This has been a sore subject for awhile . I agree that the Banner is kinda a huge deal , from the aspect that NEW members may get confused seeing a 4 stroke bike on a site dedicated to the 2 stroke Blaster . I don't mind the Banshee's , for 1 I have one and 2 I still think because we have a few members with them there should be a Banshee Tech section , wich may just get us a few more supporting members . I agree with punishing the troublemakers , this site has always been and I hope always will be a NON jackass positive site to be on . Not like some of the other powersports sites where every post is a cussing rant about how gay someones stuff is . This isn't the place for that , we've done a damn good job keeping it that way and yes we have a few guys that LOVE to try and start fights and be jerks , but fortunatly short term banhammer action has curtailed that. We are great when it comes to weeding out the thieves and had some success getting those shady people to make right on what they said they would do .
Lets keep this forum friendly , respectfull and a great place for the younger girls and guys to come and learn , and if a newb steps out of line we can get em back on the straight and narrow . Keep comments respectfull and offer suggestions when a new guy ( or old one ) is starting a project , but don't ridicule their ideas and use derogatory language , If you dont personally like something , keep it to yourself . If someone is truly making a mechanical mistake and you want to maybe steer them in the right direction , sure thats great , follow it up with a PM offering some extra one on one help .
