We have our Free For All board, join us!!!

[Iron Indian]

I figured i'd post this since this board will most likely not be advirtised here...

Right out of the horses mouth...

I setup a no rules forum for people wishing to look at porn, talk about your ex girlfriends etc. Only rules are no kiddy porn, or anything else against the law. You have to join a group for the forum to be visable. this is in your user proffile

Pontiac Grand Prix Forums : Grandprix

Thanks alot Chance for being open minded and letting us have this board. You're A ok in my book. See ya guys there!

TTT

I don't think too many people were following that thread, not too many of us are in there. I think mostly the people who want to be there are.
Maybe if it wasn't hidden but they would have to join to get in, does that make any sense?

[Iron Indian]

I agree, it shouldn't be so hidden, at least have a spot for it then people can choose to go or not.

Oh well, i'm enjoying the new board so far, Its more relaxing IMO....

[kingd44]

[kingd44]

[UR LOSN]

Cause it's not.......it's a free for all.....I'm not trying to be rude but if you don't like it don't go there.
Several of us (adults) wanted a private forum where we could feel free to post almost anything we felt like without anyone b*tching about something being inappropriate for the public forum. This is also an area where we don't have to worry about threads getting locked because someone doesn't approve of the topic.
There are male and female members there and we post what we feel like posting and BTW it's not all porn... if it is tagged NWS or NSFW then it's a clue.
You have to join the group to be allowed in.....If you don't feel comfortable there then don't go in.
Like I said it's a free for all....enter at your own risk.

[Quicklynx]

I know what the section is. It needs no explaining. I just feel it degrades the site a bit in general. Whether you have to join or not, the site is still sponsoring it.

I could care less what gets posted. I'm not some guy that's never been exposed to anything.

I just don't see a great need for this site to be supporting pornographic images, racism, or whatever else happens in it whether it is optional to join or not.

[blueguy]

Heh...joined

K...so why even bring the matter up?
If you could care less then don't b*tch about it.
Another thing.......some members including myself were wanting a section like the "Free for All" so, it just didn't appear for no good reason.
If you would have been following the thread a little more closely then you could of voiced your oppinion then but the only posting you made to that thread was you would like to see a "Sightings" section.
Do you visit CGP and read some of the crap there?

I could care less what gets posted because porn and racist remarks don't offend me, but you can't deny the fact it could offend some people. Therefore they can join at their own risk. I do like that part.

I know the thread you are talking about as I am subscribed to it. Yes, I know many people wanted it.

Yes, I am a member of CGP but I pretty much have only posted in the classifieds and the eastern members section because you can put "sightings" in there. You mention CGP and the things that are said on there, yet GPF, who so fondly built itself around the saying "we are not the other site" now is one step closer to being like it.

To be honest I don't want this to turn into some big argument. Obviously the Mods know what they're doing, and obviously enough people are for this, but you are simply not getting the point I made and twisting my words a bit. It may be my fault as it's hard to interpret what someone says in a text setting sometimes. Basically, I never said I was against a forum like this, just more so against GPF condoning it.

I have a very diverse group of friends. I live in Maryland so it's hard not to, haha. We crack racist jokes on each other all the time. We bust each others balls so hard our faces turns red in anger, then we just say "I'm just f-ing with ya, don't need a get angry!" Typical guy humor.

I'm not going to lie, but I'm quite shocked Synthetic did allow it.

Most of us on here are adults, but there are plenty who are not. Hopefully everyone can be adults in the section. I just fear something will get said and someone will get offended, say something, get flamed for them saying something in the anything goes section, and it then dragging over onto the rest of the forum and into others peoples threads. It's already happened between 2 members. Now if they both post on the same thread they make comments about each other because they got into it on another thread.

Good Luck with the section. I hope it works out as planned for you all.

[dstout]

I don't know who owns this board/forum it wasn't Synthetic who said he made the section it was Rocket.
I don't know what has gone from one section to another but anything in the Free for All section should stay there and not be let out on the rest of the forum.
People have to use some discretion when they post there and use good judgment and I think everyone has done so so far.
When you say GPF is one step closer to CGP I would have to strongly disagree with you on that statement. I think one of the reasons the private section was created was to prevent this forum from becoming a CGP and to keep the house tidy.
I don't see how it could hurt the forum I think it will only make it a better place.

[Quicklynx]

Like I said, I hope it works out and I hope it works in a positive manner. I will be skeptical but I am the kind of person open for trying things.

I see it's a user group and that is kind of nice. I may join eventually myself as I can find it quite enjoyable. I just would have been more in favor of having a separate forum away from the grandprixforum community.

I know Rocket made the section, however, I thought everything runs through Synthetic first and he gets the final decision. Maybe I'm wrong because I don't know for sure how the chain of command on this site works and who has the rights to do what.

