I vote we bring back Curious George as the head moderator. Wait, chief moderator...king moderator...moderator in charge? Whateva.

That George is some hero.
 
Not that I really want to point this back to the original topic, but seriously folks we need to grow up. A thread gets closed so we are going to create a another thread to call a mod out?????

Politics is a touchy subject. For many of us regulars that discuss in those threads, we are civil, have good discussion, and yes we do sometimes change each other minds. But for every one person that can do that, another 3 will use attacks in their comments completely demeaning another point of view. Now while I subscribe to the "if you don't like it, don't participate" idea, and I think complaining to a mod about a political thread is stupid, that is a mods job. When someone complains, shut it down before it goes too far, or lock it before it gets to that point.

We don't need to restrict eveything on the site to strictly Marauder, but until we can prove that we can be adult in the political threads they will get locked or not exist at all. I won't call out particular members, cause that's not my style, I just don't take the bait and leave it be. But others can't resist and thats why they spiral out of control

Mike and all the Mods have done a great job, llok at the meets, the get togethers, the regional car clubs, the exchange of information, the joke threads, and all the funny stuff that Casey posts. It's family.

I don't agree with calling Mike out publicly, should of done a pm
 
I've had a few postings deleted, but chose not to complain and try to stay within the rules. I learned my lesson at another site where I became so pissed that I accused the moderators of using Gestapo type tactics in closing/deleting threads. Nothing happened right away.............

















Then

















Two weeks later my Aunt disappeared while touring Germany. Never seen again!
 
As long as we are on topic I will chime in.

I completely disagree with threads being closed. I really do not care what the subject is and if I don't care to discuss I will not open the thread, simple as that. I do not understand why we cannot discuss whatever we want. We sure pick and choose everything else. Lots of you do not like Import cars, so you don't buy them it's as simple as that. The option is still there, but you can just carry on your way and not let it effect you.

I agree that Mike does have a tendency to put in the last word (which is usually his own point of view) and close the thread, when in reality the comment he usually says isn't pleasant. Like someone hanging up the phone during an argument.

If the thread is going somewhere I would let it burn out. The threads that get closed are literally the hot topics. So be it. The last few times I have had a sit down with members at a meet they have political discussions. I tune myself out and see what's around or hear what music is playing. Same as I do here. If I don't like the thread I don't chime in.

The threads seem to get closed if the opinion of the MOD (Not just Mike) is different then the thread starter or the way the thread is going. That's the bottom line.
