Hell, some of the stuff posted today was just as objectionable as what he posts. Apparently, our standards have changed.

I started to read some of the funny stuff but I couldn't get past a funny comment from Sir Andy. I'm bored with it all now. I'm looking for car stuff to tweek my interest. BTW: Hard to believe a regular 914club guy or gal could be as bad as Alfred.

See.. I dont even read any of the threads that could be remotely political. I just STAY the FUCK OUT of the thread and keep my mouth shut. Much easier to deal with me in public when you have NO F-ing clue on where I stand politically. There is NO room for it here. It divides people that otherwise have gotten along just fine until the "political" issue is raised and sides are taken. I have had the *pleasure* (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) of listening to political rants/raves for the last several weeks in the shop. I dont care to "hear" more about it in the one place I use to "get away" (the club site)

Anyone should be invited to participate here.

Having said that, all content should focus on 914s. There are way too many OT diversions, and the site is becoming diluted.

It's not always true..

Even though it's obvious that Bleyseng and I are near 180 degrees about what we want out of politics, we agree 100% on wanting to be patriots, and make it work for us. (US)

I had to leave this place for what.... nearly 2 months... because I was told no politics, and then everyone's avatars, signatures, and member titles were turned into indoctrination messages.

See, that was wrong.

Admins:

First sign of political "anything" delete the thread. If the person starts another thread... ban them.

Let Jeroen decide the fate of his own thread.

I wont have it. I would be big time enemies with several people on this BBS (good friends currently) if I went round and round with them in political stupid debates that end with NO winners.

Dont like my decision... go back to Rennlist and see if JD likes it.

I've changed my position on this. I think we should ban politics from the board. The constant bashing of anything government related, or California for that matter pisses me off. There isn't a reasoned debate - it's just a constant flame war.

We should also implement a feature that allows people to delete their own user accounts.

I am closer to wanting it today than I have been for a while.

Any objections ?? I'll be face to face with Andy in an hour. I'm betting he doesnt have ANY issue with "our" new policy.

Having browsed some of the posts from today, I'm wondering if some have forgotten that although this is a 'faceless' forum - there is still a basic issue of respect that should not be forgotten in any messages that are posted.

I admire everyone who posted with passion about their particular point of view - to the extent that those posts were presented with respect for your fellow forum members. It is inevitable that in a forum with such a variety of members, the collective will not be of the same mind - whether that be about a V8 conversion, the value of cats or politics. This forum has, with few exceptions, encouraged open communication and todays posts are an example of best of that openness and the worst....the worst is, in my opinion, an unfortunate side effect of communication within a medium that doesn't require you to look someone in the eye as you express your thoughts.

I'd like to suggest that before any of us hit the 'add reply' button that we evaluate whether or not both the opinion and the delivery of the message are representations of how you'd like to be known on this forum.

Be respectful of your fellow forum members - enjoy and embrace the differences that make both this forum and this country great. We have all shown that we have a tremendous capability of pulling together in times of crisis or when a forum member needs support - that spirit shouldn't be lost during our daily time in the 'garage'.

If people cannot control their emotions prior to typing... we will help "moderate" them quickly.

Pam nailed it.. I'm just not quite as smooth as she is...LOL

Bottom line:

Dont show up to the 914club "garage" and start slinging shit. You will be escorted out.
