Great label if you omit 'potentially'

This is my main concern too. His advice may lead a newbie into a bucket of trouble when a simple fix is all that is required. He has never heard of the KISS Principle and seems to suggest the least cost effective way of doing anything. I can deal with his posts but I fear for the newbie who might get into all sorts of problems and hurt themselves or their bike.

Re: Mrgz250

It's already been done.
We don't usually have a no tolerance policy when someone appears to be human, but this was different. It was obvious trolling, even if it was human enough to respond directly to people.

I would make note, the best way to deal with this type of stuff is still to just hit the little flag button at the bottom of the post. The mods see those first thing when we log in and we can go directly to the issue and deal with it instead of having to search through a couple dozen posts before we find the issue.

There are only a couple of us keeping this place cleaned up, so we might as well make it as simple as possible.

Love you, dudes. Now, back to the show
