I guess I see their point, but as Bar says, we are their customers and I never got the feeling from anyone (except you guys) that they cared if their #1 thread died.
Mods can do little things like infractions, edit posts etc. Admins can make subforums, and other sorts of administrative things that mods cannot see nor have any access to.

See anything unprofessional, or disrespectful in my post?

This is the internet. But the revenue is real. Anyone remember the whack job Facebook did on Friendster and MySpace? You don't even have to treat your customers badly ... they'll go where the service is best.

Thanks ACL, 80 & Johnso
Hear Hear! They've made this the good product it is.

Somehow, knowing a little about how the business is run allows me to make them angry at the highest levels although my post was innocuous & common sense.

FYI:

That's real money.

That said, the Super Admin is the Internet Brands site administrator and he/she has overall control over this site for Internet Brands. I will state again, send a PM to them, and,I suspect, as I have found out, a dialogue via PM will resolve the issues that need resolving.
Clee began his post with a thinly veiled threat to ban me.

Stay here...



Sure someone around here has a running tab you could use.

And make sure you stay at a place that has this sign up:



However note the date.

I got a PM from CleeIb also telling me I was out of bounds. I've never posted a single picture. His criticism was that i was disrespectful of the mods because i sttempted to point out that we are the customer. I chose to ignore him.

Heyas Bar,

APC is as "Public" as they come, without even so much as a registration fee to slow down someone registering.

FWIW, and at the risk of getting me perma-banned, I recommended to a few people a year or so ago that we take our little gang and head to somewhere else that was a LITTLE more private, with no ads, and a hands off approach.

We could be a little more open because cards would be checked at the door, and I had a "blind" forum manager that would keep things anonymous.

But it was $10 a head, and no one wanted to do that.

Nu

I heard they've got the internet on computers now.

On a more serious note, let us know what happens. One interesting thing, this thread is closing in on 100,000 posts. So I echo what Ferd said about thanks ACL, 80 and J29 for making this possible. I remember the night one among us posted an underboob pic and was suspended. I'd never heard of the term before then. But since that was fixed I have to say it's been a whole lot better.

I'd also like to thank the diabolical mind behind 80buzzenFTBs.

$10 would be fine with me, I just spent twice that on dinner

I think the simple fix for the common issue is for you and Bar to post more pictures. Since neither of you do.

Jesse? do you have any pictures you could spare?
