Banned again from EvoM




Steve, who I gather is the Principal of TopLevelAuto, claimed to remove 70lbs from the trunk. I pointed out that the reduction in weight at the rear of the car will make a front-heavy machine handle worse, as per the laws of physics.

He, then, claimed to be able to remove 200lbs from the X. Given the math involved, that is pure bullshit that I illustrated in no uncertain terms - Algebra doesn't lie. Worse, his claimed reduction in weight was based on parts that are a figment of his imagination - they don't exist! It's pure fantasy.

A short time later, Speedlimit entered the discussion, flamed yours truly in a rather moronic fashion and banned me. Of course, he deleted his posts, along with mine that addressed the vendors bullshit in droves.

Speedlimit and I have a history. We exchanged several PMs, initiated by him, where he tried insulting me and throwing his weight around. When that didn't work out as seemingly hoped, he banned me - that was the first time. Clearly, the guy is an insecure wimp with balls the size of cashews.

Yesterday, he took the opportunity to get his revenge and deleted his posts that painted him as an imbecile of Herculean proportions, banning me once more.

I have no problem taking responsibility for my actions, but I loathe the abuse of power. I invited him to post his objections publicly and allowing me to respond, but he chose the cowardly, dishonest route. I wonder how many times a day he needs to be watered.

The moral of the story - it's foolish to take EvoM seriously, when its administration is composed of fools who use their standing to modify the integrity of information.

Was it a perma-ban? And what was the reason given for the ban?

Put this in perspective, I was giving a warning by SpeedLimit for "causing a thread to go off topic" on New Years Day... Now, you tell me how many posts in EvoM as a collective go off topic...

Ha I got 2 warnings on evom for calling one guy an idiot and another I was telling them all the time I hit a dog on my motorcycle and stopmed on the dogs head as it was dying cause I wa so pissed that it made me crash. Anyways they were dog lovers and didn't like the insensativity I showed even though the dog just made me wipe and broke my finger, missing skin and a trashed bike.

I'm banned for 2 weeks for flaming. Ironically, there were no name-calling, no insults - just technical questions.

Please allow me to quote an admin (Charles):

Quote:
As for your conduct, please understand that while your posts are not as
blatant or worthless as some flames like "you suck" and such, they are just
as if not more offensive. Your style appears to belittle and insult people
in more of an intellectual manner.
Essentially, I was banned for not being stupid and asking questions whose answers insulted one's intelligence, and then following-up.

It's sad that EvoM's admins support arbitrary actions with zero consistency. It isn't exactly a way to earn respect. BTW, I'm familiar with your posts and you're guilty of not being a dumbass.

That Josh....

He does a whole lot of ass kissing to keep from getting banned...

Maybe I should start a flame war with him and we both can take a vacation together...

Truth...

Scott...

He quoted what I said about my warning from SpeedLimit and then said he's seen my posts on EvoM and that I am guilty of not being a dumbass so I need clarification...
