What have I been asking for?

A fricken hair cut?

Of course a vote is required.

Or should we have a committee meeting to decide if we should vote on whether we need a vote...

I couldn't care less. Dub's a jerk, but I haven't seen him abuse his mod power.

This is ridiculous.

If we can't moderate threads we want to read and post in, nothing would get done.

its clear the members want a vote

why don't the mods want a vote?

why are members wishes being ignored


you've all said "its a mods job", in response to that we have said then take the job away from him

why aren't you listening?

Since I've been a member dubstyle has been an obvious right winger. He even made a thread about his pride in being a neocon and I don't think he gives a rats ass about any pot related issue. The idea of him being a mod on this site is absurd. I don't care if he doesn't abuse his mod powers, whatever the fuck those might be. I can't understand why he would even be considered to be a mod in the first place.

thats pretty much how i feel. - dub doesnt even like pot or care about the issues related to cannabis.

what qualifies him to be mod of p&a or any other forum? - there are some pretty shitty choices for mods on here, but dub is by far the worst.

Apparently 'volunteering' is all it takes to become a mod.

All right I have one more question before i make a poll in feed back..

Since we are going to handle this by a public poll from the members, I think we should also have a public poll for those members who others have complained so much about..

If we poll for dub, Then we have to poll for GH Prophit saddam, and stoneric, being able to stay at yahooka..

The complaints have been overwellming on ya'll as well over the years..
Even the last year with Hippies constant name calling and putting down everyone on the board as being of less of a person than he. And the people of the US being the cause of every ones problems...
Saddams constant videos and stuff in every ones threads.. members have gripped and wanted you gone for a long time..

And stoneric isn't with out people being tired of being called names and the discussions being turned towards members instead of being kept on topic...


If a poll is what ya'll demand, then Polls are what will be done.. I will go with the votwe of the members for all involved...

All you have to do is get 5 people to say they want a poll for dubs removal!!!

This is what it comes down to...

Don't forget to include yourself in the poll then, chump.


NO ONE has asked that dub be banned, just that he lose his moderation privelages.


Let's not turn this into something it is not.

I asked yesterday if this guy was able to have a discussion without threats, this is where we arrive at again.

If the regular posters of A&P want dub to be removed as a moderator by successful vote, then we have to put our entire membership priveleges on the line, meanwhile dub gets to stay as a member even after everybody that dislikes him as a mod is voted off the island....

How fucking absurd and what an incredible abuse of power.

All we have asked for is the right to say who we feel we respect enough as a peer to have moderate our discussions, and now you're directly threatening my membership.

Let's not turn this into something it is not.

When the admins and mods have come up with a solution and a few members don't think we are doing our jobs, then we have to go another step further.. We have to listen to the people of the board.. Well if we listen to 3 or 4 in A&P then we have to listen to all those who have constantly asked that that you GH and stoneric to be banned.. I can't listen to you three with out listening to the rest of the board.. Ya;ll started this and i have to go all the way if the mods/admins decissions aren't good enough for you..

Now as far as I go.. When i leave, this site will go to hell.. I am the only one who keeps the site afloat with the exception of testclear who doesn't come around much at all.. The only reason that any thing gets done for the board on a daily basis is because of me.. I''l leave on out the door and you can pretty much be guaranteed the site won't open the next time you come here.. Still want me gone?
