i'm sure this will be closed again... but whatever, gotta say what needs to be said
Dear gawd man! what are you gonna go on another power trip on these boards too? we have a right to protest when things appear biased!
example, the thread Mike mentions in the "To laguy03" thread... it seems hardly fair that you lock Mike's topic, but keep Eric's topic open gimme a break!
THAT is totally uncalled for, it is a BLATANT personal attack which to my knowledge was one of the reasons Rob was banned, how is it you can get away with it???
when you have a reason for it, then you of all people should listen to these "complaints"... The "why was Rob banned topic" obviously showed that not everyone is pleased with the way things are going... So rather then close it because "you felt like it" or "i don't want to deal with it" maybe hearing what we have to say could change why we complain!
P.S. realize i have never resorted to any personal attacks, i have stated facts with quotes, and no curses... the only polite thing to do would be to nicely reply rather then dismiss this as yet "another complaint"

Josh was well within his rights. I disagree with some of the decision made. But most of them are fair and unbiased. It seems some members have certain problems with certain moderators and I personally am sick of hearing about it.

oh my god
Some of you seriously have problems
THIS IS A MESSAGE BOARD. What problems is there to discuss??
I have no problems
I just come here, post my s**t, read s**t, and then leave.
??? ???
And maybe Mike's topic was closed because it was some stupid crap? He's good at that.

I'll take the blame for this one since I posted that I didn't have a problem with this post. The reason is Mike's message was something only him and codenut could understand, but Edf85's topic was more or less about meeting a celebrity (Lefteye) that we often talk about on these boards. I do agree though that we should stray away from "To XMemberX" subject lines.

Is all of this non-stop complaining really necessary? You guys are acting really childish. If you have a complaint at least PM the moderators instead of making threads meant for bitching every single day.
Josh is right. No one has to post here if they don't want to. If I thought it was as awful around here as you guys act like it is, I'd have been long gone.
Who cares if Mike's topic was locked while Eric's stayed open. Look at the big picture. It really doesn't matter. They're insignificant topics and Matt did tell Eric that the convo should take place in a PM.
It seems to be the same few people complaining on a regular basis. And you say that you bitch so things will change, but why not offer constructive criticism of what you would like to see happen rather than a nonstop barrage of bitching.
Take a step back and don't get so riled up over these small non-issues.

I personally think alot of people are targeting Josh for no reason and I think his Breathe thread was a funny way to lighten up the mood in here.

None of these things are that big of a deal. what i want is simple.. i don't want these concerns as simply dismissed! If you set some ground rules, make them apply to EVERYBODY, not cutting corners for such and such, not saying just because me or Theo (atomicaloud) complain it's because we have a problem with someone or something... that's all!

I am not here to agrue with which topics should be locked. Seriously if there is so many problems with this board than why even bother signing in. Is it because you like drama?

They have nothing to do in their real life so they enjoy drama on random online message boards. It's the highlight of their late teenage years.

I will say that if Tony, Matt, or I locked atomicaloud's Toni Braxton topic yesterday instead of Josh, no one would have complained. If you read through the unlocked Toni topic, you will see why the locked one was locked. You will also see that many members involved in conversating in that thread agreed with Josh's decision. I don't understand why it ended up going into the "issues with boards" topic.

I admit I have had a few issues very few but they were all resolved and really nothing to stress about. I don't see why we all can't get along

Ben,
Why are you so frustrated by the boards? I don't get it... your reasons just don't make sense to me. you find Josh's "I hate this" or "I love this" replies in Nostalgia annoying, whcih you're allowed to think, but so what? Is it that big a deal? You complained about the Toni Braxton topic being locked even though a slew of people wanted it to be locked, and even though you weren't interested in the topic at all. You quote Josh's posts with the roll-eyes. It just seems that you have it in for him. And because of that we have to deal with topics like this everyday.... it's just a message board, it's not worth all this energy.

You however are just trying to start trouble and it is obvious i am not trying to start! but you are beginning to antagonize me... if you have no issues, i'll just say, post what you want to post that has importance and let this topic be... i'm not going into an angry tirade , or trying to bring you into a childish name calling game am i?

If I should be banned, you should as well. You are the one antagonizing me. All I did was try to make a point that it gets to be very tiring to see you try to create drama on the boards day after day

Yes, it's pretty obvious you have it in for Josh. I mean you quoted him three times in your initial post. It sounds like a personal issue that you may need to handle.
Just step back and ask yourself if these things are really that important.

It is my opinion that you started this thread knowing that it would cause some kind of drama yes. But I am sorry if I call you a name (which I don't think I did) I just think it is time to cool all the complaints
