that the world would get louder? :thinking: idk, my ban powers were used for business and sammich. :lmfao: but yeah certain SM most likely ban people just cause they can. :lmfao:


idk how i feel about it honestly. that just means the admins need to keep on their toes about people who need a vacation.

On a few forums I'm on, the SMs aren't allowed to ban people. Only Admins are able to.

Ed
07-31-2009, 01:50 PM
honestly wouldn't affect me much, i ban sammich and spambots.

i think i only used my banhammer one time, on flipking...

other than that, just sammich and ban friday.

i think the only people that should have the power to ban is admins and if a mod has a problem then they should go to them about it and see what they have to say instead of assuming something, treating to ban someone for pointing something out to them as they do to us. or ban us for bashing them... because they can bash us all the time but the first second that we tempt to say one mean hateful thing to them that affends them or call them "cock fuck" they will ban us. which is completely wrong. i think it is a good idea to take that power away from them.

I'm sure the Admins have plenty more to do with their time than read PMs from mods about members that violated a rule and need to be banned. This is a car forum, not the FBI headquarters forum. Its not that serious! Mods are mods for a reason and they should all have banning power. You can never have too many cops patrolling the streets. Makes things better for all of us. :goodjob: Theres always going to be a bad apple and if it takes a few members temporarily losing posting privileges to find out who is abusing their power then thats a small price to pay for the results yielded. Mods don't get paid to sit here and clean up all the bs and keep things civil. I think a lot of people don't realize that.

I think that most of what the mods do is correct, banning bots, and people that break rules. but yes banning cause the people there talking smack on talk it back is wrong. i think there should be a compromise. they should be able to keep there ban powers but should have to report the banning to an admin for final aproval. spam bots no need to report. but for members they should give a reason to do it. well other then sammich and godfather. there reason all on there own. just a thaught.

Ed
07-31-2009, 06:53 PM
we do give reasons to all admins and SM's. if the admin or another mod feels what we did was unjust they lift the ban.

I think the mod situation is out of control personally. I think if you are going to be a mod, then you should have to hold yourself to a certain standard—above and beyond the rules. Some of the mods on this forum just don't and that leads to a lot of the behavior here. Then you got mods who think they have a license to do whatever they want because they can delete their posts. They say something stupid, get owned, then start deleting posts. I had it happen to me very recently. He no longer has mod powers, thankfully.

Not to mention, there are way too many of them and the turnover as of late is ridiculous. I have seen some of the least respected members have been given mod powers. Not sure what is up with that.

I don't care who gets paid and who doesn't. It's not fucking rocket science. You sit your ass on here all day anyways and everyone loves the "clout" of being a mod on this large of a site. IMO, that is enough and if not, then you don't deserve it anyways. MODS DON'T GET PAID. THAT IS FORUM LIFE.

I also think that if your business is local and automotive based, you should not be a mod. Conflict of interest.

:lmao: LOL at you making another dumbass remark. If you where a mod you would know that when a post gets deleted that ANY other SM or Admin can still see the post. So what was I trying to hide from my own post? Had I hard deleted them you might have a good argument. Also do I care that I lost my powers? I was a SM for 3 years here, most have been doing something right all that time, but gets boring after awhile! Also FYI even Admin did not see anything wrong with what I said. Your just a paying sponsor, I chose not to be one, so therefore you got your way! :goodjob:

Apparently someone other than me was tired of your shit. Ha ha! Evan was the one claiming your demise!!!! Maybe he asked for them to be removed, because I sure didn't.

Personally I never had a problem with you until that day. AND if no one, including me, had a problem with what you said...then why did you delete it? I asked for it to stay, yet you still deleted it. That was where my problem was. Not with what you said. I can handle myself in an argument/discussion and can be over it just about as fast as it started.

in all their glory:

Subject line: Not really happy with the mods



business will increase if you do what your doing, you should also post something inthe coupons section if you havent already. lots of sponsors taking advatnage of that.



I talked to Dan about it, as long as you keep it in the car pics section its cool. Just do this, post up maybe 2-3 projects a week. You have to understand that when you post 15 projects, all the other threads dissappear and all you see is batlground..lol..thats where the complains come in, mix it up a little. I have taken away Mac n'u' MOD powers, he had not right and he knew to come into your thread and say any damn thing to you all. Mike has been sent an email also.



Hey Tracy, how have you been.Thanks for the heads up Tracy, I am handling the situation right now.


He decided to talk crap in one of our threads then delete all of their posts after there were 15-20 people viewing the thread. I don't have a problem with people giving their input, but I do have a problem with them doing so in a rude way then deleting it.

http://www.importatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?t=245316

Pretty sure you can see all of the deleted posts.


Thanks for your understanding. I'm not really one to complain much about my threads, but I don't like that someone took advantage of their powers knowingly, told me they were doing so in not so many words, then took action on it. If someone is going to say something, then be prepared to leave it and stand by it. It might make you think about what you say before you say it if you don't rely on the fact that you can delete it.

I also realize that we have been posting a lot and it is annoying some folks, but as I stated int he thread, we are just seeing what works. I hope you understand.

Thanks again.

