jimmy's marine service and arc tec marine

I wanted to let everyone know that both of these guys have been banned from the site. In their latest posts they broke the forum rules by attacking other members of the site and using profanity. I did not want to ban them because both are very knowledgable in what they do and have contributed to the site, but enough is enough. I've held out long enough. Now lets get back to talking about Grady White boats!!

I understand the rationale, but what a resource of knowledge to loose.

I agree, but there comes a time....I wish you could have disagreed, or discussed, an issue with Jimmy, without being belittled or called names.

 

['84Offshore]

I belong to another forum and I think this same type of practice should be enforced there also...........

 

[mronzo]

Seafarer228G,
I appreciate you taking action on this issue. An honest disagreement and a healthy debate on a topic are always useful. Immaturity and name calling add nothing to the discussion.
We all participate on this forum to learn from our friends experiences and knowledge. When we occasionally say things that are inaccurate or mistaken our fellow owners enlighten us as to our mistake and we learn from it. Any one who cannot tolerate a viewpoint other than their own should be banned, especially when they allow their aggressive behavior to over rule their good judgement and this forum's sense of decorum. This forum is a learning and help resource, not a bully pulpit.

 

[mronzo]

That kind of stuff again huh Mullet?
I got invited to his place for a beating too! :roll:

He had a lot of good info but the young man wasn't a
" Grady-White Enthusiast " as I have pointed out here
in the past.

Ba bye.

 

[CJBROWN]

Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.

I usually steer clear of posters who resort to this nonsense....and have - at times - been forced to defend a member on this, and that other forum some of us frequent.

That said...thank you Seafarer...its about time.

 

[Megabyte]

Thank you.

 

[Scrounger]

Thank you.

 

[Anonymous]

Yes.

I guess web sites always have drama queens, but an enthusiast site like this ought to be for actual owners of the product, in this case GWs.

This may be a good thing. I think posts will be more prolific if there is not an expert to cross examine all posts. Not much fun with that.

Fellow owner advice is what members want in a site like this.


Thans to the mods for keeping the board in operation.

 

[Capt Bill]

Thank you, Admin. This is long overdue.

 

[Amigo]

I'm with you on that decision.

Sad you had to do it, but it was more their choice than yours.
