38racing not to start this all over but he did use a swear word. Sorry you feel this way and if you feel you can monitor a board they be my guest.

I'm sick and tired of being questioned everything time something is done here. I remember the days when people were thankfull they could come to a board like this and read and post messages. I recall a lot of boards went down because the people running them couldn't handle all the attacks and swearing.

We have been running since 1999 and you can say a lot of posters will leave but you don't get the private emails i get, saying how happy people are that we clean up the site and they are coming back to post as they stopped posting as they were in fear of being attacked.

Yes we might loose a few but they will come back as they will see that there is no other board out there like this or that will stay up if they had to put up with what we have to put up with at times.

This is a free board and I don't get paid to do this, I do it because I enjoy racing. It feels like a full time job sometimes and Yes there have been times I felt like saying lets close it and just enjoy racing on TV but then I get these emails from members telling me they enjoy the site and I feel good that I can offer this site to the racing community.

Parents also know they can let their kids on here that are racing and feel part of a community without having to worry what their kids are reading. People seem to forget we run a board for all ages not just adults.

We could have told Sleepy11 to get lost and not look at what happened but we didn't I asked him to post it in ask the mods then sent a message off to the mods to look at and we came back with answer. It might have not been the one he wanted but it was better then us just saying who cares and moving on.

You could have also post in ask the mods instead of bring it up in the original post even though we locked the other post in ask the mods.

People have to understand they my not like the calls we make and some people may think some we make were questionable, no one is perfect and we are trying to keep the board running with out having blowup that get out of hand.

As I said before one of the mods edited on of my post for a word I used, so please stop saying that we have favorites as this is not the case and if I noticed this I would say something to the mods.

Like I have said before and I will say it again if you can feel you can run a better board do it and I would even help you set it up and I bet after a few months of people reporting post to you via email, all the private pms about stuff on the board all the fighting and swearing you would say I don't need this and close down. Yes some people have started there own boards and they are not up still as it is a lot of work and after a full day at work who needs more stress from a board??

I will leave it at that.

Thanks for listening to what I wrote.

Evan

I'm very sorry you don't understand this but you really have no idea how hard it is to run this site and that is why I asked for help and got some mods.

I think what we have don

I'm sure it's not an easy thing that you've chosen to do and good luck with it. I would point out as a final comment that much of the problem is with quotes like these

"..... so please stop saying that we have favorites as this is not the case......

I expressed an opinion about the approach you were taking and you come back asking me to stop saying something I never said. I wish you the best in what you are trying to do, just concerned about the future of what has been a very good site.

Canadian Racing Online i don't know where you got the idea i used a swear word but that is absolutely  100 % untrue . Not to open this can of worms again but i had to set the record strait.

I never said you said that about the favorites I'm using an example of what is being said.

I appologize to sleepy11 it was someone else that got warned with a swear word and I got mixed up and I'm sorry. I'm handling many complaints and just a slip.

Let me know when we are finished with the comments as I will delete the post as this forum is just used to resolve issues and let members that had the question say what they want to say.

OK, I've been debating for almost a week whether to respond to this topic or not??? I thought about taking this private with Evan, but that's not fair to everyone concerned and that's not the way I do things anyways.

I've been a member on this board pretty much since it's inception and have thoroughly enjoyed it through the years and still do so. I think Evan has created and allowed us to participate in the best forum you will find for Canadian Racing. It's really sad that a few in the past tried to ruin it for the rest of us.

That said, I too share the same concerns that 38Racing brought up. So much so that I considered not posting this message.
