Just like the old days

What's kind of strange is that in most cases the folks complaining about how great the message board used to be are the very same ones that ran to Facebook and all the others to begin with.

Then they come back, pop in and act aghast at how the board is since they have gone somewhere else.....like 4m should have stayed exactly the same and waited on their return.

Please notice I said " most cases" and didn't throw a blanket over everyone.....the people that wear that shoe know it fits.

Some of the original members that keep whining about the old days have actually sucked all along and gotten away with their little exclusives club game forever. Stepping on anyone that displeases them by way of contacting Mods and becoming Mods. They are the problem themselves!!!

ya know, someday somebody might invent a site called 5m, and on that site you could say whatever you wanted too with no mods.......and then where would this site be. makes you think doesn't it.

Agree 100%......Ive been a member of several FB hunting pages. The first ones claimed you could say what you want, but the mods started kicking people out when they did. There was a lot of arguing and nonsense most of the time. Members started leaving right and left because of the mods kicking people out for no reason.

And then, one of 'us"....started a new page where anything goes. Believe it or not, there is very little arguing now and no one gets kicked out!....and its the same members from the last page! Go figure!

So to answer flagone, which is probably a mod. I don't care if I am banned and this is my last post, but here goes. There is no reason somebody shouldn't be able to say what they want about racing or a race track unless there is vulgar language. This is a racing site for crying out loud. This site says the most opinionated. On top of that what do you think of freedom of speech? The truth? You can't handle the truth? What is it. You want to dance around in a field of dandelions on a sunny day? Well this is not real life or the world you live in.

Never really thought of that angle , I wasn't around back then so I can't comment on that one way or the other.......like everything else, can't really throw a blanket over everyone from back then either because that wouldn't really be fair or accurate for me to say.

i can definately see your point about a few of the guys that object to new folks with new opinions......they aren't hard to spot.

I like the latest round of moderating , it is needed.
