I, for one, would not want valuable information that can benefit the CA community to be erased. The fact of the matter is that widely-held, proven principles need not be ignored for any reason.

We all have things to learn; censorship of information is ineffective.

Understood! But if you're referring to the little issue with a member that is BANNED and using back doors to come in here and specifically call someone out, is not going to happen. I didn't erase his little write-up or whatever he said that you guys may have deemed "valuable", he didn't follow the rules, disrespected the NICO forums by telling the owner basically that he can't be kept off this forum. He might be right, but if you're not wanted, why stick around; hence the reason why anything he posts here is irrelevant. He didn't play by the rules.........He got served. If you think he has valuable information, get his email address and correspond with him that way. But as for him illegally being on this forum Deletionis our best weapon. For the time it takes him to type, it will be deleted without even being read in a split second. I am done with this kid and if you can't understand where I'm coming from, I can't make you.

Dude, if any member attracted the attention of an administrator, super mod or mod, and even the owner had to get down and dirty with a member, a line must be drawn. There are individuals in place to help keep order around here and not to be the big bad man policing this forum. I'm no better than any of you. I've been just a regular member of decent forums in the past and I've never disrespected those who have been delegated to oversee a particular forum. I can't speak for others, but I do know the guys in the CA forum will agree, I don't screw with anyone that doesn't deserve it. And at least I do warn you

I removed the individual in question.

Anyone has an issue with it, I'm easy to find.

For what it's worth, mods don't have the authority to ban folks.

Is that the kind of individual you want sharing a forum with you. How can you teach when you're being disruptive?

How can you learn from an individual who's being disruptive and disrespectful?

I happen to think the majority of you guys are cool and I would hope that you that that majority is mature enough to differentiate between right and wrong.

LoL at this situation. It is childish, no one is learning from this character. It was discussed previously in the last incident and he was banned! Now how in the world did this "Wonderful Informative" young man creep back into the forums without permission?" His information is irrelevant...Hasn't helped me..Need I say more?

End of Discussion!

as if Dee really needs it, a little defense for him, what someone doesnt understand is that by tuning in conditions that the car is normally run, you have a certain degree of safety, im not denying that running at those temps may have a wall wetting affect, (im not very good at tuning, but i work for a very well known tuner with 30+ yrs expierence) but if his tuning takes this into account, he wont really have a leaning issue, more of a running rich issue when the temps start to go up because of the excess fuel evaporating off the walls. just because boost boy is not running at max efficiency doesnt mean he cant make power, yea, he might be able to make more power at 180-200, but thats his decision and just because this other individual doesnt agree with it and decides to start attacking him for his choices doesnt seem right and i agree with the actions taken against such individual. it doesnt matter that Dee is a mod, if this had happen to anyone i think it would have had the same result.

My post is centered around information. Nothing more. I enjoy ingesting it, especially when I can apply such things.

Simply put, the other issue is irrelevant.

Great point and it fits my criteria. I don't want my car on edge at all times. Contrary to what this kid posted about melting pistons, he is wrong because I haven't melted a piston yet, since I've been tuning with a standalone. Everyday is a learning curve and by no means am I the best at it, but I am my own tuner and my style seems to work for me on the dyno and in everyday driving. Even with other cars I've tuned, they have yet to quote unquote melt a piston and seem to be well on par as far as power and performance are concerned for their application. So maybe one totally took out of text, the way I tune my car without looking the way I tune in general. The way I tune is my business and it will stay as such. Until someone have scrolled through my parameters, measured them against the components I've chosen to use, and evelauated my car's performance in real time driving as opposed to dyno tuning, then someone would probably say "looks good to me". And as for information, there's nothing wrong with ingesting, but that kid has a corrupt has a corrupt program that need not be spread anymore.

his information seemed to help me so it was relevant to some of us. but i guess noone over here wants to learn about a new EFI system so for that we will just have to venture else where.

There won't be censorship of information.

There WILL be hell to pay if someone continues to circumvent bans AND draw attention to it by being an a$$clown.

- If you have information to share, share it.

- If your information conflicts with someone else's, get over it.

- If you can't abide the idea of someone disagreeing with you, then you're in for a rough life.

I've grown tired of threads about motor mounts and SAFC. I posted these things a long time ago, thread got erased, and wow! someone asks the same old questions. Don't delete helpful threads, and maybe the newbies will look at the previous threads, and not waste time asking the same questions. Everybody claims they're tired of this as well, why delete? only enough room for 2 pages of post?
