I can feel a Prince song coming on....

True though, cooleo still runs an old emaxx with almost zero upgrades/ changes from since he bought it back in '01- how the heck can the mods help the members if they dont know jack-diddly? The mods here, god bless them, arent really mods at all really, more like tech advisors and highly experienced, which is exactly what a forum needs to be any good. Heck, I should be a mod on the trx forum....

Well I was going to join up there like 12 to 24 months ago to see what was up as a newbie. When I tried to sign up, it got kicked back at me saying no way. It took a while for me to get an answer as to why. I spent some time reading through a few threads to see what was up. Finally I was told that you have to have a PAY email browser account in order to register. I have had a free Yahoo account for nearly ten years, and I have never had any problems with anyone else telling me that crap. Why in the heck would I want to open a pay account just to post on their forum? That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Once I came on to the RCM forum and got to see what the difference was I never went back to their site.

Who wants to be a member of some forum where you have the Natzi word police telling you every day that you cannot say things like PITA or crap. Then you get awarded 20% like an elementery school demerrit. Only children would put up with that CRAP, because they don't know any better. At least the moderators show some maturity on here. Yea we all make a mistake or slip once in a blue moon, but for the most part we are pretty clean here in RCM. I am happy that I stumbled onto this site. Besides the gang here have a lot more to offer in the way of common sense, and there is a ton of talent in here as well. You can actually learn things outside the box in here. You can just read the kit manuals for most of the posts in Traxxas. Sorry if that offends anyone here. I am just speaking my mind on what I have seen in comparison between the two. I am sure that there are some talented guys on there to, I guess they just do not post up.

Moderators for the most part are just police officers & babysitters for the message boards and most likely aren't paid for their services. Expecting them to be techs is a bit much IMO. Being a moderator at another site/hobby of similar size I have a bit of experience

It would be nice if there were techs who would be available on a regular basis for the masses but getting them to do it for free is difficult.
