BANNED: Rustler. Why?

Where did the thread go with his FJ sunk up to the doors in muck, and why is he banned?

This guy was getting picked on for something stupid he did and we banned him? Doesn't sit right with me...

Please can someone fill me in, and please tell me this is a temporary ban?

Re: BANNED: Rustler. Why?

Let me expand... in addition to the fact that this was a good lesson to be learned/reminded for all of us, that was one wicked photo.

I hate to see stuff like this closed because we can't get along. I know the mods work hard but maybe more post by post editing and reprimands rather than mass deletion. If I am missing something I apologize in advance.

If he deserved it, well, I can no longer see the proof. Not even edited proof.

Maybe he called someone an "IDIOT" or didn't properly post in "Off-Topic"?? Just a thought........

If calling someone an idiot gets you banned then alot of the people who responded to his thread ought not to be here. Did you see him getting flamed? I hate bullying. I'm 5'6" tall, that's now full grown. I know a little about being bullied, and I won't tolerate it, even if it does mean me getting my @$$ handed to me. Atleast I tried.

Re: BANNED: Rustler. Why?

While i read his threads n post, I thought he was never respectful to other members and their opinions and seemed to attack "off-roaders" as a whole. Although i never posted on his thread(s), i thought he was an @sshole ne wayz.
Initially he was one a 3-day ban, but came on as a "new-member" shortly after that, resulting in a permanent ban.




juss me .02 tho

Re: BANNED: Rustler. Why?

*sigh*

After some reported posts, I went back and read all of his posts. Not only did he have multiple user nemes but about every 2 out of 3 posts was bashing somebody. I banned him and his alias.

Then he or his buddies started coming on in droves to continue the onslaught. Another mod closed the thread to get some control as new users were popping up like mad to make negative comments.

Joel,
this is not your first post questioning how the site is run. We don't just do things on whims. There are reasons. I hope you understand.

Bill

I didn't see the thread. Seems we have a few of them bullies around here that like to incite to get reactions. One of the reasons I've been spending less time around here........

the bashing was going both ways, and he was arguing in a civilized manner. just because somebody gets sand in their vagina doesnt mean you should go on a banning spree.
oh noes someones feelings got hurt because someone made good points in a argument and they couldnt respond.

Hustler, you are also TreeHuggingPansy. Multiple accounts. "Bye bye baby, Mix gotta go" (old Sir Mix-a-lot song)
