Moderators

[Texas_Camper]

When I found the TM factory website, I became interested in TMs. I found a one year old model on an non-TM dealers lot. I bought it and then discovered this forum. I learned a lot from it.
As my knowledge and skill grew, I began to freely and cheerfully help others, mostly newbies. I am certain that because of me, there are many happy TMers out there today.
There was a time when the question was asked "Why is there so much porn on this site?" The moderators, INCLUDING ME were already at work on this. We, INCLUDING ME have permanently banned posters with names like !PHARMACY, angypussy, BestFilms, viagraxx, DealXXX and many others. We finally got it stopped. Very few on this forum knew this.
Then we've had hackers, which we, INCLUDING ME, stopped. Some kept coming back, but now they're also history. Again, very few on this forum knew this.
We had one young salesman from a TM dealer post who boasted that his posts were none of our business and we couldn't do anything about it.
He too is now gone. Very few on this forum knew this.
It is hard for most to realize what a good forum this was, without commercial ads and sales types posting and pming. But without good moderation, I can assure you it would be a total mess.
And now we have seen what can happen without good moderation.
At one time, you could look at my profile and see where I had over 3.100 posts since November, 2002. Now there are only 7 left. I've removed all the others.

Now Bill has chosen to close some threads and go running to Chris.

I'll make it easy for you Bill.

I'll let you have it all. You won't have to pm me again and tell me not to start a thread on the joys of child rape. I don't know where you got that from. You know (or should know after all the years we've worked together) better.

So when you do contact Chris, just tell him you can run this forum all by yourself. At one time we had 4 moderators, then it dwindled down to 2.
Now you've got it all by yourself. I QUIT AS MODERATOR AND WILL NEVER LOG ONTO THIS FORUM AGAIN.

I may keep my TM or I may sell it, who knows. But whatever rig I have, I will continue to fly the flag and display my sign "Texas_Camper". You can't take that away from me.

So if you do see me somewhere on the road or in a campground, my advice would be to just keep on trucking.

And to all of the 2,542 members who read this forum I leave you the forum to post as you see fit.
