I don't own a Camaro, does that mean I shouldn't be here? Because I have a reason that I'm still here. And a reason to why I have stayed here for almost 2 years. C5 has tons of information on here about Camaros and other cars. But wait, I dont own a Camaro, so I have no clue why I'm here anyway. Pft.


so i joined this site over 2 years ago when i was planning on buying one. i made friends. then i decided to buy a corvette instead. now, i don't really have any intentions of buying a camaro. does that mean i should get the boot because upon coming back to talk to friends i've made here & help others out with what i do know about the car & automotive stuff in general, i find this thread and start arguing with you about liking how the mods/admins run this site? seems like i'm just stirring the pot, don' it? the kicker is that i still remain respectful to your opinion that the mods play favorites/cater to non-camaro owners. i don't call you a retard or pitch some hissy fit just to get my way. i also talk to people directly if i have a problem with them or what they're doing instead of just holding it in & complaining in other arenas about how much i don't like it (while still returning to the site).

so long as what you're saying is respectful & abides by the site guidelines, it'll most-likely stay posted. if it looks like you've just got it out for somebody or you go against the site rules, it's probably gonna get moderated. will they catch everything?? nope. are there some instances where some things are tolerated in one area & frowned upon in another? yep. the threads that are more of a "local hangout spot" are typically more lax because it's typically the same usual circle of people in there. the more visible, high-traffic areas (such as tech, troubleshooting, events, appearance, mods, etc) have to be more strict because that's where the majority of people're gonna go & get their impressions of this site. case-in-point: i'm willing to bet that 90% of the members here have no clue who Shunt is, but at least 75% of the members have looked at a custom set of wheels.

i say that to show that i believe the moderation is pretty fair & based on the environment the infraction occurred in.
