so, Oabama takes over agasin...from "whats PY" to poiltical ...lol...well, PY is in itself that "political", just found out this morning that I`m suspended from PY.... here`s the reason..:

You have been banned for the following reason: publicly disrespecting moderator in CH Date the ban will be lifted: 04-26-2011, 09:00 PM
only thing I can think of is that there was a thread in the CH about voting if Gach was to be let back in the "hobby"....votes were 'publicly displayed...Blackcat (mod) removed it...in another thread they asked if you thought an "unmoderated forum" (as it states in the CH , its unmoderated) should be moderated...I said "no" thats publicly disrespecting a moderator???
well, now my respect for PY has sunk really low.
What I think of PY this morning??? a LOT less than I did a few days ago......

LOL, thats true, but I dont work like that....just think a "imo no" as a reply to "should an unmoderated forum be moderated"? should not get under someones skin no matter how thin it is... afterall , here is the rule for the CH as stated before you enter it.

THE CLUBHOUSE This is a private password protected unmoderated forum. Members say what they feel and don't hold back.

after reading this, would anyone think you could be banned for saying what I did? anyway, that tells you some.
Yes, it's called Middle School Writing/Grammar class.

In middle school, spelling and grammar just didn't seem important...
My kids today would agree with that statement. That's what the evil eye and smack across the back of the hands is for...

Bjorn, it sounds like somebody has been holding a grudge against you and decided to act upon it. I don't see anything wrong with what you said.
Bronze Bird, spelling and grammar are the last things on the minds of educators. Down here all the care about is the FCAT. If it isn't on it, it isn't important. Grammar and spelling are on it, but it's a multiple guess test and the questions are very basic.
Bjorn, was watch'n that thread. BC has over stepped his/her bounds many times. And is very touchy. Rumer has it "its" a he/she, or she/he. Had surgery. Must be related to Chris. Only reason he puts up with it? Used to be able to say it like it is there. Not any more. May hurt some ones feelings. Bunch on 4 yr olds over there too. Probly get banned when he/she learns about this post.

Maybe you`re right, this Black-Cat-Woman and I never really got along, but not the opposite either...but who knows...heres a list of people that got the axe...

page 1 Bigunde Bjorn Pontiac Dude Bob Rutledge MZBK21 brucewilkie Then on page 2 242177P is suspended -AFTER- correcting CCass's spelling .......
but all of them were "involved" , all i said , in my opinion No...for moderating in an unmoderated forum
well, he is no longer there...he got banned long ago ....spellcheck aka Misus or Scott M....always spellchecked everybody...but was a big racist and finally got the boot (again) ,after being banned once...
anyone here remember Ron? aka Chevybird, Ponchobird , Victor Hugo and a few other names? we banned him, he went to PY and eventually got banned there too...but for actually being bad....what I said , I cannot fathom being bad by any means....to be suspended for...probably were looking for a reason to ban me because I talk about the non existing Global Warming ,which upsets a few...LOL

I certainly recall ChevyBird...and you sir are no ChevyBird. LOL!!!
There's another guy there that corrects grammar and spelling...and is very insulting about the way he does it. Is it "Murf's Dad"? ...can't remember.
I'm a hobbyist. Not a professional. Don't be hatin'!
WOW! Leave for a couple days and look what happens!!!
PY has "issues", no doubt. The CH is one place only the "brave" should "tread". If Misus got banned, there's "hope". He is one sick puppy.
It filters into other aspects, too. Some have been banned for disagreeing with one of the Hand's posts. Certain factions shamelessly plug their products and dispute ANYTHING that says something else MIGHT be a better choice. I've been accused of many things there. Most understand, though. I just tell it like I see it. When it comes to engines, Pontiacs in particular, unless I say it's an opinion, you can take it to the bank!
They may get straightened out. But, like so many other things in the world, once an entity perceives itself as "superior" or "untouchable", there's little hope for it to improve.
I really hope you guys get over your paranoia where Obama is concerned, and re-assign it where it could do some "good", towards the ENTIRE government, regardless of "party". Re-elect NOBODY!!!
a friend just sent me this, after he had heard of the "ban the guys who dont want mods moderating the unmoderated forum" I edited out his name to "protect the innocent"...lol

