A Final Comment
Well... Unfortunately, I was unable to return before BOTH my threads were locked. Seems as though their are many things wrong with this board and/or its power hungry "Super" moderators. I don't see the relevance in a ban that was placed on me where the reason is "not specified". If I had made any threats or said anything that could be taken offensive then it would be warranted as I would not allow it on my board either. But a temporary ban for a topic in the middle of a discussion in the SMACK Forum, if you can't voice an opinion here then where am I supposed to take it? Obviously not here. Open-minded discussion in frowned upon and you (this board) with the exception of a couple, prefer to live inside your box and not look at others perspective that might be a little different than your own.
PCola, It was a pleasure ing this board with you to prove my point. I wish you all the best and happy motoring.
PureStang, even though initially we may not have met eye to eye I appreciate the fact that you read what I had to say and made a discussion out of my redundant idiocy. You are able to see things in a different light and I hope you continue to spread the good word of friendly mustang owners. Thank You.
r3dn3ck, Glad you enjoyed the prior comments, thank you for showing some kind of interest in who I was or what kind of car I had.
StormsGT, I'm going to assume that that was a John Kerry attempt at a joke and not a threat. Thanks for the compliment and have a nice day.
Greg@sn95, Get over yourself. Incase you haven't noticed, my car is NOT for sale in the classifieds nor did I plan on re-listing it after the original post was deleted. IF it was for sale for $500 to your door, I'm sure it wouldn’t be for sale for long regardless of whether you bought it or someone else! And no, I have know idea why you wouldn’t want a 2004 Mustang GT w/mods, perfect interior and body for $500 other than, you may not have the $500 to buy it. Props though for flamming me BEFORE the moderators stepped in, I'm only sorry I wasn't able to respond sooner.
Icefreezen, without dumbshits like me, you wouldn't look like such a hard a$$ e-warrior It's character like you that give ENTIRE BOARDS a bad rap. Closed minded follower.
Badfish, Seems like you can enjoy the lighter side of things and take life as a grain of salt. Wish I would have wanted to hang around longer to get to know you. Sweet lookin ride by the way.
Spike Africa, That’s REAL good customer service relations. Do you purposely try to keep people from posting here? I understand that it’s probably just me that you don't want, But your judging me from 2 threads which may have been a little on the extreme side, but you don't have the slightest idea of who I really am. Good day sir. EDIT: in regards to your recent edit of a post, REAL grown up and cute... I think you should come out of the closet. Enough with the gay tendencies you have. Has anyone else ever noticed that you have a subconscious fascination with gays and gay jokes?! For the love of god, GROW UP.
**Dropping me to a post count of 1... THAT would have been funny**
MattJ, Easy to see how you got 8000+ posts
Venom, The ban as I said earlier was unnecessary, are you or mustangboards.com afraid of something? Since when did friendly banter and exchanging of ideas become a reason to close a thread and ban a long standing member? Prior to my banning I have been registered and frequenting this website since December of 2004. Where is my cookie? A ban for whining you say? If it had been whining then it probably would not have been a thought out thread with replies to all who cared to entertain my ideas and rhetoric. And YES, their are other things I enjoy and I don't make it a habit to be on the internet as much as I was, but it was raining and cold on a Sunday.
One last comment, even though MustangBoards.com may or may not be directly linked to AmericanMuscle.com, with the comments I have received and the way I have been treated here I will spread the word of this business and its attention or lack of, to its members/customers.

atleast you got your point acros slvr04gt
If this were a forum that really cared about the classifieds section your point would have been more widely accepted. Even with my 1700+ posts, if someone is going to buy something it is buyer beware, you dont know me, yeah I am putting my 'cyber self' credibility on the line... but if I were crazy and REALLY wanted to rip someone off that bad? nothing could stop me. Basically, 0 posts, 50 posts, 5000 posts, its always buyer beware. 50 posts doesnt make you a saint.

yea i dont think anyone should be banned jsut for complaining about something. yea its annoying but still, a lot of posts on here are people complaining about their problems. idk i dont think he should be banned for just doing that, its nothing serious.
#6
This is the best post of the year. And i am the one who closed your gay thread. Yes i said gay. Just remember though its only the internet. Im sure you have freinds in the real world you can go complain to aswell.
Good day and cheerio.
Good day and cheerio.

dude you completely missed the point of what I said...
All you accomplished by this thread is to have further proven your lack of inteligence...
Mods are here for a reason... You are that reason...
You do not own this forum... You don't have the right to be here...
The rules here are set by the owner/s... It belongs to them... you don't like the rules then don't post... The owner lets anyone join and has the right to ban whoever he pleases and let the mods do the same...
And have ya ever heard of EBAY? Why don't you sell there? moron

