Let me start off by saying that I'm not anywhere close to SERIOUSLY considering closing down NRN but we have to cool our jets over here. Seriously, the bashing that's picked up around here as of late is quite sickening and I would love for that to stop. Unforunately it's easier said then done.
When I started this board, I was 13 years old and wanted a place to share my thoughts on NASCAR. So I literally came up with the name "NRN" and the whole scheme of things in the shower one night then put up the GeoCities site. It was not a big board but we ran on fumes and then I lucked into getting the MS Official Forum. Since I lost the forum, this place has tanked and it seriously needs to stop.

I belive this site is getting better with the driver bashing.

Well, that's the problem, you guys have a member on here who's pissed off because he managed to get his ass banned from Carl Long forum. So he decided he's going to come here instead and bash Carl Long and his fans too without backing it up. So how about asking him to cool it unless he can back his facts up. Just because this guy "watched" enough Cup practices and qualifying events does not make him an expert to pass judgement on another driver that he doesn't know unless he's actually been with the team at the track or the shop and actually helped to prepare the car

Well, that's pretty much what happened. He was quite arrogant in his "debate" and it caused a lot of backfire. It's not the fact that he didn't like Carl Long that bothered me, it was his presentation of his rhetoric. Plus, spamming my PM with a link to his message board wasn't cool either.

What I might do is if there are personal attacks aganist another member is delete that post. That way the discussion will not get too out of hand.

It's very unfortunate that we have administrators on here baiting members in hopes of getting them banned.
If this does not stop, or if I get banned again for this reason, I'm NOT coming back.

Well, it's kinda difficult to come back if you get banned! I do like Paul's idea though.

You wern't baited. You violated the rules out of your own free will. Explain this: I, as co-admin of NRN, allowed him to post that thread. As I am a long-time Carl fan, you may ask why. I think that people like him are just looking for trouble. I think that if he gets a shot to express his insane opinions, people will see how insane they are. I went through all of his "S&P's" and debunked them. I will say he is asking to be banned. I don't censor opinons. However, he may be breaking forum rules and if I find he is, I will take action. I have... As long as you stop trolling for trouble, we will be fine.
