I think that is unprofessional, but I guess you are the admin (or special mods) so you can say whatever you want. ;)

The issue has never been whether or not people belong to more than one board. I think I'm a member of 5 or 6 myself The issue is people using S2K to advertise and solicit members for another board. AEPP knew that sending mass unsolicited PM's was considered SPAM and was against the rules. He chose to disregard the rules of the board and paid the price. If someone isn't happy posting here then I recommend they go find a place where they are. The most important thing is that they get the information they need when they need it.


Hi mr admin. I'd just like to say i agree on most of what your sayin, but you must admit, this isn't a fun topic to be going on and on about. Like wx247 I think its time we move on and forget about this.

You don't find irony there? On the other point you are right. I'm the co-owner of this board so I can say exactly what I want to say. However, I challenge you to find one of my posts that doesn't follow the board's rules. You do have around 17,000 to pick from. ;-)

I am not saying that what you said violated rules, but rather, was unprofessional. Just my opinion... nothing less, nothing more. I thought with these new changes we were allowed to express our opinion. ;)

Your post is still there, Garrett. :) You were allowed to express it. CWMRO has been using Storm2k to spam hundreds of our members and he still wished them luck with their board. I thought that was quite generous.

Your post is still here and you're entitled to your opinion. What I think is funny is that one day we're not communicating enough and the other it's "unprofessional" to leave a thread open like this. I also find it curious that you haven't criticized the people that started the problem to begin with but that's just my opinion.

You deleted Garrets post and he said nothing that broke the rules. I dont even know who AEPP is but the thread at CMWRO about this was locked and CMWRO is dropping the subject why cant you? AEPP if he did send 300 PM's deserves to be banned but does the actions of one make CMWRO a bad site? Dont judge CMWRO because of one bad apple please.

I cant believe people are berating Gerret via PM on this site that is just wrong and not nice.. Why dont you guys lock this thread and start acting more profesional. Please.

Edit: I am talking about Garrets post that was below your last post not his other posts.

Just from what some are saying comes off as judgement to me. Anyways what is AEPP's IP? I can report him to the staff at CMWRO and they can find out who was doing this.

But I was berated via pm, being called immature, just like before.

I am not saying what CWMRO was right... but I do think it has been handled poorly. But that is ok. The admin (Marshall, Chad, Kelly, and David... oops :wink: ) can take care of things.

Well, this will probably ban me. Sorry guys. I am just sorry this place has come to this. I loved this site. What a sham it has become. :( (



I'm just a moderator, Garrett. Do you have some information you would like to share with the rest of us?

If you have a problem with me, let's hear it. I've done the best job I could here and have given my all. I love Storm2k! I'm quite aware of a few disgruntled people who love drama though. No news there.
