I used to spend time on a diesel truck forum. It was moderated to death, people banned, etc until some of the participants began their own forum. The old one still exists, but the new one is where you get the best info and cutting edge knowledge. Funniest part was that the most obnoxious guy on the old one, kinda like Ryanf here, was one of the new moderators and owners. One of the best moves anyone ever made. The old forum lost its zip, and people still go there, but anything the mods think might cost them advertising $$$ is quickly sanitized. Same thing is happening here. Guess we could always start our own forum, but is this small part of my life really worth the work? Options happen. You just have to want it bad enough.

Rest assured, on the Pcad Cycling Zen Forum, you would all be banned the first week. Especially that subversive commie botto.
We might keep Chipcom around for the ice cream.

The moderation here is astounding. I've probably had 100 posts of mine deleted. I've never spammed, trolled, used profanity or attacked another member. But just disagreeing with the wrong people will get your posts deleted.

I've done all of the above and not only have I disagreed with anyone and everyone, I've been disagreeable to anyone and everyone. I've yet to have been banned or had a post deleted. So it's probably just you.

wow. I had no idea this was gong on. I need to start some threads and see if I can catch the mods attention. I feel sort of....left out.

I'm not a fan of the moderation of this forum. Most internet forums lock a thread, so there is transparency as to why and what the mods are doing. Here, it is like the pictures say, its a silent dictatorship. People are banned quietly and never appear again. Threads do the same. \
It is against the spirit of the internet if you ask me.

I'll thank those who let me decide for myself.

All I did was agree with BD, saying the mods are being ridiculous

You think?
Suck all the fun out of this place why don't you?
I'd call them idiots, but I'd get banned. So I'd have to categorically state, for the record, that at this juncture, they are not being idiots.*
