Your comment gave me pause for thought.I like the forum generally…

Should be a comma in there somewhere

We just need three steps not all five...Regardless, I'm still waiting for any of these apparent saviours to get involved and make SM decent, inclusive and loving again.

Contact Scaf. He can assist you with that PhilSo you think that all of us old 'uns should be consigned to a never ending deep sleep?
People will drift in and out anyway
While I may be part of the problem with non-car related content it is because I would not be here as much if it was only about cars. I mean, how many of your friends in real life do you only talk about cars to.

Have a Word!That's a good, but limited Outlook.

To share a point always fails and leads to a lotus state.That was a good Point to Share.
Wise words. Just to be clear. Do all the old pervs have to go searching/stalking for Jenny now or is she an off topic?So, myself and the mods have sat back and let nature take its corse….open discussion to this gathering problem.
I must say, since this highlighted, the forum has returned to some sort of normality. I accept Benny has not posted which probably halves the problem but there is a return to ‘feel the love’
A few observations:
This forum came about from over moderation of the old forum, something we refuse to do but there is a line, which has been crossed of late.
Members are given a free rein and should know where that line is.
There have been comment of…since Corona virus…. yada, yada. This is something we see held accountable all over the place a personally I don’t accept it.
Also, the members themselves have to accept that they are the ones that caused this mess. Not pointing fingers, you just have to accept that crossed words and bad feeling got us to this point from the members not the mods.
So this open and Frank discussion is a good thing.
Forums don’t last forever, believe me I have seen most hit the skids which IMHO comes from a build it up and knock it down mentally.
Another observation is the same group of 20 or so members post 90% of the content. This maybe true but it’s been the same since the start.
If this forum was to dwindle, all the technical detail would remain, till at least the end of my days.
So, as I always state, this is not my forum it is your forum. Use it, nurture it and treat others as you would want to be treated yourself.
At the end of the day, we are a community of Maserati owners, gentlemen and we are better than the rest as are our choices of vehicles.
That said, the plan to curb off topic content is in place. A new Community forum will be created where off topic content such as The Good Morning thread and the likes will move too then the off topic Jokes forum and it’s content will be removed from the most recent threads…meaning, you will have to go search for it and for the rest who deem it unnecessary, it won’t be presented to them at the top of the page.
As ever, if you have any other comments or suggestions, email me at admin@sportsmasrrati.com and they will be considered.
Thank you, the mods
Can I suggest you monitor the changes u make.So, myself and the mods have sat back and let nature take its corse….open discussion to this gathering problem.

This is the only part I think you need to reasses . Maybe not the mods so much but yourself. Allowing one individual free reign to treat the forum as a stress relief valve, regardless of his personal circumstances, has created the mess you refer to. Not just specifically when instigating others to respond.you just have to accept that crossed words and bad feeling got us to this point from the members not the mods.
