munkee Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 (edited) Ok i could have taken this up with either of the admins or mods. But its actually taking the piss now. Right so what am i on about hmm lets think.. ahh yes my f**king signature. I support Tartybikes ( notice thats not a link so this isnt advertising before you go and delete it) so i have the company name in my signature. This wasnt always true, before i had a products list as mr porter and all the other select, mersey etc people have. However this was edited daily and at some points the name of the company was changed to select bikes. Not pointing any fingers but i know its going to be one of the admins as both mods wouldnt stoop to such stupiditly levels. Now im not going to be a complete dick and get myself a nice ban but my sig has been edited constantly for nearly a year. It was in the exact same format at the select bikes crew one but mine got edited every time. Its got to the point im not even allowed tartybikes in my sig on a medium font size setting. If your going to enforce "the rules" which by the way guys.. in the guidlines still dont exist. Then do it for everyone.. because this is taking the f**king piss now. Leave my stuff alone its up to me what i have in my signature. I'd like some freedom of speech. PS: ignore all posts by snappel and anything with MR/MRS infront... as they clearly cant contribute to a thread to save their lives.

munkee Posted October 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 is snappel always like that? I'd only just noticed... anyways...there's always going to be some fierce rivalry here..both shops sell alot of the same stuff :P adam Its not the rivalry, its not the shops. Its the fact that clearly either danny or tom are being biased towards some shops while not to others. There has been talk before questioning mr reads moderating ability by certain members on the forum (using his mod powers for bad things, which never ever ever have happened). Infact when i heard about these accusations i found it a complete f**king disgrace to be honest. But now it seems.. someone is f**king about, using their powers to do bad ( in a non super hero way ). I just simply want to know who it is and for them to explain to me why they arent enforcing the same rules for everyone on this forum. It seems fine for steve to have his booster reports all over the forum and for companies to post direct links to their products.. but then sometimes it seems its not ok to do this? For example the toxsin mod? (i think i got htis right) basically everyone is shitting theirselves over posting a pic incase its classed as advertising... This place has really gone down the shitter lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Have tartybikes in your signature by all means. It just doesnt have to be in size 1000000. Leave it in a reasonable size and it wont get edited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 for them to explain to me why they arent enforcing the same rules for everyone on this forum. It is a fun question, isn't it. Answers would be fun :P For example the toxsin mod? (i think i got htis right) basically everyone is shitting theirselves over posting a pic incase its classed as advertising... This place has really gone down the shitter lately. Don't seem to remember any mods/admin saying that they'd close it? Perhaps it's just Adam over-reacting after being told off for blatant advertising before, which is totally different to posting a pic of a frame up that people are asking for? I guess you could say that that thread's advertising, but I'd suggest that perhaps mods/admin were more royally f**ked off with Adam (not TB.co.uk...) going into people's FS threads and trying to get them to buy some new Toxsin forks or some other product from Merseytrials, etc. Ah well, no-one's stopped him posting up a pic of the mod, have they? No. He even said himself he didn't want to post pictures 'til it was finished? Made reference to something like "I want to see people's apple pies pop out of their heads hwen they see the finished thing"? Or is this just another example (like everything) of mods/admin being in the wrong here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munkee Posted October 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Have tartybikes in your signature by all means. It just doesnt have to be in size 1000000. Leave it in a reasonable size and it wont get edited. Explain this then: Why was it edited every time i had a products list as mr sexy porters? Why was it changed to say select bikes? Why am i only allowed to have tartybikes and not a list? Why have the sig editor allow it to go to 10000000000000000? I figured since im not allowed a list ill just make the one word bigger.. since thats changing nothing but the size. I cant have anything else in my sig anyways because my word count limit has been lowered so yay for me. Its simple.. im just asking questions as to why me and no one else.

Danny Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 on a medium font size setting. Your idea of medium is obvously different to mine. Its not just you. I have been editing out size tags from peoples signatures for months. I cant have anything else in my sig anyways because my word count limit has been lowered Number of characters is exactley the same for everyone.

RicH_87 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 obviously missed one whoever is editing this dudes sig, just drop it and stop being a penis, and spacemunkee, keep it small. problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Why have the sig editor allow it to go to 10000000000000000? Because its either allow all bbcode or none. Maybe we should just disable it completely. Why was it changed to say select bikes? I never knew about that but all i can say is that wasnt me.

Mark W Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 obviously missed one whoever is editing this dudes sig, just drop it and stop being a penis, and spacemunkee, keep it small. problem solved. Congratulations for Rich for having the intelligence to flag up people's signatures if they have a grievance with them. In that there's only usually 4 mod/admin online in total at any one time, and 8000+ registered members, we're going to miss some. That's pretty obvious. So if you've got a massive bee in your bonnet about people's sigs, PM/Report one of the mods/admin... I never knew about that but all i can say is that wasnt me. Same here?

stubert Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 imo the limit should be set to a single line of a single size of txt. but allow all other features like bold, italic etc and colours. that way people can keep things original mark it says on the front page We have 3663 registered members maybe i dont see other members or somthing....... :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 You're member #7744, and there are many more who have joined after you... Either way, 4 mods doing 3663 members? Bit of a tall order to expect us to get them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Posted October 21, 2005 Report Share Posted October 21, 2005 The best solution is for you to leave your sig no bigger than 1 size above standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
