    Default Bullying on our boards will be dealt with when reported

    This board is suppose to be fun and informational. At times it can get heated on some subjects but still remain civil. There are some that have thinner skin than others but there are also some members here that have taken to being a bully to the point members are wanting their accounts deleted. This is not acceptable here and I'm done asking these bullying members to play nice. If you want to keep poking other members with a stick or be rude or demeaning to our members I'm going to start by deactivating your account for a week. After a week you can email or PM me asking to be given your posting privileges back. I will activate your account only if you promise to play nice. If you are reported again I will remove you as a member. If you try and get around the system and create a new account under a new name I will remove and ban all your accounts and you will never see this board again.

    I hate to have to do this but my hand has been forced. I've tried to let these folks work it out but in their mind their doing nothing wrong. If enough people complain about the same members then they are doing something wrong. I hate babysitting grown folks but I'm not going to let SpyderLovers be run into the ground by the action of just a few. Play nice or play somewhere else, I'm done trying to reason with you guys.

    Default Sad...!!

    You have done a great job and are doing a great job with your site. But to keep it at the standards set you have to do occasional weeding. Keep up the good work it is the best spyder site around.

    Gene,
    Are you "kissing-up" to the Boss?

    I use to belong to a forumr guns. I do not ever open it again. Between the bulling and rudeness. I do not care if a new or older member comes on here every day and asks about tires, oil or other heavily covered topics.
    He came here for hopes of getting answers from people who have life time experience with their question.
    I my self find searching frustrating plus I want to know I am getting the most recent information.

    i really shouldn't say anything on this subject, but here it goes because i am someone that was involved in a one sided fight that got me banned for a couple of weeks.

    FIRST: take your argument to pvt. messages.

    SECOND: we all think different, so why argue and call names, it's a forum so just move on.

    THIRD: we are all adults, so lets act that way. i don't think there are 5 year old's on here that run to the teacher to tell them.

    FORTH: if you are going to report someone, tell the person that you did. why should a person be suspended or banned without knowing who reported them or why they are being punished.

    and lastly, i saw this post from lamont when he first posted it. i consider myself very lucky on here that i have a few friends that wright me a pm if they think one of my posts or something i say in not appropriate, and as soon as i get the pm, even if i think what i posted was ok, i delete the post. so lets all just get along and have a good time laughing and learning.

    now like the first time i got booted, every time i sign in i will be waiting to see if i am still a member or not.

    The reason you're "FORTH" is not going to work is because folks can feel free to report a post without being called out by the offender or anyone else. I'll decide if it was justified or not. This is what I've been doing for 16 years now so I'm pretty fair.

    If I may... telling them that they're being reported only offers up another chance for the (alleged) offender to get nastier...
    Let the Boss handle it, and it'll work out!

    Although a "Shot across the bow", to warn you that you're on thin ice... might be sufficient.

    In the words of the great philosopher, Rodney King, "can't we all just get along?"
    I agree with the above, let the boss handle it!

    I'm sure a few people have complained about me. In the future I'm going to refrain from commenting before I've had my Snickers.

    I absolutely love this site. It has helped me enjoy my spyder even more. I always read it for advise and comments. We all have different opinions, thoughts and ideas. That is what makes us unique. If I don't like what someone posts I just move along. We should all wear life like a loose jacket. Don;t get bogged down by the small stuff.
