Why the Nomads board turned into


a waste of time.
1. A lack of unbiased moderating
2. The chicken coop group
3. Gossip thru u2u
4. Anonymous posters

No wonder all the intelligent people say they don't have time anymore! Quantity instead of quality seems to be the goal here. And it surely shows.

At least the anons are able to get views and comments, when they use my name that is!:lol::lol::lol:

Too bad Doug. Oughtta turn into a nice chat room at the rate it's going.:no: It's already getting the same mentality.

It's because of you Junior.
#1 You are the major cause of moderation.
#2 you coined the phrase. Takes one to know one.
#3 if you say so. As if you don't do the same...
#4 as if you haven't gotten your jollies off doing just that..

I won't go into intellegent people, they know sh8t when they read it and smartly won't reply. You are the one who goes for quantity. Check your number.

you wouldn't dare check into the chat room. YOu're not man enough and who would want to chat it up with you?

Silly.

If I were living in paradise as you are I sure wouldn't be spending so much time behind the computer screen.
Go back to saving Baja.

I'm trolling my lucky lure here Junior, come on and bite it.

Quantity vs, quality.... I will say this JR, you are shameless. You could not be more full of chit.

Beat me up Scotty


Well JR I think you finally were able to slam each and every one of us with this one. It was the "quantity" thing and the intelligence gone away thing that got me. (sob)
Double edged sword if it were. :(

WHY RESPOND TO THIS IDIOT ??? PLEASE DO NOT.

PLEASE HIT THE "REPORT" BUTTON AND LET DOUG KNOW THAT THIS CRAP IS NOT WANTED. THE ONLY BAD REPUTATION NOMAD HAS GOTTEN IS DUE TO JR AND HIS RANTS AND INSULTS.

I think it's pretty disrespectful of our host who provides this free forum to denigrate it like that.

Reminds me of another poster who complained that he wasn't being "treated fairly." Heh.

If I had a complaint I would u2u it, instead of a more theatrical approach.

That's pretty funny


3 of the intelligent people take it personally and the rest of the bites are from anonymous. I was just seeing if such a rude post would be deleted or I would be kicked off. It wasn't and I wasn't! :lol::lol::lol:

Pretty unbiased moderating though.

Yall crack me up. Still!

I'm working on a new book, "Finding Ones Self Through Anonymity" Looks like it has worked incredibly well on here!:lol:

JR

If the nomads board is a waste of time why are you here? You seem to have a builtin firewall that blocks out any constructive critiscism, that would make you a more personable person, which in turn would help your projects.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm going to go out and burn some bamboo. I'll show you Jr. Hit you where it hurts.
Hey Jr, I'm only 4,400 posts behind you. You must be hearing footsteps. You know what happens to quarterbacks don't you?

My projects are fine thank you.


And the last thing I want is nomad involvement with any of them. If anyone wants to send stuff to needy people, they appreciate it. But the nonsense I have to listen to on here about it makes it barely worth it.


And basically because I'm board. I get all beat up and feel like an idiot when I'm on the WWF boards, same with the motorhead boards, so I come over here to feel intelligent! I thought that's why everyone was hear.:lol::lol::lol:

Every once in a while I throw something interesting out there. But none of that stuff gets near the response as when I mention something that may offend some if they take it personally.:lol::lol::lol: That's why I haven't been booted.
Beats watching Oprah or Soaps donit?

Constructive criticism= agreeing with those I seldom agree with? Kissing ass to make friends ? Talking behind peoples backs ? Hiding behind anonymity ? Gathering all my friends together to feel safe in Mexico? Going to the same spots over and over and pretending to know Baja ?

No gracias, I'd much rather pee people off by being honest. And the ones I respect, don't take what I have to say personally. Go figger!

Your behavior here (lately?) is that of a bully - which is very disturbing.... and grade-school:

http://www.cnn.com/US/9908/20/bullies/

Bully bahavior:
- aggression
- social ridicule
- teasing
- name-calling
- issuing threats

This attitude and behavior needs to stop. I've requested this privately, and now all this seems to just be you playing games on here... at everyone else's expense. I do not appreciate such.

I would hope - and encourage - that your interaction here remains the "interesting" kind and not the "response" inspired kind.

Not so. In the past you've "walked" the fine-line of respecting my requests. Right now you're pushing the envelope even further.

I don't want to play games.

Please play nice, or don't play at all. :biggrin:

Thanks,

JR, PLEASE, just quietly disappear.


Doug has been exceedingly patient with your incessant childishness; perhaps more than was fair to the civil folks on this board. Even when I try to skip over your usual drivel, you manage to inject your spite into people's threads where I wouldn't expect it.

What the bloody Hell is your point? DON'T ANSWER THAT.

We normally advise kids on the school yard to ignore the bully. In this case I'm ready to recommend the best solution would be to break the bully's freakin' nose.

You've earned no respect at all. I cast my vote in favor of permanent banishment.

Jeez, I've let you provoke me AGAIN.

I have never issued


any threats.
But it seems as if it's ok to do that for as many as I've seen issued.
