Here is another perfect example:
https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/104...k-today-bored/
Read the last few posts. All of which I had NOTHING to do with... (I have a screenshot in case it gets deleted after this reply is read, let me know)
So,
Luder, you have now been added to the list of power-tripping mods who start trouble in a thread and then immediately lock it when someone responds with something you don't like or don't agree with. It must suck for people to have no other power over anything or anyone in life to be so low as to try and be a "Boss" online, for free! Too bad I didn't get to respond to your ignorant and OPINIONated post and "enlighten" you. I may PM you the "correct" response to your replies about MY car. Another mod FTL
.
And before anyone says I'm "bashing" a mod, as bad as I would LOVE to, all I'm doing is pointing out fact. This is seriously out of hand..

The more I reflect on this the less I believe this is a 'one section' problem and more a general selection process of the moderators.
I have no idea how some of these people are selected, reviewed and monitored. I suspect in large part they aren't.
Maybe mod's shouldn't step in for the off-topic or debating stuff unless a complaint is filed. Thoughts?

Have to agree Rob. The responses of Luder are the same as I've encountered with another mod which begins with G and ends in Y. Almost as if as soon as a valid counter point is made, a threat is sent in reply.

WTF? That aggravated me more than he/she closing the thread for no reason.. And according to some people early in this thread, we were singling out and flaming "good" moderators unjustly...

Love the car and most of the people I've met because of it and feel a bond with this community. Sorry for trying to say it would help resolve things by being nice to each other. Keep flaming mods and admins and see where that takes the community.

Thanks.
I was pretty much done with it anyway after posting pics but decided to respond when the comments got "off topic". Lol. It's all good..

I agree about the niceness. No one is flaming admins, only certain mods who deserve it entirely. There are other mods on this board that are good at what they do and genuinely treat others respectfully, regardless of the situation, and for that we applaud them. Something should be done about it. Will something be done about it? Doubtful. But we can hope anyway.
