When a corporation this large has dissent with its customers(us)the problem is more than likely caused by management (Admin & Mods) and not by the customers. I would suggest that management take a hard long look at itself before moving on. You say that no one sponsor has more sway than another and that may be true and I hope it is. But that is not the preception by a lot your customer base and preception is what matters. You have some outstanding mods, RagnCajn, Curt, Nikon, Bronco and Mike Granger come to mind, you know there there and you know there knowledgable and they don't interfer at the drop of a hat. KInda like a good referee in the boxing ring, the less you see of him the better the fight. While others jump in at the least little thing to let you know they are running the show, maybe a small man complex. Kinda like picking up the lariat if you remember that fiasco. Sometimes I wonder if the mods have ever sat around a campfire late into the night sharing a nightcap with fellow hunters, I can imagine one saying "stay on subject". When people like Higgins and Chille Rojo speak about calling we should all shut up and listen, likewise when Dan Carey talks about rifles we need to pay attention. I don't know if these are 3 of the 4 banned members but if they are the first thing that comes to mind is cutting off your nose in spite of your face.
John,
If you hosted a party and I arrived at your house as a guest and then proceeded to continually slur you, made veiled insults, disrupted the party, disrespected your home and family, coerced other trouble makers to do the same, caused other respected guest to leave because of my and my friends poor behavior, ignored your pleas for me to stop, then you found evidence that I had invited others for a free for all there, and in that evidence you discovered a coordinated and malicious mission of ill will and destruction aimed at you - how would you react?
It really isn’t all that difficult to understand, is it? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
