That kind of stuff will not be tolerated on x-h2o. If you have a personal problem with someone, you e-mail/pm/call them about it. You do not post about it on here and try to make yourself look better than them for whatever reason(s). If you had a bad business deal, that's what http://www.x-h2o.com/forumdisplay.php?f=16 is for but keep it honest and stick to facts.

Coming on this site and posting BS like namecalling, racial comments, etc like we had with sflsurfrider and yamasaki last night is ridiculous. It is disrespecting to me, Paul@Jr. Magoo's, Harrison (Big Kahuna), all the members of the site, plus what we're trying to do for the sport and riders. It also prevents us from having fun on the site because we're busy babysitting and reading pm's. If the site isn't fun, there is no reason to keep it around IMO.

The posts I'm referring to have been moved to Area 51, not deleted. I wasn't even aware of anything but checked my e-mail before going to bed and someone notified me what was going on. I finally got to bed over an hour later.

We are not the judge of who is right or wrong, but if it comes down to it and continues, people will be removed from the site, possibly including all posts by that person. vBulletin has much better ban controls than phpbb and they do work. If you get banned and want to keep creating new usernames that we don't catch, that's your prerogative, but is it really worth it to go through all of that just so you can keep posting?

Bottom line (literally), keep the site positive.

Please forgive me for repeating myself but... Our enemies are not within us but on the outside. Blue Water network wants nothing more than to ban every personal watercraft in the world from every waterway. We are in Washington DC daily fighting for our right to ride. Our enemy loves to see us fight amongst ourselves. They are watching every website out there that deals with PWCs.
I for one almost didn't come here because I had heard that this is where the negative posters from the other site came. I appreciate that you are working very hard to keep this site positive. Thank you. I know this is a very tough job. I also appreciate that we have another site to share our experiences at.

Nedra, sorry, but What was the point of that???


http://www.x-h2o.com/threads/58 How about reading this thread.......... gives some insight.........

Yes, alot of us are here because we did not like all the changes that took place after ownership changed hands............ Many of us still visit PWCToday......... I do............

Best to always learn something for yourself first hand rather than second hand......... hang around check us out............ believe it or not, other than one or two runnins, this site has gone on for almost 3 months with little if no moderation needed...........


Welcome to the sight.

that is odd, i have found tht the positive posters have moved to this site. i see no bickering and whining on this board. everyone here is mega helpful and tolerant

i really think a lot of the smart a$$'s are still on the othersite . I really don't like posting there much anymore as that is the kind of response i seem most often to get. even from the site admin?????????????
the experience here is much more positive
