Ok, I am sure there are many of you who are thinking "oh no, we don't want to hear you bitch and complain about the forum again, Ryan', but please, just read this through and it may make some sense.
Lately I have been noticing a real lot of tension throughout this forum. It used to NEVER be like this. Everyone treated everyone so nice and we all gave great advice on chops and things. I realize more and more people are wondering over here from time to time, but that should have nothing to do with it. Take the "Vantage Challenge" thread for example. What happened there guys? A fight broke out. And it was a small, unnecessary one too. What happened in the threadI made to show you guys something I created? A fight started there too. By the way, I deleted it and also, Civic, I am sorry and I realize it was really an off-topic thread. My fault.
Anyway, there are more and more fights I have been picking out too in the past. But, all of these fights started AFTER mentel left. Maybe that has something to do with it. I don't know. This forum used to be awesome, we'd never fight and we'd just come and chat. Now it is just turning into a lot of other forums on AF (flaming wise).
The point I am trying to make is that we all need to focus more on what this forum is all about. We need to stop flaming. If you think someone's chop sucks, explain why in a nice way and tell them how they could fix it. Don't be an asshole because all thats gonna do is start a liitle useless fight. Please guys, don't flame me here, I am just trying to appeal this problem to all of you. I happened to notice and now I am fed up. Please reply with your thoughts on this, kindly. Thanks for reading...my fingers hurt. ("well now your backs gonna hurt cus' you just earned yourself 4 hours of yardwork" errr...something like that ;))
Peace, word, whatever,
~Ryan

Yea man i completly agree and have been observing the same thing aswell. I think that some of us here are becoming too cocky. Some people just think that they are awesome and are soo much better than everyone else. The attitudes of some of these people just tick me off, and others aswell, starting the fights. If you look at all the recent fights, you can see that they were started for pointless reasons and just rotten attitudes. I hope that some of you people (not pointing fingers at anyone) can realize that you are being total pricks in your posts and that people are getting annoyed with it. Its supposed to be a friendly public place. No one is the big boss, so just cool off a little.

OH STOP YOUR BITCHIN!!!:thefinger j/p around man. see thats usually what it is.. just jokes.. like in the vantage challenge thread.. it was mostly just fun stuff.. but in some of the other things i see what your saying and like comon, no group is perfect. There are always going to be problems between people, like Ran knows that i used to have a HUGE problem with him. The other way around also but thats settled down because its the only thing you can do is just leave it alone. Dont try to fix problems, no forum is perfect.... and its all my fault :redface: :frown:....

Now now!
If you ignore it, it goes away. Just like when you are riding on a motorcycle and the top of your head gets itchy and you wanna dig a hole in your helmet to scratch it. But you eventually forget about it, once you ignore it. If they are harassing you by private message, or causing EXTREME trouble, report the post and send a link to a moderator (preferably igor), or me, when I get my account back. If they continue after being warned, they will be removed from the site.

I noticed some of this stuff, and its not cool, if someone is new to chopping and some prick says that is suxs and what not that will discourage the person, you all know what I mean, Good thing some one actually cares and brought it up so it can be resolved.

Reason why I am not frequently here is because my account has been temporarily suspended. Hopefully soon, it will be activated again and I can straighten things up.
We need no more moderators, we need the mod we have to get his account back so that the forum can be controlled!

Hmm I agree with De$i. I only thought we had one bacause I've never seen those two in here. So I think its a great idea to have another moderator. Suppose you have to go away foor your job again, Mental. Then we're going to need someone else who has mod powers to supervise us children (;)) here. What do you think?

i dont think you can do much about it beacuse after all some ppl are just jerk-off's and they just arent alowed to be here but i know i cant ban anyone so i really dont give a shit.

the thing is that you shouldnt have to ban anyone...and i think there is stuff you can do about it........just talk to the person.....and yes i agree some people are jerks but hey we cant ban anyone who seems like a jerk...everyone deserves a second chance.......if the problem persists then i agree something should be done about it......

Oh wtf. Come on. THis is exactly what I am talking about. This wasn't pointed directly at you. I'd NEVER do that. Please civic, I apologized okay? Why can't we just forget about it. Again, after seeing more threads with fighting (NOT just mine) I decided to make a new thread about the UNNECESSARY fighting that goes on here. So thanks for ruining the trends of positive attidudes in this thread. I guess I should delete this one too.
