    Wasn’t me who reply banned you. Sorry to disappoint.

    Now, we don’t see everything and can’t be in every thread and see every post. Someone pointed it out to the mods and someone else acted on it. I tried to make light of it with my post which I changed and then stepped away for 3 days like I said I would.

    I normally just delete posts deemed inappropriate or questionable and move on.

    As for the hatred. It is seriously misplaced and tired. You honestly can’t believe we are solely after AZ. We get the same rhetoric from NJ, SoCal, AZ, Texas on occasion. Shit, you name it, we’ve probably pissed off 1/2 the region threads and they believe we are after them. It’s not a conspiracy or we are out to get anyone. Stuff gets posted. It gets reported. We react. That’s how it works.

    Also, @OnePuttBlunder just a suggestion but you could start a chat with staff thread to ask the same question instead of tagging me, calling me out and the tagging tcbob.

    First what hatred? I didn't call anyone names or slurs etc. If it wasn't you fine it was the logical deduction given the immediate reply and follow up.

    My main gripe is how do we know what's right what's not when we're not given an explanation or warning and what we post is no different than hundreds or more of others

    Let’s start here.

    Keep it SFW. If your boss, wife, grandma, gf, bf, life partner, etc would question it, don’t post it here. Keep that shit in group texts or Facebook chats.

    Other regions and threads get the same treatment. Its no different in AZBS. Reply ban is better than full ban. Hell, I learned my lesson after getting banned last year.

    If you don’t like the rules, join a Facebook group. I’ve wandered over to “greener pastures”, but here I am, I always came back to TW. Overall it’s a great place. I’ve met some wonderful people and had some awesome trips/memories with TW people all over the country. The good outweighs the bad here.

    We need less complaining and more wheeling.

    The 85 is getting flexy with its gender reassignment surgery.

    Funny thing is we do wheel a lot on sundays. Can invite you next time. Dirt therapy is one of the best therapies.

    Key words there are "So I don't know and if there's". I'm not accusing anyone of anything.

    The main point of my complaint the hypocrisy is the one part that keeps getting overlooked. If something is commonly accepted in one section why am I getting reply banned for it in another?

    The entire thing could have and should have been handled way better.

    And I didn't feel the need to start a PM with a mod because they didn't feel the need to start one with me giving me an explanation.

    If we can't have an open discussion about it the same thing is just going to keep repeating itself and the cycle of anger and misplaced blame continues.

    thanks for the info, I really appreciate it. Insurance and fairness might be an oxymoron.

    I solely agree with this about how it was handled. Its one thing when a member who constantly tries the community to pull stuff and then gets the hammer for a little bit, but for an honest guy that up until this incident finds out the hard way that that content is no longer acceptable without a preemptive warning is a little disrespectful. As said before, either make it a new standard and revise the laws and make this place as uber PC as possible or allow it to be. To invite this grey area of where some things can exist depending on the thread while others are shunned when repeating without warning tells me TW may need to revisit their policies with new updates for better or worse.

    As far as the climate amongst TW, among my crew ranging from the socal, AZ, VA, spots on the east coast, have felt the political climate change. Incidents such as these have become more apparent and I know of a few who have had similar treatment in their bans with little to no provocation and/or warning. It really is not hard to see if you have been here a year or so to recognize how much things have changed. Hence why folks are seeking places elsewhere when it suits them.

    Sorry if this is a little constructive, but some things as this should be brought to light.
