As this forum is for the members and owners of 300 Zd's, why can we have a say as to just what is deemed unacceptable and more importantly who should be the moderators!!!! :nono:

 

Too many of the moderators are playing god!!

 

It's time for a change!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I suppose this thread will be NUKED without explanation too??

What makes you think that????? :confused:

Matty.

How old are you Gworilla?

 

Have you tried PM'ing the Mods?!!!?

I wasn't the one who nuked it - in fact I was in the process of answering when it was nuked. :D

 

Suffice to say, Jeff didn't pay his subscription fees. This is the reason he is no longer in the Trader's section.

 

We took the action we did based on the evidence that we had at the time. If Jeff had remained a Trader, things might have worked out differently, but I'm sure you'll all agree that it's unfair for one Trader not to pay when all the others have.

 

There will always be people who rate Jeff's work - fair play and that's your opinion

There will always be people who hate Jeff's work - fair play and that's your opinion

There will always be people who side with the most vocal - fair play, even if I don't understand why.

 

The situation with Z.edworld has caused this forum more conflict that anything else put together but the upshot of it is this :

 

If you have used and are OK with Jeff's work, carry on using him

If you have used and are NOT OK with Jeff's work, use someone else

 

Jeff did not pay his subscription fee and no longer wishes to trade on this forum.

That was after he wasn't allowed to be a trader anymore and with respect to the trading on the fourm;

 

Do you blame him for all the 'crap' he had to put up with? He would answer a tech thread on here and then it would be turned round by the same usual people into a 'we hate Jeff and he's crap' thread......I've seen this more than a few times...

 

Thanks for the reply Neet! ;)

 

Matty.

Just to be clear, we have never banned or requested that Jeff no longer trade. That was his decision.

 

He was reminded to pay and did not, therefore he, like GPS who also had not paid, was suspended. GPS has since sent in a cheque for their Trader's Fee and has been re-instated.

 

 

 

 

 

From a personal note, I found Jeff's attitude on this forum to be wholly unprofessional - this lost him more customers than he realises. Unfortunately there were 2 opinions on Jeff's work....good and bad. No one could post a "good" thread without the "bad" springing up and vice versa. Emotions ran high and for legal reasons the mods had to step in.

 

You wouldn't believe the amount of legal stuff we have to adhere to when running a forum as we can and will be held liable.

Point taken and noted Ajay, good words....

 

My only gripe with this whole thing is how not just the moderators appear to be singling out Jeff but a select few on the forum that are dragging Jeff's good name through the gutter..........unjustly!!!

 

These people hear a story and before you know it it's escalated and the bloke's a freaking villain!!

 

Bruiser!!

I am not going to get involved with this but all I would only say is that if a thread is nuked then an explanation on a closed thread should be written. This might just ease the situation a bit.

The amount of times this has come up maybe someone should put a z.edworld FAQ together :rofl:

James - good point.

 

Pete - LOL! :D

Nobody else getting a bit bored of this then?

..

Gworilla - can you make your sig pic a bit bigger?

my dial up connection can still just about cope :p

As said in the private forum - Just spoke to Jeff @ Z.edworld to book my car in and have advised him to contact MAC1 to re-join. Hi is going to do this tonight as He wants to come back and IS willing to pay. I really hope a few people with grudges do not stop this happening.

Well I guess it will go under review, but as stated trader submission is by invitation only,

I actually take offence to this. Having been a member of this forum for over 3 years I was happy to help out Craig when he asked if i would moderate. Since then I have seen the formation of the committee and 300zx.co.uk grow into a club. All this volunteered help is done in between doing our own jobs and having a life!

 

If you have been moderated then it would have been under our 'Acceptable Use Policy' I suggest next time you make a little more effort into some constructive feedback and perhaps invite the mods to participate in a discussion if you feel un-fairly treated.

Well I guess that's that then..........

 

Matty.

can't express an opinion on jeff's work. but i think the mods do a great job and somebody has to decide what or who is allowed on this forum. i imagine that it takes up alot of their personal time. which means they must have understanding partners. heres to ya :duffer:

Gworilla why don't you give me a ring if you would like to discuss things?
