Why did genearch close the BMW 330i and IS350 thread?
I know that genearch is a BMW fan, just do a search of his posts and you will see he thinks a lot of BMWs. But to close a good thread with good discussion points concerning a Lexus on a Lexus board was completely inappropriate. Was the poor little BMW getting beat up a little too much for his liking?

Hey,
I am a car fan too and like just about any make or model if it has the right goods. Just about any thread can go in circles, but that thread was popular and had good discussion points that were still in progress. To just close it by saying it is going in circles, yet many people seemed to still be interested in it and were still posting on it is just stupid. Let's just make a policy of closing all popular threads in the future. Be careful not to let your BMW ownership cloud your thinking as you continually tell others. You are definately a prime example of the pot calling the kettle black.

I would have to chime in. First all, someone that does not own a Lexus should not be a mod on this board. Not sure if this is the case or not. But let's face reality here. This is a LEXUS BOARD, first and foremost-is it not? I have noticed the same that many others have noticed that have not yet posted about and it is getting really old and someone should step in. This is CLUBLEXUS ,not CLUBLEXUS/BMW. There is a difference between fair and what has been going on with CL recently when people disagree with BMW's.

Folks, there are ways to report issues you may have with moderators clearly outlined in the forum rules, and an ongoing thread is not one of them.
A better alternative to email is PMing me here on the forum.
Lee the OWNER of ClubLexus does not own a Lexus right now, and while I generally agree the moderator should own a Lexus (and Gene does, btw, along with a BMW and an Infiniti) we select moderators based on their knowledge of Lexus, active participation in the forums / helping others, respect for our forum rules and several other criteria. We've also got lots of members currently without Lexus vehicles and they are welcome to stay as well. Gene has been a member and moderator on this forum since even before I joined.
