Thank you mods
 

I've said thank you to Mike on more than one ocassion for providing the forums, but I haven't yet taken the time to say thank you to the people that run the forum. I recently had to ask for a thread to be deleted as I was feeling mischievous and posted a childish thought. It's like daycare somedays, eh' mods? So, Thank You to all moderators for their time on the forumand for sharing their expertise. I think it'd be cool for all the mods to say, "hi" in this thread just so we all know who you are. Let's all hope for a long RC-Monster lifetime, and happy r/c-ing to all.

Right on - this is the best forum on the web IMO. Nice call _paralyzed_ and I totally agree.

Well said guys. Can't agree more with both of you. :yes:

It's not nearly as bad as you think :angel:. This place has an average maturity level high enough to keep everything moderate enough. Most of the work we do (or at least me) is keep things organized, which is still minimal.

So maybe us Mods should thank you guys? :whistle:

Thanks anyway though. It is usually thankless work. But you all pull it off greatly.

Hope to see ya at ARC soon Travis!!!!

Agree.
 

I agree that the mods are pretty good in here as well. Like metalman said most of us take the time to write and think about what we say in order to keep things cool, calm, and collected. I know we all can get a little bit out of hand sometimes, but most of us seem to work it out and correct any issues on our own for the most part. That is what has been so great about being on here for me. I like the way the mods pretty much work in the background here and deal with issues through PM's to avoid making things even worse by embarrassing members in public. Nice work guys. I was just thinking this morning how cool it has been that Mike has this place setup for us to gather, and its free. Keep up the good work Mike, and the Mods:yipi:. Thank you:yes:. Watch out for that pimp guy though.:rofl:

Top Job Mods, I am moderator on 4 other RC Forums and know about all the crap to put up with but this forum does seem to have much mature people than on other forums.

Totally agree the MOD”s and the owner! Mr. Monster are the BEST in the business, :yipi: we are all extremely lucky to have a FREE place to all get together discuss our builds, ideas, kids and life in general with some of the most interesting, intelligent and well founded individuals the web has to offer.. :yipi: :party:

This place rocks… :yes:

P.S.
BTW!!! Prop 8 passed (NO gay Marriages in Cali) Hoot, Hoot, Hooot..:rules: :yipi:

TDC57 . . . without getting too "political", you just gained huge respect in my book. Not to mention you have great taste in RC - love your Xray builds!

arnt most of the mods here ex traxxas mods?


yep great management here for sure...kudos

TDC57, SOWER, easy guys lets try to leave politics out of this forum before it becomes a roast fest....i've got a gay auntie and my fiance and I have a couple of Gay friends who are a part of her dance company....Yes its a matter of opinion but I for one was NOT in support of Prop 8...IF two people truely love and are 100% completely committed to one another why can't their relationship be legal? And if they get married why would it bother you anyway?....MYOB.... And is teaching about Gay marriage any worse than teaching kids about guns/knives/violence/the holocaust/WWI/WWII/rape/gangs/etc...etc...etc...Just my 2c....FWIW....sorry but I'm not trying to start a huge debate here and the ability to express ourselves on this forum and post whats on our minds is what makes this forum so great....I could just end the post with a "just be careful with who you might be offending" type of line BUT everyone is entitled to their own opinion....thats what makes America........America...just my 2c again

This is kind of funny - we're on a thread about the great mods in this forum and we're about to be "modded" :lol:

Anyway, I really don't have a problem with what you're saying. I have no problem with the "legal" side of this whole thing until they call it marriage. If two homosexuals want the rights to see eachother in the hospital in those "family" situations they complain about - great. If they want to commit themselves to eachother for life - great. But the family is the basic building block of our society and by natural law can only occur from a man and a woman.

The basic idea for me is that marriage is between a man and a woman - if homosexuals want something similar that's fine, but don't call it marriage and treat it as an equal because by natural law it's not.

On a side note, I totally respect your opinion on it and I'm not offended by discussing it with anyone as long as they can handle themselves in a mature manner like you're doing. And if this is too touchy for the forum then I'm cool with that too. Feel free to "mod" my post! :mdr:

I agree here. There is only one reason why we have females and males; to procreate. Gays cannot do this. And marriage is (in my eyes) a family unit that strives towards procreating.

I have nothing against gays in general - I had a pretty good friend growing up that I suspected was gay. And I have strong suspicions my father has closet issues.

Then again, gay marriages doesn't hurt anything/anyone, so why not? I can see both sides.

About Prop 8: I am quite surprised it passed really. If I am not mistaken, wasn't gay marriage allowed until now? So, does that mean gays which are currently "joined" have to divorce? Or are they "grandfathered" in?

I don't see the need to mod political/controversial topics as long as everyone can voice their opinion without others getting upset and/or flaming them.

And, I for one, was never (and never will be) a Trx mod, even if they paid me. I don't mind whatever rules they set forth, but don't think their boards are consistently modded.

No offense given and none taken Sower:yes: its great to see controversial topics/issues being discussed in a mature manner by the members of this forum.....and +1 if you need to mod my thread too Brian :wink:....and Brian I believe if they got married before Prop 8 passed thy will be "grandfathered" in....I don't think their marriage license will be taken away but IDK don't quote me on that.....again...this why this forum is great and it all starts with level-headed/open-minded MODS who conduct themselves as such :yes....

As far as I know none of us were ever Traxxas mods.
