Why Has Your Warn Rate Gone Up For No Reason?

[Swiper the Fox]

We cannot play favourites over anyone. Everyone gets the hefty warn level increase.

May I ask if you used the report post button for the offending posters comments?

Didn't think i need to as three of the moderators...two of them are reading this now have read what im talking about.

If you use the button then it keeps it on record for the rest of us to see the complaint.

I know it is a pain but it does help with the up keep of the forums

I'm sorry you feel hard done by. As with all authority positions... you cant please everyone all the time. There is always going to be people who get upset

I was actually enjoying somebody getting worked up about something on here, like giving a shit about the way things are done, but this last line of yours just makes me shake my head... If there is an account of a serious post that has been edited (besides rule breaking posts like chatting in fs, posting porn, etc) let me know because that goes against everything we want in these forums.

Freedom of speech is my number 1 priority in almost everything I do. I, believe it or not, am a hippy at heart, member of Greenpeace, Sea Shepherd, Free Tibet, Amnesty and a lot of others. I am all for freedom of speech, dont for one second misinterperet that by having rules that protect me and my family from legal action are there for any other reason.

I am fairly sure that I am safe from legal action from businesses (step mother is a solicitor, dad is a barister, uncle is a solicitor, sister is a barister + shit loads of legal-minded family friends) but when it comes down to it, the internet and its legal grounds are still new and there are laws being changed every day to deal with them. Until I am absolutely positive about where I stand, the rules stay in place, because as much as I love you guys, I wont pick you when it comes to the crunch.

Its crazy to think that we (I say we because although I am ultimately responsible, this forum belongs to everbody) cant say whats on our minds, but unfortunately (and at least for now), thats the way it has to be.

Cool, then we need those mods to be reported so they can be pulled aside. I dont want anybody thinking that because they're a mod they'll be treated differently.

hmmm col?

Paul, we know you enjoy baiting people and then complaining when you are "singled out".

But, I apologise for not warning the person who posted about your business last night, I had a night away from the computer. Not sure why no-one else warned them when the post clearly breaks the rules. Anyway, done now, and in future if you have an issue use the report button as Dan said.

And, you have been warned for your trolling and personal attacks in that thread. As always details will be attached to your warning log. I've only included your attacks against one person in the warning and skipped gems like "are you stupid or illiterate?" in your attacks on about 4 other people including me.

Amazing how the shit talk followed you from the drag threads to the circuit threads. Must just be a co-incidence.

BTW in post 1125 of that thread you bet a case of v/bottle of jack that you would go quicker. Did you pay up?

[Duncan]

on the bright side school holidays finish this weekend.

You could only be sued for deformation..... if the person who denies the accusations can prove its untrue which the onus is on them to do so....."

The truth is not an ultimate defence. Just because so something is true doesn't mean it's not actionable. Slander and liable laws are not uniform in our great country.

[Redback]

found it... no warnings for me...... but im sure that can easily change.......

i like the people that call others stupid and illeterate... and many other things.... makes me wonder if there that rude and plain worthy of a public beating when you meet them face to face... i write exactly what i would say to someone face to face be it good or bad and not be a fake firewall personality protected ass. .i can come across as a bastard at times.... i prefer to know people as just 1 person... not split personality types.... i think thats some type of medical condition that lands you in a nut house.

[Nismo_Boy]

Why did Ash remove my concern? I couldn’t voice my worry via the report to moderator link as his comment was removed from the original thread.

[R31Nismoid]

Read your PM's.

[shanef]

double standards much?

[rb26s13]

Well, when you sport a sig like yours, 80% seems a little low....

Hey Christian, can you please investigate whats going on with Duncan and his attitude towards me. He has for years always felt it necessary to badger and taunt me. Im no angel either but come on...how many warnings has he copped from his attacks towards me? none id say. None of the posts he refers to break the rules as such and because i came in here and felt it necessary to voice my opinion on the clear double standard that he gives me compared to his mates, he slaps another warning on. He had been in the thread and felt it unnessary to dish out warnings, and even thought it necessary to get involved. But only after i come in here...another warning. Bloody hell...this isn't China!. His lack of respect for me his something ive learned to live with and ive made some attempts to smooth the relationship with him by helping him with advice from time to time. Duncan, next event why don't you actually come and have a chat next time you see me at an event instead of looking the other way anytime you come near me. I even parked our car next to yours at the show and shine to try and get to know you, but when i returned to our car you moved yours elsewhere.

Christian ive PM'd you in the past about this same issue, but had no reply or feedback...so ive posted it here.

Hey Paul, I can help. I only have 2 problems with you

1. You break forum rules

2. You repeat 1.

Time and time again over years. And you've been warned numerous times and banned as well.

Howdy,

Sorry for the lack of PM response, I hardly ever check them because I get so many, its so time consuming going through them all (unlike emails) so I am best caught like this or shoot me an email.

I'll have a chat to Duncan, I have known Duncan for a while now and haven't ever seen him being one-sided in any decisions. That being said, I am not immediately taking his side, I am just giving you a bit of a character reference. As for his warnings, the moderators and admin's dont have warning's on their accounts. This is because if a mod stuffs up badly enough to warrant a warning, odds are they are moving towards losing their moderation status anyway.

Christian

[Nismo_Boy]

Far out, sounds like it’s time for a serious consideration on Christian’s behalf to look into doing a complete moderation team rotation.

New team, no bias, no grudges, no beef.

It honestly sounds like these issues will not get any better and even perhaps worsen, with the attitudes and views the current moderating members have towards the non moderating members.

I have no bad blood with Duncan and a lot of his posts have been helpful, but if what Paul is saying has and still is happening, Duncan is clearly not acting in accordance with the SAU guidelines point number one (1)

Treat all members with respect and courtesy

So, you act like a girl who’s in high school and completely ignore someone trying to smooth things over in the real world, for something that’s happened on the internet and move your car because you don’t want it parked next to his..

*Edit, better use of words.*