[blueguy]

I always like the saying...

If you don't like it then don't go near it.

IIRC if they are an admin thye can do whatever they want...but Scotty can overrule them if he wanted...

[dstout]

I think it will work out alright and I think people are aware that if it gets out of hand the admins can pull the plug if they deem it necessary.
It's kind of a small group right now and if you decide to venture in you might like it.
I don't know if they could create a separate forum away from GPF, I think they would have to create another website to get that done.

Yep, you're 100% correct.

I know what the section is. It needs no explaining. I just feel it degrades the site a bit in general. Whether you have to join or not, the site is still sponsoring it.

Ok, first off SHOW ME where these racist posts are? I wanna see them, come on show me? Oh wait, you can't because there ain't any. Do some research before you start talking crap about a certain group. You have these dumbass opinions drilled into your head that no matter what anyone else says you're 100% right. Guess what, you're wrong. If I see a racist post on there, I'll report it ASAP because I don't stand for that ****. Thanks for calling all of us racist, I appreciate that.

And you say you're not sheltered, news flash, you act like you are and I believe you are. You are one of the few crying about this. You could of easily skipped this thread and not posted your bashing on here but you did and I think thats BS. Don't post your BS on here. If you don't agree with this post and don't want to be a member, shut up and move on, don't trash a thread just like you did. Thanks alot man. I'll start another thread here soon, hopefully you'll stay out of it and not screw it up for everyone else. I don't bash you, I'd appreciate you not bashing our group. Its common sense.

You mention racist remarks yet again.... shows how much you really know about this new forum.

How is a PRIVATE FREE FOR ALL BOARD a step closer to clubgp? You're an idiot if you think that does it. Its not even a public damn forum. Jeeze. This board is completely different and it still is. If anything was turning like ClubGP it was when Scotty deleting posts from people because they were accedently posted in the wrong section or whatever. That was BS IMO and I posted about that a long time ago. You take the time to delete a post but you can't move it? BS. IMO, you take the time to post a question or whatever it should be heard. But this is off topic so moving right along.

You didn't want this to turn into a big augument, yet you bash our forum on here? Ok. I guess you couldn't move along and cry about this off the board. Instread you had to ruin a perfectly good thread? Ok, I understand... I think?

You call us racist and bash our board for it, yet you admit you do that on you're own time? WOW.

And, what does SyntheticSheild have to do with allowing this forum? He doesn't OWN this board in the first place (people think he does, but he doesn't). I'm sure he was one of the ones against it no doubt, but obviously the majority overruled him. If he did infact own this forum and called ALL the shots, we wouldn't have it, I promise you. So he had NOTHING to do with this Free for all forum happening period.

Just let the forum live, and it will do fine no matter what you think. If you are talking about the Street Wolf situation, you sir don't know the whole story behind that, I can tell you that much because I've personally talked to him. It wasn't about anything said OFFENSIVE here, thats all I'll say. Its his deal, not mine.

I don't know who owns this board/forum it wasn't Synthetic who said he made the section it was Rocket.

I agree and Rocket468 (Chance) owns the board, yes.

Like I said, I hope it works out and I hope it works in a positive manner. I will be skeptical but I am the kind of person open for trying things.

I see it's a user group and that is kind of nice. I may join eventually myself as I can find it quite enjoyable. I just would have been more in favor of having a separate forum away from the grandprixforum community.

I know Rocket made the section, however, I thought everything runs through Synthetic first and he gets the final decision. Maybe I'm wrong because I don't know for sure how the chain of command on this site works and who has the rights to do what.

Why would everything have to run though Syn? It would be both of them anyway. Rocket is the owner so if anything it would have to be run buy him. But they have an admin/mod section for a reason too. I don't know the chain of command exactly, but I have an idea on how it works. If I ever have a major issue or if something goes wrong, i'm going to the main man and IMO thats Rocket. Scotty and I don't see eye to eye on damn near anything so I'd be wasting my time trying to talk to him even though he's an admin just like Chance.

I always like the saying...

If you don't like it then don't go near it.

IIRC if they are an admin thye can do whatever they want...but Scotty can overrule them if he wanted...

I wish some people would get that quote...

Chance and Scotty are both Admins, i'm sure theres more to it than overruling each other. But I don't really care either, it is what it is and however it is works, it works and all of out admins and mods (yes i'm saying Scotty too) do a good job IMO and thats all I care about. No, i'm not being a suck ass, thats a compliment to our brass.

Just curious who those members would be, because I have gotten into more than my fair share of arguments with people on here and have been warned But this new section is amazing, even though I don't think I have posted but when the time comes I know I can say anything I want without a big fat slap on the wrist like before.
