This site has become more and more moderated for a while now, and locking a tread because a mod thinks it is going to need locking soon anyway is just too much.

Good Grief you idiots!!!
Will you PLEASE do me a favor? and GET THE HELL OVER IT?!?! I don't know what happened and I really don't care, but some of you act as though your mother was just shot by Sarah Brady herself! I mean for crying out loud, SteyrAUG could just be another random post generating program like Imbroglio, but some of you act like he was your personal Jesus. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate Steyr's input (and Imbro's too!) but crimeny! the guy DID try to , shall we say "push the limits" by inviting the rest of you to participate in the BOTD threads. I'm not saying he did anything wrong 'technically' except for he did probably incite the riot. But does that alone equal a banning? I don't know, and don't really care. I'm not a moderator, yet I know what the rules are and expect a thorough bashing/banning when I break them. And so should the rest of you. Just My .02 |

"The topics SteyrAUGs PERFECT 10s was completely compliant you fucking shitbag asshole."
SteyrAUG, you really need to get a life! This stuff you post is not even pornography. Its pictures that little boys look at. You act like you have never seen a woman in your life! Why do you keep sharing your pictures of the half-naked girls that you have, when you have been told a number of times to chill out. If you have an uncontrollable obsession with girlie pictures why don't you hang out on a pornography site, or go to a strip bar, or better yet why don't you take all the time that you waste here and spend it with your wife. If I remember correctly you just recently got married didn't you? Are you lacking something in your marriage that obsesses you to look at and share your girlie pictures with the people here on this gunsite? If anything, why don't you show a little more respect for your wife! |

Striker -
You are wasting your keyboard. They don't want a reasonable explanation, and the one you gave is more than resonable. They want their own way. And they won't be satisfied until they get it. NOTE TO THE CHILDREN THAT POPULATE THIS SITE: Life is FULL of rules. The fact that you CANNOT and WILL NOT follow the simple (and VERy lenient) rules here (one of them being to NOT stir up shit unnecessarily) is indication that you MAY never learn to follow rules, and that you will quite possibly, in time, make poor citizens. Life is full of rules. DEAL WITH IT. In fact, better yet, use AR15.com as an opportunity to practice your OBVIOUSLY deficient rule-following skillz. |

I have been "holding out" for a large 10 pointer I saw on the last few days of archery season.I passed on literally dozens of deer during "shotgun" (regular) season.
On Thanksgiving morning I saw a small 8 pointer that I was going to let go.I changed my mind and shot it (under 30 yds) when I saw he had a neck wound on the side exposed to me (L). I later found out it was a recent arrow wound (little foreign body reaction to it and no sign of infection).There was a broadhead and the forward 5" of an arrow in the neck. I could not let the deer go like that. It made up for the 2 small bucks I arrowed and could not find during archery season. Yes,dragging the 8 pointer was a good aerobic workout,but if I get one of the heavy deer we have seen recently (over 200 pounds easily)I am going to need help! [:)] |

I must say thank you to the owners/moderators/babysitters of this site. You have provided a nice place for people to come and share ideas, thoughts and experiences about the AR15 rifle. You have also provided a general discussion forum that has rules and limitations. People that overstep those limitations or break the rules are warned. If they do not heed the warnings they are banned. You guys do a lot of work to keep the BS down to a bare minimum. Thanks again.

Well good morning all, hound is back from mexico and willing to share a few words of wisdom with all of you peeps....first on the subject of SA,
If it was premature moderation, we have a problem....but it looks like to me that SA shot himself in the foot in the second round of the gun-fight. For the arguments about content, all of your arguments about BOTD can be turned against any of you and used to run you off. Example...Garand and his constant christianity---aren't there milllions of sites to discuss this non-gun related topic on. Isn't it offensive to a few of our members? (I know G-man---you're on a mission from God and I am writing examples) Some of the people on here obviously hate libertarians,muslims,democrats,women,cats,squirrels,rugers, and imbroglio....aren't there other sites where they can do this? THIS IS MY HOME!!! I spend eight hours a day on this place, five days a week and I am really fed up with other people not treating it like the wonderful place it is. Don't come to my house and put your feet on the coffee table. Please? I get more from this site than any other site ever in the history of the WWW and I see you guys doing your best to drive goatboy and his ass off the bridge. He let's most of us come to this fine country club for free and instead of acting like we would at a real country club, we act like 4-years olds at Toys-R-Us. Just think about it and try to make this place a place other people want to visit. And stop slamming the content.....if we have pretty pictures on the walls, it is ok! If we have bible verses, it is ok! If we have Imbroglio nailed to the wall it is ok! Come in have a beer and relax. |
|
I don't know much but I do know this -"ATTACKING" GoatBoy or the mods will not solve anything. We simply put them in a position where they have to "DEFEND."
"GoatBoy" is there any way you can see to bring back the "AUG ?" I think a fitting punishment would be to have him agree to read all posts above his before posting for a period of 30-days !! For such a prolific poster that's a large whack on the knuckles. [soapbox] |
|
In my opinion there is a difference between a personal attack and using cuss words to describe someone. A personal attack is an attack against something particular to that individual. What SteyrAUG said was not particular to that person. It was directed AT that person and contained language some might find offensive, but it wasn't any more personal than responses made every day on this board.

