    Ok serious question for members... (poll)

    With all of the drama on the boards between a few members and a sponsor... i think the best option is leaving it up to the members with what to do. i personally feel both are at fault for the situation and you decide the next action.

    Tracy/Will get banned: [] Yes [] No

    All this BS is quite anoying, trivial and childish... I say if they agree to just put it behind them and behave like adults, they stay. No need to make them leave a great community becuase of some stupid argument that started for no real reason...

    But yeah, if the keep up with this stupid childish behavior, ban them... Especially all the shit about fighting.

    I'm going to wait to vote until I see their response to this, and if they decide to put it behind them...

    Exactly. Yeah it's childish, but there's no need to ban them from here for it. IMHO, bannage would only make it worse, because inevitably a "Bring back Tracy/Will" thread would start, or people who are still registered would begin speaking on their behalf and whatnot. The drama that would ensue is not worth the trouble. I think they should both just chill, though.

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    i want to know what the REAL issue with this is...If its cause of will being a keyboard warrior, i think that what BG did was dumb as fuck for business in that case. gonna go beat up everyone now??? BUT if there is a actually issue, it needs to be heard and a neutral party post why they are fighting and why shit like this happened. It was immature to come home and see BG post 50 threads about something gay as that happening.
    FUCK B&D COMMUNICATIONS!

    Absolutely not, as with all drama, it eventually blows over, and the ones not involved will eventually forget as well in time. What good is banning someone? Never solves the problem in the end.

    For some reason... I highly doubt a site sponsor would get banned... especially one that's so involved/controlling over IA. Just my opinion...

    Also another point... it's not really too fair of a poll since on a select few actually know what the animosity between both parties truely consists of... and trust me, it's a lot of stuff. =x

    I think Will needs to grow up...and tracy as much as you are a nice person from what I have experinced on here...needs to not cause a big ruckus in public...but I dont think they need banned.

    no on the ban. but it seems this thread is bringing out the cheerleaders once agian. this whole issue needs to be dropped, and leave it at that. if will has a problem with battlegrounds, and legitiamate things to say, let him put it in the sponcer's corner just like anyone else can about good shop experiences. then, his experience is out there for the average reader to judge. anything saying bad experiences with any sponcer or shop, should be left alone. if it becomes drama filled, delete everythingt except that complaint, and the SHOPS responce. then lock it. then its there to be viewed and people can read both sides and draw their own conclusions. i think this would loose the drama and acusations of paul bieng a cock rider, cuz hes actually a pretty cool guy.
    cliff notes:
    dont ban.
    make a forum where shop experiences can be posted.
    lock the threads after initial post and rebuttal, if any, from the shop comes.
    let the people decide who is right.
    and deal with those who keep bringin it up in different ways, ie-big baller , sixfifty, and any of the sm who do it. everyone knows as soon as tracy or will gets insulted in a blatent waste of internet bandwith, it goes back to this same shit.
    When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I put aside childish things.

    Errm.. I don't think it's really fair to decide anything until Tracy gets a fair chance to respond. I know she's been out of town at an event all weekend, and there's 7+ threads about what happened at the Varsity.

    In response to the question posed, I don't think banning Will and Tracy will solve anything, honestly. You'd have to ban the ENTIRE group of Speedmonkey and people who have problems with BG, and the ENTIRE BG group and all their supporters. Which isn't really a viable option, I think.

    Banning Dan, Tracy, or other members involved would be completely worthless. We're all entitled to our own individual and personal drama. However, since the group in question is an IA sponsor, I'd say there should be some form of diciplinary action in that respect.

    Frankly, I could care less what led up to the varsity conflict, but that kind of public display is unacceptable. It looks bad for BG as well as IA for being associated with the name. The varsity is one of the few events we have left that draws so many enthusiasts in the atlanta area. Was a potential fist fight in the parking lot worth the risk of losing the varsity as a meet spot?

    If i was running IA, I'd definetely consider some sort of probation system for BG. I wouldn't be suprised if i got flamed for it, but from what i've read, this is one of the few and proud constructive criticism posts in a sea of bullshit.

    This is how i see it:

    Let all of this drama go with the understanding that one more inappropriate outburst from BG would mean diciplinary action. The diciplinary action in this case being the temporary or permanent removal of BG advertisement from the IA website. (Which would go for ANY sponsor that creates an uncomfortable atmosphere at a public meet.)

    SUMMARY FOR THE LAZY: Let it go for now... But... If something goes down again with battleground being the agressor in a public place... Then there would need to be further action by import atlanta.

    ummm why? Will has never been to BG for work so how can he post up a shop experience?

    i agree, but i'm sure you can see where i'm coming from... one of the threads even brought Topspeed into it, so this shit has to stop its fucking annoying.

    i agree except for the fact this isn't just BG problem, the same will go for all of the SM cheerleaders.
