Warning, "Verbose" ahead...
Hey Ya'll ,
__We need to have a heart to heart here;
(
M916 specific info at the end) HA!
The people whom have contacted me off list in support of my position is phenomenal.
I do understand why so many are so hesitant to sound off here, you ARE AFRAID
OF BEING BLACKLISTED / BAN'D and THAT is a serious flaw here gentlemen.
To live in a society/forum, where you are afraid to speak,
is so VERY wrong.
I am a public guy, my email is
steelsoldiers@plumbers.cc
Comments off list are welcome and will remain confidential ya'll.
IMHO this thread belongs to me,
period. I
t is MY HOUSE, for the MOST part, I am the
sole contributor. This thread is approaching an amazing
TWENTY TWO THOUSAND views folks. I built
it within the confines of the SS walls, best as I could. Granted SS hosts it and we need
to try
to keep our posts within the MASSIVE RULEs set, the Plethora of rules and
regulations
they demand upon us, but as we all know there are so many silly rules it
is really hard to remember them all,
especially when we consider this forum
to be a place where we come to recreate, not a place whereas every corner we turn a mod
says, in essence,
SHOW ME Zee PAPERS! Not a place where we need to worry
if our skin color or race will be the next thing to get us ban'd! Not a place where
if we do not list our home address PERFECT, we will get a rules infraction
accompanied w/ a one year probationary watch, a full blow SS RAP SHEET is exactly
what they keep on us it is. Want me to show you????
The noose is wayyyyyy to tight... the rules are such that GOOD men are AFRAID
to mouth off like
I WILL, for fear of BANISHMENT.
My GOD, just listen
to what I just wrote, and it is SO TRUE!
H E L L O !
THE LAWS FOR LEGIT MEMBERS NEED TO BE RELAXED. Period.
Having said this we need to move on gents. I do believe the powers that be have
heard us and I do believe they are doing "
something?" about it. Case and point,
mod Doghead (Eric) has backed away BIG TIME and we rarely see his relentless wrath
anymore. Additionally I have expressed my disgust behind the scenes w/
many a man in the SS drivers seat(s) recently, and FWIW, I am still here. Do I gloat?
no,
I PRAY, that is a fact, I PRAY because if I did NOT CARE about this forum I would
have been so gone a VERY long time ago. This forum
needs to PROSPER, but
berating, baiting, chastising and trashing
quality members over frivolous rules
will ONLY lead to its ultimate demise. Ask me how I know? I have quizzed MANY
an old timer about this list and the amount of men whom have walked because
of the way the mods trashing them is HUGE! Huge I say! I have done a couple of poles!
No conjecture, JUST FACTS!
Before I moved to the SS forum I was spending all my time over at the
Tractorbynet forum.
That forum does NOT thrash its members anywhere near like this forum does
and the membership count there is like TRIPLE! I dare you to
CLICK HERE Yep, out
of ALMOST 300,000 members, I was picked as a member of the month. What
an honor. I can't tell you how uplifting that experience was / is. Then I decided
to move the SS list and immediately I was jumped HARD by a couple mods
whom TRASHED me hard, even proclaiming; " THIS IS NOT THE TRACTOR FORUM "dude",
DO IT OUR WAY OR LEAVE" . Go look it up in the archives, that is very close
to the verbatim I suffered through.
I have been accused by more that one, of "
overreacting" on the recent editing
of my post (#463) where I sought help to make data plates for the M915 series trucks
in this thread. NEVER did I think I was doing this forum a disservice by trying
to find like minded folks to pool our resources and make some data plates, understand
whereas I was doing this service for COST, not profit mind you, basically for
free and
in the end I would end up loosing a few dollars,
but admonished I was.
I did thank the mod for not instantly
giving me a 1 year probationary SITE INFRACTION. BTW, All infractions are RECORDED
and kept
in your PERNAMNET DISAPLINARY FOLDER here guys.
YOUR SS RAP SHEET! THAT ALONE is enough
to make ANY MANS BLOOD BOIL, especially when this a forum where we come to play, to socialize
a place to have fun, NOT A PLACE TO BE WORRIED IF I JUMP OFF THE SWING TOO
HIGH I WILL GET The PADDLE! Think real about that, unfortunately THAT is what it has turned into.
Now, here is what you do not know and why I came / am so unglued over a mod EDITING MY WORDS
in post #463 where I sought guys to help make data plates, WITH OUT MarkUp / with out Profit too!
Just a few weeks ago, in the CHAPLINS CORNER, NO LESS, I was given a ONE YEAR SITE RULES INFRACTION BY ANY MOD because the state I live in was listed wrong under my name. I KID YOU NOT.
You can not make this stuff up guys. I was given a ONE YEAR PROBATIONARY SITES RULES VIOLATION BECAUSE ON MY GEOPGRAPHICAL LOCATION WAS NOT PRECISE!!! LOL The funny part is I can go find MANY of these said violations all over the site!
It said "Western, USA", under my avator. THAT? was enough for a one year probationary, disciplinary
punishing slap in the face.
What the.............??????????????
Now here is the icing on the cake.
And this HAS been sent to the powers that be w/o response;
My avatar is a fictional TV cartoon charcter named BENDER.
This program has been piped into all homes across the USA
during Prime Time where all children see it, for years.
Well BENDERS favorite phrase is; "
Bite my shiney metal azz".
You can what that here;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pRnQYS0S5c
THAT is exactly what I had entered under my character, I believe
it was in the LOCATION area where you would write your state.
All children throughout the USA see it, during prime time, THAT IS FACT.
Well, apparently we have a moderator whom has NOT owned up to this
editing of my profile, this moderator thinks this is over the top, it
is like Heroin and Krack and his congregation needs not see what I see
as art, this mod sees as FILTH. Do you see the problem here???????????
Well, here about 4-6 months ago, a moderator took it upon his/herself
to CHANGE that phrase from "Bite my...."to "
Western, USA" now go re-read what I just wrote.
I was given a one year probationary rule infraction for something that
is just absolutely ridiculous, and no less from a moderator with over
THIRTY TWO THOUND POSTS HERE. You need to reread that and
put 2+2 together....H E L L O!
So I was trashed a couple of weeks ago, given a one year probationary infraction then just a
week or so later a post in my thread here, that I wrote, was EDITED where I was just trying to
help my fellow M915 series owners, whereas as I was doing it for FREE as well.
This is called blacklisting.
I do not deserve it. If I do please explain man to man in PUBLIC!
PS, I have new info on the KATS Ether valve I started before all this thrash interrupted me.
I will be posting it up soon so you can all learn how to replace the ether solenoid valve
on these great trucks.
(VERBOSE it "may" be)
