People post in the Road Cycling forum for a reason. A sense of community is one. We share like interests. When in other threads this commonality is shifted a bit. Not saying I don't like other forums but I prefer staying in this one.

Trust me, we would LOVE to leave things be. We don't like to have to do unnecessary work - don't forget we are volunteers - it takes time away from us actually enjoying the forums. But when we get complaints saying that it should be moved or belongs in foo, we have to balance things out a bit. FYI the decisions to move things are not made by one person. Whenever we get a complaint or reported post, we discuss it amongst the mods and come about with a solution....

So please believe me when I say that we are not trying to make things bad in here for people. We have tried to have a good mix, which is why Addiction and Twitter Feed are left alone. But when it gets to be more of a foo type forum with complaints then we have to start allowing this place to get back to what it was meant to be about - road cycling.

It's not an easy task and there are times when one person will get upset but that one person vs a whole handful of people that point out it doesn't belong here....well, the moderation team is doing what they feel is best for the forum as a whole.

As for the cleansing thread, it was a fantastic topic but it started to become silly (foo-like) with people quoting themselves when the topic was indeed an interesting one. I had posted to please keep it on topic for I'm sure others would love to hear the responses. It continued to contain silly posts, therefore it was moved to Foo. When you get a chance, try to go over the thread again and maybe you'll understand why it was moved. Please keep in mind that we don't just go into a thread and take action, it's usually reported before we even discuss it.

This thread, is about THIS forum and because of its novelty was left to be enjoyed amongst those that would appreciate it most.

PCAD, that was awesome! Man, if they ever ban you, I think I'll never come back. You're the only thing left that's interesting here anymore.

Okay, I did and I do- understand what you are saying that is. My apologies if I seemed irate, really I was not.
Sometimes thoughts that I put onto the computer are lost in translation, the hint of humor or intended sarcasm is missed. It's probably my fault for not being a better writer.
Along the same line, my wife daily admonishes me as I am leaving for work ...." Don't joke with the nurses, they never know when you are kidding".

You can be the friggin self proclaimed BF Pope, but if you'r not the moderator why should I care if you have your eye on me. Jeesh.....do I have to explain everything here. I thought you were smart. And besides , I just happen to be a Rhodes scholar:p

Why would a Rhodes scholar choose to live in South Bend?:p

I think it's funny when threads are locked or moved randomly. I like drama.

The intellectual climate- it is just scintillating- a U ofNotre Dame effect

I suspect.

Grumpy McTrumpy 01-31-11 01:56 PM

This would be a lot more believable if the Rhodes Scholarship searchable records database included anything whatsoever from Notre Dame University. It does not.

Why oh why would you waste a moment of time checking the database. I AM KIDDING!:)

He's lecturing you, nobody wants to actually talk to you.

Hey wait, you're like an MD/surgeon, right?

You could throw me a friggin bone you know you little crash happy ingrate. You know, like 'Pcad, for a guy who plays two hours a month, you're not really that bad, but please, never sing in public again' or something like that.
