Get your feelings hurt, Thai?
Thai said:
How gracious of you.
Not to worry, I'll be out of here soon enough.
Thai said:
Bull$hit. You delete posts when someone posts something you don't agree with, and then you say they "broke the rules".
Sorry, Thai, but I really don't remember the user's name. I do know you banned him for no reason in my mind. Though if I could remember his name, I'm sure you'd have every excuse to "justify your actions".Thai said:

Principle? You gotta be kidding me. What principle? You are the whiner, the crybaby, the little boy who didn't get his way.

Good people, fellow 4Runner mates,
This is it. I'll be out of here, now. I sure learned a lot from you all. Hopefully some of you have learned a few things from me, mostly about towing, if anything, since that's one of the main things I do with my 4Runner.
Look back at all my posts, you'll not find any (at least I can't remember any) that were confrontational. I tried to be a good member, and help folks as they helped me.
I'll not participate in a forum run by someone who deletes posts on a whim and then bans folks whenever he feels threatened or upset.
Finally, I think Thai is a good person in many ways. He sure knows his stuff, but like all of us, sometimes his judgement is wrong. I believe he has made a mistake here, with yet another ban of a forum member. Even Steven was a contributor, and a good one at that. As mentioned before, I didn't always agree with his approach, but that's okay.
Hopefully Thai will not delete these last couple of posts of mine.
Take good care now, friends, farewell.

juneau, so let me guess, you're whinning now because??? Oh yeah, principle. 
As for deleting posts, you can read ALL of koz's posts where he disagreed with me...hell, read the above posts regarding Muffing_Man (see linked thread). IT IS ALL THERE! So, before calling someone out, maybe you should do some research!!
It's only fair, is it not????
You don't remember TWO members (out of 17,606 members on this forum) who i have banned for no reason...yet, you feel the need to mention them here without a single damn proof!! How odd?? 
This forum is public...nothing for me to hide...and my moderators can chime in too. They are independent as they come. (BTW, i have never met any of the moderators on this forum...i do know Gatorgreg, but the last time that i saw him was over 6 years ago.)
Anything else you want to take a cheap shot at me?? I am in a surprisingly gentle mood today.
BTW, that was touching goodbye note. Why would i delete your posts?? I have no issue with you until this thread...and the issue is only with your memory loss. It is strange that your aggression came out of nowhere!

Shit, not long ago, i (and moderators) had PM's complaining about Even Steven's attitude and when is he gonna get banned. (If you don't believe me, then PM'ed any of the moderators and ask for yourself.)
And NOW, all this wonderful hugging support!
How about this...i will let oddie eddie whatever keep his account for now since the "public" has spoken. You guys can deal with Mr. Even Steven...and please, don't come and cry to me about his attitude later on. I am sure that the moderators also do not want to hear anymore complaints from members about Even Steven. I am sure he can only behave for so long...before the past resurfaces....Good luck...i am getting tired of this crap. :cheers:

Oh yeah, just to refresh people's memory, here is a taste of Even Steven: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=33371&perpage=15&pagenumber=1
It's too bad that the mods and myself had to delete/edit the thread for PG-13 content. Just read the last page and you can gleam what transpired...basically, Even Steven was challenging a new member to a good ole street fight!
BTW, that new member has not come back since that thread. We received numerous complaints, including one by a poster in THIS very thread! He reported the thread to us!
The freaking irony of it all!

Okay, a couple of comments after reading what Thai has to say:
1- I never claimed to be an angel or the perfect forum member. Yes, I can dish it out with the best of them, but the difference between me and Thai is that I can also take it. Thai obviously cannot, and he also has the power to ban. 'Nuff said about that.
2- Yes, Thai warned me via PM. No denying that. The funny thing is that his warning was immediately followed by banning me without a chance for me to get in another post.
3- Thai, no matter how much you think you may be right and I may be wrong on this, the fact of the matter is that several other members of this forum have taken my side, admittedly based upon MY words. Unfortunately, I can't prove that you said or did anything because you DELETE all posts that you don't want other people to see. There's no denying that fact. You can defend yourself all day long, but it comes down to this--if you really had nothing to hide, you wouldn't delete posts, you'd just lock the thread.
4- We all have our disagreements and yes, I've picked on Josh in the past. But it goes both ways. I'd like to think that I've actually contributed to this forum much more than I've been a problem. I have a good amount of general automotive knowledge due to by background and education, so I like to help out when I can. I also tend to stir the pot sometimes too. I don't think that's such a big deal.

That guy isn't here anymore because he was obviously a troll, bashing the 4Runner was his only purpose. I highly doubt he even owned a 4Runner at all.
But anyway, go ahead and dig up old posts to try and make me look bad. And rest assured that I can't do the same to you because you delete posts that make you look bad.
This is a fight I cannot possibly win, so I'll let you have this round, Thai.

Thai is co-owner of this forum. It's not that nobody likes him, it's just that he has a dictator-like managment style when it comes to moderating his forum.

2- uhhh, you wanted to be banned, remembered?? You threatened me to do so too!
So, you deny posting a very insulting (anger blowout) post in the thread in question???? Remember, i posted what i wrote above...you, sir, came back with an anger-filled post without much content besides just b!tching at me. I had nothing to hide, but i also do not want to read such angry (understatement!) post everytime i read the thread.
IF i had locked the thread, then we would never know what happened in the end, right?? Nor, would the OTHER member would appreciate that, right??
The sad part is that i am also the most visible target on this forum, as an admin (never can do everyone right) and poster. Therefore, everyone remembers me, but not everyone remembers you. Like i said, one of the members who posted in this thread was also the same one who reported YOU. People don't have good memory these days.

The ONLY reason Koz is still around is because he takes it only so far when he argues with you and then he backs down. After reading so many pissing matches between you two, I'm 99% sure that he backs down because he knows that you'll ban him if he continues. You guys have had some good debates in the past, but I've gotta tell you that Koz is right more often than not.
Thai, when are you gonna realize that your Nazi style puts a certain level of "fear" in other members here? Why can't people be free to speak their minds, even if it opposes your views? You constantly shut people down who don't agree with you.
Go ahead and talk about my history, but take a second to look at yourself before you start calling the kettle black.

Even Steven will NOT have his privileges back. He or whatever name he chooses next can whine all he/she want...it ain't gonna happen. It's just a matter of principle.
I never once asked for my privileges back, Thai. Quite honestly, I don't really want to remain a member here if this is how the place is moderated. It's a good forum with plenty of good people, but the managment just sucks.

Koz, backing down?? That is pretty funny...Koz may take offense at that!
Now, how did i guess that you're gonna take Koz side on this??? Hey, if people think that this forum is a freaking Nazi camp, then move on to another forum...there are plenty around. But, then again, 17,600 people on this forum likes it just the way it is.
Why did YOU come back after all this time????

Yes, that seemed to be the case. And if you read my posts in that thead (or what's left of them), you'll see that my hunches were right on. No, I didn't think that the 4Runner didn't have ATRAC, but I thought it must be broken after watching the videos.
In any event, the point was that the ATRAC was not in any way functioning, and I guess it could not possibly be functioning if the 4Runner wasn't even equipped with ATRAC!
