FORD and I have an ongoing pissing contest
about political views/sides; but that's what it's
all about. He's just taking a stand for his side
and he's passionate about it. Bottom line is:

We gotta agree to disagree.

You need to learn to take off the boxing gloves
after the match and belly up to the bar afterwards
with your opponent.

Agreed but FREE SPEECH is not FREE a lot of people have died so that you and I can say or think what we want.Who decides what is off limits when it comes to speech and or ideas.

Absolutely he should be! There are a lot of opinionated people on this sight. Is asking this question or starting this thread an effort to silence opinions of those dissenting from the conservative party line?

yes. That is exactly what we need. OPINIONS. Without them, this would be www.vhlinks.com and you'd be answering to an ass-licker named Brett. ;)

As much as I despise Ford and his views, I do not think he should lose his mod status and his ability to post here at the Army just because he is unpopular. However, if he begins to abuse his mod power, he is gone.

No offense, but the whole free speech ain't free line came right out of the country song in the TEAM AMERICA movie.:D

FORD is just as opinionated as some of the hardcore Conservatives here too. It's called differing opinions. Suggesting he shouldn't be a mod because more people in here seem to be sympathetic to Conservative views doesn't make any sense.

FORD should definitely be a mod. Frankly, I thought he should have been a mod at the Links. But obviously, that wasn't to be.

This is a stupid thread.

If you're going to question FORD's suitability for a mod position, at least raise a legitimate reason for it -- i.e., closing threads that discuss issues he disagrees with, editing posts, etc.

I'm not taking a position here, btw, except to say that this is a stupid thread. :D

I guess i should have reworded the whole thing,like i said i like the little mental patient but he seems to close any thread that he can't deal with factually.... I started a thread in jest recruiting voter intimidators,With all the talk of voter intimidation in 2000 and even talk of it before the election this year NOT ONE person has ever been produced who was kept from voting.For some reason Ford decided to shut it down.

First off, that is ABSOLUTELY NOT the point.

Second, how would you know that? Do you know all the stories behind every district, voter, bi-law? Plenty of people were kept from voting last time. I'm sure Jeb is doing his best this year too.

FORD has paid the dues to be a mod here.

He makes up for his political shortcomings with his humor.

That's as nice as I'll be until Nov 2nd.

As a moderator on a DAVID LEE ROTH fansite, not many surpass the credentials FORD brings to the table... the key element to remember is "DAVID LEE ROTH site"... because that's what this place is... first and foremost... he knows more about Classic VH/DLR/music in general than 99% of the folks on this board. He brings a significant amount of knowledge and background to music-related topics and to the man (and his ongoing legacy) who gives us a reason to host a site like this... David Lee Roth.

With regard to the Front Line forum, a conscious decision was made to have FORD and Elvis moderate this arena not only for their well-informed positions (based on their respective biases, penchant for melodrama, and belief in outlandish conspiracies and fairy tales... be it the BCE or the Bible, ;) ), that is what makes this forum interesting and fun, if you don't take it too seriously/personally or get carried away. :)

Politics is serious business, and we have a lot of great, passionate folks here who believe in a multitude of views, left wing, right wing, and chicken wing... as a result, who better than FORD and Elvis, to co-mod a forum like this?

So the bottom line... if FORD or Elvis or D. Love, or any of our mods not fit the profile and have the credentials to be mods here anymore, BCE operatives will dispose of them promptly. lol

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sieg Oil!!!

Yup. I agree 100%. It's not whether or not you agree with FORD or ELVIS. The idea is that both guys are basically on very different sides of the debate. And that's what makes it interesting.

It's not that I disagree with Ford though often I do it's his willingness to spout hateful evil shit but when someboody else tries something even in jest he locks it down.

For an old school to another man, Ford has ALL my respect
with any DLR site on the net...
we all old schoolers had many ways back in the day
EUAS or not, this cat should hold his head high, i can count on 2 hands
on his full fledged fanhood, superfan indeed..if you were around in 1999 on slawterhouse, links, old DLR Army you'd know what i mean.
Ya cant count out the baddass in many ways, backed all us before
this forum was hot with not even 25 posts a day, he was there.
I also dig the guy is a leader, not a follower as many are here
& or the links..thats the coolest thing about our site, many
headcases but believe in 1 thing. Dave, the best there ever was
as a frontman of the best band, unfortunatly they became
decaffienated once again..
NO dude, Ford is the shit period..
in contrary just because you dont agree with me or him or anyone
here sometimes, doesnt mean his fanhood should be doubted.
He earned his stripes long before your 1st 500 posts here there or everwhere. I dont agree with most all the time, but respect anyone
who digs dave as much as i do & that there says alot to me..
but hey, i dont pick fights..i like to laugh alot & enjoy the creativity
of some & insite, fights..
anyway if my vote counts your way off bro..
have a cocktail or beer & enjoy the other threads on this forum..
you should be fighting the good fight..remember why your visiting
here. I do all the time..
I got a stupid assed tattoo to show my colors too..
But i do dig it ;) just cant believe i did it..:cool:

No. I think he loves his country. I think ELVIS loves his country too. The difference is that they don't agree on how their governments are doing. The point is that in a free country, you should be able to criticize or dislike your government. That's what freedom really is.

JCOOK, I think you're a cool guy. I got no issues with you. But I don't think FORD is hateful. I think he's opinionated, and a lot of people get angry when they don't share an opinion. But I've seen more people attack FORD personally than vice-versa. I'm not saying who's right. I'm just saying he's been attacked for his opinions.

FORD is a Big Dick. He accused me of sucking Bushed Dick after making my first post here in the forum, just because I support George Bush. This guy is a TOTAL asshole and does not deserve to have any position of authority. It is not a way for him as a moderator to welcome a new member. So for every thread until he apologizes I will call hm what he is a DICK.

Sorry, but I have got some people who already have supported me here. This guy is not a moderator but dictator. He acts as if this is his forum, and whether someone has 1 post or 5000 a moderator should set an example and treat people with respect no matter what their opinion. His first comment to me as a new member of this community was uncalled for and not appropriate for a moderator to a new member. But either way is OK. His behavior says more about who he is than anything.

First off, quit your bitching. Elvis once told me I suck FORD's dick and you don't hear me whining and complaining. Then again I'm not a bush fellating misanthrope like you.

Second, that IS the tone of this forum. It's the freakin' DLR Army, not Martha Stewarts Tea Time Fag Forum!

It's a rip-off alias/troll of what some think was an ALEX VAN HALEN alias of "Fernando" at the old official VH website forums (long closed), and here as well.

But at least he was occasionally funny...

FORD
11-20-2005, 12:18 PM
And Fernando didn't necropost the most ridiculous threads either.
