I think you are missing the point. A person/people were banned/suspended for PMing people and getting them to go to another specific RX8 website. No we have a Moderator offering to PM a person locations of different RX8 websites.

I once went to a certain 8 site, started by certain exmembers, with a certain name that is certainly similar to this site's. As soon as I pressed ENTER, there was a knock on my door, and I heard, "Open ziz door! Zhere vill be no surfing of zhe ozher zites!!!" Now I don't even go to Hotmail.

Ugh ... that has never, ever happened. There are just a couple loud mouth whiners whole love to propogate that rumor as a way of alienating people from this site ... and to theirs. If you just want a place to complain about me and the '****' Moderators here, go do it at rx8web.com. If you want to be a part of the only RX-8 forum with any real substance, and tech discussion, you're already there.

You have no clue about what really happened, so please stop acting as if you do. The only thing that was ever taken away were PM priviledges. And the only person ever banned during the ordeal was Razpewton for MANY MANY other reasons.

Whatever, they're going to keep bashing me at any given opportunity. Certain personality types will eat it up, while the majority realizes it just disgruntled people ranting to serve their own agenda.

You distort the truth then close or delete threads to promote YOUR agenda. WHAT many, many other reasons was I guilty of? I know quite a few other people who would debate your claim that I was the ONLY one banned here. YOU created an entire thread informing people that mentioning another site was considered SPAMMING, and people would be banned for it. I asked you to reference WHAT I had PMed anyone to warrant banning, but you never answered, then you deleted the thread. You're so full of ****.....why do you feel the need to drag my name into it in the first place?

BTW, I appologize to the members of this regional forum for responding here, but apparently Ryan feels I'm the only person that has an issue with him....

That's not true....NOBODY has EVER tried to alienate people from this site to RX8web.com. If you would do a search over there, you'd see that the only thing anyone has ever tried to do is encourage members to participate in BOTH sites, not any one exclusive. Your paranoia has you delusional again. You spinning yourself off as being victimized is entertaining, but totally inaccurate.

"Propogate rumors" geez, you're pathetic. I have invited you to explain to me in private what the hell you are talking about, but you won't respond....you have nothing to offer up.

Why don't we take this opportunity and lay our cards on the table? Let's discuss these issues in a mature and logical manner. Show all these people that you're capable of resolving conflicts instead of issuing punches, then standing behind your MODs as they fight your battles. You claim your objective is to unify the rotary community....

PROVE IT!

Let's get everything out in the open and really see what are the sources of the various issues that have created heartburn between certain members of the RX8 forums and some of the admins here. Are you man enough to resolve this conflict once and for all?

We can discuss these issues way down here in the regional forum, in a thread created for that exclusive purpose. You're very quick to single folks out and blame anyone other than yourself....how are you at "stepping up to the plate?" I'm sure most of your MODs would welcome ANY activity designed to promote mutual concessions and peace.

Let's see what YOU are really willing to do for the rotary communities....

I've been doing this for a long long time, I've seen a lot of persistent whiners. But I've never seen anyone with near the persistence as you Razpewton. You are without a doubt the biggest forum whiner I've ever seen. All the guys that started nopistons have nothing on you! It's impressive that you're this much of a whiner at your advanced age, I can't even imagine what you were like at 20!

Oh, and you were never supposed to be un-banned. Somehow you were, and I just left it. Keep poking, making an issue out of this if you want. If you want to me a marytr, now's your chance.

What are you guys, like 13. Can't you gentlemen settle your differences in private instead of displaying to everyone how childish you can be? BOOSTD 7 I realize this is your site but I think this thread was started because the young lady in the first post had a hard time sifting through the massive amount of information offered here. I don't believe the direction that this thread is heading is going to convince her to stay. Instead of continuing this argument how about you guys let this thread die or offer some useful information to the thread starter.

I think it's pretty UNprofessional for a board owner/admin to get into a public pissing-contest with a forum member.

(shrug).

Somebody should take the high-road.

ok, switzerland entering now...

alright, ive "talked" with both of you before. i like and respect you both. you are both obviously intersted in doing this publicly, so let's get this **** over and done with already ... ok?

BOOSTD: you have publically stated that raz was not banned for mentioning another site. let's all take this at face value and say it is so. from now on, raz you were not banned for that. imho, i dont think you have to respond to any more of these public challenges. let them go, be a man and just brush it off. you are the site owner, and im sure you have better things to do with your time.

RAZ: you should just accept the facts as they have been stated. agree to disagree. your contributions here are more important than this constant bickering. stop poking the bear, accept that you will not get the answer you are looking for. its just not going to happen. now either decide to join us in great discussions (which i sincerely hope you will do) or just go to the other site and make your home there.

this constant name calling on both sites is getting ridiculous and im sure both of you are getting quite sick of it. there are many people here who have issues with other members, we choose to ignore each other. so, as the mother hen i will finally publicly declare "CUT IT OUT! BOTH OF YOU!!" you are both bigger than this and should start acting as such.

geez, i should get mod status for this one.

Lord ... fine, go ahead and spread whatever dis-information you want everybody. I can't say anything without it turing into a fight. A certain few just look for the opportunity to jump all over me. I let 99 things go, and retort the 100th one ... and I'm not being a man.

What the f-ever. I'm leaving in an hour for the Daytona 24 Hours, you know, covering a story for the only Rotary-only magazine in the world. The one that I do for absolute zero monetary reward. But go ahead and bash me, I'll be gone so you're free to say whatever you want. Tell everyone what a money grubbing bastard I am, and how I'm destroying the community. Tell them how unfair I am, and how mistreated you are ... and how enlightened you are compared to me. Have a ball, I'm out of here.

i think you misunderstood what i was trying to say. i meant no disrespect. all i meant was you dont have to respond to these public attempts at trying to humiliate you.

He called me out, I responded. I offered to discuss this, privately if need be, but you have your answer.

Chairman, I yield the floor.

Despite the tone of the argument, I believe Raz opened the door to a resolution by saying "let's put the cards on the table and clear it up". All I saw in reply was "you're the biggest whiner....". A missed opportunity. Why not discuss it rationally?

From a selfish point of view, I'd rather not have to visit 2 sites...
