I honsestly think there is no reason for these threads to be shut down, especially given the threats of physical violence goin on in that Rajab thread which is still going strong. There was a legit convo going on there, no need to shut it down. People know now not to be rude and insulting so let it be...? And why is R31SkylineChick still an administrator? I don't see why she should have any rights to admin what is now CalaisTurbo.com's forum alone.

Mate I am having this exact discussion with R31chick at the moment. I am negotiating so I hope it works out for the best - threads being unlocked that is. 8) Well, the Rajab post got nuked.

Personally, I don't understand why the 8's thread is still going, I have spoken to sin about it, and he said to let it go...... There is workshop bashing, and personal threats, both of which are not permitted on the board, and still the thread (and the threats) continue. :? I guess the reason the R31 threads keep getting shut down is, why bother to keep posting the same thing again and again? If a topic gets locked, it is for a reason, and therefor shouldn't be restarted.

Rajab thread seems to be unlocked now. UNLOCK MY R31 THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why not restart it if it is locked: A) By you who still has admin rights only by previous conditions, not because you should be moderating calaisturbo B) There's a legit discussion that people still want to have we will play nice now if it makes youse happy If people want to be heroes in the 8s thread so be it but there's some pretty serious threats being thrown around there... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Just to add to that.... there was also a lot of name calling and similar in the original R31 thread..... :roll: Quote: And why is R31SkylineChick still an administrator? I don't see why she should have any rights to admin what is now CalaisTurbo.com's forum alone. Probably 2 reasons for this... 1) I spend a fair bit of time in here reading through stuff 2) I'm responsible, and reasonably on the ball (for an old fogey) :P

I have moderator status, which was earned..... After all the other sections of this forum were removed, I was asked to stay on as a moderator. I'm not abusing power. If you have a problem with me, then PM me, stop wasting space with petty gripes. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I will probably get in trouble for this but here goes anyway.... To all the moderators, since you have let the Rajab 8's post go for so long with numerous threats and workshop bashing, you cant in all good conscience shut down any other post that contains such material that might offend people or flair up a bit and get out of hand because the precident has been set with the 8s thread. My 20c worth, and no I am not trying to **** stir. Just making a valid point. :?

i just dont see why u close topics which are about us laughing at people call us "morons" but u let the name calling go on at the r31 forum it just doesnt make sense to me

That's OK.... I'll be your scapegoat. For the information of everyone who is bagging me out about locking the R31 thread, it wasn't me who locked it. I did lock the second thread that was started, which is common practice. If a thread has been locked, then any future threads about the same subject are either locked or removed. In fact, it wouldn't suprise me if someone locks this before tomorrow morning. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

OLDGOLD causing again ehehe wots new, and by the way old gold that is a crappy avavtar u have now,a pic of some gold u wrote your name on.Thats a new low :? :x :x

Hows that pressure oil sender going sacha ?

mm yeah gonna put it back in soon,probably like yours just needed to be tightened Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

R31 Skyline... you said this in the 1st R31 thread.... "normally a thread like the one we have going over there would get locked if it was on this board (as per this one) The thread has been left open, because it's a bit of fun.... nobody is actually taking it seriously! (I hope!) " So if its just a bit of fun it should stay on this board... Obviously no outright threats or anything... but really that orig. R31 thread on the other board has gone way past just fun... so I think with in limits we should be able to discuss this topic aswell. Also... you cant blame us for claiming your biased... aren't you part of the thread on the R31 board???not saying you are in general but obviously in this case you can see how we all jump to the conclusion... So I gather it was master Sin who locked the topic... I guess we are all wondering why mate?? Anyway I'll go by what you guys decide.... cheers

I don't have a problem with you being a moderator, skylinechick, I just figured ur mod status was from the ozperformance thing and it hadnt been removed... it kinda seemed like u were closin them other threads just cos they were baggin r31s... im sure u have ur reasons like i said i have no problem with you, ur a good moderator, i just thought it was a bit rude to close the thread and sacha i only started a new thread cos i was unable to post in the other one as it was closed - obviously other people had something to say too. my avatar is the shiit what are u talkin bout slacker :roll: yeah i know its crap but im hardly bout to change it just cos u dont like it its only there for practical reasons which i cant be bothered explaining anyway its better than a picture of me did u get my pm btw? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I was just teasing about the VL drivers taking curry etc. I have actually joined the R31 forum in peace. Well peaceful now after I fired a few shots. R31 Skyline Chick, no hard feelings. You wont be my scapegoat anyways. 8) Everybody, have a really nice day ok. cheers, pete. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Like skyline chick said i too dont understand why the 8sec thread was kept open for so long.. It was purely *bull***** and alot on there was said that should not been seen on *our* forum.. Quote: And why is R31SkylineChick still an administrator? I don't see why she should have any rights to admin what is now CalaisTurbo.com's forum alone. Skyline chick has never from what i have seen abused her "power" of being a MODERATOR.. There is no need why she shouldnt be one either from what i see, she does what the "guidelines" of being a moderator say.. (snippets from the guidelines) Quote: The "****head Element" The idea behind the new boards is keep the ****head element to an absolute minimum. People who post stupid threads/abusive replies need to be kept under control and as soon as possible. It is your responsibility as a Moderator to look after your subforums to which you are assigned, and are encouraged to keep this to a minimum. Deleting threads Threads may be closed if they contain abusive text, or are not generally car related. Closing threads Threads may be closed if they contain abusive text, or are not generally car related. Not every moderator or admin are on the page 24-7... The 8sec thread went way out of control within hours, so perhaps it wasnt seen by some of us.. Skyline chick said she spoke to Sin about it, so how in anyway should she hold a guilty conscience.. From what i see she is usually the first to clean the forum up!! Perhaps we all need to sit back and think about why we have these forums.. As JetVL so nicely put in the 8sec thread... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

enough whinging. closed. open another topic and i will ban you :)