I don't care about Mike. He isn't a mod and he can't delete threads. Thats why I am upset. Don't just post shit then delete it because you can. I can handle the criticism, just not the power abuse. Especially when IA is going thru all kinds of changing citing sponsor reasons.

I will tell you that we started posting because we noticed we were getting left behind when it comes to that. All of the other shops were posting all of their projects and we barely ever do. Then we started to check how much traffic the sponsor forums actually get as opposed to the other forums. It's not an ongoing issue and it has gone on for about a week or 2. I don't think it's the end of the world that after 8 years on the forum, we tried some things out to see what works best. It's not a long term thing. Just testing some things out. I will forward your PM to Dan though.

We have been posting in the coupon section. It is working great. We are actually definitely seeing the return on posting more. It just wasn't working in the sponsor section. The moment we moved out of the section, we saw an increase in views of our threads (outside of the sponsor forum) and quote requests from IA members.

We are in a weird spot because we have always been on the road racing, so that was our main form of advertising. It's new for us to have to promote on the forums like this and in this industry is is very important that you keep your name fresh in the minds of your target. People have a really short memory if you don't remind them.

Of course we have always been active on the forum, but in a different way. Again I appreciate your understanding and you working with us to figure all of this out.

So, go ahead and show me where I asked for your powers to be removed. I would have been happy with a talking to. I never suggested ANY course of action. I simply stated my feeling on the situation about you deleting your posts. Just like I already told you ;)

I even said I don't care about Mike for crying out loud. I never even brought him up.

Mach, I am sure you will write a nice lengthy response and I am trying to wait for it, but I have to go work on our house for a little while. Like I already said, I don't have a problem with you and I didn't want your powers removed. I want people to be held accountable for what they say. I don't want someone picking and choosing how the conversation should go. I can handle criticism and am quite used to it. That isn't the point. If you don't get the point, then I can be of any more help. I tried to handle it in the most professional way possible and I feel like you didn't. I'd be more than happy to put a period on it because it's not the serious to me. I'd rather not have the tension and I am way over it. If you aren't that's your choice and I understand, but do realize—I am over it. It would be nice if you could do the same. :) smilie face means I am trying to be nice.

The rest of the responces where just nothing more discussion, never talking bad about your business, just discussing marketing. You and Big Baller(mostly him) where the one's to get defensive. Him more a shit slinging contest, you just rebuttling anything I said. Hell I even got a funny neg rep from Big Baller from that thread! :lmao: I never abused my powers in there. I even told you prior to the discussion coming to an end that I was going to be deleting the post, to bring the thread back on topic.

Well, it's not the same. I told you there was a discussion about you deleting the posts. I am allowed to bring up my concerns via Pm with the administration if I feel fit. It's something I rarely do and I told you that I thought it was wrong for you to delete the posts and I told you I wondered what admin would say. No sneak attacks there, partner. The course of action they choose is not my concern. I don't run IA. I just try my best to support it. If IA is going to preach the "cleaning up their act" sermon, then do it. Start with the behavior of the mods.

I told you to leave the posts. You said you were going to delete them. I said that is not right. If it was a joke, then you should have said sorry. i was just joking or something of the sort, but you never did. You just kept getting more smart and more smart. That's not the way a mod should handle themselves in a thread OUTSIDE OF THE WL. PERIOD. It brought the following discussion way out of context because some people had already read it and were still posting like it was there. Ahem, Mike. That is all fine. Say what you want. I don't give a crap. Like I said, I never even mentioned anything about Mike because I believe he is allowed to SAY what he wants. It's a forum and I have always said it should be a place for open discussion. You don't like what I post, say it. But I have the right to defend it. I wanted people to know why we were doing what we were to calm the annoyance. IMO, you didn't like that I handled you, so you deleted it. That may not be the case, IYO. Either way, we disagree on that. I still NEVER asked for your powers to be removed. It's NOT the same.

And as you stated, if no one else had a problem with it, then why did he say you had no right to say it? Seems like maybe someone other than me did have a problem with it.

I'M GOING TO SAY IT AGAIN. ONE THING I AM NOT IS A LIAR. SO I HOPE THAT IS FULLY UNDERSTOOD NOW.

p.s. You do care about your powers or else you would have not felt the need to make the post you did in this thread addressing mine. I haven't gone out of my way to be mean to you or even pay attention to you after that—further proving that I was over it. Yet you felt the need to bring out in the open that you lost your mod powers because of me. I didn't call you out. You called yourself out. I kept it pretty vague for a reason. I think the ENTIRE mod situation is out of hand, not just what happened with you. The reality is, you lost them because of your actions. Not because I am a sponsor and asked for it to happen.

Well, it's not the same. I told you there was a discussion about you deleting the posts. I am allowed to bring up my concerns via Pm with the administration if I feel fit. It's something I rarely do and I told you that I thought it was wrong for you to delete the posts and I told you I wondered what admin would say. No sneak attacks there, partner. The course of action they choose is not my concern. I don't run IA. I just try my best to support it. If IA is going to preach the "cleaning up their act" sermon, then do it. Start with the behavior of the mods.