At the time, the rule was created to keep spammers out from hitting our forums with multiple posts to push their own business forward. Normally these spammers would just hit the entire classifieds section and post up whatever they felt like selling.
The rule was created, at the time, to not give away free ad space on the forum. The company paid for the forum, and therefore, discouraged such posts. If they wanted to push their product from their business they needed to actually donate to the forum to become an Authorized Vendor.
Since then, I have left AM, and the forum has changed hands in business. It is no longer owned by AM, but instead by a separate company that will end up tweaking the forum to be based for traffic and ad revenue. In the end, the rule will stand, even if it isn't listed in the actual Classified rules. It still comes down to free ad-posting. It's something that is frowned upon HIGHLY!
The rule was posted to give a reason why people's posts were deleted. I will consider changing or removing the rule depending on how my other mods and admins feel about it since things are changing. As of right now, you do have 70 posts and you are fine to post under the current rule, but please don't be a total ******* about the rule and why its there and so forth. Personally I don't like your semi-Holier than Thou attitude, but to each his own.
I don't know how long your ban is for, but you should just wait it out instead of trying to start **** with mods and admins on this board. Just my .02

some dude that's been a member for days but never posts, griped in smack about the 50 posts-before-selling-in-classifieds rule.
He couldn't see the mods side, mods couldn't understand his angst, everyone jumped on his azz about it, he got notably pissed, someone ban.T him for whining.
The ban was senseless IMHO... a simple admonishment from the mods to accept the rule and move on with another topic would have probably done but I don't make the rules.
Cliffs notes for the cliffs notes: No griping about the rules. It leads to no good.

na thats messed up. it would have made a better, less dramatic point if he was jsut told no, like he was, then it was left alone. the banning caused more drama. its like if someone wants to make a point around here their just gona get banned, just for sounding stupid if their wrong about it.
#22
Just to clarify a couple things, I didn't mean to shake things up quite the way that I did, until BOTH my threads were lock and therefore any avenue for idea exchange closed. I was not contesting the principle behind the rule just trying to suggest that modification might be in order. As far as being "whiney", "crying" or being a "puss" I don't see how any of that has anything to do with the original post . Just a free post for you kids I guess. Like I said, it was not intended to be a "complaint" just trying to bring a point to the powers that be attention.
My prior login SLVR04GT puts me as being a registered member of the board since December of 2005.
Jack, Cute kid, I can see the resemblance
If being an *** is what got me banned, How are YOU NOT being an *** by jumping on my thread and calling me a puss?
Now, GREG, I guess I did miss your point, I read it and responded to what I read. If you would care to enlighten me and dumb it down a bit for me. As far as proving MY "Intelligence" well, you let your spelling and grammar do THAT for you!
Thanks again.

yah, honestly i think you came across as a bit of a whiner, but i dont see any reason for a banning.
I'd express a bit more of my views on that, but then i probably WOULD get banned.
#24
So let me get this straight, you got your panties up in a wad because the mod staff won't let you put your car up for sale because you fail to follow the rules required to put up your car for sale. You then whine about why said rule is BS in your book and you start calling mods power hungry or something similar to that i'm not sure. I don't understand you at all. Follow the rules, plain and simple....starting postwhoring threads will also lead to no good...

First, several members explained to him why that rule was there and after all that he was not satisfied. He wanted to prove to himself how stupid that rule was and in doing got banned. Im sure all of you believe in free speech but common sense tells you not to yell fire in a crowed theater just like common sense tells you not to buy something from someone who has 1 post. Not everyone has common sense so we have to take steps to help protect members but not impede the process with alot of red tape.
I dont understand why people are so rude on the internet maybe its due to the fact that you hide behind a keyboard. Either way this forum is not a free for all, a blog or your home. There are rules as well as other members that post here so if you dont like it then you are welcomed to browse other forums and compare which you like better. I would suggest that you stop creating new names and continue with this issue as there is nothing to discuss. Your post count will be set at 0 when your ban is over and other screen names deleted. If you cant live 7 days without posting here then you should reevaluate how much time you dedicate online.

Bottom line.. The guy made a valid point, laid it out on the table, and some of the mod's blushed a little and decided to ban him..
Like I already said, he DEFINITELY could have gone on about it in a better way, but what is the difference between him pointing something out and everyone bashing Slither endlessly?. Should we all be banned?
This is exactly the reason why there are only a few of us that still post here on a regular basis.. "Mighty Mods." Now, don't get me wrong, you guys do a great job and devote alot of YOUR own personal time to keeping an eye on these boards, but banning someone for 'whining.' Please..

...WoW... I do not mean this in an arguing sense, but what is the point? The guy has been a member since Dec '04. So what if he isnt a 'post *****' like the rest of us?
