Honest question here, what in the heck are you trying to accomplish?

Since your re-instatement, your actions and posts have generated more email complaints than all other website and user complaints combined each day...and by a large margin. You said you'd shy away from non-moto, politics, covid, but you're just stuck in here going for every polarizing topic you can get into.

I mean this as an honest question, do you want to spend your retirement just riling up people in a forum? Calling everyone snowflakes? If this is it, you might need to find a different place to hang out.

As the famous saying goes... "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result."

What most people don't realize is Dave is really a MAGA republican. He just takes the opposite side of any topic for entertainment. Smile

Not much to say in moto

I wound up in here, and why I kept checking back, was because the thread about the MX guy, former member here, who was shot by an old man in a theatre 8 years ago.
That thread wound up in here.
So, I had to keep coming back to non-moto to check on it and I started participating because I was here.

What exactly are they complaints about? Did someone actually complain to you that I called them a "snowflake?" Seriously? That isn't snowflakey? Really?

What have I done to cause harm or "rile anyone up?" Because my opinion differs?

What exactly have I done wrong, can you point it out? Is there a specific post I have done that needed removal that I am unaware of?

Or is this simply I am on the "wrong side" and no one's allowed a opposing view?

I admit, I am confused.

I'm offended by downvotes. I think the names shouldn't be hidden like they were originally. Smile

He hasn’t done anything. People may not like him or his opinion, but censorship is wrong.

Thinking about this, I am disappointed.

I have called no one a name, other than the single snowflake, and I thought that was soft enough y'all could take it.

I have not fought with anyone. I have expressed my thoughts and an opinion, but I didn't go on and on, as in the past.

If y'all want to queue up a list of topics and the approved opinions to discuss, l'd love to see it.

Not being sarcastic, just really disappointed in y'all

Sad

You could be right, but my mind went the other way.

I think the people who are sending e-mails about Dave’s posts are the same people that give him a downvote for living.

He could say “Monday is a day of the week”, and people will come crawling out of the woodwork to float him a downvote.

The intarwebs are making us all regress to morans.

Wait, if they're supposed to thumbs down all your posts, how can they thumbs up one? It's like that classic oxymoron, "I am lying right now." Wink

There are a number of topics in non-moto I have participated in that are not political, like the F1 thread, Fire Power question, Today I learned, and a good night's sleep....those are not political, but they are in non moto and I did participate in them.

Not everything is political

Well, Michael posted the new rules and snowflake is right out, so I am guilty after the fact.

That said, now that the rules are laid out, and emailing the mods when someone makes me mad or has a different opinion is acceptable, I will be emailing copies of every single transgression to the moderators.


{sarcasm}



I am so disappointed in so many of you...

The discussions have been actually very civil. Almost as if the regime change calmed some of the storm.

I shall Dumbgoen my own thread.

Dave, I'm being serious, just a tick calmer. You're on a better track but your past couple meltdowns have definitely left a lot of negativity surrounding you and your topics. Good luck and enjoy retired life.

As I stated when I came back. Everyone gets a redo...hell, I got one. I'm just trying to keep the sanity around here without bans. I don't want to repeat the past.

Since you’re giving redos can you give Racer92 back his account? I’m not sure if the pm system is still a bit off but, he’s sent you an email or two.

I have done nothing wrong.

If they don't like me, that's on them

They attack me, I'll email you...every single time

Every name I am called, you'll know

Don't know if my opinion on the issue matters but from what I have seen it's always someone else throwing the first punch. In some cases it almost derailed an otherwise good thread. I've been on the opposite side of a great many issues from Dave over the last 20 years or so and shit got a bit heated from time to time but it never occurred to me to issue a complaint. It also never occurred to me that other members of this board actually do complain. Fucking sad.
Dave has always been one of the more prolific posters but it does seem like he is hovering over his keyboard, looking for anywhere to generate a spark and might appear a bit obsessive. Maybe a good idea to roll off the throttle a bit.

BTW, thanks for the additional gasoline you gave them by throwing me under the bus, but it's all good.

You just added more fuel to their fire

Thanks

Racer got the boot? I didn't hear about that. Never really seen him have a meltdown before.

You dug that whole with your own posting habits over the years. I'm not the reason people are against you, you are.

What's the full account? Racer92 isn't bringing anything up.

Michael, as the mod, you posted this publicly for all to read.

You meant to throw me under and add fuel to their fire.

No problem, I can deal with it.

You could have sent a PM and you have my email.

It's all good

Have a good weekend, Michael

I meant to prove a point and yes, I went for a public point. Good luck and have a good weekend.
