Default Are We turning in to vortex?

The new trend of thread locking is kind of odd to me, and thats the reason for some of the ridiculous posts latley, just to make fun of it and see how long before they get locked. I always liked posting here cuz people werent petty like they are on vortex, and if you keep locking peoples posts there going to keep making posts even more ridiculous than the last,and if you ban them they will make a new handle and do it even more, and if you ban their IP they will find a new forum like vwwhoretex that was made because this same thing happened on vortex. This is an online community, unless someone is personally threatening someone to an extent that is scary i dont think that arguements should be locked, especially in the extras. I mean who the hell do u think you are to say what is extra...if someone makes a stupid post they get stupid responses, and if people didnt want to respond they wouldnt...o well thats my 2 cents. And i think it is obsurd that the post about this was locked so no one could give their input and apparentley other moderators didnt know...so go ahead and lock this too i guess.

I will agree before they loc this post. Alot of locking going on.
Kind of kills the free speach issue. It seems like we need a moderator for the modorators

I think ALL of us need to take it easy for a bit and let Dave resolve this, to be quite honest. I don't know how this got out of hand, but I don't want VWF to turn into Vortex either.

I agree with both of you but you'll both have to admit that the pointless posts have been growing in numbers lately. Shit, they're not even funny most of the time.

This is something that is being addressed by the moderators as I post this. I'm not saying that we are going to have a fix for it tomorrow so I'm asking everyone to be patient and have some a little perspective here. The only difference between moderators and other members is that we've been around longer. We understand that that there is a free speech issue and we're working on setting guidelines on how to deal with this type of stuff uniformly.

Lets not forget that we're on all the same boat here.

And Ceazar, member to member, you should be one of the last people to play the freedom of speech card with all the wonderful bullshit that I've enjoyed you post.

Superior? I usually do agree with what Dakoda says, and the above was a joke regarding his ability to post stuff that offends people and have everyone who knows him laugh it off. You were supposed to laugh.

Don't let the door hit you on your ass. And I'll bet you "a while" is less than 24 hours.
Oh and the word is delete. Spell check is your friend.

I asked you to delete this because nothing good ever comes from threads like this. I told you that we are taking care of it and I asked you to trust that your voice has already been heard. But you decided to stay on your soap box. You know what, no you don't... you are clueless.

Love,
Raf

Oh my God! Tuner war won't be the same without your car at the VWF tent. Geez, gimme a hit of whatever you are smoking. You are just too smart for your own good.

Do you honestly think that anyone gives a shit about your personal opinion? Your car is awesome, I won't debate that. But Dave didnt ask for your car to be on display for your winning personality.

Did I hurt your feelings? Don't take this up with Davie. I'm the one egging you on. HAHA, damn kids love to dish it out but can't take it. I know my role around here and its 99% entertainment and to bust on people. We can all use the copy and paste keys when it comes to posting information.

Its okay sweet pea, I'll lay off for Dave's sake. But like I tried to tell you when I contacted you privately, posts like this rarely bring positive results.
