Here at StreetRodding.com BigAl, Tammy and I everyday have to make decisions that affect more than 7,000 daily visitors to this site. As you can imagine, no decision will ever make 100% of you happy so our job is to find a balance which maximizes the amount of satisfaction of our visitors. Consequently, when a thread starts to get too personal, too vindictive, too repetititive, etc. then we will take action to delete said thread. We aren't taking any one side of any particular issue when we do so, we have the greater community to keep in mind. If the casual visitor or even hard core member begins to see this forum as nothing but petty squabbles or that members are not treated with respect then soon enough they will stop coming here and we can't have that happen.

We hope you will all understand that we must think of everyone and our considerations are not only who is right or wrong but how a thread, taken in the sum of everything else, contributes to the overall theme of friendship and rodding

There are plenty of sites out there that we all know that are not as popular or have fallen by the wayside because of their divisiveness and rudeness to others, we will not be one of those sites!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!
Eriq

E........yes, I must admit...a few times I have been frustrated when trying to help, then regreted , then corrected/deleted my text. Life is too short.......buried 2 old rodders last week. So, folks, before you click the "Submit New Discussion" bar, measure twice, cut once.

I really respect that and the way that you described the decision making process is both logical and fair. This is a great site and your rules will help to keep it so. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. Remember our service men and women today who are helping us be thankful with their awesome sacrifice and love of this land. God Bless our Troops. Skeet

Excellent Eriq. If I've posted something offensive or out of line I expect it to be removed. I always try to be civil and not hostile, but if something I've written comes across that way I'm certainly not offended by you guys removing it.



This is the greatest site on the web, and you've just posted why it is. Moderate it closely (as you always have) but allow important issues to be raised and discussed.



Thanks to all three of you for all of your hard work!

Count me in with the rest of you. I haven't been around this site long, and am a new rod owner (but an old dude). I came in looking for some tech help, and received a ton of good responses. Thanks to all of you. It's a great site and void of foul language, cheap shots, and ridiculous chat found on many forums. Keep it up!!! Merry Christmas to you all!!!
