Please, I also need some explanations from the Administrator

Recommended Posts

I just received an email, signatured by the Administrator of the forum, in which he informes me that I am in probation for the next 6 months, because I take part in political discussions.... <_>

 

I "copy/paste" this email here, as I exactly received it:

 

Dear Dimitris,

 

To be honest, I'm fed up... <_>

 

Forum rule: Having fun is good, we like fun. Please keep it positive

and polite. We do not censor opinions or ideas on our forums but we do

take action against posts and/or topics that could cause unrest in the

community beyond a civil and polite disagreement. Political discussions

are not allowed. There are plenty political forums on the web .

 

You're all on probation for the next 6 months. If there is any abuse of

above forum rule, I'm pulling the plug on the site. I have plenty of

FUN stuff I could do be doing!

This is not an idle threat.

 

Reg,

Jaap Veldhorst

administrator

 

 

Please, I would like some explanations, because I don't understand a single thing...

 

 

Thank you

 

Dimitris

Like everyone else I got the message. I'll take it at face value, knowing that I'm not part of the problem.

 

That makes it much simpler to be part of the solution.

 

Jaap....thanks for your hard work and efforts that keep this forum going. Please continue to do so.

 

Speaking for myself, no further explanation is necessary or expected.

Oh it is a beauty!!

 

Quoted in the first post.

 

It arrived with the title.

 

Probation.

 

Nige. <_>

 

Wow, I recieved the same post. I have not posted for quite some time. I think the last time I did was last August. I have never and never will be part of political or personal exchanges. This is a site for the discussion on Moto Guzzi related topics and I hope it continues to be so. What ever it is that is going on I hope it gets resolved but I do know that I am not part of what ever it is. I have seen this crap get started on other lists and it indeed does get old fast. Jaap you have done a very good thing with this site and I do hope you dont let the jerks win out.

I am in favour of keeping things civil and controlled....

 

I just do not agree with the method recently employed!!

 

Nige. :glare:

 

Fair enough, but let it go mate. You've seen the job Jaap's done on creating & running this site, he doesn't often mess up. So this was a cock-up, but maybe it'll make someone sit up & see he means it. Maybe you haven't noticed some of the gratuitous personal name calling & bitching that's been happening here....we'd all be better off w/o that, but we wouldn't be better off w/o this site. KB :sun:
