If anything, I would have to say that I get more bad gas from people who are mad when I shut down a thread that's turned into nothing more than a pissing contest, or removing an inflammatory post, etc.
In reality, a full gas tank only means you've helped some folks here and there with solutions to problems, it's not something to base your entire self-worth upon.
Mods and Admins have a PM box that holds much more due to the "fan mail" we receive at times.
I took a week off and had over 50 new PM's in my inbox in that time....would have overflowed a "mere mortals" PM box!:p
Again Chickenhauler, it was only an observation. We mere mortals would not know any better had someone not asked. I chose to be the guinea pig and ask. Thank you for the education on this.
I don't doubt that your fan mail via PM's far exceeds the "mere mortals" :thumbsup:

No worries, was merely explaining the how's and why's you asked.:thumbsup:

All you full tankers, beat it.......This thread is to call-out all the sandbaggers in the system......so, if you just raced and got lapped by a sandbagger or if your an A rider and just signed up for the C class, we'd like to hear from ya.......Otherwise, open up a "i got a bigger gas tank than you" thread !!!

Gotcha politician? ;)
I'll gladly you give you more space, provided you address even 10% of the 100s of pm's I get about someone having an issue with this person, how they don't like how we worded something, etc, etc... :thumbsup:
Or consider joining Team TT...
where do I sign up?

Nope... I wanted to be subject to the same system as the rest... I got a bitch from someone b/c they pm'd me and I took too long to respond... I guess the 949 pms I still have in my box had a lil' something to do with it.. :smirk: I also got bad gas from someone that didn't like a particular moderating call I made.
I honestly don't care. I just try to be helpful and let the chips fall where they may...
You think people go around giving the gestapo mod crew we have good gas b/c they are mods? If they have full tanks, they've earn it... ;)
There was a mass banning down here awhile back because a mod showed up here that normally doesn't troll the dregs of the midwest forum very often, started deleting threads and posts for no apparent reason and long standing members of TT took offense to that. The mods didn't understand we all hang together....just words on a screen and some jabbing.
Basically there are not many members here in the midwest forum because of our lack of areas to ride. So most of us ride to together or know one another or even live in the next town, drink, bbq or whatnot. So when a rouge mod just shows up here reads some stuff that he doesn't get, takes offense, then all hell breaks loose.
This isn't like a Cali forum where there is thousands of members posting in that forum......There is like only like 20 regular posters in here.
Let the flaming begin.
LOL!

I don't get it either, but I figure I would just chime in for the sake of chiming in.
I don't race.

im still here and that flushing of the toilet wasnt "for no reason".
looks like we are heading for a repeat.
in case you guys dont get it Bosch owns the site. are you a rogue mod if you own the site?
was i rogue mod in the previous flushing when i was asked to handle it to begin with?
you guys get a little slack,get out of hand and people complain. then the clean up crew has to come in.
20 regulars or not,the site has a rules and terms of use you all agreed to when you signed up.
follow them and the "rogue mods" wont pop up.
This is starting to sway in a way that suggests we ought to feel privelaged to post on these threads.....It is not a privelage. Most personally do not care who owns this site. This place is simply a quick stop for some entertainment, not a "paid for" subscription. I haven't seen anything outrageous in this thread, nor have I ever posted any "innappropriate" language". We are a small group of midwesterners, bored because it's too cold to ride, who find lack of throttle twisting releif in the form of Moto bantering.

It looks like you'll now have more mods and owners in this forum than regular posters. It should be entertaining for a while.
Since I live in the Midwest myself, just maybe I'll frequent this forum a bit more. I'll kind of be more like a "permanent" mod instead of a "rouge" mod. :lol:

Too cold where? If there isn't too much snow on the ground then it's not too cold to ride.
I got a nice ride in a few days ago when it was 20 out. It was great, no quads trying to run over me. :thumbsup:

Not really......I'm sure he is not into Prejudicial dismissal. If I don't care who owns McDonalds does it mean that I can't eat a Big Mac? (Ths is not suggestive that I eat Big Macs)
Ud Luz.......You make a valid point about the lack of quads !!!:thumbsup:
