Mark, you flat out said you did not delete it.

The way I see it, both of you are nothing if not our allies here.

If I am not mistaken, either of you gentlemen would be able to find out effortlessly who deleted it. Would both of you please find out who was responsible, contact him, and direct him to this thread?
it just is not a big deal, that I would even worry about it. So tracing down who deleted or closed it is just not worth the time. It was just a BS thread anyway with out any real technical or societal references that would make it something that the average member could reference in helping them with their RX-7 or rotary powered vehicle.

Plus I stand behind the moderator staff here. Hell a good 25% of them I probably put in place. I may not always agree with the stand of an individual, but I won't cross or go behind another mods back. If he or she is a real screw up, then the admins will get together and discuss the issue.

Like Mark said. . . its doesn't really matter now. For the one who closed it..., he has good weeks and bad weeks. Its not his fault, so just bare with him during those down times.
I pay a lot of attention to the mannerisms/personalities of every member here, mods included. . . This whole site is like a psychological/sociological experiment. . . Its quite interesting to study.

Study this big boy


Seriously though, this issue needs to be laid to rest immediately if not sooner and the only way that is going to happen is if we all just put it behind us. Forgiveness and understanding is essential to any family

Why don't you just come out and say who the hell your talking about Mr. Freud.

I'm going to bet your psycho-analytical babble is wrong and you really have no idea who closed the thread. Again as Mark stated, it's not really an issue any longer.

I find it perplexing that some of you think you know what goes on... when you really have no idea.




PS - If your playing along at home... it wasn't me.

Listen. . . Like everyone has said throughout the entire thread, the issue is no longer relevant. You goading me to give a name is absurd. PM is in the works. I will explain to the best of my abilities what I thought.

Just ******* stop it! Both of you! EVERYONE!!!! For ***** sake everybody has bitched and moaned about this being extremely childish and immature yet you're only contributing to the mess! I'm guilty too I will admit it! Please just stop. Some of you know just how much I care about all of you and the other people here others don't, it really hurts me to see you guys at each others throats over petty squabbles. No I'm not going to threaten to leave, or stop talking to you guys or anything else ridiculous like that. I'm asking you as a friend to just please please stop all of this, nobody needs this and nobody wants it. Please...

This thread was started in the genuine quest for knowledge on a certian aspect. that was given and now we/the people involved have reached a conclusion. Silence is also an answer.

1)Baw is moving... no sense in causing problems and we arent storming out like children... I respect the RX7club and dont want to cause problems. so that being said we will take the problem to where it isnt one. Rx7 club stays ok... we stay ok and still participate where we see fit.

2)Mods and admins here... for everyone involved in this issue, thanks. No hard feelings. It was silly to begin with and i dont believe in making a big deal over nothing.

3)please dont use my thread as a way to place angst towards people you have unresolved issues with. take it to PMs

This site is still ok in my book but i think a parting is in order for the BAW set to keep things from turning ugly. we recieved priviledges 'cause i thought we earned it and it was generally accepted. If that was or was not the case it doesnt matter anymore and past issues are done. see you one the flip side or in the around here form time to time.

Well, I have to agree. My only focus here was to accommodate what the members wanted. When the BAW threads threatened the very hardware the site was hosted on, I didn't shut them down, I found a way to accommodate. If it were me I'd never close the BAW, no matter what ugly turn it took, I would have found a way to accommodate. But now that Internet Brands has decided to boot me from Admin duty, it makes me wonder if my influence is lost. BAW is a 7club institution!

BAW being shut down had nothing to do with IB in any shape or form.

the more we (the members) are kept in the dark, the more we (the members) will come to our own conclusions. It's time for the few who know all, to explain to the many who don't.

If everything is so above board, then why all the secrecy?

Ryan, we've all done things we regret, believed things people told us that were lies. No problems man, grab a beer from the fridge and lets enjoy the day.

**** started getting weird before he lost his admin status, and we all know it. I'm looking for the reason that IB took away his admin status.
