This forum was always about the telling of what happend when the race took place, not setting them up. We would allow the occasional call out because it wasn't the norm and when it did happen the threads stayed on track and the races happened.
We recently made the change to allow call outs and it blew up in our faces. The forum ended up being filled with pointless callouts that never ended up turning into a race. So, now we are forced to crack down hard to try to get things back under control.
This used to be one of my favorite forums on the site and I always looked forward to reading it, especially after the weekends. Why? Because we had alot of people posting good stories about some good races. Hell, even the bad races at least got a good write up that was enjoyable to read. Alot of those people don't post or read much in here anymore because of how shitty it has gotten in here and how immature some of the users are acting. I know there are alot of big cars that have either just come out or are about to come out and I'd love to have this forum cleaned up and back to normal so we can hear about them like times past.
Like it or not, this is what I am going to work towards getting this forum back to. If you don't agree and can't control yourself in here, don't read/post in this forum. If you can't control yourself enough to do this, I'll help you out with a temporary ban from War Stories. If that doesn't work or you start spreading the bad behavior to other areas of the board, I'll remove you from the rest of the site.
