    They are missed, by many. It's too bad the way things happened.

    The Facts ...

    Just the FACTS …..

    Being inconsiderate and disrespectful to the simple request of ... please stop HIJACKING an important thread.

    Threads will always be Hijacked and the topic may end up going on to another avenue, yet we try to bring the thread back to the OP's topic.

    For months (several times) it was politely requested to NOT hijack the Rally thread (It continued to be ignored). This ONE thread is what we use to gauge and prepare for the Rally and allows new members to read about the event. New members having to go through pages of non-rally comments to find the information is not what the thread was for.

    Due to the continuous non-rally comments and IGNORED requests, I personally created the "Love Fest" thread and directed those individuals to that thread back in APRIL and temporarily locked the Rally thread hoping that the non-sense would stop and requested those interested on attending the Rally to just send me a PM since they now could not respond stating that they would be attending ---> http://hondaf6b.com/showthread.php?8...ight=love+fest

    Once I felt that the Rally thread would be left alone, it was unlocked. Well you guessed it, certain individuals returned to the thread and continued their non-sense. Once again, I politely hinted and requested that they stop Hijacking the thread. Shooter took it upon himself of starting a new thread expressing his displeasure and mocking my multiple requests. I finally expressed my frustration, I try to do what is best for the forum however we will never be able to please everyone.

    Shooter knew exactly what he was purposely doing and continued to push the limits. After my response to his thread he decided to stop posting, grabbed his ball and went home instead of acknowledging or apologizing for the un-necessary aggravation. Some members followed his foot steps, others took his side and blamed Phantom for being the one at fault for the situation. You can only sugar coat a simple request for so long.

    It's a shame, Bryan and I had lots in common.
    I try to help EVERYONE whenever I can wherever I can with the LIMITED time that I have in between my family and business. This forum requires a bit of time to manage, fulfill requests and run behind the scenes by the Moderators, webmaster and myself. It sometimes becomes apparent that a few don't appreciate what we do nor respect the time and resources that we dedicate so that many can enjoy this forum.

    The forum has rules and is run in a manner that is best for everyone, some will never agree with our decisions and that's just part of life.

    The Rally will be a very nice venue for those that attend, I have always met great people at the event.
    Now you know the rest of the story.



    Successful people build each other up. They motivate, inspire and push each other. Unsuccessful people just hate, blame and complain.

    Thank you. Your efforts for the Forum and the Rally are appreciated, and I look forward to seeing you (and others) again at this year's rally.

    Me, too.

    In my RC Airplane days, autos and trucks and different motorbike forums, I have noticed that there is always going to be a disgruntled member or two--and many times they may have a point. But the fact is we are allowed to play in another person's sandbox and we are guests at their expense and enjoy the "free insight, tech info, and association" (good and bad ) while somebody else pays the bills to keep the lights on. The rules at different forums vary greatly--and yes, I have gotten my share of PMs from mods as not everybody appreciates my sense of humor. And yes it is true that I will challenge the reasoning of some, not because I disagree but because I want to know WHY they think that way. However, this tactic is not always welcomed and has gotten me a nice warning or ten.

    In my old age I try to be less confrontational. It is very easy to talk a big game with a keyboard and no eye contact.

    Tony, we never met. I respect what you said here. As far as the bold statement, I thought it was highly out of character, ( I say that not knowing you ), to say what you did, with all the name calling language you used. That's what ticked me off more than anything, and if you look at my response, I said it was uncalled for. The rest is history and I stood behind my friend.

    Wayne, those that know me know that I am a no non-sense, very patient, tolerant and a generous person.

    You are correct, I don't normally respond in that manner. Unfortunately it may be the response that someone else needs to hear and comprehends. Hence my statement at the end of my response … this thread will be deleted shortly.

    Respecting each others abilities, contributions, time and efforts is not asking much ...

    This forum belongs to everyone … Let's just move on, I don't have the time to waste on this any more.

    As I mentioned to several people, Shooter and Teach are more then welcomed to attend the Rally, they are part of the family and would never be turned away. We are adults, at times you have to agree to disagree and move on.

    Ah , but Tony you lie. I did apologize to the members and it was not done on the rally thread. It was a new thread that I started. Also the post that pissed you off was not on the rally thread. Put it back up. No you won't do that. I was OK with your shyt till you lied about it. I quit posting on your precious rally thread when you got mad. It was important that the thread stay pure. By gosh we have to have space to sell those T-Shirts. So for all the board , I did issue an apology but it was deleted along with the uncalled for reaction by Tony.
