It's amazing. I was thinking about moving my base of operations myself. i have been notified that someone complained and they are taking my mod status again, and they already got my personal web site banned. same people doing it (not staff or admin). Things are changing for the worse it seems. i mean, I work my freaking azz off for this site and put mucho time into it, and then no one stands up for me when it's needed, I guess what i do really means not much. maybe i only think I help the site out, lol. Anyway, let me know if we find another site to go to, if that's what you guys decide. I am almost at my limit with the politics of the site that's for sure, and wonder if I have any fight left or if it's worth the effort. It's a shame, i have never ever fealt this way before and have always cultivated new members from other sites.

Things that have never changed even under new ownership:
Non-racing or joke threads move to racers lounge. Copied posts have expiration dates built into the database so you know where they went.
Posting names or links to sites with the same sponsors here are deleted or moved to the trash. Personal sites with no sponsors are left alone.
Other moderators can and will delete or move threads that are not listed as moderators in this forum. They are senior moderators who come across a topic they do not feel is deemed appropriate for the site overall.
Inappropriate images, avatars or signatures are deleted.
Members attacking other members were banned.
Since the change in ownership:
Inappropriate images, avatars or signatures are deleted. Infractions are used with the new feature instead of banning.
Members are warned/infraction with posts removed for attacking other members instead of being banned.
As for threads being moved out of this forum, it happens about once every 3 months compared to 3 moves out of one forum per day. Look at the last three pages - what would qualify as "racer lounge" material stayed for local input.

That is the funniest thing I've read all day! 
So under the new ownership you just let all those banned members come back? Are your eyes brown?

It is...everybody has to get their .02 in tho. And just the simple threads too...don't even care about the bashing threads, they can do with them what they see fit, but the ones that get moved to the lounge from here, the regional section, is all this post was talking about...nice and simple. That's it.

I haven't once seen anything out of line here. Never noticed posts get moved, but I can say I do enjoy the jokes and non-car related stuff. Thought the combo of it all was what this section was for.
It's not like we have 20 people a day asking if 315s fit on 9.5inch wheels.
Shrug!

Someone reported your sig, no idea who since it just shows up in pm. Could be text limit or links that came up recently and instead of the usual kill I politely asked if you could change it. There are a few in here that are over limit so someone else picked on you
