This thread had originally been removed from public view because of all the crap that had been ongoing in it. However, when my Jet Moderator asked me about the possibility of banning a member I came across this thread in researching that member and I have decided that after cleaning up this thread it can come back to the open forum. Since a manufacturer has used this thread to announce a product I feel that we should make every effort to leave the thread open in the forum. Therefore, I have cleaned all the useless crud out of the thread and moved this thread back into the open forum. Many of you will notice that there are huge chunks missing from this thread now, that's because I cut out anything that I felt didn't apply to the original topic of the thread. However, I am going answer a couple of questions below since I think that they are important and then that will be the last "off topic" posts that are going to be allowed here.


Nobody is every banned from RCU for their opinions. That's not going to happen EVER. However, members do get banned from RCU for their actions. A member that continually causes problems in the forums, attacks members, ignores moderators instructions, and simply does whatever they want regardless of the rules is going to eventually get banned. There is a member here that is pretty much at that point. I am sorry but I can't discuss a members username about who that is, but I have researched back and the member in question has been given ample opportunities to change his actions here on RCU however he chooses to continue to act in the same manner. The sands in the hourglass are pretty much ran down.

I won't promise that we will make a thread like this a sticky at the top of the forum. And a thread like this will not be a "free for all" where the rules of RCU get to be ignored, but we do allow many different segments of the RC Communities on RCU to have a "Hangout" thread such as this. They don't really have any giving topic other than they are a place for all the jet community (in this case) to come together and talk about whatever they feel like chewing the fat about on a given day. We have done this for the Car Guys, the Tank guys, and a few others as well. So if you all want to start a similar "Hangout" thread you have my blessing in doing so. Just remember, while there isn't a given topic it has to follow, it does have to follow the rest of the rules of RCU such as not attacking each other, cussing, porn, etc. I think you all get the idea of what I'm talking about. And as far as my making it a sticky, if you all are in it every day I won't have to make it a sticky as it will stay up at the top on it's own. That's they way the Car Guy's thread does.

One guy ruins RCU only if you let him. As was pointed out elsewhere, you can always put somebody on your ignore list and you will never see any post from that person ever again. I know a lot of people do that and it's made them much happier. But like I said, if you don't let the person ruin your experience here they can't ruin it.

I think I've covered just about everything. If anybody has any questions please PM me and don't clog this thread up any longer.
