boxy must set the record for being banned

no actualy I think i have ....... I'm on my about my 3rd or 4th user account and my orignal user account has been ban more times than you would care to listen to and ban me again for speaking out see if I care - I am allowed an opinion or is everone going to take the typical bogan option and ignore other people? This forum (I'm not pointing at anyone in particular here either its just the general consencious) has moderators that have more issues than that of the general users. Issues like;

1. abuse their powers.

This seems to happen on a regular occurance and this is the only forum i have ever seen this on too. Changing peoples posts to make imature jokes or make fun of people. This not only looks very unprofessional but imature too, i would think that the majority of people on here are in their 20s and i would think better from them. Yes the users do this too but the mods are meant to be setting an example, are they not?

2. double standards

It seems that whoring is an issue on this forum and some mods seem to dislike and other almost promote it and participate in it regulary. Seriously why have a wasteland if people can't chat? Its not like people still do the whole 50 million posts in a row thing anymore. If you want to stop whoring or chatting clamp down on the entire forum not just one section.

3. no processes

there appears to be no process for dealing with users or issues. Each mod seems to have their own way with dealing with issues. One mod moves a thread to one section because he doesn't want it somewhere then another mod moves it back because thats where it best fits in. One user gets ban and another gets put in the pit or what ever it is called. What is the go? do users get warnings?

I really believe that the moderators of this forum need to clean up their own acts (some of which need to act their age), get some constistency across the forum and realise its not the moderators that make the forum its the users. I'm not sure of the circustances of of boxheads banning but I'm sick of hearing people complain about SAU and the moderators on here. maybe we should start banning moderators on here :confused:

anyway thats my bit ....

pimpspec - I wasn't involved in any of your bans, but to get banned and come back that many times, you were obviously being a real problem. If you dont like it, don't abuse the PRIVELIGE of using these forums and dont come here. To have nothing better to do, than to go around posting absolute crap, pushing and pushing, getting banned, and then doing it again, is pretty sad.

neo - mate, please, read my posts. I answered your question already.

Some people think I'm a good bloke, but if I go onto PerformanceForums and act like a complete tool and disregard moderators warnings, I'll get banned. Oh but I'm a good bloke.... means nothing.

Guys you can just PM me with any questions.

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
