Gas Prices out of Control!

Paid $3.27 for regular in NJ on Saturday (not Devil Girl), and they paid a guy to pump it for me.
That's .30 /gal. cheaper than pumping it myself 10 miles away in PA.

The whole thing, nationally, is just packed with thick, creamy WTF.

It was brief, quick and disappointing, but for many reasons including those sighted in this thread, Some have decided the boiling point has been reached.
Again as sighted before when we have threads that are allowed to call for armed overthrow of the government, calling our President every name in the book and preach a select point of view that not all agree with, but we can't start a thread with a clean picture (meaning very work safe) that says boosts gets you laid, well priorities are out of whack. I've felt that for a long time, and as evident by a departure, I'm not the only one.

Somewhere along the line we forgot to have fun, and got more into to drama.

How many times in the last year have we had "look at me threads" complaining about one thing or another. I'm guilty of it as well.
There are pot stirrers that post things just to get a rise, and people take the bait.

More times than not the sins of the few have caused punishment for the many.

As such, in a classy move, with no ceremony, with no complaining, and with no look at me thread started, a staple of this site has bid farewell.

DOOM... COME BACK!

AS one of the few who have actually gotten paid to write... (Admittedly not very much $--but published book, 28 monthly articles, book jackets, etc), I can honestly say that you never know what will spark the red pen of site managers or editors... And it can't be taken as a personal affront to the writer.

Jokes, fun, mirth etc... Sometimes strike the wrong cord in the receiver, which has little to do with the sender... But does not diminish the editor either.

Don't sweat the petty stuff...while it stings to get edited, deleted, audited, etc... most of the time it is simply procedural, not a personal thing. Many threads take a hard right down a one way dirt road... Someone is charged with bringing us back.

From my limited perspective, only a year as a viewer, you are an integral part of the community. Your voice is far too important to hear, to be silenced so easily. Don't hung it up on us simply because of basic editing etc...

We need the community to thrive and prosper.

PS on thread... From Tennessee to Ca the most expensive shocker of a fill up was just one tank from Nevada to Ca down by Lake Havesu.... Jumped $20 per tank. I almost ***** myself!

Not true, Brad. More drama, yes, but still fun. The site continues to evolve, maybe not always in the way we'd each like, but there's still much more good than "bad"; if not, nobody would be hanging around and posting up. BTW, if you wanted to see drama should have been around in the "Darkside" days...:shake:

What punishment? I've had posts and threads closed/deleted, some rightly so, others, :dunno:. It's a moderated site and the owners can do as they wish; their game, their rules, nothing new here.

I really hope Jake comes back, he's a great guy and a lot of fun.
 
With no Doom..... who's gonna wish us Happy Birthday? :dunno: :alone:

I know I've hijacked this thread but FWIW Mods, I saw the picture (drawing) and was not at all offended or even concerned. I personally would not have thought it warranted deletion on those grounds....unless perhaps there were numerous complaints? As a woman, I've read and seen MUCH more offensive stuff posted here by other members but even then I am rarely overly bothered....and apparently neither is anyone else....because those posts aren't deleted.

I do understand that it is the prerogative of the Mods to determine what is not appropriate and it is a thankless job at times, I'm sure. (I appreciate that the general tone of this site is "female friendly." ) For the most part our members (male or female) are "class acts" and follow basic rules of decorum while interacting on a public forum. Doom is always a Class Act....with a wicked sense of humor maybe...but a great personality and someone who adds a lot to this community, on-line and in person. Just wanted to say his deleted post did not offend me.
 
Doom I think will be back. Give him some time to collect his thoughts

sent from a Samsung Galaxy far far away...
 
I have many friends on this site and a few that I'd consider close friends. Jake falls in the close friend category. I'm not going to get into the reasons because it's not my place. Hopefully we will see him back before long.

Sorry for hijacking this thread.
