Remember the Good Ole Days?

[blsnelling]

You are too valuable to ban LOL. Plus we need an admin to unban and since that darn @stihl sawing retired that only leaves Darin and Jen.

Also you can often lose post/like count in a ban/urban situation. Since you are in the top 5 that would wreck your mojo.

Lol. I tried

As a mod I'm curious what actually happens on the other end when someone gets banned. In my career I've only banned spammers, a few BA's, and that guy who tried to say Mastermind and Stumpy were posers. (Mrs A does all of the banning of problem causing "regular" members.) Perhaps we ban one of you eager volunteers and you send us a screen shot?

Yeah but how many members have you put on 'discourage'?

I remember when the 361 was king. What was the king saw on here before the 361?
Then it was the 346xp.
Not sure what it is now.

Mods don't have that ability. Only admin.

On my forum I've made every member a global mod... Everyone is free to play out their control fantasies at will.

 

[TonyK]

Don't people usually have to pay extra for the control fantasies?

I moderated elsewhere for 7 years. May I quote General Sherman.

“I will not accept if nominated and will not serve if elected.”

The only times I was banned was when I posted inapropriate stuff or came in the back door with another username.
Judge Judy always comes to the rescue I've found.
I only reported one member once about ten years ago. Most of the time I never say ****, even if I have a mouthful. Lol

Nothing wrong with remembering the good ole times ; it puts a smile on a man's face ! Funny how we always remember the good things, not the bad things.
This site was a real hoot a few years back ....there was not a day going by for me without logging in a few times to AS. I really miss Lakeside53 and Thall, but many others as well. Coveredinsap, that notorrious 'nostihlteam' raskal really stirred up things good....haha.

But I am glad the site is doing well. Keep up the good work.

After all these years and tinkering on saws, I still didn't have the pleasure of running a modded saw. It's about time to get one before I am too old holding one, LOL.

Gypo, you led a huge army here when you came. Transformed this site from a sleepy, limp wristed arborist
forum, into a bustling, brawling biker bar of a forum, and the membership skyrocketed!! Those were the "Good Ole Days" at this site!!!

I do recall at one time or another logging on and all of bsnellings posts had become stickies.

Should we start a thread titled"road trip to ban camp" and see who all wants to come for the ride? I feal left out, never have had the experience.

I'm banned from the political forum, some get easily shaken by the truth.
