Many of us on this site have been here for along time and a lot of the reason for that is the fun/bs threads that are strictly for entertainment value. That said I do agree that many info threads get screwed by people just being smarts ass' or d*** heads. I myself don't interfere with anything outside of threads I know are there for that purpose.
I myself have started threads that's are instantly taken off track that I actually wanted info. In these threads I get it. But not sure you can put that on the mod staff.
a mod can only do what they can do. They're not on here 24 hours a day monitoring and can't possibly weed out every bad egg and every bs post. Also not easy to keep everyone happy. They Moderate a post and next thing you know people are jumping down their throats for it.
Rather than questioning the mods maybe just ignore the threads/peeps that piss you off. If you see they are the last one to post maybe just move on.
Also in this topic I have met most of the guys on here that some would consider the bad apples. And have had beer with more than a few of them. And once you read past their joking and douchebaggery these are some of the best people you'll meet. Always willing to help you out, meet for a drink, let you join them for a ride in their areas and are actually a wealth of information.
The same goes for the mods. I have over the years had the pleasure of meeting almost every mod on this site. They all volunteer their time here, for all the events, and in many other ways both for snow and mud and for their prospective clubs ect. And all do this not expecting anything for it.
Maybe we need to stop complaining and just enjoy the site the way it is or go pay your way into another site that's is monit-----sorry policed "better"
I myself think there is a good balance here of what they allow us to get away with and what they moderate.
