[quote]Justin, I think you missed something important. I agree that the clearcoat advice was not good, and needed to be (respectfully) pointed out. And by no means am I discouraging them from participating — all I’m asking for are the games to stop. Check your own chat archives.I’m very disappointed that these guys would be pimping threads over here and encouraging each other to taunt other members over on ab101, and openly state that they are testing my management of the site. That’s the long and short of my issue. You wouldn’t like it if it were going in the other direction, would you?
I realize you guys don’t care, and are probably even now getting a good laugh at my expense, but last night was pretty lousy for me and very upsetting to see people I thought I could be friends with behaving this way.
Like I said…appealing to basic decency here…can you guys please stop playing games with the site? If you have something constructive to contribute, please…contribute. I’m more than willing to move beyond this incident, but I’d like to be able to focus on more important things and not have to worry abut stuff like this.
Does that sound reasonable?[/quote]
