Members of WGC

We have been experiencing an increased number of threads that are completely motorcycle unrelated.
This practice may be acceptable when members are requesting assistance or information from fellow members regardless of content such as help in diagnosing an issue such as an appliance, car, mower, home issue, etc. That is the “campfire” type discussion that the administration has welcomed and encouraged on this forum, even though it seems somewhat contrary to rule #2, which requests motorcycle subject matter only. It’s understood that can produce a boring forum.

However with some of these threads that are started (for the most part), the authors know beforehand they will be controversial and subjective. They most always lead to argumentative and divisive outcomes, as well as a headache for the moderators.
Subject matter such as aliens from other planets, UFO’s, the cost of rising fuel, big foot, laws against loud mufflers, EVs and on and on and most of which have already been posted several times in the recent past, causing issues each time, needs to stop.

In the future if one must start one of these controversial threads be advised they will be short lived. If these threads continue be advised the first post response that is argumentative will result in the entire thread being  taken down.

Thanks to the members for your participation and loyalty to WGC Motorcycle Forum.
