Axe the Unsavory Posting and the Guilty Parties!

[Tug-n-pull]

Dear Moderators, I am just a small part of the process here and thank you for all the hard work that is involved in keeping the site up and running. You do a great Job.

Not so long ago I was ready to give up the Jeepz.com board for a total loss. Then I thought NOT! this is as much my home on the webb as anyones. I have a bunch of time invested and have made great online friends here. I will stay and I will fight for this site.

More and more we are seeing newbies that come on show their butts on a regular basis. Nothing but sriff, and harsh remarks and even foul language and Porn. These members are not here for the exchange of jeep knowledge rather to cause soap opera type nonsence.

It is ez to see the posters that are here to be a part of the group, as it is ez to see the ones that are here to cause grief. There is no excuess for this. I did get all wrapped up and fall to their level and post off color statements as well. For that I have said sorry and now again I am Sorry.

I was able to go back and police my own harsh words by the delet and edit of post made in anger, and now I work very hard to edit what I feel to make it pointed when I am so angry over the BS. But it is hard to do so. Sometimes I still want to jump on parties here with foul language and bad out looks with both feet.

I do so humbly ask for you to see fit to either reprimend or remove some of these parties for the good of serious members here. I understand that I to should be ask about my actions from time to time and feel this is only right! but lets face it there are some real winners posting here these days and getting by with alot of stupidity.

Again thanks for all you do, and I am not one to say that anything is wrong but please understand that the bad apple can spoil the whole crop! If I have over steped my boundry here please let me know. Tug

I agree with that very much tug. Individuals like the one who is posted right above me give us a bad rap with some of the nubies who first join and all they see is this trash. Not to mention it is a waste of time & space. I don't see where you overstepped your boundries tug, we as members want to see this place stay a family place where we can all come, hang out and talk Jeep[addsig]

i can only police the cherokee forum... i've petitioned terry to have me as a moderator for the general forum too but he didn't... i think we should have tug be a moderator too!

I think we should have Tug as a moderator as well. He has proven himself to be knowledgable and honest in his writing, like some of us, he is on here enough. He is definatly the old wise sage! Not saying you are old Tug, I mean, umm, being wise, umm, well, it is a complement!

I would be honored to be a moderator! The need to stop folks like the poster above J10@mteadenky really needs to be removed from the members list and bared from the site. Tug[addsig]

Ya I'm getting sick of this guy and guys like him and something needs to be done.[addsig]

Well put Tug! I have also been keeping my distance from the board....but too bad, "I'm baaacck"!

I miss the comraderie that used to be present....hopefully some people can rein in their posts and get this place back to where it used to be....easy going, informative forum for people to discuss their mutual obsession!! :-D

Quinners, glad you're back. Please people, don't leave because of a couple dum@$$es. If you leave and quit hanging around, then they win! It's like when a bad person moves into your neighborhood. Don't move, make them move. The commraderie is still here, even with jerks like J10. And almost more so, because of people like him. Look, we all stand up and protect our turf. This is OUR board and WE run it. It's like my Jeep has already marked it's spot on this board like a dog, or cat (hee heee) and it will defend it. Please, the more of us that keep posting, the better the board becomes. I've learned too much, from all of you, to see you all quit coming here because of some kid. I would be sad if Quinners, USMPK9, Joopin, Tug, Dingus, Snitty, Right and all the rest quit coming because of a twerp.

i'm all fer tug. this is a good site that i'm glad to be part of. there are idiots everywhere in life and they will get tired of trying to pull our chains after awhile and then they will leave our site to try to get a rise outta someone else. i check this site first thing in the morn. before work {about 5:00 am} and at the end of the day i enjoy going back over it , reading at leisure, and some inmature morons rambling won't take that away from me. the ones that come on here just to swear or talk trash are just wasting their time.[addsig]

Well this is one of the best responses, and open post I have read. I think you would make a great moderator. thanks for taking the time to let us hear your side. And don't worry even some of us newbies, can see the good thru the bull$hit...Happy trails. [addsig]

Quinner, it's wonderful to read your script again.
hang tight, we are glad you are back.

We'll take out the trash and it won't stink here
anymore. PROMISE!

I agree with all my "Master Jeepster"
buddies, who have voiced their anger in
MANY post over our "somewhat" recent
turd and some others who keep
popping in to entertain themselves and
distract us from our sharing of knowledge.

--------------------------------------------

We share a bond, a duty, and a commitment..

A Salute to Ruggedness, individualism, and freedom...
And most of all,, sharing, helping, and caring....

you know my post # doesn't
describe the amount of time you and
I have been friends.

As your friend, I would hope
that on this site,
this will be welcome......
================
Read very, very carefully. please dear friends.

I believe in Democracy, and Checks and Balances.
================
No one person should be able to decide, a terminal
solution, but a group of 2-3? ACTIVE posting moderators,
should be able to privately decide: is a poster is a positive
aspect or a problem. and Act accordingly.

=====================

New Business:

A. I (USMPK9) hereby nominate
the Good Sir Tug-n-Pull, AND the
Good Sir Dingus to Moderate in
the General & Tech
portions of JEEPZ.COM...

B. I (USMPK9) move that the
current Moderators: devise a
plan and act on terrorist attacts
on our board. (Threating to kill
some one, or call someone a
Dum???.. for posing a query, Porn,
is not why we are here.

C. I (USMPK9) move that the:
current Moderators, select a group of
Active posters, who will be involved
in the evolution of this forum.
Pick 3-5? and you will have
an excellent basis for
your confidential decisions.

D. I (USMPK9) move that:
ANY MODERATOR FROM
ANY FORUM: Should have
the ability to take under
advisement any post, that
they may find not to be
within the spirt of JEEPZ.COM.

The Moderator should be able
to hold from public view, any
questionable post, TRACK, and
advise the prescribed council
of Moderators of concerns,
before we run off our newest
friends and fountains of intel.

IS THERE A SECOND,,????

A VOTE!!!!!!!!!!

Will the motion Carry?

We have come to a fork in the road,
Me and mine, are not afraid to STAND UP!
Sound OFF!!! and humbly offer options for
discussion.

with me being new to the site, but a long time jeep nut. i appreciate the honest opinions i get from fellow jeepers, whether the are TJers, XJers, CJers, or my fellow YJers. this place has a great feel to it and would hate to see a few newbies ruin it for the rest of us who have only recently been introduced to this site[addsig]

 

[USMPK9]

1063139

Jeepsters,
I know the double post is faux pas,
but the thoughts, suggestions, and
vote should be the new post....

We share a bond, a duty, and a commitment..

Please forgive, and let us make our voice
known..[addsig]
