Should the Annonymous Admin be impeached? Options

[rhodyguy]

that's for the admins to decide. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) remember, the United States is not a democracy, it's a REPUBLIC, based upon democratic principles. i hate the whole "who am they anyway?" and "where are they located?" mysteries. i voted not to vote. just consider yourselves lucky. all of you would be standing in the corner if i had my way!!!

Slits does not stand in a corner...especially when A-aron Admin and MattR are in close proximity....... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

... in case ya missed it from the other thread...


i shut off my avatars because i didn't want my 4 year old daughter to see the illustrated guy smashing himself into a bloody mess on his keyboard.

but if she DID see it, i'd be able to explain it easily because i know how to be an effective parent.

kids, granny's, priests, mullahs all see the same things we see in the world. we can't stop it. ever. if you have concerns about content here or anywhere else in the world, i'd suggest it's more a reflection of your capacity to accept and understand others who have a different lifestyle than yours. to ask someone else to censor for everyone what one individual or a minority doesn't want to see (assuming an established and acceptable set of rules based on common sense) is unenlightened nonsense.

the administrators up to this have proceeded pretty well in my opinion with the rules and the addition of the sandbox. anything beyond that diminishes the viability and asset value of the group as a whole.

[rhodyguy]

due to all your help and assistance, i would'nt make you stand nose first! first we would need to elect a congress and senate. have hearings, decide that we really don't want an impeachment (behind the scenes), and settle for a censure. one of the admins should form a ballot so folks can run for office. i nomitate Rhodyguy (NITC party) for the majority whip!! vote early and often.

I voted yes because I think his or her very existance is a drakonian. It's a childish knee-jerk response to a childish incident.

I vote the admins change their "group" memembership under their avatars to "moderator". We don't need to know which one of you deleted a post or avatar, just that one of you did it.

BBAMFH is childish.

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) Now if this were the USA, this vote may even count... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif)

Now all the yes votes can start an adults only pornfest ogry in their 914 club board and do what ever you like.

This appears to be a place to act like an adult, not an adults only place.

BTW: I'm not a bible thumper. I was locked out, as in banned lastnight on the Bird Board for scolding the man you all worship. Read the posts over there. It's real enlightening. This is more about someone needing to take ownership of his actions and less about how things are done around here. Focus on something you have a better chance of changing, like world peace.

rick, my friend!
i totally respect you, your opinions (and your car!), but you don't think those who eschew censorship would then by default, condone anarchy, do you?!

your comment ignores a baseline foundation of governance; "assuming an established and acceptable set of rules based on common sense".

i also think this is a very valid debate. those who don't think so aren't obligated to post, or even read it. that's the beauty of following a "free press" model.

[IronHillRestorations]

If the rules are published, then you know what they are when you come to play. If you break the rules, you should get a PM stating so, and why. You may give up some of your free speech rights when you sign up at the door.

I personally don't mind boobies and such, but that doesn't mean I think they belong on a car club website. There's lots of places on the internet for that. I got kids, and on occasion they see this site, when I'm checking in. Do I want to go and turn off the avitars, no.

As far as the annonomous admin goes, I don't have a real problem with that. So you bust someone for breaking the rules, some anonimity might be an asset for an admin.

If you can't play by the rules then you take what you got comin. Just my .02.

Also, it would be ovaries, not labia, OK?

I voted yes.... anonymously..... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif)

maybe they can just not be 'anonymous' put their real name in their sig or something...

why does it have to be removal in order to be more acceptable?

What free press model are we following? When was it ever said this is a free-for-all! Your response is eliquent, respectful, and lucid, but pointless. read the rules, and abide, pretty simple stuff.

HMFG...

I go out for one night and all hell breaks loose.


Hey... not like we have not been through this before. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

you felt that it could become a free-for-all be if not for the secret police!

i ABSOLUTLY, POSITIVLY and COMPLETELY agree.

i just don't want the secret police. it represents too much subjective, or worse, assigned morality for me!

a 4 y.o shouldn't be sitting on daddy's lap, when he's surfing the site, under the guise of "quality time". go play chute and ladders, read her some little golden books...something. you should'nt have to explain mike's avatars to a 4 y.o. inappropriate content. this is an adult site. period.

the ignorance of that comment fits so well into the corral i just finished building, it could be considered brilliant.

cheers to you!

[tat2dphreak]

you guys do realize that even if the vote is 99% yes, remove the anonymous admin.... nothing will be happen... this isn't a democracy, remember...

let it go, it was an avater that pushed the rules that are clearly stated... we've had this arguement, the argument was lost by those in favor of nude avatars....

I voted yes. We have too many anonymous demands, decree's in our lives as it is, usually some faceless government office, enity as it is. Try to find out who said what, where this new demand came from, you just get stonewalled. That's why I started using a voice activated tape recorder everytime I talk to one of them. No one wants to take responsibility for their actions. I don't need more of that here.

I was just talking with some friends how refreshing I have found this non club with it's sense of integity and honesty amoung the members. I really don't want to lose that.

The rules are simple, follow them or leave, it's your choice.

Stand up for who you are, take responsibility for your actions, grow up, and don't hide behind anominity (sp).

The admins accepted the job, sometimes it's gonna be tough, your job is not a popularity contest. If you can't take the heat, maybe you shouldn't have the job. And yeah, I do know about taking heat to do the job, read my career history sometime. A rule I always used, if I'm not willing to put it in writing and sign my "name" to it, maybe I shouldn't be saying it.
