Every member on this site has the right to talk about vettes and give their opinions, even if you don't agree...
and you can probably kiss your *** goodbye for being an ***

When you get back from exile, next time just send the mod who locked your thread a Private Message and ask why. These guys are reasonable folks, they'll tell what's what and you don't even have to insult them.

SORRY, SORRY, SORRY.... I was just a little "PO" because I had a chance to drive an awesome machine and wanted to share to everyone... I have always liked to hear other opinions on our vettes, so like everyone else, I hated mine being cut off. This site is great, because of our moderaters, so i was out of line... If I offended anyone, sorry... Hope everyone understands my frustration... I am going to bed now, maybe tommarow will be better...

He's right. The mods here are very reasonable and if you ask, they will explain. They're good peeps

I remember the day I posted about the difference between C5 and C4 tire sizes. Mean Green promptly sent my post to the C4 forum. When I IMed him as to why, he ignored me. Some moderators do tend to take things a bit too far - kinda like the condo home owner's association watchdog who nails you for leaving your garage door open for more than 15 minutes........

True, but their right... I just had to laugh when one of the guys "Prosicutor" told me I had no rights, Here is a lawyer on the forum telling me I have no rights... Kind of funny coming from a lawyer.. but he was right. We are here only because of the sponsored ads on the left and the moderaters do have a job to do....Life is good when you are behind the wheel of a nice vette....

Hi iridelow -

Always - ALWAYS - take a deep breath and step back and re-read before posting when you are mad.

That has (almost) always kept me out of trouble.

best regards -

He has the right to state his opinion. But calling out a mod or anyone for that matter was not the right way of doing things. PM grumpy and tell him about your issue and hopefully he will respond. But I think it's to late for negotiations now.....
