Go away. If you don't like OT threads, don't go to OT. If you see OT posts in a non-OT thread...that thread's been around for too long. You already got some of the best OT threads in the OT section closed. Are you the internet police?

I'm not talking about the nudity threads in OT. I'm talking about OT threads in the other sections of the forum.

Example: threads about what car you were considering before buying the FRS/BRZ, in the FRS or BRZ general section.

As for your comment, I'll take it under consideration. And no, I'm not the internet police, the moderators are the ones who choose to enforce the rules as they see fit.

If it was not an issue, the threads would've been kept open.

Okay, those I can agree with; the bold portion I can't. They would have been kept open if no one had complained.

So what you're saying is: if something is wrong and it doesn't apply to me, just ignore it and move on?

Hear no evil see no evil. Ignorance is bliss. Brush aside these things because they're someone else's problem.

Got it, will make mental note for the future.

Exactly. It applies to real life and the internet. Even if you're being sarcastic, it rings true.

It's people like mav who ruin the internet for the rest of us...

Tell me, what did I do wrong? Please be as clear as you can so I can correct my mistake.

What's done is done; quit fishing mav.

I'm done with the replies and personal insults in this thread (see the thread tags as proof). I only replied because I agree with the moderator's comment:

the responsibility falls under our members also to help the forum environment be clean and friendly regardless of the posters emotional state.

That is all.

Again, my stance from day 1 is unchanged: rules are set by site admin, and mods are enforcing the rules as they see fit. If me speaking up "ruins" your internet fun, perhaps you should 1) go to a place that has no rules and you can have all the fun you want, or 2) you can ask the site admin to remove all site rules.

If it was me and my car on fire, I'd make my post/thread after the issue is resolved, for better or worse.

First if the part of John was told to keep quiet, he blew that when he opened his mouth on the subject in the GTR forums.. Second, I'd really like to meet the guy who got his car burned down to the ground through no fault of his own.. Walk up shake the guys hand and say hey we will figure it out and I'll post about it later.. Especially when other people are using the product that most likely started the fire.. I personally would want as many people that had the same part in question to know before there is an accident that ends way worse then the loss of a car

Do thread tags in the form of insults include your moderation?

im ok with it as long as nobody gets butt hurt about it and reports it. Sometimes a joke is a joke and people need to take it with a grain of salt.

tagged insults are LULZ
