Not to Re- Open a Closed Wound or Anything (What??), but...

A General Discussion forum for cars and other topics, and a great place to introduce yourself if you are new to NICO!

A slip of AZHitman's tongue...Quote »Moderating such a beast (out of the goodness of our hearts) was just too much.[/quote] I just got a brilliant idea... I really miss The Ring, so I have a suggestion... whaddaya say we re- open it and ask for a few volunteers (like me) to help mod the ring, since it sounds like the main problem was the overwhelming work load. Not trying to start a ruckus here, just kinda voicing my ideas.

-Doug

P.S. Hey, Hitman, does my changing my avitar mean nothing to you? I figured it was worth a few brownie points.

LOL - You guys are funny as hell. Doug, that avatar thing will pay off - trust me. I got your back from here on out.

Stoney, you have to be able to take down the HITMAN (or Dees) to be a Ring Mod... It ain't happenin'. But we're getting older, and we won't be bulletproof forever. :D

Check my post (The Ring - by Tino) in this forum about this - I appreciate all the ideas, but no can do. Realistically, it has a lot to do with the site creator and his vision for NICO. I know all of you can appreciate that.

In all seriousness, I really do appreciate you guys being straight up AND all your backup - sometimes it's no fun being the "bad guy", so it means a lot to me.

OK enough mushy stuff - You basturds get back to work/school so maybe you can afford to "trade up" out of WetTurdVille. :D

hey get, he didnt mean it mean.:angel

We <do> pay attention to what u guys post.It's just that the old ring had proven itself such a problem feelings were hurt, and its atmosphere was spilling over into otehr forums.

Maybe in a couple of years we might take anotehr shot at it.

Fred...:)

PS: I will soon post a poll on a somewhat related issue

Thanks Hitman, it's always good to have a big guy with a crowbar on your side.

*Sigh*, now I have nothing to do but sit here and wait to see what Fred's mystery poll will be about. Hmmmmm...

"it has a lot to do with the site creator and his vision for NICO."

DOH forgot about that , im takeing back everything i said , forgot about that deal ....

i can understand the dude , if i was him id be the same way , this thing needs to stay marketable and appeal to a wide audiance to stay somewhat intersting and genreate traffic , also needs to stay marketable to get sponsors on board to improve this thing , like bandwith issues and whathaveyou

oh and the bandwith it might soak up , after that last lockouts due to bandwith id hate to have that again over some things that go on in the ring that are actually on a non important deal

hitman , i could take you anyday , problem is is that heart you got , i dont wanna do anything to shock it , wouldnt want your wife to find you stiff for once :D

dees on the other hand , im not worthy

personally, although i never really posted in The Ring except once, i think that was the only thing that kept this board even mildly interesting. :boring

it's a shame now, i rarely visit this board, it just ain't funny anymore now that The Ring is gone. And a lot of threads are repeats or have old themes. Don't get me wrong, the threads don't have to be insultingly-controversial, random funiness is just as good!

I gotta agree too. No, not making fun of Sky's Honda driving boyfriend , but missing the ring. Dees in the Ring was worth the price of admission.

Very true. I'm one of the few mods who misses the guy. Talked with him off-line a few times, and he's pretty cool when he's serious as well.

Dees, if you're lurkin', wassup!
