Why do you guys keep make change in my treads ?


Recommended Posts

By MONACO BODYGUARDS™ has been removed from all my threads.....

 

Why do you continue to make changes in my threads ? A few months ago you changed the heading in the same threads.

 

I start to get pretty sick and tired of that. Do you guys want want me to leave ?

 

Why don't you spend MORE time on making some threads YOURSELF.... contributing more to the forum instead of this.... ?????

Monaco,

Im not a Mod so Im not speaking for them, but my guess is they just wanted to clean things up a bit. I think everyone on this forum wonders (and has wondered) why you post things the way you do with the ALL CAPS in your titles and even for your user-name, and the TM' after each post, and the posting of your user name "BY MONACO BODYGUARDS" after each thread, it just never made sense to me. :huh: It comes off as kind of arrogant, and I think thats why they have warned you not to do so. The forum automatically announces who the author of each thread is to the right of the title. I always wondered why a thread with Lambo pictures in it couldnt just be, "Pics of Babes and Lambos", instead of "MY LAMBO PICS AND BABES THREAD - BY MONACO BODYGUARDS TM'". :blink:

 

By the way, just giving my .02 here so please dont take offense to it. I always enjoy your threads and I know there are plenty of us who have been interested in the stuff youve shared with the forum. :) That is just something Ive noticed in your postings over the years, and why Im pretty sure they are reacting this way.

I can offer you the same answer we gave to all the members in the past who threatened to leave... "it's up to you".. You can leave or you can stay just please spare us from your mega dramatic thread titles and your Trade Mark signs..

I don't know which mod removed them this time but I have edited your threads in the past and will keep on doing it in the future if I find the need...

Why you think you any different from any other member who gets his thread edited?

It was me.

 

If you want your reason please refer to Lightning's erudite and succinct post.

 

I also wish to draw your attention to Rakjoe's post; if you keep on doing it we will keep on removing it, what makes you different? etc etc.

Well since you refer to Lightnings post..... you think I come off arrogant...( I can live with that )..... then I have the right to tell you something too:

 

To me you come off like a working class guy who will never ever own a Lambo. But you can live your dream as a moderator, picking on somebody trying to contribute to the forum.

 

I will be honest I don't like you ( many are afraid of being honest as they think it might lead to banning). And I REALLY wonder how you became a moderator..... It should have been Nath4N. BUT I have NEVER disrespected me as you have to me now.

 

Anyway I was thinking that it might have been you and I was right.

 

 

 

And on the topic itself:

 

I have used MONACO BODYGUARDS TM etc for many months, why did you need to change it now after so long?

 

Why don't you guys have clear guidelines, then I would have avoided this from the beginning.

 

At first my heading was changed ok ok I accepted that and was told I could write in the subtitle and everything was ok for months. Now you just change that too, WITHOUT any explanation or anything.

 

Just tell me from the BEGINNING and don't change it after months. You make new rules as you please.

 

Why could you have send me a PM explaining that you now have NEW rules for the subtitle as well and asked if I could change it myself.

 

 

 

* I have my MONACO BODYGUARDS TM bla bla design but DOES that really matter ?

 

* I might come off a little arrogant but does it really matter ?

 

I have made MANY MANY threads and since 2005 invested my time , energy and dedication into them. And THAT is the reason why I get so upset when some moderator changes the rules months after months. That is lack of respect for my work.

 

What do you other guys think? Can anybody see what I mean ? If so SPEAK up NOW !!!

Well you are HONEST and I respect that. No hard feelings.

 

I make the threads, then I also want to decide the content and the design. This MONACO TM bla bla was just something I though was cool. No harm intended. It is just my "signature".

 

The MORE important thing is the content and that I stand for and that I am proud of.

I think you have misunderstood something. So let me make it clear for you:

 

You should be supporting old member that have contributing a lot to our forum, that itself should be valid for some sort of credit.

