what does a moderator do?
 

it appears to me not a damn thing. when i question someones posting i get told that i should have repoeted his posts. is that not what i mod should do...monitor posts and what not. i know my posts have been watched before. big diesel and cfm and others come to mind for being watched by mods. but yet when the golden child kevin posts with name calling, personal attacks, and as much or more profanity than i ever used..nothing gets said...unless another poster reports it. what a crock of ****. this board has went way down hill. i see no useful information on here, but the fights are awesome..just like a big cb radio. when someone asks qusetions they get answered. when the person does not like the answer he/she can go inot attacks and as long as he/she is in good with the mods then everything is okie dokie. gman seems to be the only bright spot here. he seems to stay straight, his posts are always informative and does not seem to have any personal biasis. well, anyway. looking forward to my banning for this. see you all in a week or so..if i decide to bless you with my presense at all. CYA.

Then leave.

Boy.... you gonna be in trouble NOW!! :lol2:

rev. you big dummy. i see u tell everyone to leave, but u fail to understand that u need us for the board. hae u ever noticed that hardly anyone new comes here? have you noticed that u got your favorites, and if anyone disgrees with them or you that they get told to stop. U locked threads because kevin cannot take criticisim...but it appears you locked them when everyone got sick of him running his chops. i can leave, you can chase everyone else off too...then what will you have. thats right, not a damn thing. u see, there is more going on here than your power trip, you can't see that...because of your power trip. sometimes it would be best to try to work out a situation, whether you like to or not, to keep your customers (customers being myself and the other that you so readilly tell to leave or ban permantly). cause you see, when all of the customers are gone there is no longer a business to run. i know, in your world, CAD will live forever. you really have not noticed how many people no longer post here anymore, or as much. I personally just come here to get my drama fix, maybe every 4 or 5 days...if that. anyway, keep running things the way you are. maybe that will help out headborg and freddog with there up and comming sites, because all of the people you chase off will look for a place to go.

I want Steve Booth back.

It appears that someone has gotten their panties in a bunch.:rofl:

I am a customer!!!!

Wow and for the last five years I thought I was just a voluntary member free to come and go as I please....
JD as with all things in life take the good with the bad.
IT IS WHAT IT IS....

As far a favorites, don't you have a favorite drink, a favorite tractor, a favorite animal, etc.. Hell, on some days one or the other of my kids is my favorite depending on their moods at the time, (they are girls so I need not say anymore...)

I have been a member for 5 years and the few people that I used to disagree with on a regular basis are gone, Ardmore Farms, Yoopr, & Big Diesel all 3 self described conservative right wingers. Hmmm interesting it seems that when the going gets tough the loudest conservatives run away or they are pushed out.
The bottom line is that not every one is going to get along or agree with the procedures in place.
I always tell my 13 year old she has every right to question any situation if she feels a need to speak her mind, however the demeanor in which she expresses herself will determine how strongly she is listened too. I got the feeling the rev could care less if you come or go as your post was quite childish....

Wah Wah....

Have no idea why the O.P. is whining, but surely the Great One can solve whatever dilema perplexes you.:eek1:

No malice intended..... I'd like to know just what problem you have with Obama?

I truly am curious. If I'm not mistaken, he is one of you. You are one of US! I would NEVER suppose that all people of his kind would agree with him or vote for him, and certainly NOT based on race. But, you are very vocal in your opposition to him, and I'd like to know why.

:roll3: I am done trying to convince others, plus why hijack this dude's thread with a ton of political rhetoric?

Um... well.... YOU were the first to HIJACK! Your comment came out of the blue and had NOTHING to do with the thread, such as it was. And I found the attached picture offensive.

I'm not looking to hijack a thread that is about to get locked either. But, I'd like to know what makes you denegrate our President that way. Not looking for any "political rhetoric" either. Didn't ASK you a question that should require any such thing.

Just another "hit and run" artist, are you? :roll:

You would be wrong. Sorry I didn't include you in on the conversation. I didn't realize that your opinion was required.


Nope. I believe I've just told the whiners to leave.

I guess those 32 new registrations that got approved yesterday were a figment of my imagination.

Nope. I locked threads because it was easier (and cleaner) than deleting or editing the personal attacks out, or banning everyone that was involved with them.

Nope. I locked them when I was notified there was an issue.

Okay.

Define "everyone else". Would that be the group of people that I can count on one hand who left because the "big bad rev" got made a mod?

Over 16,000 members.

I tried that. You ignored it. So I locked the thread. That's right - it's all your fault.

How many people have I banned permanently? Do you even know?

:lol2:

Just to keep tally, here are the methods tried to pacify the kindergartners who love the drama:

1. Delete offensive posts. Nope - can't do that. Then the whiners claim I am overmoderating.

2. Edit offensive posts. Nope - can't do that. Then the whiners claim I am changing what they are saying.

3. Ban offenders. Nope - can't do that. Then they go start other message boards and whine about CAD.

4. Do nothing. Nope - can't do that. Then the trolls take over.

5. Ask politely for people to stay on topic and/or stop with the attacks. Nope - can't do that. The whiners won't listen anyway.

6. Lock the threads if and when they derail into attacks. Nope - can't do that. Then jd112488 will start a thread complaining about it.

Am diabolically opposed to just about everything Obama does and believes but have never felt obligated to justify my cogitations to another.
Like you said this thread was destined to be locked regardless;it is utterly ridculous anyways and I was responding to the post above mine. Just a crack at all the mentally ill, politically correct, over- sensitive, liberals on this site.:eek1::thumbsup::eek1: I know, I know, you are offended by that too. Please don't bother telling me. Thanks.

I got a plan. Everybody listen.

Step 1. Start a trucking company.

Step 2. Employ everyone on CAD. Even 1/4 cabbers :), Mommee and non-drivers too. This is a TEAM effort!

Step 3. Peepee and moan to the gov't.

Step 4. Get a billion or so in bailout money.

Step 5. Tell the gov't I forgot that I promised everyone bonuses, but hey, it is only a few hundred million.

Step 6. ????? (South Park reference)

Step 7. Profits!!! (South Park reference #2)

Quite possibly. But, I think you meant diametrically. :lol2:

Nope, I am diabolically opposed. Means the same thing as fiercely, boldly, vehemently, etc. Diametrically opposed would have worked as well, but diabolically sound harsher.

Not according to Webster's dictionary or Merriam-Webster's thesaurus, but.... I get your point. I considered that you might mean it that way which is why I said, "quite possibly." :thumbsup:
