There is NO negotiation to this simple fact.

Any more personal attacks on FTE moderation team will NOT be tolerated!

Tom you owe me a phone call.
How did I attack anyone, I asked questions and they didn't get answered. We have posted links where other groups, NEST has posted PROMOTING there club gtg's and that is all we want to do. Then Tim said "some comments are not worth responding to". Which to me says he doesn't have an answer. About the Steve thread, its was locked before I could respond and I agreed after I read it because I used the business name which does violate the rules, I admit that.Now can you tell me PLEASE how other clubs can promote but we cannot. That is all I want to know....I mean this all started with a guy from the west coast coming onto the mn chapter because he trolls for anyone who says Clay (hi peter) or Riffraff (hi peter) and complained because we were looking to gets parts somewhere other than his Master, Clay (hi Peter) .

I really in all honesty do not feel like I attacked anyone and Tim if you feel that way I apologize. I just wanted to know why we cannot promote like others. We definitely wouldn't be using FTE in a bad way. Just wanted to use it the way others have, that's all......

George I will pm you my phone number since yours is burried in a butch of Pm's, Feel free to call me up till 9pm Central time tonight........

Here is a link to a moderator promoting a non-FTE sponsored website N.E.S.T. on FTE.....read the first post and tell me how that got through, also post 8 mentions the fact that it shouldn't be promoted. Jim this isn't an attack on you sir just in case you read this. The mn chapter is just being told we cannot do this ourselves, that's all....

I am done posting links........Just wanted an answer, That's all. Sorry if I offended anyone, I did apologize for the thread Steve shut down for which I was at fault for mentioning a non-fte sponsor and just wanted to use what others have (club names and GTG's) to improve our Chapter here, that's all.

Tom, I've been away for a few days so I kinda pushed this off on Tim. I won't be able to read &/or talk with anyone much until I get home from work but I will get back with you, if not tonight, tomorrow afternoon.

Well Thank you for responding Carlene I appreciate that. I am not trying to cause problems just don't understand why we were being told no for something others have already done. I will wait till I hear from you and want to thank you for your time

Ok fella's and Ladies. I have talked to Carlene and we are working on the issues at hand pertaining to this thread. I will ask nicely that we refrain from making anymore comments on this thread till a solution is made. At that time I will share it with all of you and we will make it work. Also please refrain from calling Admin's and Moderators anything other than their respected name, PERIOD....... There are better ways of getting answers than resorting to that....Any questions, you have my number and if you don't pm me.Thanks

Your fine Troy, just don't want anymore negative posts until its resolved, and just so you know this part is my idea not the moderators. We will get it resolved, they know where we stand and will talk about it. Then whatever they say is final. As my 18yo would say "it's all good" LOL
