Which dickhead small man syndrome been-bullied-at school Mod removed Altratz's post about sapphire doors and gave him an infraction?

The bloke has had his pride and joy broken into, stolen and luckily left down the road as the low life cunts couldn't start it ...

All he did was put a post up asking if anyone knew the whereabouts of a new Sapphire passenger door, and if a P100 pickup door would fit, as if he can't get a door the insurance will likely write off a mint well modded 4x4 saff worth 9-10k



I Salute you Mods, you really are cock-ends at times ..... At least just move the post and explain what he did wrong, instead of alienating another member who just needs some help......

Join the PCSO's if you feel you need a bit of power, at least you will get paid to be a cock....


Awaiting my infraction/ban/etc etc from a retard with a pathetic justification of your actions

And no doubt you will delete this or brush it under the carpet to policies and problems

Lol , i havent been on the site for long and ive seen some rants about this also , maybe a point where they need to look into it and maybe give verbal warnings or a easy going PM.. Nobody is perfect but abuse is wrong. (abuse of moderation powers)

Wil,
Whilst I agree this site is no longer about enthusiasts, the moderators are only following orders and doing a thankless task set by "da managment" !

The fact is, this site is about making money as it is now a big business and the owners want a cut of everything or they ban it.....simples !

It aint a democracy so we have to like it or lump it

Moderation is good, but when it determents the users of this forum, its bad.

Karl @ Norris Motorsport last posted here 7/5/09, for his post to be removed and deleted. Was an in-thread post as well. His knowledge is INVALUABLE.

I know he had spoke to me before about the stupidity including the moderation here.

Another example, and another fine member lost.

Its OK, I'm into fuel efficient cars now due to the mileage I do

The moderation on here or lack of it over the last few weeks has been shocking. Some of the World Cup threads for instance have been appalling. The insults on some of the posts are bordering on racism and inciting hatred.

Substitute "paki" or "jew" in place of English, Scottish, Welsh or Maltese even in some of the insults and the place would be in an uproar.

An absolute joke of moderating on what is becoming a joke of a website.

Its true. I think some mods confuse wanting information and advise with wanting parts or items.

A while back i asked how much certain RS Turbo parts were worth, such as engine, full genuine kit etc as i was going to look at buying some in the evening, it then got deleted and i was given an infraction as i was deemed to be verging on a "For Sale" post.
I mean WTF, i was hoping to get some advise so i wouldn't be ripped off but it gets deleted.

I didnt renew my gold membership exactly because of these sort of decisions and i think a lot of other peoplr are/will do the same

It is crazy i agree they are happy for you to pay your gold member fees then go around deleting things without telling you.

e.g about 2 months ago i got accused of being a tool trader even though i work in a investment bank in london.

and today a car i had for sale has been deleted totally i know nothing of why etc

crazy crazy place
