Conflict of Interest

The only thing jon needs to work on is remembering which username he's logged in under

All is good, Basically what I have asked the Mods to do is keep me in check, I will refrain from Moderation in the Vendor section in order to:

“act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the independence, integrity, and impartiality of the forum, and shall avoid impropriety and the appearance of impropriety.”

I will still step in when needed to help hold the forum to the standard that we have grown accustom too. The basic issue is that I want you as members to feel free to praise or condemn ANY product (including The Steel Armadillo) that you feel the need too without fear of repercussion.

.....in that case....

what's with that S.A. dude? Didn't he promise progress pics of an XK front bumper like 2 weeks ago??? That audacity....

I'm still so new to Jeeps, I'm soaking it all in!

Being a moderator on an AR15 board, I can appreciate the struggle between wanting to cut loose, and professionalism - I'm sure that's tougher when you're also a sponsor, although I've seen that managed well elsewhere, too.

I like this board, because of the 6 Jeep forums I joined the first week after buying my Commander , this one is the most responsive, and has the most personable people. Matt saw me on another board and invited me to join, and I haven't been disappointed yet (blame him)!

I also like to spend money where I hang out, so as soon as I get some, I already plan on spending it here (which I realize is a lotta talk, until you ACTUALLY do it, but there you have it...). And other than the crazy guy with no doors on his Commander, I'm thinking no one else here would steer you into something crazy or hazardous - all YOUR rides still have their doors, fenders, & accoutrements relatively intact - a not unimportant consideration to a new board member whose about to mail Payment #2 on his Commander later this week!

I think the strength of this board is in it's low key/low pressure approach to helpfulness. I don't see anyone trying to build "Jeepzilla" here, and y'all have wives you hafta sneak stuff past too (I'm really looking forward to sneaking a 2" lift and 30x9 A/T's past MY wife... to say nothing of custom bumpers, rock rails, winch, and a roof rack ). I ONLY discovered last night in fact, that Knappster and Steel Armadillo are one & the same!

That makes two of us!

Just point this guy out man I'll take care of him for you. I say we make him walk the plank of shame!

Step it up to at least 31s (I don't think you need anything extra to make them work)
My 32s required spacers and pinch weld mod so you may not want to do that

Ok, I have to come clean.......
The true quote:
"A Judge Shall Uphold and Promote the Independence, Integrity, and Impartiality
of the Judiciary, and shall Avoid Impropriety and the Appearance of Impropriety"
was from the original American Bar Association cannons of 1924.

I remembered part of this quote and amended it to fit the need of the forum.
I just changed 2 words, but it really is a good code of conduct.

I am lucky in that my wife, (Lee) is always pushing me to find new modifications for the Commander. She is the one that talked me into buying the Stacker trailer to carry the Mustang and the Commander with us on trips.

Oh yes, and Jon I would not worry at all about being both a vendor and Moderator. Jon has as much integerity as anyone I know. I trust that he will always do the right thing.

Thanks Bill, that is the reputation I want to keep intact!