 

In the past they were removed in the heading, and I was told it was OK in the subtitle. Now after MANY months somebody suddenly decide to change the rules. That is why I start to think somebody want me to leave.

 

It was a question IF you guys wanted me to leave it was not a threat..... And by the way I don't care if you don't like my "mega dramatic thread titles", because THAT has NOTHING to do with THIS discussion.

:eusa_think: Just my take (and Im just any other guy on the internet). Since you asked:

 

I thought it was kind of funny and slightly entertaining that you did that every time. A little extra 'spice' to the forum.

 

Sort of like:

 

"dah dah dah daaaahhh.... Monaco Bodyguards HAAAAAASSSS SPOKEN, read immediately!!!

 

on the other hand:

 

Clearly you're an authority on what you do, but.........So are a lot of people here. So that's probably the motive with this issue for the Mods. I'd say take it for what it's worth (stay or move on), just like Slowpoke had to do when he kept getting this dreamgirl ripped off his posts. Whether you like it or not, It is what it is, no one's immune to the arbitrary hand of the Mods and no one is Above "The Law" here. They do it to one guy, they have to do it to everyone.

I am with MB on this one, I enjoy his threads he does put a lot of effort into them with beautiful photos and huge amount of useful tips and info specially for travelers.

I don't see what the big deal is with the caption in the threads, he comes off as arrogant because he is arrogant who cares that's what his line of work requires him to be that's what he will be, as you Captain come across very cocky and sarcastic which by the way I appreciate the most because I honestly enjoy your witty answers and sarcasm, I love intelligent humor, nothing cracks me up more than reading one of your posts, we all bring something to the table, we all have our personality online sometimes it is very difficult to portray the exact person that we are in real life and we end up in conflict, I guess some of us find it very difficult to express in writing or english is our second language that's why sometimes we are being perceived as being, arrogant, cocky, sarcastic, dumb, intelligent, funny, rude keep on adding to this.

 

I have no idea why Captain become a moderator I don't know him that well, I trust the decision of the board management and I think MB was rude of you to question his abilities and worthiness without being able to have knowledge of all the relevant facts that contributed to the decision making process, I always assumed that he became a moderator because he stood out of our European members, one of the most involved on the board contributing with useful car info, F1, racing etc etc, I definitely think he's worthy in spite of the fact that he likes Zonda and I don't :lol2:

 

I do think that the way he went about deleting things from your threads was wrong and in the spirit of the game along with the fact that you are a respected forum member that contributes a lot, he should've contacted you first and ask you to remove it yourself explaining why he thinks that should happen, I guess it gets a bit boring in the monitoring booth in UK but in the same time his powers as a moderator allows him to do so without prior notice, being from Europe he's probably asked to monitor European members and that's what he's doing.

 

My personal opinion is that we should always try to get along and stop carrying on like a bunch of high school girls, I appreciate a person that speaks his/her mind I hate brown nosers I understand why MB is frustrated so MB if you want to stay or go that's your choice, it sucks to see contributing members go specially over nonsense but such is life, do whatever you have to do MB, I personally don't want to see you go but if you feel uncomfortable here why would you keep on posting this should be relaxing for you not a task.

 

Now let's just talk about cars :icon_thumleft:

I think a sense of perspective is required here.

 

We have someone who now wants to sling mud at me because I removed a username from a thread sub-title.

Now since I have done this I am sure the world is still turning on its original axis.

 

Now to a point I have enjoyed Monaco's post but to a point.

 

Is it the first time Monaco has had his thread titles modified?

No.

Has he had his titles modified prior to me becoming a mod?

Yes.

Have the mods that did this told him?

Yes.

Is Monaco's name still in the column marked "Topic Starter"?

Yes.

Does it change the content of his thread?

No.

 

So I am just being merely consistent here yet here we have someone who wants to sling mud at me yet what a lot of people do not realise is that this character is less than pure on here, falling foul of the boards terms and conditions previously.

