will still get away with crap regardless of whether there are rules or not? My suggestion is to get a few moderators and give people a warning or two and then boot them if they receive more than two warnings in a month.

How about every thread needs a pic of some hot chick.
Like this.

How about a special rule about banning a person who posts with multiple user names and talking themselves, thus spamming to a whole other level? Like you know.....get them some psychiatric treatment and give them a friend or 2 to have them learn some socialization skills. Smile

Ive used some "bad language" here before, but it was alot less offensive than Bobby M's
stuff. After reading the forum for 2yrs and posting here for 4 months I realize Bobbys passion for the sport and I realize thats why he is still here. I have opinions and I like to express them so people open there eyes when they read them or laugh which is what I am really after. I really do not care for Larry Brooks antics and would tell him to his face if I had the opportunity. These are the only guidlines I have realized, if you post it....................be ready to say the same words to a persons face.

1. post without the Gnarly swear words ie: cum and variations of...............

2. DONT post it unless you would say it to the persons face.

If other guidlines come up I guess Ill walk the line.
