My buddy told me that Randy Venier used his Mod permissions to ban him. How lame is that. He's been such a helpful member here in answering my questions on my 928. I was following his engine pull posts and was learning a lot from it. All his posts were all credible until Randy V started on him. How is it that DanglerB, low miler and others have the same reason about the Mod Randy V and his temper tantrums. I thought we were all adults here? Anyways, I am glad that 98% of the members here are NOT like Randy V.

 

His post on engine pull is intact. Last entry was a little after noon westcoast time if you want to go look for it.

I didn't notice anything in that thread the might trigger Randy's actions. Musta been something done behind the scenes.


For those reading along at home, riding along for a long time, posting a lot and such without stepping up to Rennlist membership is hardly considerate to those that actively support the site and its expenses. I try not to discriminate in support and responses. But folks gain a significant advantage from shared knowledge should at least be williong to share the burden of supporting the costs and overhead.

Randy, you didn't toss him for non-membership, didja? I just re-upped my membership for another couple years, so don't get too mad at me... Why two years? Cuz there's no pay-this-amount-for-a-lifetime-membership option on the membership page.

 

+1...I just renewed mine this evening.

 

One of the first things we learn as adults is to not believe everything you hear (read).

 

Just read his post on the 'kudos to danglerb' debacle of a thread on Pelican re:
him getting banned over here.... Still not sure about the 'marble collection' of the person who gave that thread 'TWO stars', tho...

Makes ya wonder... However, I don't believe EVERYTHING I hear (read!)

 

Hey SD928S, just so you know posting the contents of a Private Message is a big NO-NO!!!

 

Can a 'user' be banned?
Well, this will all be gone when RV wakes up . . .

Posting PM's. Bad Ju-Ju.

 

1. SD seems like a troll, since he's posted only 6 posts prior to this thread and isn't a paying member. My money's on that he's a regular here, maybe even Dano himself.

2. If I hd to GUESS I'd say the PM before Randy's "excuse me" reply was edited for content and Randy's reply makes no sense

3. People don't get banned for stupid **** like this, there's more to the story -- has to be.

4. JD's PM as quoted by Leo seems very odd, I've known JD as long as all of us and I've not seen him talk that way.

 

ditto...Especially with #2 and 3.

 

Banned SD 928s for posting private communications to a public forum.

MPDano was banned for threats of physical violence in that engine-pull thread.
