how ironic...

 

I guess I set myself up for that one lol

 

There is nothing wrong to belong to other forums,, sometimes a forum might not have the information you seek where another forum might ..And the bottom line here, is trying to help people in need

I used to surf the net for Honda sites and tried to help as many people in different sites as i could when time allowed me,, As a mater of fact i was Moderator at another site as well.. but what really turned me off about that site and other accord forums is the DISRESPECT members had for one another ,, arguing and name calling on a daily basis .. In 2 of the forums even the moderators would name call and belittle the members ,, When i asked them why they disrespect members ,, I was told that modertors there can do what ever they want ,,WOOOOOOOO needless to say i got the hell out of there ,,,
in some forums the people in charge treat members differently ,,, I feel that everyone should treat everyone with the same respect and that includes even the people in charge ,,People in charge have to lead by example ..You cannot disrespect a member and then expect other members to show respect to one another
I then came across this forum , and i was impressed the way it was run , clean, respectful , no name calling ,A professionally run forum where people can come and get some help without being insulted ,,So i decided to stick around , I still peep in another forum from time to time,,,, but whenever time allows me , this is the forum for me , and It would be so even if i was not a Moderator here ..

Wheelbroker, Sir-Nasty and the rest of the Administrators have done and continue to do a great job to make sure that this forum stays as one of the top Accord form on the net ..

 

You reallyhit on something, desert.

The HAF does indeed seem to be unique in that even when the occasional controversial political topic arises in the "Off Topic" forum, somehow peoplecontinue to beremarkably polite.

Of course, I don't know how much censorship takes place in the background, so maybereality is quite different than what finally makes it to my screen.(Does it require a lot of censorship, admins and moderators?)

I'd like tothink thatit must have to do with a previously established pattern of mutual helping. It isnearly impossibleto insult someone, or resort to name-calling, if that person has helped you out, or tried to help you out, in the past. Andit seems to be understood by all at the HAFthat if you engage in that behavior, it will lower and damage the experience here on this site.

In short, themembers ofthe HAFhold their tongues, and (if that really is the case without censorship)that is quite something in the internet world.

Anyway, as far as I can tell, the most awful thing I've seen anybody write aboutanother memberis to tell them to list the year of their vehicle ..... or else!

 

i like it here.....[8D]

 

its a great place to talk about our hondas...over the occasional teabag.

 

Speaking of forum trouble, does anyone other than me sometimes have to hit the "Back" button two or three times to move back to the previous page?

 

yeah. actually, i typically just pick the page i want to jump back to from the list. otherwise, it hangs. a lot. but. you deal.

 

http: / / pagead2.googlesyndication .com comes up in the list as last page. This forwards you to where you were, etc... Annoying. It must be related to ads, after all the site has to pay for itself somehow.

I've gotten in the habit of looking at the list rather than just clicking 'back'.

 

ive noticed that too...but only very recently...ah well.
