So a post by a member MBCJ got me to do some looking around.

Is it true that Premium Members get free samples of all the latest deals advertised on here? Thats what @Mike_PS told me, at least.

Say, speaking of that, I messaged him asking when my free case would arrive but he hasn't answered me. Anyone know if he's out sick? I've heard about that Covid thing.

First I noticed something missing on the right side of the page:

Used to be 4 names listed here. Starting with @Mike_PS

So next I went looking for him in the members and I see this.

What gives @VSadmin?

Moderator and administrator for around 20 years is no longer and no notification of any changes?

Who replaced him? Since it is my understanding that the volunteer mods don't have the same capabilities with the software that he did? Could be wrong about that.

 

[Mark Oomkes]

"A member"? Thats all I am to you?

MBCJ would make you happier?

The developers are working on it

I've been hearing a lot about AI of late (too mulch time in the truck listening to talk radio), maybe MJD is being replaced by a computer?

 

[Mark Oomkes]

Yes. I appreciate the personalized touch. Thank you.

I made the appropriate edit...just for ewe.

 

[Mark Oomkes]

So if Mike is no longer with VS (voluntarily or otherwise) and it doesn't appear he is being replaced, does this mean the money saved from his salary will be going towards hiring developers that can actually fix all the problems?

 

[Mark Oomkes]

Well I should have looked further...looks like all is under control.

A new moderator has been "hired".

This raises an interesting question....bullet point 3:

So now a Moderator is also a vendor???????

Like a violin case for musicians of the woods, the Chain Locker™ was built with a purpose. One of the first things you learn as a cutter is how to change chains on your saw. Dull chains is just part of life. And the more you cut, the more chains you’ll use over the years. But where do you store...

www.plowsite.com

Which completely violates bullet point #3.

But heaven forbid I type $hit but it's ok to use the $hit emoji 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩 💩

Talk about inconsistency and a lack of logic.

Maybe if I get some spare time next week I'll take the 1 hour drive to the head office in Toronto and see whats up, or #fourteen can do it, I bet he's closer.

Since it has been a good 3 hours and a ping or 2 to the admins, is today yet another Canadian holiday?

National Tuque Day,eh?

National Curling Day, eh?

Hoser Day, eh?

Take oof to the Great White North Day, eh?

Bob and Doug Mackenzie Recognition Day, eh?

Backbacon is the National Meat of Kannada Day, eh?

Blackface Awareness Day Sponsored by Justin Castro Trudeau, be? (thought I'd move on in the alphabet with this one, eh)

 

[Mark Oomkes]

I can't believe that neither Maple Syrup Celebration Day nor Hockey Is a Real Sport That People Care About Day made the cut.

$hit...or maybe I should say 💩 since only one version is kosher.

I am deeply sorry for missing those. I am so ashamed.

Not a good excuse, but I am a bit sleep deprived.

 

[Mark Oomkes]

Is 💩 kosher? Doesn't it depend on whether or not you've eaten bacon that day?

This would be a question for Trudeau as I believe he identifies as Jewish as well as black.

 

[Mark Oomkes]

I think I'm a real live person, but so did the people in The Matrix, didn't they? So who knows? Too much other stuff going on for me to contemplate such thoughts.

I was going to say...that's what all the bots/AI things say.

BTW, the mod rules are for a different site.

Well that makes perfect sense.

Just like I can say $hit at the other plowing forum but not this one. But koon and red neck are censored at both.

That clears it right up.

Let's give them a chance to respond.

Do they respond faster than the developers?

 

[Mark Oomkes]

Let's give them a chance to respond.

PS Most folks think ignoring a problem makes it go away.

PPS Definitely the MO for VS and the $hitty software so far.

PPPS So I'm going to stop holding my breath.

 

[Mark Oomkes]

You really don’t have anything better to do today do ewe?

I'm not in the office so there's no video to watch.

 

[Mark Oomkes]

Wait.

There is ANOTHER plow forum?!!?!?!
Well there goes my weekend! Now I have another whole site to catch up on.

Well...the last several years it has been a virtual ghost town.

Prior to that there was a lot of good discussion.

 

[Mark Oomkes]

It's Frideh!!!

Nope, Frida is Swedish...but that does bring up her song that fits this thread.

 

[Mark Oomkes]

Sorry, somehow, notifications where turned off for this section, so we did not get a notice.

Maybe the developers could look into it...