Heres what I just posted to that thread in the CH adout the unmoderated forum.
You might want to watch and see if the whole post is deleted.
BTW I was able to log in .... They hadnt removed me afterall so another dishonesty.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To CCass . I understand you are the guy who owns and controls the PY forum. . Whoopty Doooo!! If so I want my membership removed! . DO YOU UNDERSTAND - - R E M O V E D . I have been < ******* > . On Mar 6th b-man "warned' me (FOR THE 1st TIME INCIDENTALLY) and lied about it being the SECOND time. as well as lying about my posting 'a racial slur'. . I told b-man to take me out then and he didnt do so. I have also been told that Holmberg contacted you and you ignored both the complaint AND my instruction to remove me. So Im telling you now - directly. . After watching the recent spate of nonsence in this thread alone. I dont want anything more to do with PY!!! . You cant even stand to have someone make a comment about spelling? What a 'possie'. . Be assured that I have no intention of trying to sneak back into PY using another name. Moderators may not be honorable but I am.
got a reply by Ccass after I asked "why"? and here is his reply , with my reply abv it.....funny that I`m banned from the forum ,yet he copies me a link to read on it, and I cant read it since I cant get in as I`m banned...LOL
Quote:
Chris, I appreciate the explanation ,even though I`m banned from looking at what you copied for me to read....so I cannot read that ,nor can I read your new policy......plus I never read that a moderator should be suspended...all I know is that I said “ imo no” where it was asked if an un moderated forum should be moderated.....of course I know forums aren’t democracies...I moderate on FGF myself....and we banned one person from there, one that you guys later banned from PY too... When you say : Your participation was minimal and you were somewhat a casualty of what transpired the last two days but it's only for 2 weeks Its like I`m innocent but guilty by association....being in the same thread?
But then you say : with Baker's topic polling the membership about whether a moderator should be suspended and the topic you participated in
But these guys were suspended I hear from other members, and Baker isn’t even in that group...makes no sense 242177P Bigunde Bjorn Pontiac Dude Bob Rutledge MZBK21 brucewilkie I will take “one for the team", but it will be a long time before I return , if ever..... I`m sure you`ll understand... It was nice as long as it lasted.....met a lot of nice people , made lots of good friends.....
Bjorn ++++++++++++++ Bjorn, Your post on this page http://forums.performanceyears.com/forums/showthread.php?t=663230. Normally this would be considered a completely harmless post but with Baker's topic polling the membership about whether a moderator should be suspended and the topic you participated in, it was absolutely necessary to remind everyone that the CH is not a democracy. So everyone that bandwagon'd the ridiculous notion that those that made the rules can't change their own rules, got suspended for 2 weeks. Just read my post and read the new CH etiquette. It's very clear. Overall your contributions are very much appreciated and I know you are a well respected member. Your participation was minimal and you were somewhat a casualty of what transpired the last two days but it's only for 2 weeks. I didn't feel it fair to pick and choose who 'deserved' to be suspended. So I suspended everyone who addressed the moderator issue in a negative manner. I hope you understand and can take one for the team.
so, in case you`re associated with complainers you`ll get suspended.....not like " innocent until proven guilty", not even a check ,asking....no chance of defending yourself....just a casualty...but ,"its only for 2 weeks".... hmmm, like an innocent " criminal" feels better because he was innocent ,but only sent to prison for 2 years....LOL
I dont buy it. For you who used to see me on PY, you`ll know why you wont in the future
Good thing I've avoided that site in the past. I regularly bash Bjorn on this site, but at least he knows I'm always kidding!

I joined the PY forum some time ago. Really can't find much to comment about. It is nothing like this site. I am happy here and will just go there to read up on tech info. Nice having different opinions on a subject but PY forums seem to be matter of fact opinion and my opinion seems unwelcome. So I post nothing there. Joe
WOW, Ccass is handing out suspensions like penny candy.
LOL, yes, but he still doesnt even know what he is doing... here:

I can't believe I havn't been banned as I get my digs in all the time about PY never having anything in stock and I always go out of my way to plug Ames every chance I get!!!
A very good friend of mine here in FL who owns a 67 GTO knows Chris personally. This friend of mine is not a computer guy so I am always telling him stuff that goes on on the PY site. He is to the point now where he will no longer buy from them either. In fact, this friend of mine is doing a full blown frame off on his 67 GTO this fall and was going to buy everything from PY. Now, it's all coming from Ames. So that is how I get my satisfaction regarding PY!
what does ignorant mean?? do I need to look it up? LOL
It just means you are from Sweeden. Don't worry about it.