 

Additionally if everyone started doing this then the board would look a right mess.

 

The management of the board decided to appoint me and if the management of the board feel they have made the wrong choice they will act so and I will respect that.

I also respect that some people on here will not like me and I will certainly not ban anyone for airing this in anyway providing it is done within the board guidelines.

I respect that people have different opinions, afterall that is the spice of life and the great thing about global boards like this but I would really like to think that Monaco on reflection realises that his reaction to this event, his previous events and the content of his above post is beyond excessively puerile, immature and ridiculous.

I was just honest! You started the mud slinging yourself when you referred to Lightings threat. So now I hope that is clear.......

 

You do however miss the whole point. The threat title has been changed previous because of CAP but I was told that I could do it in the sub-title.

Do you understand me now?

Monaco, you are a valued member of the board and the majority of the mods actually enjoy your threads quite a bit.

 

This is far too small an issue to let yourself get so fired up. From time to time we're going to make formatting or editorial changes to threads if we feel it better serves to improve the flow, cosmetics, or other areas of the site for our members.

 

Don't blow this out of proportion, it's not worth it.

Threat?

 

Again Monaco, seriously, storm in a teacup. Lighting's post (especially the first paragraph) explained my reasoning compiled with Rakjoe's response.

Please do not try to belittle me with your tone of me gaining some sort of mis-understanding, as arrogant as this may sound you do not have the skill or (as you raise it) the class to do so.

THANK YOU!!!

 

I am not joking with you, that actually warmed my old (but strong) heart to hear :)

 

 

Problem here is that I know when I have done wrong and I am ALWAYS strong enough to admit it.

 

But this time I don't back off, as I am right. Moderators can not and should not change the rules as we go by.

 

I just want CLEAR guidelines. Moderators can not tell me it is ok to do it in the sub-title and then change it just like that.

The reason for my irritation is that it has happened one too many times. I played along and followed the guidelines I got but then somebody just put that aside... not in my world or any.

That statement tells me everything there is to say about your character, you DEFENATLY are not coming across as a class act, in fact I wouldn't mind NOT having you around Lambo Power, you became a serious nuisance and if you not gonna change your ways around here you will be shown the door out very soon.

I don't care how many threads you made or how many e-friends you have here, if you don't behave in a civil manner we will moderate you until you get your shit together..

I appreciate your contribution as much as I appreciate any one's but that doesn't give you the right to act up, LP will not cease to exist after you leave, I promise you that.

 

 

As far as Capt Chaos is concerned, let me just say that he is as qualified to be a mod as any of us other mods and MORE qualified then the rest, that's why he is a mod I guess... :icon_mrgreen:

Thread! And don't try to be smart with me, this is my 3. language so don't take that tone. You just show the real you.

 

You are trying to write so high flying english, you are not a doctor or a layer. You are working class. Forever.

 

So get to work and put it back, admit that you were wrong and don't do it again.

 

 

PS you did not answer the most important part:

You do however miss the whole point. The thread title has been changed previous because of CAP but I was told that I could do it in the sub-title.

Monaco, it is a fine line between a fair response and one that goes careering over a respectable boundary, you know this, and you have gone out of your way to insult me now. A style of language is selected for the occasion and a breviloquent tone is required in this unnecessary situation.

 

The chances of me making the changes to fall inline with your expectations are slim to non-existent. That is not me being arrogant that is the way of the board's format.

And you are STILL going out of your way trying to speak high flying english even you know that I am not. What does that say about YOU ?

 

Why has my threads been like this since I made them and NOW suddenly not fitting the board's format ?

 

That one you still fail to explain me....

Breathe, Monaco, breathe.. This is not worth it, a great forum such as this one does not need unnecessary drama.

 

 

Didn't we do all this before?

 

We do need to discuss things like this. We have lost too many users.

 

Rules must be clear and understandable. Do you know what I mean?
