Actually yes, and no. I know a lot of people that don't come here anymore because of how the forum is turning out regardless of what car they own.

We get to be part of a great community that has existed this way since its conception, some members like myself want this place to remain that way, there are far too many people here to not enforce rules and filter out slanguage... Imagine if it wasn't filtered and people went around going:
y0 ***** dis wing on my f'ing subie is f'ing sick, f'ing a'.
The occasional Fbomb isnt a concern, its the bigger part of the picture, we have to set an example for the whole place... Is it THAT big of a deal that you cant call someone a "******", or say "f uck", or whatever? Really? If it is, go somewhere else! We're not children, we're adults, adults don't speak to each other on the web as if they were 14 years old with a potty mouth. Real life is different than here. Everything you say here is anazlized by everyone! You're heard, loud and clear!
With that being said, I'll tub girl the next person who questions my authoritar! (which I have little of, I just try to glue the place together, I have no POWER, I can be banned just as you can, and hell, I almost have! But they keep me around because I threaten to kill their families... and so, I'm a moderator.
)

the only reason iclub exists is because of the members.. so the admin/mods should want to do everything they can to keep the members happy... if the majority of the members are frustrated... then perhaps something should change.. i am not trying to be ignorant.. but seriously... we are the reason why the adspace is so valuable.. without us no one would want to pay iclub for the ad's they place here.. am i wrong?
otherwise i would start a forum that didn't have members and would rake in the dough.. but that just isn't the case..
keep your people happy...

Exactly, it's just a few members getting heated and complaining... If you don't like the rules, well we don't want you here... If you accept the rules and want to be part of this community, we welcome you... We don't ask for much.

)let me clarify.. i don't have an issue with the filters, censorship. thats a decision the admins/mods/owners make.
I just hate the pick n choose what to enforce thing. I find it unfair that I got trolled for saying the n word how i did, yet people get away with saying things that are equally as bad.
I have no problem with the actual rules man.. its just how they are enforced.
