Only thing I would like to see is for people to stop embedding videos. There is no way this just effects "my'" office, home and laptop. It locks things up and takes forever to get them to open. It's no different if we just post the email address and it doesn't lock anything up.
This would have to be a site coding issue if it is an issue at all. I personally have not seen the problem but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. If it does exist it would be either because the coders of this site are not generating the proper HTML to embed the video or there is something wrong on your end with your flash installation (and I'm not saying that is the case). I would definitely file a bug report to someone on this site (GuyB is the only person I know of unless he can post another technical contact) and point them to the exact page with the video that is locking up your system so they can trouble-shoot.

Rules of Conduct: 1. No ad hominem attacks. 2. No slanderous, hateful, threatening comments. 3. No Racist comments. This forum is not any one member’s personal...
Rules of Conduct:

1. No ad hominem attacks.
2. No slanderous, hateful, threatening comments.
3. No Racist comments.

This forum is not any one member’s personal playground. If people want to make personal attacks they should get deleted permanently.

The word "Fuck" probably doesn't upset most mx'ers, i.e., "I broke my fucking arm today!". But when one poster calls another poster a "Fucking asshole", that's when things tend to spin out of control here. Too often people make personal attacks against fellow posters rather than addressing the argument. The end result is a lot of name calling.

Eliminate the name calling, insults, and personal attacks.

You should really just create an Official________ (whatever race just happened) thread and click anyone that starts another drama filled thread over the same thing.

lot of posts about not posting worthless/useless crap. Maybe some Vital members who abhor that could go back and check and see how much useless crap they've posted in this thread.

Since this is Gibby's thread that seems to be brainstorming about rules...wonder why so many feel obligated to tell people "how it is"?

I think the old rules are a pretty good basis.

I think hypocrisy is a major problem, but no rule is going to change that.

maybe the board boss just needs a couple anal retentives to play baby sitter in here and it would clean up fast.

of course that isn't a job many would want.

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.
for the most part everything goes along pretty cool here at vmx ..until somebody says something real stupid that deserves a reply. the bait casting posts and the general "hit the cage with a stick routine" isn't no big deal. as for the making fun of the riders post that is lame. go ahead and make fun of em...but if you do you ain't a motocrosser, and if yer not a motocrosser/dirtbiker what the fuck are you doing here? just leave.

somebody made the comment the other day that went something like "people make fun of other sports, football etc, and rip on TO and call Cutler a whiner and whatever. This is true...they aren't athletes either. Just douchedbags on a tv screen or drinking a beer in a bar. respect the sport and respect the racers. saying alessi can't ride sx whoops as good as others is a fact. go ahead and say it...but to say he doesn't have heart or chad is a crybaby and a quitter or whatever. if a rider makes a mistake...a rookie mistake go ahead and discuss it...doesn't mean he's a novice though. Take LB for example...larry doesn't have the whole web deal down yet....he is too busy to sit in front of these fuckin things and made/makes a few mistakes along the way. but ti does't mean larry is a fuckass or a loser or a whiner and a general asshole. go ahead and talk to larry sometime...he's a good dude and a former badass mxer...still can kick ass to this day probably.

People that want to come to this kinda place like vital love motocross...one way or another. they race, they watch the races and ride or their family or friends ride. They're not dipshits on espn or wannabees at happy hour. so show a little respect to these guys...and if you don't give a fuck about the riders you can sure care about how a parent or sibling responds to the shit talking. It hurts them...i know that much. I am not perfect by any means either. i coulda donned a thinking cap a time or two before i posted before...no doubt.

another thing...i don't start shit here..but i sure will respond to shit talk. Smile


as for new rules...let's hear em. one thing i came up with talking to tfs a few years ago was sub forums.
if there are a few asswipes, myself included...cluttering up the topics arguing amongst themselves stuck in a rut, banish em to a subforum where only those few people can post and reply for a couple of days, . but make it so others can watch and look in on em...hehehe.Smile might work.

and if you don't understand my bombastic replys to ignorant topics by now you never will.
btw....hanging with around a bunch of friends we always talk shit and bust each others balls and it's all in good fun. we crack ourselves up...so don't take the name calling personal. Smile

carry on folks.....I am surprised i can even post this. Smile

The rules should be what ever GuyB says they are and if you dont follow them then your out. In order to make this a positive and benefical place to come talk about mx it needs to be ran with an iron fist GuyB. Democracy is not the key here with this idea. If people cant controll there typing and be adults, then they should be forced to move on.
