wow guys ... don't you think if this was a mistake you might have informed us of that? telling forum members to chill the f' out is uncool.


wtf is going on here? why on earth are the mods/admin yelling at the forum members? Please just take one second and put yourself in our shoes. I'm not targeting just you zoom, but the people in charge around here have just turned rude. I'm sick of telling new people I find on the street to come here to join up and then having to deal with a multitude of complaints from those people not wanting to be here because of the way they are treated. I DON'T GET PAID TO BE HERE EITHER.

So, if the people in charge here would just INFORM us lowly peons we might stop asking the questions.

i didnt tell a forum member to chill i told Kevin to chill. he's my freind and i was irritated by his comment.

we didnt KNOW anything had been done( se my first post in this thread https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...5&postcount=24) til we were informed- me by PM from MazdaManiac and then finding this thread. So thank you to Ike and Jeff for the heads up. The error has been found by Omicron and corrected.

The irritation on my part comes from several peoples assumption that something nefarious was happening and users were being left in the dark on purpose. Then others egging them on. That's really low and and i take it as RUDE on your parts. Take one second and put yourselves in MY shoes. and im not targeting you RSD. Look at how rude the comments are to us. Everyone jumping ont he bandwagon of how much it sucks and how stupid we are and how you'll hate to have to pack up and leave.

next time something like this happens how about we all take a deep breath then contact each other (like IKE and MM did) and ask whats going on instead of hurling accusations around. The issue can be handled sooner without all this angst. No one is purposely trying to ruin anyones experience here. except for perhaps Razpewton's

well my PMs asking questions go ignored and unanswered.

And please don't take my statement on having to leave as a threat. I am fully aware that our Chicago group is a mere pittance in the scope of the forum. I was just trying to illustrate that this request was not for the sole reason of correcting spelling mistakes.

I personally have never tried to incite any type of problem or stage a coup against the mods/admin of this site. I just have not understood why when people ask a simple question (in PM or other form) why it is taken as a slight. My role as Switzerland has obviously worn thin here, and I apologize if my posts are considered rude or somehow insinuate that you are stupid. It has never been my intent. All I've asked for are some answers to questions so that I can explain to our new members before they take a hike.

Geeez...if that's the case, why don't one of you just email me and ask me to leave? I've been trying to get some sort of discussion going for the last year concerning my relationship with the upper admins. I didn't start all this crap. It's purely reactionary, I GUARANTEE it.

So if all the restrictions that have been placed on me, and the lack of responses to all of the times I've requested a discussion......if all this is simply to make my experience here so screwed up, that I'd leave, then by all means, I'll leave.

I promise you Charlie, I won't be a pain for you or any of the other MODs any longer. I have nothing against you or anyone else, sans one. Ryan Scott, you can take this forum and shove it right up your ***.

I too stated (twice) that we are looking into it. It caught many of the mods by surprise as well and a bunch of us don't like it either. Just give us a chance to work it out instead of complaining about it all day and sending out accusations. That won't speed it up. It definitely wasn't something that was done to punish anyone and no one was singled out.

FWIW: Not one person has ever sent me a heads up asking me about anything. I may only be a lowly mod and not an admin but I can still look into things if someone has an issue and can't get an answer on it.

I am sorry if i misconstrued your statement "you will only force us to use another forum to keep our meets in" your involvement in the chicago area meets is generous and appreciated by all. I dont have nearly the involvement in my local scene and i should.
