I've been here since '05. I've met some fantastic people here...made some friends I'll have for the rest of my life. Seen drama, seen lots of threads I didn't care to click on. Watched... heck, been involved in verbal sparing. Seen a lot of good members fade away.
Honestly, I've not spent nearly as much time here over the last few years as I did in the first few.. I spend most of my time on a regional forum. I do, however, continue to pay attention to what goes on here. I've always respected the way this forum has been run, but I can't help but wonder.. is this become too close to Mr Rogers neighborhood? Actually...Mr Rogers is not correct..maybe Mr Rogers with an anger management problem would be closer..
Just a few words to the admin on this site;
Looks like there has been some bannin' going on around here. It seems to me the reins have tightened more and more in this house. I've also seen some real hypocrisy, and instances where favoritism has been obvious.
People come to a forum for fun. To talk to like minded individuals, typically about a particular subject (ie; motorcycles), but also to banter about other pieces of life... but again.. mostly for fun.
When a place is no longer fun.... people will stop coming.
Just food for thought from one dumb redneck.
