You just think you are such a "know it all" and here you are bitching...Quote:

That is why we have moderators that we overwork. Actually I would like to see all the over 18 forum members on a no holds barred forum.
Sorry Roamy I disagree. We are allowed a lot more freedom on Chit Chat than on the other forums here but there does have to be some control, especially as to language. I know I have pushed the envelope at times particularly with Eki and Wade, who seems to have disappeared.
Without controls I think things would get totally out of hand. I know I have stopped to think what I was about to say was beyond the pale at times.
So far I have usually stopped and I haven't gone past the line for a couple of years. I suspect I have been close though.
What we are allowed to say here in Chit Chat would resulit in bans in the sections devoted to actual motorsport competition.
If a mod ever took seriously what some of us say to each other in the Joke thread we would be gone for life!!!!!!!!!!! :D
Sounds Dull......I'll pass.Quote:

I agree some of us should chill out. I post a little less often now than I did, and I am veering away from a lot of the political forum posts on Chit Chat mainly because I know what a few are going to say, I know what I will say, and it will go on for about 150 messages over 15 pages. It was getting old....
The really hilarious part? I suspect outside of politics, I would likely get along like a house on fire with Eki on a lot of other subjects, but here, I get into his grill and he mine.
So I must admit, I have cut back and avoided...but I still will be passionate and opinionated on the racing forums I head to, on THAT, I have no reason to back down.
That's the reason I'm not even opening a lot of threads in CC, It's gotten boring even before the first reply to the opening post.Quote:
