Default Gold member rules

People are posting asking how they can join so they can advertise their car etc, but as no one seems to care or show any interest in owning/running the site any more, I personally think people should be able to stick an advert in GD.
I know that will mean current gold members will moan, who fucking cares any more? No one else seems to, so why should be all be good as gold (excuse the pun lol) when no one else seems to give a fuck?!

You will get existing GM complaining though.

Yeah I know they would moan, but you never know, it could rouse the new owners into action

i personally dont agree, it aint fair on the existing gold members, just explain to anyone wanting to join that unfortunatly due to the site being under a transition of owners no new gold members are being accepted at this time many many other sites only allow new paid up members at certain times so dont think it will cause too much of an issue

Well Im not removing any that do appear, pretty much stopped moderating too unless I get a pm asking for something specific.
If the owners cant be fucking bothered to say something then I sure as hell cant be fucked to keen running it for them!

If anyone wants to step me down as a mod then do so, but I couldnt give a fuck anymore to be honest
Unfortunatly, their couldnt care less attitude is getting to me too...

Maybe, but there is nothing to stop someone in the meantime atleast saying something like "its all going through" etc etc.
I know been said before, but if they have the PF logo on their site now, there is no reason why something cant be said on here.

Fuck the lot of the useless cunts, they can moderate their own fucking site cause Im not doing for them anymore!

Who said anything about panicing?!?!?!
Im just fed up of the way this place has gone to shit TBH!
Why the hell would a username need to be banned and reregister?
This was never the case in the past, so I dont see why it has to be now.
I stepped down afew years ago due to not having time to be online, and Stu never banned my name, WTF are you on about?

ps above was posted because as just moderators we dont have the admin rights to downgrade you so make your choise ppl i dont mean to be an asshole but im fed up with the bitching and moaning, i have been with this site from very near the begining and would like to think i will see it to the end, and with admin or not what was started as a good ford community and still is needs to be looked after not because we are here for stu or anyone else but for the pure fact that its passionford.com one of the most highly recognised ford enthusiast forums on the internet today, does it really matter who owns it?????

I couldnt give a flying fuck who owns.
The issue is the fact they have no interest in it, or the people that are running it for them!
We all know there are many issues that need sorting out, and can only be done by the owners/admin, and where are they? No where to be seen!

Yeah, thats a great idea isnt it
Id love to have to start using another name rather than the one everyone knows me as now

If anything, this is yet another example of an issue where admin is needed on this site!!!!!!

Dont get me wrong, Im happy to mod this site, but its got beyond a joke now

Could be something to do with traders etc, which is fair enough if it is the case.

But would have been handy if it was common knowledge in here. We, as a team, dont look like muppets when the question is asked.

Agree?
