Pics of a girl on a Yamaha R6...trust me.
 
I personally don't understand what all the hoohah is about. A woman in a bikini posing on a motorcycle. Nothing offensive about it. Guy got banned from Corvette Forum for a month. A few of you know Garett and Cameo. Though I'd share, enjoy.

Cameo (pics)
Picked up a 2006 R6 a few weeks ago.

- GREAT Track bike if anyone is in the market for one.

Snapped a few pics of Cameo on the bike with her Z06 in the background.

I "Heart" Corvette forum

Story:

I post pics of Cameo over on corvetteforum

They get removed - For whatever reason.... (PG13)

One of the mods starts to bitch about me posting them.

We have a few words in public he ended on saying:

Quote:
Shut your mouth

I was told to take it to PM's

So I responded along the lines of... :

Quote:
Power Trip ?

The situtation has been taken care of by the "better" mods. And I have been in discussion with Grumpy and the pewter99. I dont understand the removal of the pictures, but I will respect the website consider this a mute subject.

So now I am guessing the pu$$y cried out to one of the admin's and got me temp banned over there.

Mod in discussion: Mr. Mojo I believe?

- Great site for information anything corvette related, but for crying out loud some of the mods and people over there need their shifters removed from their asses.

In my opinion, sometimes moderators take things (and themselves) way too seriously. I have seen my fair share of message board sites pretty nearly destroyed by the admin's poor choices in moderators. They need to be picked as carefully as you would employees you are hiring to help keep your business afloat.

And one thing I have learned is that once you ban someone, even temporarily, they will often a grudge and harbor some resentment at that treatment.......

Great pics but...you did say there was a bike and a Z in there somewhere didn't you?:D

Seriously though, sometimes mods take things too far. I understand they have a responsibility to the site and it's members but they need to dispense their judgement and authority in smaller doses sometimes. There's nothing offensive about those pics at all.

I really like the second picture where they have it all black and white while leaving Cameo in color. Nice touch.
I see nothing wrong with these pictures, either.

I think moderators should be required to memorize the definition of "moderation"........ :rolleyes:

Quote:

  1. Being within reasonable limits; not excessive or extreme: a moderate price.
  2. Not violent or subject to extremes; mild or calm; temperate: a moderate climate.
    1. Of medium or average quantity or extent.
    2. Of limited or average quality; mediocre.
  3. Opposed to radical or extreme views or measures, especially in politics or religion.

Having served previously and currently as a moderator on various sites, I've found that it's generally better to attempt to resolve any percieved issue directly with the member via PM/e-mail or by phone if you know it, rather than calling them out or embarrasing them in front of thier peers. Generally, it's the same way I treat people in an L/E situation.

A MOD should NEVER have a direct "open" confrontation with a member regarding the board rules. Take it to PM immediately. If the member refuses to work with you, then you as the moderator have the solution:lmao: No need to argue. after all, it;s not YOU (mod) thats been "violated" it;s a board rule.

Allow the member the opportunity to correct the issue so no one looses face and the admins stay happy.

The problem the the Corvetteforum is it's $$ driven.

They have paid sponsors that they depend on to help keep the site up and running. Unlike here, it's also apparently a for profit entity.

From what I read, some of the sponsors complained or blocked the forum at work due to some archiac, prudish outlook on sexuality:rolleyes:

I was also informed once that since some places might block it, causing a loss of $$, they have choosen not to have a babes section at all.
Whenever it's discussed theres always a handful (couple mods and a few others) who repeat the same old rhetoric about "porn" and being a family site?
However, if you visit certain areas and read certain threads, they're anything but PG13:hehehe: Over there, even belly buttons and bikini's are a :NoNo:

There's truly nothing objectionable about the pics you posted...nothing! Thanks for sharing them:thumbsup:

You're right though, some of the mods go overboard and take this stuff too seriously.

I know Frank (MOJO) and it just doesn't sound like him. If he did it, I'm suprised. He's usually very easy going, level headed and decent to get along with.
Some of the mods feel like any questioning of thier authority is a "challenge."

We had a minor problem on one of the sites I moderate. Unfortunately we had a couple people that simply refused to keep thier personal life drama off the site:( After several attempts to resolve it as formerly mentioned, I had to start locking and moving things. I did however, contact eah one effected and gave them an explanation of my actions. If they had a question, I tried as best I could to answer them.

There are a couple over there that seem pretty heavy handed with the lock button and get off tossing around the "banned camp" threat:rolleyes:

There are some really good folks over there, but some of the rules are just assbackward:rofl1: Thats what happens when $$'s involved:(


Now...more pics!:thumbsup:

Just for the record, this site will ALWAYS be for the members. Sponsors and advertisers are a nice perk, but it's the members that make a site. If there is ever a conflict here between sponsors and members, I will side with the members. And if I ever forget this promise, you all can show up on my doorstep and beat my ass to a bloody pulp. :ack2:

I was messing around with that feature on Photoshop yesterday. Here is a pic of a flower from a Frangipani tree (used to make Hawaiin Leis) that I have in my backyard.
