Seems someone could not follow that second part over on the other place.

The ensuing argument over implementing what amounts to the same policy you've had here for a long time (posts can not be edited or deleted after, IIRC, 24 hours) led to the institution of the new TOS.

In case you were wondering.

To anyone not following the whole mess (and therefore for whom the above is gibberish): Move along, nothing to see here. These are not the droids™ you're looking for.

Sean,

I'll bite, what's TOS?
(You can't delete after 0 hours here!)

As we well know, posting profanity doesn't take talent or qualifications. Unfortunately, Catch-22 applies here also, (if you don't know enough not to, you're not smart enough to know not to!)
Regards,
George

Sorry, "Terms Of Service." AKA "user agreement" or whatever you want to call it; in the industry they are often all generically referred to as "TOS."

Seems simple to me, we're all guests, if the host doesn't like what we do, action will be taken.

Too bad for the offending party,

Job done, long ago.

happy coaching!

The other board was a good site when Mike had it. The new owners have ran it into the ground and destroyed the magazine as well. Let them rot, it's more than they deserve!

I would be curious to know what you believe the new owners have done to run the other board into the ground. I am not disputing what you say but I am curious.

larry, cool it, we don't talk like that here.

The other board may do as they please, we may politely vote with our feet, as we feel led to do.

On here, let's talk buses and leave the rest to the vast reaches of the internet?

happy coaching!

Both sites are great! How great depends on the mood of those posting at the time of your visit.

The new TOS was just a clarification. Nothing changed as far as being able to use the forum.

Just goes to show you can't please everyone. . . .

Dang Larry! I thought the opposite. I let my subscription expire several years ago when the repeat centerfolds and articles kept showing up. I met Mike Sullivan at Jacks rally and reupped with the mag. He said their goal was to get back to the 75 pages it was in the hey day. Its a worthy endeavor and i am glad they are trying, and keeping it afloat. It not easy taking the time and effort to write articles but i appreciate the ones that do. I really miss George Myers Coach Bulletin. It had lots of info. Can you imagine if we only had one "store" to go too? Anybody miss their local stores when Home Cheepo sets up camp? But of course this board is the best in my opinion. I can vote, for instance! The other board does/did have more drama tho.

Larry, you said, "The other board was a good site when Mike had it. The new owners have ran it into the ground and destroyed the magazine as well. Let them rot, it's more than they deserve!"

I have yet to figure out why there are folks on this board that bash the other one!
Each is good.
As to the mag and forum being run into the ground...I think it's better and getting better every month!

Larry,

Dunno why you took my comment to lead off this thread that was purely and honestly tongue in cheek and had to go all nasty about it. BCM is the leader in this field and likely always will be and I have no problem with that at all.

Frankly, the powers that be over there felt it necessary to drop in a caveat so as to protect themselves in the event of some potential liability issue and I support that kind of CYA action.

Of course, it doesn't mean we can't poke a little fun at them in the process, though. We're all trying and we're all having a good time. When that stops, this should stop too.

'Til then, I'm having a riot. And I love you being here. And in case you hadn't noticed, the last two sentences are related.

Yee-haww!

Ian
