Controversy - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

savageamusement · 06-23-2006, 04:33 AM

There has been a bit of controversy lately-
Some that has led to arguing
Some that has led to some changes on the board, or members status.

Let me state this clearly-
Should anyone have any issues with another member, that can not be solved peacefully or in the very least come to a compromise, please contact a moderator of that forum- or of course the owner.
However, should you not be directly involved and have questions, please send them privately to a staff member to discuss such concerns or questions-
Instead of putting them into a thread, to be addressed by the group-as that is usualyl a good way to get rumors started, and possible confusion and controversy started.

There are a lot of different personalities on this forum in particular-
And with the aspect of trading, personal feelings are shared- which leads to more involvement then some other forums have.
And that involvement can often times lead to some passionate responses and expecations of fellow members.

And at the same time as accepting that- and trying to be leniant towards those matters the fact is- things do often times go farther then they need to- with some very insulting things being said- and arguements lasting far longer than they need to, with very little resolution in the end.
The ringing theory is by being a community, it is my hope that users unite.
Unite in their hobby, unite in helping protect against scammers.
Unite in helping others build, add, or learn as they accumulate.

And while you may not all like EVERYONE
I hope you can find it possible to respect everyone
And when that fails, realize the board is large and there is room for everyone.

For any outstanding complaints or suggestions-
Confusion or questions

You can contact me at SavageAmusement@comcast.net

or the owner at any time to discuss these issues.

But I would love to see the unity that was expressed in such heated discussions lately, used towards each other in more beneficial ways.

This is the last thing I'm going to say on this matter. Savage, I respect you & think you try very hard to be fair. Regarding the recent fiasco, involving another moderator (not of this section), I did email the owner privately (TJ) and never received answers to the reasonable (and fair questions) I asked, either privately or here on the board. The responses I received from him were simply smoke & mirrors. So be it.

I learn a lot from this board and use it in the politics board-lol

As said, it takes two to argue
In this case from two different forums.

Regardless the fires are embers, lets not add to much oxygen.

Savage needs a Beer anyone buying?

I'm old school, how about a pitcher of kool-aid and 2 slices of pizza?. First date, I don't go for big bucks.

Why's that? With me whispering sweet nothings, Savage won't have time to eat. My wife reads this and I'm on the coach for a month.

Harvey who is starting to shake already

I did answer your questions. You asked me why the Moderator thread was pulled. I told you Kim pulled the thread and that you would need to ask her. Sorry if you thought my answers were not satisfactory, but I found your e-mails rude and condescending. You called Brian the worst moderator you had ever seen, and I asked you if you had actually ever visited any of the boards he moderates. You said no and you didn't need to see them.

I'm glad that you are such an expert and that you've been on a message boards since 1982, but I don't need you to judge me or question how the boards are run. You should stop sticking your nose where it doesn't belong.
