mfg Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 I noticed today the administrator of the Studebaker Drivers Club Forum eliminated an interesting thread posted by John Hull, explaining details for the 2022 AOAI 60th anniversary International Meet. This type of behavior is quite typical of this guy....an authoritarian egotist...... He's the main reason I left the SDC a few years ago...and will stay away until that club sets term limits for their forum administrator position.

8E45E Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 That is one reason I don't participate on that Forum as much as I used to. When someone (usually new to the Forum) made an inquiry that was addressed and answered previously, I often copied & pasted the original post that provided an answer which was maybe done years ago. It also saved me from having to repeat myself. The Nazi moderator instantly locks it, considering its a 'necropost' because of its age, which becomes no longer relevant as its totally on topic and pertinent to the new poster's inquiry. Besides making the newcomer uncomfortable, it also discourages participation by long-time posters, and defeats what a major reason a Forum is for; a resource and sharing of information related to the product it represents.

mfg Posted January 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 Yes, if the Studebaker Drivers Club "term limited' their forum administrator position to, say, a three year maximum, I believe many frustrated former forum members would see that as a positive step, and no doubt participate once again.

mfg Posted January 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 I would think the administrator of the SDC Forum would have explained to Stude forum members why he feels that thread needed to be deleted....however, he's not very considerate......and he's done this same thing several times in the past! (The info he deleted was important to the AOAI AND the SDC!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
