Probably not just him, it's been getting pretty nasty in there the last week or so. Good riddance if it is gone, just P's me off every time I go in there. (yeah I know, don't go in there :-))

Its not locked, its moderated. All posts get reviewed before they are activated. This is because of an unname party's (most of you know who I'm talking about) actions yesterday, which I was able to take care of rather quickly.

Once I'm able to get a resolution from his Internet provider (I've supplied them with complete logs of his activities and attempts to get around my request for him to leave), then the forum will no longer be moderated.

All other posts, for or against Ford, are still going through, unless its from one of his cronies coming in. The sign up guidelines state you cannot register with false or misleading information and you cannot post knowingly misleading information. They did both and posted with the sole intent to mislead and bait users.

Let them whine... its the reason the thread they mentioned was locked. Clutter came back and posted a ton of messages in it, sorta of an in your face flaunt at the admin. Rather than respond, I just removed them and locked the thread then got rid of him.

They obviously doesn't know when to let go. My personal feeling is to not even get involved... besides, they're advertising for FTE and we've gotten several new people posting in the FORD sections of our boards that came from there.

I agree with Ken. We can say what we want here as it is a Ford site and it should not offend anyone, because they know this is a Ford site when they come here. So if they come here and start something, they asked for it, but if we go to their site, then we are basically getting in their face and being a nuissance. I don't want to jeer them on their sites as they have a right to like their brands and even to put down Fords--just they shouldn't come here and do it.
