This General Discussion Board was deleted by LocalRaceChat? Not sure why, but they made the board and can access. I don't think they meant to delete it?
I had posted the board was temp down due to those crazy posters that offer no good post rarely but bull crap, hurtful, derogatory remarks! We do not need your kind on here or want your post!
As of now you must a member, register, and be approved. It has come to this b/c of those asses! We finally get our sport more media and I like to think I had a hand in that help. More media sources articles, Internet, papers, etc. Then asses that can't be civil make us still have the stereotype of just rednecks fighting. We have come so far, please leave this board!

I'm glad Bonnie, that you finally did what everyone has been telling you to do for a long time now. There is no sense that a few ruin it for the most of us. As the old saying goes, "There's no need to act like a fool and open up your mouth and prove your a fool". Just because some have a very limited vocabulary, is no excuse to use the language that some seem to resort to using, and in the same token If you can't type something that is not incriminating or demoralizing then, JUST DON'T TYPE ANYTHING...... That is not to say that corrective criticism is not wanted or appreciated but only when it is used in a manner in which no one is offended AGAIN THANK YOU BONNIE

i understand the need for something to be done about the vulger tone some of these posts had,but i certainly hope this board doesnt resort to a board that people are afraid to post anything negative.

I hope to keep everything as it was but you have to register to participate and be approved before you can log in. I had over 50 today to approve, I guess a lot were guest before?
Anyway, I want to keep things as they are EXCEPT for those few ass holes that ruin it for us. I'm not saying you can't complain, or make comments positive or negative. HOWEVER, the real bad stuff that is too much will not be tolerated. That is to say you report it, and if it warrants to be removed, or suspend or whatever, it will be!
Please bare with reports, activations, and such by the staff if it is not done instantly! I'm not sure how it will work yet? You will live another day!
Now if someone says Joe Blow is always running into us or everyone else and so on....He can't drive...does not warrant to be taken off. But say someone comes on here and says Sally Blow is screwing around with so in so, and just a tramp (not exactly that word to use but harsher that does not show if I type it, but it starts with w and ends with e), or she/he stole a tractor and I know where it is will warrant removal. Remember there is a fine line and everyone or a lot are offended with any criticism. So that has to be determined to stay up or not? Come on people, use common sense PLEASE! Although that has not worked obviously in the past. I hope everyone can and will concur with the new changes so the board does not have to be shut down? That's the next step? So it is in your hands to keep the asses off here!
There is some place on here for you to report the trouble makers. Then I have a few options for that member, and one is a warning by me can be viewed by all to see.
I have said many times it is a shame to have to babysit grown people and do not get to view this everyday. One of the main reasons is that with my disability it takes all my strength just to try and function to some type of normal day such as just getting up, wash dishes, comprehend things, etc. Many of things are just hard for me to focus on with just trying to do anything in a day. I don't like having to tell all this, but I am on disability for these and other reasons. You can't tell by looking at me that I would struggle with such simple things? However, this is what has happened to me for the last 10 years, I was not like this before I got Fibro and ill in 2000. It is hard to admit this when you have never had this kind of trouble in your life. It is hard to accept, but I have no choice, I have to make do with what I can. That being said, to come on here everyday to check what everyone has posted is not a priority in just functioning in a day for me? Sorry, but that is a fact and why I don't monitor 24 hrs a day. Don't take things for granted, don't sweat the small things!
I try to provide this info (board & web...) b/c I feel our racing in our area is just as good or better than a lot of places. It is my job (in sense to me) since I can't work normally. We should be proud of our tracks, drivers, fans and promote them, not tear them down for other areas to have to see how stupid some are. It all reflects on us. Look at the big picture, think?
I am also aggravated, and sorry that I have been struggling to keep things in tip top shape on my web, (not the board) as I did in the past? I hate it, but I am trying and that is all I can do, I am not nor will I ever give up! And hope to one day be like I used to be, but it is not looking that way still?
I am looking for advertisers and I just struggle to get with really working on it with all my trouble, and please do not feel sorry for me, that is not why I told my laundry? But, I really could use some advertisers to pay off debts made to run this, and supplies like the camera, programs, router, etc? I only have one advertiser and without them I could not do this!! Prices start at just $200 for the year, that is pretty reasonable or donations will help? I feel like I am begging and I should not feel like that b/c I am providing a service to many of you. Thanks
Thank you to all and for all your support!

bonnie , how about doing something like supporting membership, were you could charge 20 bucks a year , and those members can post picxtures, and such, I see this on some of the hot rods boards. at 20 buck each , 10 of us would be equal to a sponsor.
just a thought. I am on here mostly 7am til 3pm M-F, if I can help with anything like modarator or what ever.
Will

Thanks, Bonnie, for all that you do. It is a pleasure and a convenience to access information from you site. I realize the "board" has gotten out of hand and am so glad you are making an effort to "clean things up" We are so fortunate that our local race track and racers are putting on great shows every week. Businesses all around us are failing, but people are still racing. This past Saturday looked to be very well attended by fans and the car count was up as well. There will always be negative people and negative attitudes, but that's usually just people not getting their way about something. Even that radio talk show which originally just promoted local racing has turned extremely negative and behave as if they have some personal agenda or axe to grind. Just want to thank you for being a true race fan and race supporter .. and for all of your hard work on behalf of local race fans.