I told you to leave the posts. You said you were going to delete them. I said that is not right. If it was a joke, then you should have said sorry. i was just joking or something of the sort, but you never did. You just kept getting more smart and more smart. That's not the way a mod should handle themselves in a thread OUTSIDE OF THE WL. PERIOD. It brought the following discussion way out of context because some people had already read it and were still posting like it was there. Ahem, Mike. That is all fine. Say what you want.

Wow again getting very defensive over nothing. My very responce in that thread was a joke, the rest where discussion remarks. Which you discussed. You did not handle me or you would not have complained. Say that you complained because I deleted all you want, only one who will believe you is you! I did it to clean up the thread. I had nothing to hide, because any SM or Admin could see what was said. But I guess we are just getting told two different things. But when I talked with Admin he said that he did not see anything wrong with what I said. But oh well.... :lmfao:

Then you got mods who think they have a license to do whatever they want because they can delete their posts. They say something stupid, get owned, then start deleting posts. I had it happen to me very recently. He no longer has mod powers, thankfully.

Man what would be the odd's that there was another thread between you and another male SM, where a discussion happened and that mod deleted post, then lost there powers. Wow out of 38k members, 18 of them being SM's, half of them rarely ever on. So what would be the odds of that! Wow. I am sorry you never did call me out. You where calling out the other mod that lost his powers over a discussion in that thread! :lmfao:

Also had you been a regular everyday member, I am willing to bet that I would have gotten a warning from Admin, instead your a sponsor, and I lost my powers! Again you are right that had nothing to do with it! :lmfao:

Not defensive, speaking my mind now that I have been called a liar. You got handled, sir. I complained because you deleted it. Be ready to say what you mean and mean what you say around me. I'm not down with that crap. If I have to be held accountable for looking like a dumb ass by not being able to alter discussions, then so should the mods. THINK BEFORE YOU POST. Act like you CAN'T delete it. Sure, it's expected that you should clean up threads when MEMBERS get out of line, but when the mods start it....whole 'nother other. Like I said, a simple, "My bad, I was just joking" would have sufficed. But YOU are the liar (and I'm not a mind reader). That's why you never said that. You WEREN'T joking. It just sounds all good now.

It also is pretty sad that the admin can't own up to his own decisions and has to try to make me sound like a liar. A whole 'nother issue. I guess I'll have to see what Paul says. Don't want to be sneaky or be taken for a liar, so I will go ahead and announce it here.

LOL At going to Paul. You really need to get the fuck over yourself. Do you think that maybe Atif doesnt want to get in the middle of it. He handled it made you happy that my powers where removed. Which you have already said. So what more should he do? Just because your a sponsor he is going to make you happy. He told me that I never should have said anything. He said that I had no right to you. Which he told both of us. He may not have seen what you got so mad over the post about, since I never said anything negative towards you. Which is what he told me! So I dont see where he lied to you or was sneaky about it!

I did the right thing. Sorry you're too ignorant to see that. You don't respect me as a sponsor or is it because I am a sponsor? My posts and opinions have less credentials because i am a sponsor? You think what you did is ok? Really? Well, I don't and you are right, I am a sponsor. Comes with certain perks, I guess, even if you don't ask for them apparently. I just don't abuse them—unlike you. I try my best to be professional when it is warranted and about our shop and then still hang out and chill with the members in the WL. I don't ask for any special treatment. I'm sure Paul will vouch for that, but wait I am a sponsor, so everything I say doesn't count and if anyone sticks up for me it's only because I am a sponsor. Ridiculous.

If Atif didn't want to get in the middle of it, too bad. He is an admin. Comes with the territory. What more should he do, you ask? Own up to his actions just like you should have. Not try to make me out to be a liar.

Mach, I am sure you will write a nice lengthy response and I am trying to wait for it, but I have to go work on our house for a little while. Like I already said, I don't have a problem with you and I didn't want your powers removed. I want people to be held accountable for what they say. I don't want someone picking and choosing how the conversation should go. I can handle criticism and am quite used to it. That isn't the point. If you don't get the point, then I can be of any more help. I tried to handle it in the most professional way possible and I feel like you didn't. I'd be more than happy to put a period on it because it's not the serious to me. I'd rather not have the tension and I am way over it. If you aren't that's your choice and I understand, but do realize—I am over it. It would be nice if you could do the same. smilie face means I am trying to be nice.

From what you are saying, Atif made me out to be a liar, unless I am just misunderstanding you. Didn't he tell you I asked for your powers to be removed? Or is that just an assumption you made?

You keep bring up the sponsor fact. Not me. It seems as if you are trying to say if I wasn't a sponsor, nothing would have happened. I'm not mad that anyone ever has anything to say about the shop (even though you "didn't"). I welcome it. YOU DELETED YOUR POSTS BECAUSE YOU WERE LOOKING DUMB. I complained as a member about that, not as a sponsor. NEVER ONCE DID I PULL THAT SPONSOR CARD. But you keep doing it with your responses.

He never said that you wanted my powers taken. Like i have said many times it was Sponsor vs. SM non sponsor! Money is going to win. Also I was far from looking dumb in my post. If that was true there would not have been others agreeing with me.
