Exactly, but maybe just a little more with the clowns would be better. How about a limit on how many posts you can start in a day or week so we don't have to sift through 20 stupid trolling posts that some people feel the need to start on a daily basis.

The board is what you make it. Stay out of the pissing matches, ignore the keyboard billy-badasses who take shots at you. Play by the rules.

I come here for the news, discussion, and the humor.

I'll say this.... from what I see, ML is a lot more "relaxed" on the mayhem around here than GuyB....who ran this place like Twitter....anyone/anything he dissagreed with....*POOF*. LOL GuyB clipped me during the early days of COVID because of those discussions. Heavy handed...probably....but I was breaking the rules....but so were others (on the opposite side of the argument).

Not a suck up comment.... thanks to ML for all he does around here.

You guys dumbgeon his post which was the start of a good post. Show us ur man cave because of a FJB flag in the background... Yeah I'm gonna agree with XR70 now, that's pretty petty. Maybe move it to non moto if your basis is its not moto related. But to dump it like that yeah kinda dumb.
But if that's the worst thing that happens around here now. It's still a net plus to me.

Politics in moto-related is a no go. It was going to head there with that. I have a couple policies I uphold, not many, but I try to stick to them.
I agree politics in moto is no go. Should have dumped it in non moto and let it go. If it gets ridiculous dump it off then. That's all I was sayin.
Place has been alot better around here overall.

This place was becoming a ghost town last few years, from the amount of clicks to comments being deleted this forum was going down fast. People just got fed up and stopped posting.There is definitely more of a relaxed and fun vibe here now.

Find it strange grown adults take it as a badge of honor being kicked off Facebook or other internet boards, but I guess to each their own…

On a rare serious note.... the vital forum has done incredibly well considering this is the Facebook era.... I would have thought fb would have killed it by now.... but it has not.... props to all us old fers keeping this thing lively.... hope it makes it another ten years....

As far as raw quality.... imo... probably better than ever before... mods do a solid job here overall.... they let enough slide to keep it fun.... while clipping those that truly need to go....

Nope Sloan may be kind of annoying sometimes, I honestly think most the vitards are making a much bigger deal out of him then he is but I'm good on not having Guy Lib back in control. Place is the best it's been in awhile.
I agree with the making a much bigger deal out of him than he is comment 100 percent. No one is forced to click on his or anyone's posts.

Exactly, but maybe just a little more with the clowns would be better. How about a limit on how many posts you can start in a day or week so we don't have to sift through 20 stupid trolling posts that some people feel the need to start on a daily basis.

Yeah , pretty much this. I see some debates going back and forth like normal. If anything , it's better than it was just 6 months ago. Less censorship and people get to speak their minds , unless they go nuts ( hey Dave!! ).

There is a real simple solution if you are uncomfortable here. Either don't open the thread that may piss you off , or just log off and come back when you think it's safe. There is this thing called " Free will "..........maybe use it!

That was actually incredible suspension , but because they used those two words together , and that didn't mean what you and some other's " wished " it meant , they changed the name. Never mind that the brother's last name was White and they built killer suspension. Their last names were obviously racist.

I think all the blame on Gibby is way over-rated. There was way more stupidity back then that he dealt with.

It always kinda confuses me when someone calls this place 'woke' or 'left'.. It seems to me the users are way more inclined to be 'leaning' right in here.. At least that's my observation anyway

Is he wrong? People will literally give their country away and squander the opportunities of all their family and neighbors over fear of being "racist". Open borders is a tool for the rich to get richer and the rest of us to suffer and you're falling for it. You're a canuck you should know this by now. A jew is going to sell all the homes in your neighborhood to a Chinese oligarch and give your job to an Indian who will work for half as much and won't think twice about it.

If there was illegals lining up to do his job at half price he would care a little more.

I wonder if I can sneak into Mexico and get paid to make babies.

I think it is fine these days. If you don't like a poster or a topic then ignore it right? JSloan casts his bait and he gets multiple bites every time lol. Some of his posts are bench racing worthy and some are dumb/stink bait. There are a few other posters that drop a duece in the forum rather often as welI. I don't purposely cast any bait but I post some topics that go over like a lead balloon and or they get completely taken out of context. Usually then the downvotes and dissenting opinions snowball downhill fast lol. It's just entertainment to me Wink