EdSr was banned for his misappropriation of sector resources...
]=) Ok let me try to explain this one last time: - BigPig locked the Babe Thread understanding that only one babe thread was going to be allowed from this point on to keep things simple for everyone. (He jumped the gun if you will.) - Steyr over reacted and posted a HORRIBLE response to that without knowing or caring for the facts. He was then banned. - Shooter65 complained and created 3 or four threads to antagonize and challenge my actions. I requested he calm down and let this go, he refused. (The limit on BOTD threads, Steyr was not yet banned and was not part of the equation.) Obviously, he was banned as well. I try to be patient, honest, and open minded as much as possible. I usually warn people and not lock accounts. Even in my shitty mood last night, which you all wish to use as the "excuse" as to why things happened as they did, I warned Shooter several times, in several threads. The Steyr banning was 100% because of his response. I even edited the topic itself because of the harshness of the post. All this over the BOTD thread which was NEVER LOCKED. I don't think threads such as those will be tolerated anymore, since the childish nature it brings out of people. To overreact so badly over a stupid post which has absolutely ZERO value to the site is a bit much. For the record, there was no fallout, no other actions taken, I talked to Steyr in chat shortly afterwards and I have been talking with Shooter65 via email. As for cc48510's wonderful comments in this thread, you can see another example of how childish people can get when they don't get their way. |

It wouldn't be so bad if Steyer could just stopy crying like a damned little girl when he gets his feelings hurt (no offense ladies) and behaving like an adult. The crap he pulled after his perceived slighting from AntiUSSA made it loud and clear how childish and silly he could be. Some of his posts were very informative and helpful, but most of them were utter crap. I'll miss him, but only so much because he's proven he's not capable of acting like an adult all the time or playing by the rules. I liked his religous posts, but the BOTD threads did nothing for me.
I think everyone who hasn't become a paying member, including myself, has very little right to bitch about anything around here. That's why I keep my mouth shut about the way Goatboy runs the site, though I really have no problems with the current rules. If I did, I wouldn't spend so much time hanging out here.

Niether side was right. BigPig should have stated all the "Babe" threads were going to be consolidated to save bandwith and Moderators time if that was the case. However he acted in a very insulting and pompous manner. That being said, Steyr Aug`s response was totally unwarranted in it`s use of profanity.
As for constructive criticism, I think some quality control is in order for the moderators. I`ve read some topics that were locked for obvious reasons (i.e. race or ethnic slurs), and some where I was left scratching my head as to why. To the mods credit, I`ve seen a couple of instances where they reversed themselves where they made an error. Perhaps a review of all threads locked should be done by the moderators in their forum to see if certain mods have trouble with certain subjects or members. I don`t think Goatboy should have to be the preschool teacher for everyone and solve all the problems that crop up. It might also calm down some of the more excitable people here to know the mods were trying to police themselves in a responsible manner. Just my 0.02 $. |

The fact remains that this site is private property, and the owners have appointed Goatboy to run it (a job I would NEVER accept!). He makes the rules, and the mods jobs are to enforce them.
Some of you folks remind me of a brat that insists on messing with the dog, no matter how many times he is told to leave it alone. When the dog has finally had his fill and bites the little rascal, he cries and says it's the dog's fault. There are literally hundreds or thousands of outright porn sites on the net. This is a gun site. Why is it absolutely necessary to have naked women pics here??? I like smut as much as the next guy, but I don't come HERE to see it! I understand the "but it's the GD forum" arguement, but I don't think it flies when the pics are in violation of board policy. Some of us obviously need to do some growing up. That being said, I don't want Steyr to be banned either, but he has to take responsibility for his actions (or in this case statements). I'm sure he'll be back. Sheeesh! |
