I'm calling BULLSHIT on this. Come on......

Soooo..... this was supposed to be a "Welcome" thread, and instead a few have taken their first shots at the "new guy." Had to happen. But still.... too bad.

So either the guy made a dumb mistake.... or.... God forbid.... attempted a joke that was misunderstood or didn't come across too well (sound familiar, GP?).

Chubs, I'm sure that in the 16 hours of "Moderator Training Courses" you took that it WAS explained to you that you were expected to be perfect right from Day One. It is also on pages 12, 19, 36, 548, and 1672 of your "Moderator's Instruction Manual." I know that you have that in both hard-copy and electronic form.

Man, a bit of tolerance and patience goes a long ways sometime, folks.

[GP]

so does saying your sorry AND MEANING IT!

done with the friggin pics now. This is serious. Let the banning begin if you like, but you are going to hear some straight shooting now. This place is a disaster and the mods ARE NOT HELPING fix it one bit. As a matter of fact, the mods are facilitating the constant BS and drama. There are a lot of people here would would love to see this place work, but stop trying to place blame on individual groups with imaginary agendas and conspiracy theories. People need to stop being so damn sensitive. It's a fucking internet message board.

"Done with the pics" is probably overdue. But don't stop them entirely! They are pretty good, IMHO.

And to be honest, I dread more of your "straight shooting." At least in public. It was rarely productive and usually ended up exactly like this.... with you and me (and perhaps a small cast of others) dragging a thread off topic and trying to one-up each other. I don't miss it. And forgive me in advance if I don't participate after this.

This whole attitude of "disaster" in the Upstate NY domain and the premise that the Mods are neglecting their obligation to "fix" it is comical. But let's give it the benefit of the doubt and hope that the Chubster will be a positive influence! Treat him with a bit of respect and give him a bit of time to figure this all out, and it just may happen.

[GP]

I would absolutely LOVE to see that happen, but right out of the gate was an epic fail for chub.

Don't get me wrong, it is not entirely all the mod(s) fault. Hell, I'll even take some of the blame, I'm not always Mr. Niceguy. But I have yet to see a single mod EVER say, "sorry guys, I fucked up and what I did has not helped the situation, but instead has hurt things". Just a little bit of contrition goes a long way. There are a lot of strong personalities here, all have their opinions. Not everyone has to agree. Debates are healthy, unfortunately at times, some people to not debate fairly and that is when things have gotten out of hand. Instead, all we ever hear is there is a "group" or "crew" with an "agenda". Come on, do you really think this is some kind of organized conspiracy? This whole "anti-mod" crew is laughable. No one is anti-mod, except when the mods do things that are plain stupid ie: the last day of chubby's posts/signatures. It seems like everyone is always trying to place labels on a single person or group of people and then play the victim. It is like these providers that have been chased off. OH PUHLEEASE! No one has chased anyone off. BB's list was laughable. Lets see an actual list with solid facts and proof. There is a small minority who is only vocal via PM's. They make these salacious claims without any basis in reality. People need to lighten up, especially the mods. It is an Internet message board. You can't take things OR YOURSELF too seriously.

It would also be nice if a mod(s) kept their word, but that is a whole other issue. I would not want to call anyone a hypocrite publicly.

[pyramider]

Boy was I wrong ... I thought we were supposed to called him Mr. Chubs in order to show the proper respect.

So Mr. Chubs has the current upset NY modtard team showed you where the modtard bathroom is yet? Or are they just dangling a key teasing you?

[Whitenoise]

I say we form a posse and......oh wait, don't want to be one of those agitators.
