Can I say something... some or all of us listen to matthes! With that being said he’s a badass dude with no filter! He don’t hide anything or give two shits what anyone thinks, I personally love that. So why is vital so hesitant on stuff? God forbid we offend someone! Ps guy b Steve and I have different political views but he’s gnarly, that’s what the people want.

What was the offense in the post? Having an opinion? Isn't that what forums are for? Don't we all do those on here in some context?

How is Chad Reed going to do this year?

How is AC9 going to do after he heals up?

See those are asking for an opinion, sure Jim is a member of the moto community, so shouldn't he get criticized for some of his stuff too without banning the person having an opinion on him?

I see nothing triggering above Grant's comment. The worst thing I see is that he expressed his opinion and called the guy a "dolt"... by definition that means "a dull person". I mean how many times did Jim call Lorenzo Locurcio by the name "La-crease-o"?



How about this guy using these words and gets off scott free. Do people even get warnings or is it black and white, on and off, binary. If a thread is offensive why not just delete the thread?
I missed that. Stillwelding's comments aren't cool...but I'd also need more context. I also didn't get an email complaining about it. Instead drifto got the chance to continue his Holley rant.

Looking at the time stamp, it also looks like it was during race time...or just before. I was working on Pit Bits, not playing admin.

I'm not sure if you're drifto (though I see you're in close proximity). How about a link to the rest of the thread?

Having an opinion is one thing. Having it in a reasonable manner is another. In my estimation, the comments on Holley are about two steps beyond the line.

Ok, I got one...
Not necessarily a moderation problem, but still seems to come up often with no solution
Although I have no problem with getting or sending PM’s, there is a lot of people that do...

It would be a bonus to be able to access previous PM’s, as there is no way to do so, that I know of. Correct me if I’m wrong !

I think a lot of people sign up with Vital with an email they no longer use. This is a problem for many on here.

This is the thread where I put drifto in timeout. I will admit that I should have deleted Stillwelding's comment at the time as well (it's now deleted). As for drifto, though, it was just going to be a timeout. I was going to unlock his account sometime this week before Atlanta and notify him at that time.

Sounds like he's already hooked up with a new account......

True, if your mind tells you to spew hate and discord...you'll get targeted and rightly so. If you say, "I'm not a fan of this or that"...you are cool. If you say, "I hate"....chances are you are headed down the wrong road. I once replied in a bike theft thread that, "I hate fucking thieves". Gibby replied, "Then stop fucking them". He was just being snarky about my poor grammar but it made me think about my verbiage. My point is...think before you speak.

Isn't it "Cliff's notes"?
I think removing the apostrophe is accepted now, but it still needs the "S".

A little Falconism.

Yeah. If that new account is him (I haven't looked into it, but it sounds like GuyB took a gander), then he won't be coming back at all.

Sure thing. Ignore the criticism. Seems to be working fine.

In the early days, we didn’t require email validation, but it’s been in place for many years now.

All PMs are sent via email. They don’t exist on the site, so you’re right...your results will vary depending on how up to date you (or your recipient’s) email address is.

Is it time for his yearly or bi-yearly parole? If so, we should have an official pool on how long he can hold it together.

Eh. This place works. I wouldn’t change much in how it’s run. You can’t argue with success.
Anyone doesn’t get that, it costa about $250 to open a site. See how easy it is.

I’m not not ignoring it. It’s just not getting the result that you want. You have your opinion in how things work (or should work), and I have mine.
