Please step lightly in your new-found endeavor.

Sometimes, less is more.

Let's not forget that (most of us) have PAID to be members of this website. Therefore it should be a democracy and it IS our website.



Yes but the new ownership doesn't seem to respect that. Maybe a boycott of CRT sponsors would be appropriate. Also, I think all long time posters should stop posting information and supply new content to the site.

The new moderation is totally overboard. This is our board. We paid. We provide all the content. I will not patronize any CRT sponsors until this moderation craziness is fixed.


Bye bye!

Not sure what is said when you signed up for VIP that if you pay $39 you own the board?

The same people bitching about the moderation now are the same ones bitching about the lack thereof just a short while ago.

Nice to see CRT management doing a virtual clean sweep of the **********edited to remove personal attack************

Moderator's Note: Personal attacks are prohibited by the forum rules and the user has been banned.

Samba Sam is obviously an old non-VIP with a new name. But since he insults other members instead of the moderators he gets to keep breaking the rules.

Maybe these threads should all be in the VIP sections to prevent guys like him from getting access. Just keep one forum for newbies and everything else to the PAID members.

bingo. it would be nice to see a sweep of this type of trash before banning a long time member and contributor on a one off mistake.
but the guy has to start somewhere. the pendulum swings hard both ways before it hopefully finds a center. the ban could have been a warning to start. but in fairness he was called out to a degree.
i just don't see why there is a rush to indict his every move. he's trying to give the board a broader appeal to more members.
i doubt he is going to strike down every attempt at humor w a sledge hammer.
mods are rarely popular esp on a board with no real moderation for as long as this one has.

I would like to remind the forum members that CRT is a Gentleman's Guide to Costa Rica. Please make every effort to keep your postings civil.

I'm sorry, but we just can not allow name calling and personal attacks. If someone calls you a name, then please click the report post button, so that person can be banned. Please do not reciprocate with name calling.

Understand some of us have been around a minute and know each other quite well. With that being said, if I wanna call MG a dickface (cos he is) I'm %100 sure he would know I was saying that tongue in cheek..

So with all this hyper spaziness are we prohibited from joking around, instead of faggie do I actually have to spell out Phoenix Rising everytime?

Please advise...

- so SUE me!!!

But you're right NHank. I went against the "Bro Code", and I'm sorry. :cry: :cry: :cry:

Exactly !

If the resident bromance king wants to throw some homo carinitas my way why not ? Let em rip! 8) :D

The other thing is, most of us knew Tomas personally or met him along the way, now along comes Admin 3 who nobody knows and flexing like this ...not welcome

Not good

really disagree with the wholesale white washing of threads. whats the point in taking the time to post something that is going to be erased? imo this is poor form as well.
its like a forum lobotomy.

A couple of points here. Last week many members, including myself, asked for increased moderation. I think Admin has been doing a fair job over the last few days. If I was a paranoid person I might think that some members have an agenda-vested interest in seeing CRT fail.

Secondly I have always maintained that CRT should be a "paid members only" board. You are planning to get into the game but can't scrape together $39?
