I don't think punctuation and bad grammar are exactly what they are going after. They are going after this:

I'm sure you will take this personally, but what do you contribute to the site?
I've been on this site since August 2003 - back then, it was one of the most go-to sites for tech/info. Since that time, it's progressed into a cesspool for low-class (if you don't know the difference between low-class and race and education and ..... then educate yourself on the topic before spouting off) people who are pretty damned proud to be going nowhere with their lives.
Every forum loses people and gains people over time - that's natural. However, the members this forum has been shedding in relation to those that it has been gaining has definitely shown a downward trend in terms of the 'quality'. There are many, many older members on here that are sick and tired of all the bullshit that we've gotta wade through, all the crap we've got to pick through, and the reality that what was once a GREAT site is mired down with too many low-life jackasses.
It's actually pretty simple - not that different from what you find in most arenas of life - either follow the rules or leave. Very straight-forward. The mods/admins/whoever are apparently (and rightly so) sick of the crap to the point where they're threatening to 'clean up' the site - if that's a problem for you, then you're the problem.

Was that directed to me? I don't contribute? What do I have to do to contribute? I buy/sell parts N a lot of people on here know me personally N know I'm no thief. Hell I don't even lowball people like most "contributing" members I pay what they ask for the part, ask all the people I've bought from.

EXACTLY.
Low lifes have taken over this website and are ruining a 10 year history. I dont recall any other mustang sites that have THEIR OWN MEMBERS stealing cars from other forum members. Thats shady and you wonder why we dont see any badass built cars/project build threads anymore.

I was starting to lose faith in this site. Get rid of the scum! What about those who post videos of their selves swingin' doughnuts in residential areas! straight up illegal! AND if my neighbor did that in front of my house he'd be hearing from me or the cops.

+1 this is how i feel.. back when i joined in 06 (different account) if you had a tech problem there was 15 people that knew what they were talking about and would help.. every post wasn't, look at this hypy yum yum i'm did in front of my house or look at my great ls1 catfish. it has gotten out of hand.. i don't know how many times i have had the, "cafords is going down hill" talk with older members. i'm just glad to see some clean up is being done. thank you mods.. ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

I actually quit coming to this site for a while due to this. Not only because of the gutter slang, but because I felt like I had to look in my garage after every time I logged in to make sure my car was still there. Thank you mods.

Its about time the moderators have decided to clean up this forum...its been full of a bunch of idiot dumbshits IMO..this is suppose to be an enthusiast site, not some "side show swangin fitty" website. Grow the F@#K up everyone and lets get back on track, talk about our rides, improvements-good or bad, parts, and everything in between. With that said bring on the haters!

You need to stop posting that quote at the bottom. You obviously didn't realize that was a joke to the op of the thread that was posting to show him how dumb is typing looked to everyone that looked at his thread topic. This is like the second time now if you got something against me send me a p.m I'm not gonna be put on blast over and over again and classified as "ghetto ban material" over a joke you couldn't understand

+1 ive always believed in not judging people because sometimes its the ones who are the coolest with you that could stab you in the back and also the other way around, you could end up being friends with someone you may not like at first. ive always been one to give people a chance before passing judgment on them.

i dont know who youre referring to as idiot dumbshits but you must not know many people on this site. ive met quite a few people from the board and not many of them are what youre describing. this judgmental bullshit is really starting to sicken me.

Im tired of all the ibtl and free post bullshit that runs wild on here. All the useless threads and posts and misinformation piss me off. If you cant spell that good then so be it. Not everyone is an english major but there is a differnce between grammer mistakes and pure shit.
If you want a ghetto ass forum, where you can post all your bullshit and steal from other members, then go make your own site and leave all the rest of us alone.
