[89IROC&RS]

Ok first things first, i apologize to all the mods on the forum who will undboutably be flocking to this with blood on their lips, but before i get kicked, realize this is not my normal posting, i am doing this out of frustration.

thus far, on our forum we have been well behaved, reporting trouble posters, trolls, and the like, keeping things here respectable, and helpfull, i myself take great satisfaction in beign able to help others having trouble with their cars. but we also like to have a good time. and in recent past, have put up a few harmless posts with girls in bikinis around cars. something we all enjoy, and have heard no negative feedback on. this is not effecting the forum, we still help people with questions, talk about beer, sports, politics, and the like, but have a thread or two on what many of us concider the two greatest things in life, beautiful cars, and beautiful women.

there is nothing wrong with this

there is no pornography being posted

there is no change in our forum as a whole

on top of this, there has been no explination for the termination, locking, or disappearance of such threads. they just go away. no one is told why, no one is told that its against forum policy, or some other rules we are unaware of. so in my eyes it is the work of a mod who does not like the threads, and of their own opinion choose to get rid of them. without telling anyone why. to me this is a power trip, and that person should not be a mod.

If i am incorrect in any of this, if i have overstepped some bounds, or stepped on anyones toes, i do appologize, but also DEMAND that i have a REASON given to me. explain to me why this is wrong, and why the threads are removed, so that i can understand. and no feel pushed around and angry at the mods of AF. if it were clear to me that these threads broke some rule i would be ok about it, apologize and not post them anymore, but as far as i can tell, i have done nothing wrong, and therefore the posts should stand.

as i have requested before, you do not have to expose yourself on the forum on this subject, simply PM me and i will explain the reasons behind it, not rat out the person behind it, and we can all move on. but this is getting very old. i have not been a minor for a very long time, and being chastized and scolded like a little boy with a playboy, for posting pics of something you can see at the pool, is not acceptable to me.

COMMUNITY GUIDELINES
This is a community of automotive enthusiasts. Watch your P's and Q's when you write and use emotion icons if you think someone might take something you say offensively.

RESPECT IS THE KEY
The Automotive Forums .com (AF) is a place where it's okay to be yourself -- be that harried, jovial, silly or sad -- as long as you always act with respect towards your fellow AFers. We promise that you won't have to leave your personality at the door. We promise to bring passion to our work and to our community and to act with appreciation for our members. We will listen willingly to your suggestions and complaints, and try to incorporate your ideas in everything we do.

AF Staff are here to help you so if you have a problem e-mail it or post your request in the forums. We have many members that have knowledge in various areas. They are all willing to help you at the drop of a hat.

If you've been caught or accused of a wrongdoing don't get irrational. Most of the time we revoke privileges as a safety measure not as a personal vendetta and we are usually just as quick to reinstate them, as we were to revoke them.

I would have thought someone capable of owning a Comaro would have a more mature attitude.

I removed your thread as it quite clearly goes against AF's guidelines.

Theres no need to get upset about it, and its certianly not ban worthy, its not even close.



And while we're on the topic of AF guidelines tacoma man you might want to edit your sig.



And just so you guys don't think your being picked on or anything Ill say something nice:

This is one of the best sub-forums on AF, and a bloody good reason to buy a Camaro regardless of what the cars like. Theres an abundance of technical knowledge, and willingness to spread it around.
But lets keep it about Camaros, there are far far better places on the net to find pics of hot chics, and if you venture outside this subforum you'll find over a thousand others all filled with useful and useless bits of information, as well as an Off Topic forum in need of some new faces.
