Not an owner, but been here since the early days and moderating for a couple years now. I've read every post, deleted a bazillion spam messages, banned a couple people, and participated in quite a few debates. The ratio of contributors vs leachers is pretty frustrating, and I've always been disappointed with the lack of effort shown by the hundreds of people passing through, milking the site for info, and then never giving anything back.

We don't have a rule book at MCM because we're all motorcyclists and we should naturally just get along and respect each other. The rules are simple. Be excellent to each other, don't talk about oil, use the search button, separate fact from opinion before posting, SHARE.

I deleted one unnecessary post today because it was a personal attack and it was in someone's ride report. I will not allow someone's ride report to be muddied up with foolish banter. However, this is a forum, and everyone is entitled to their own opinion, even the idiot(s). There's no reason anyone should stop contributing just because some douch-hole is acting like an idiot.

Ride more and post more, it's good for the soul.

Cheers!
