I tell ya what ... I am tired of it and for today I am gone I don't want to have to play the "most hated mod" role anymore and the constantly shifting rules that are never announced to us as moderators has gotten to me as well. randomly enforced rules written within the TOS that we were told to uphold are causing a whole mes of bullshit and it seems I am catching the bullet for it.

So heres the deal for today, not that I really have any say or power but for today you and everyone on here can post what they want as they like regardless of content etc. Have at it and go apeshit please.

If you get called on it simply reply to it with the fact that "Nightshade said it was ok to post as we like" and I will take the heat for any content posted.

Seriously I am asking you to do it and I will also bring back your thread (v2) and let you have at it.

me I am out...gonna go get some coffee and do some reading.

Not trying to be a prick... but enjoy your day off. You can use it.

I can't speak for the rest of the community here... but I won't be going apeshit. I'll continue to post the exact same things that I have been which are according to ToS perfectly fine. I know some people will act differently, and maybe THEY are the people you should be all over instead of me.

Looks it's time for me to step into the breech. :a:

Erik... think for a minute about the pattern of how we moderate down here.

We remove swearing from the thread titles...and we do not allow hardcore porn images.

So what made you think that directly linking to a hardcore porn site would be acceptable?

To make things worse, you put the damn website in the title of the thread.

This whole issue could have been prevented with the use of some common sense.

i have a question...a while back i put in an old thread that was from the UK and was a from a real news channel. in the video it showed a girl in a bikini bottom and topless holding up a speed limit sign... in this thread i read boobs are ok but penis, vag, and clit is a nono. it got locked no big deal i didnt really care but i still got "yelled at"

about 2 days after that someone posted a quick link to a picture of three old men sucking each other off but that never got deleted??

honestly i dont care its a friggen web site...but some MODS play favorites...

that is all

being this is the basement and the content in here is different than the rest of the side is there a section where we can see what is/isn't allowed here? I've been a member for a descent bit and I never thought any nudity was acceptable, ever.

But you didnt see the threads man. I did not directly link BECAUSE i figured it'd be trouble. So I named the site, not linked, IN a SPOILER and it has NWS wrapped as well. I told people the name of the main page, which ALSO has a "Only click if you can follow our rules and are above the age" disclaimer.

Then I told people which girl it was and where to find her.


I did EVERYTHING by the rules... that was my argument.

If I had posted the video or a direct link to her getting it from behind that would be different. I understand that!




If the fact that there was a www and a .com in the thread title along side the words Bang and Boat was the problem... then that could have been edited out. Like you guys normally do. Not locked and erased without any explanation. It seems thats what happens to most of my threads that someone might disprove of in the slightest.

And my other point is one that had been disputed for quite some time. I KNOW this is the basement so it is supposed to be off topic, and I understand that it isn't a wild west lawless area either. There ARE rules and certain threads that can be there.

We ALSO have an ON-TOPIC area, where threads that cant be destroyed and are forced to stay on a serious topic are made. That is an excellent idea. I believe in the last couple of day two or three threads got moved from the Basement to either the On Topic or a Technical area because they weren't created following the more-nonsense-then-not trend of this forum.

But then why is it John makes a serious U.N. thread in here... and keeps it here. When I post in there saying "Why doesn't this get moved to the On-Topic area, like all the others are?"... he replies saying "No one goes to On Topic" and goes ahead and erases my post for no reason! How can these double standards be applied? It boggles the mind that someone who is so adamant on the rules and preserving the wholesome family values of Honda-Acura.net won't even follow his own rules. The biased behavior shouldn't be tolerated and in my opinion is wholly unacceptable.


If you want to keep it strict... do it across the board. Don't pick and choose cases and people to enforce and then let the others slide. I know I am here by my own free will and I am able to leave whenever I want... but dammit I've been here for 7 years as well and this isn't just a current trend. 98% of the time I don't have a problem here... but as soon as anything controversial happens it's automatically assumed mods are right and everyone else isn't. The biased God complex has to go. :dunno:




Thats just my two cents. I love this place and wouldn't have been here for so long if I didn't. The people here are what have kept me here, and I enjoy coming here with the sense of community that it has. I just don't want to see this place go to hell because some people decided that rules only apply to some and not to others.
