Truck Driving Jobs

Moderators,

Over the last several months, there has been a trend on several of the forums, of certain posters slamming anything that is said, typical CB Trash Talk. Many people come here to ask a legitimate question, get some advice, or just try to start a topic of interest, and the BS starts. An individual answers a question in an honest, well thought out manner, and he/she gets slammed with numerous stupid and off topic remarks. Forbid anyone post an interesting topic of technical interest, it quickly gets sidetracked to obscenity.

Not only do drivers, potential drivers and their spouses read this board, but members of the general public that just want to get a better idea about truckers and their lives read, and boy do they get an eyeful.

There have been many post that are disgraceful and uncalled for!

I know the large number of post on a daily basis is hard to keep up with, but could someone please clean this place up and throw the trash out. Trucking has a bad enough public image, and reading some of the BS on this side does not help.

Thanks,

CountryHorseman

Will put some together when I shut down tommorow, getting ready to catch some sleep for tommorows run. But there are plenty of derogatory remarks just in the last week on the New Driver Get help forum. Any string that relates to radios, especially the one were conversations get going regarding illegal operations. Anyway, will see what I can work up tommorow.

There have been 2 posters that I have had issues with, but for some reason have not seen them in the last couple of weeks.

Have a great night.

Keep in mind, though, that we aren't going to shut down a thread and ban a poster for disagreeing with you, either. Some posters are more colorful than others, some are more straight forward. But most people don't cross the line. Some may walk on it, but most people here know what the limts are.

If you point out a thread and we find that a poster stepped over the line, we will take appropriate action. But as far as garbage on this forum, I'll call that one as off the mark. Comparitively speaking, this forum has a more mature atmosphere than some of the others. Sure, you'll see bickering and some potshots taken at people, but overall, the forum is pretty self-policing.

But as Scoe said, shoot us the links and we'll take a look.

Here is one for you, the entire string is irrelavant and childish. But this quote below is typical of this guy and another which have posted on the same string. No substance, no intelligence, just aggrevating stupidity.

The trucking industry wants respect, but we have stupidity like this being posted on this and other forums, as well as on the public radio (Citizens Band), they will not be any respect given, as the typical public, only remembers the BS and not the good stuff. Not to mention allowing and glorifying illegal activities,, be it they actually participate or are just dreaming.

Ray, These guys are goating you! They have no better thrill in life to aggrevate law abiding people.

Word of advice! QUIT!

I like you, do not condone or participate in unlawful activities, but these guys are just CB Rambo's, that probably own nothing more than a Cobra 25. Real professionals would not participate in this stupidity.

Use your talent and abilities elsewhere, and leave this guys to dream and act stupid.

If the moderators would do their jobs, and not condone the activities they claim to be participating, they would be warned and/or taken from the board. But since you encourage the comedy hour, they get away with it.

If you have something of value to post, then do it, but do not respond to the stupid comments after the fact. I have found myself doing that much to often.

not exactly mr nice guy yourself

Ok, none of the last 3 post make any sense. There are no direct attacks on any person, the fact are facts in my statements and nothing made up in a dream world. And everything in my post represent a legal and respectiful image of the industry, except for the references to those that choose to continually talk trash and not have any respect for facts and truth.

None of my post invite an attack, they merely state facts and truth! So if the shoe fits, wear it! Also in the process of trying to talk some sense into RR, some have choosen to continually goat the situation, instead of stopping.

no no ,calling people stupid is fine, and it's "goad" not goat. we tried to talk sense into ray but he posts the same thing over and over and over so we just decided to have fun with it, if it bothers you so much dont read it, ray doesnt seem to have a problem with it, he is a big boy and can defend himself.
