I most certainly am not - I knwo for a FACT that there are two posts that
are both illegal and libelous on RSC about AutoSimSport and me personally -
I also know for a fact (and have screenies to prove it) that mods at RSC
have messed with the original posts.

But yes, Remco, everyone else is definately wrong :-)

ding ding ding...now you have got it. You don't matter. I don't
matter. We are users, they are providers. They make rules and they can
bend/break rules. And I'm not hiding behind a 'it's my money so what I say
goes..' Thats not hiding, thats cold hard truth. If I pay for something,
you or God or a Monkey can't tell me what to do with it so long as it
doesn't cause injury.
Face it..you got a little swat to your behind and have spent all the time
since making things worse. Too bad. But it doesn't make the RSC boys
evil.
I'm sorry you have had problems with RSC. But then my sorrow changes
nothing either. Buck up, MOVE ON. Really I mean it this time...thread
closed.
ta ta.

I don't. So there. Where does this need for a big emotional hug from
RSC come from. Alright. All you belly achers...which ones DIDN'T get
breast fed as babies? There has got to be a logical reason for this NEED
to be validated.

Straw man. My point was, that, as the most visible and most commonly
visited sim site on the planet, that it doesn't show either them or
the
community in a good light if certain moderators engage in questionable
behaviors. This is a likely route to either irrelevance or oblivion
(for some community members, RSC has indeed started to become
irrelevant).

Imagine if an organization in a real-world community somewhere,
an organization which has a very high profile there and is able to
serve certain needs for its community, started to get all ****y and
obnoxious in certain respects. You don't think the community
members would have a right to be annoyed?

Well, the birds of certain feathers seem to be flocking together dont
they?

Speaking of hard to understand, that first sentence is a doozy.

I, and many others, fail to understand the use of the warning. Some
clown said you were basically using it just because it's there in the
software - no need to follow in the footsteps of the fools who put it in
there!

What purpose does it serve exactly? It probably just makes that person
more interesting if anything - they'd have to be more likely to post
something good and juicy! I mean, what are other users supposed to do? Stay
away from them? Not read their posts? Oh, I'd better stay away from his
links else I might end up with some really good, free software?

You must be off your ****ing head!

Ok, so anyone posting a link to anything needs to get a supreme court
ruling that it is not copyrighted - no worries

RSC policy - never give members the benefit of the doubt and pass up an
opportunity to weild the big, yellow stick!

And while I'm at it...

My only point here is this: when someone in the community does
something, does it benefit the community, or does it harm it? And
the higher the profile/influence of the party in question, the
greater their effect on things, for good or ill:

In this vein I see the release of rFactor as being a very good
thing. It will bring together racers who formerly probably
never did anything together and had little in common.

Likewise, all that First/iRacing stuff didn't do the community
any good at all. To name just one thing, it was probably a
contributing factor to the low number of people who signed
up for the recently-canceled Nurby 24 Hours for the GTP
mod (as a number of people have publicly said that the
First fiasco turned them off to racing NR2003).

Say someone visits RSC for the first time, lurks around and
sees a huge flame war where the mods are just fueling the fire.
His conclusion is likely that he won't be wanting to associate
with ANYONE, on both sides-thus we just lost a potential
member of our racing fellowship.
