They don't get it man. Welcome to the club. Pretty sure MN has more banned FF members and ex-moderators than any other state in the union.goinloco1 wrote:I banned from ff...

IIRC you where an admin, not just a lowly mod.
Can I venture a guess that it was Focusin that gave ya the boot? (he/she hate me I think)
I'm really surprised. For all the shit I've pulled and parades I've pissed on I haven't got the boot. IMO just goes to show that there is too much corporate in the forum business. None of the sites are run by enthusiasts, but by someone looking to make a buck. (It's part of my gripe with MNSCC too)
Needs to be some Focus forum that is non profit, a .org of some type.

it was actually that whiney little svtflyer. think he's a new mod, dunno.
we had a thread in general chat ragging about blackjack and his hogging the bst and why no one buys or sells there anymore. guess blackjack must be his buddy.
It's cool, I'll have a little chat with Tom tonight. the little prick of a mod started threatening me and when I bit back hard guess what happened.
Everyone there knows I don't and won't play their little games, especially when I'm not wrong.

Skimmed that thread,
Geeze what a frickin' mess.
I'd say about 90% of the people posting in that thread have no right to do so and/or don't know what the hell their talking about.
I don't like that BJ guy, but he does know what he's selling, vs the dipshit that bought parts and posted the thread. $300 for a SVT block, good deal in my book. You can't expect to buy a block swap shit over and it'll last forever. Things have to be machined and worked to last, used to be common knowledge. But with these stupid kids they think you can swap anything W/ minimal work and a few pictorials for guidance; god forbid you have even a remote understanding of what you're doing.
And the rule thing, not real clear is it? LOL
Think it was while you where away we had tried to hash out new rules to make things cleaner and easier, and I think everything just got screwed up. Doesn't help though that none of the mods know how to clean shit up, are the least bit concerned or have any organizational skills. Ken is a good guy though. It's the other wieners that shouldn't be there.
Worst part is what will happen when the people who've seen it first hand, done it already or know how to fix it are gone?
Seems not to many of the newbies are stepping up to fill in. Just more idiots. And you can't have idiots teaching idiots breeding idiots. About the only reason I stay anymore.
Screw it, I'm going on a rampage with that thread.

IMO, BJ abused the "used parts business" rule. Even if the dude isn't licensed as a business, he's running one. It certainly isn't for a loss that's for sure. Yes, members should be able to post, but not 43+ in a row in the same forum. Maybe like 5 active threads per sub forum at a time. That should be able to cover anyone's needs, easy.
I didn't see the guy posting anywhere else either. Maybe he was, I didn't search his posts, but he was just using the classifieds obviously. He's not quite as bad on FJ, not sure exactly why.
Now Jack, no going back. Kick that bucket!

only reason I'm going back is to get some email addresses that are in my pm's and see if my trade is a go or not.
