IDK about the rest of you, but I can clean a roof. I certainly don't need a $500 certification to make me legit. This place used to be worth well over $100/ year but the value seems to be deflating. I bid a $635 job yesterday and included a link to the RCIA when I emailed him the bid. That's the first time I've ever done that. I got on the board last night and was EMBARASSED to have done so. I told the customer that this was one avenue I used to further my education. I told him that this was an organization of professionals. When I follow up with him I guess I should be suprised when I don't get the job. I've got to go now, I need to remove the RCIA logo from my website. I wasn't here when Chris started the RCIA, but I've read a shiftload of old posts and I can tell it's not what it used to be.
A GOOD point ! Some sensitive posts have crept into the search results by them being posted in the OPEN sections of the forum. We need to direct the moderators and members to glean through the threads, and I will move them away from the search engines. Customers DO read these threads guys, and while a little arguing is normal, a LOT is not good for us, it makes us look worse IMHO then hacks. It is my opinion we need to get this Forum back to what it once was for, that is training and certification of roof cleaners. How LONG has it been since we have seen any posts about new roof cleaning stuff, pumps, chemicals, and methods ?
Please do you job. Please see the rules of this BB. There are several posts that are violating these rules.
Guests & Members,
If your post is not about roof cleaning post in the shade. (PM a moderator if you need the password) If it is attacking another member please send it as a PM to that member. ONLY POST OR RESPOND IN A WAY THAT IS INDUSTRY BUILDING, RESPECTFULL AND FOLLOWS THE FORUM RULES.
The RCIA has a protocol in place for disciplining these matters and we have directed the moderators to start enforcing that immediately.
1. Your post will be edited or removed and you will get a warning by PM.
2. The next violation your post will be edited or removed and you will get a PM that you are on probation for a month.
3. If you choose to violate again you will be suspended from the RCIA BB for the period of 90 days.
We are not the free speech police. You agreed to the forum rules when you placed membership here, we have warned everyone from time to time re posting the rules, (they are easy to find) and this hate speech is hurting our image as Chris discussed above. YOU HAVE HIS WORDS!
If you cant play by our rules (which were in place as long as 2 years before I got here) then go play on someone else's board.
You also posted it on the open side. WHERE POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS CAN READ IT !!!!! I know you don't have them anymore, but the rest of us still work for them. Screw with my income....I dare you.
No need for name calling so I edited it. The tone of this is not appropriate, please send these comments via PM in the future.
Thanks- Matthew

Matthew I'm trying to be patient with you, but you need to explain yourself. Exactly WHAT am I guilty of? Please enilghten me. Also, put my post back. This is the paid side and the fact that you disagree with me has obviously clouded your judgement. I will be petitioning for your removal as a moderator for removing my post for no reason other than you disagreeing with it. If it has not been replaced by the next time I check the board, there will be repercussions.

You call someone a Dumb ass and then name them and ask for an explanation as to what you did wrong???? Really??? Do you want someone doing it to you?
ART, You need some sleep or a beer. Or both. Go outside and take a deep breath and kick your dog. Maybe your yappy neighbors dog would be better. Either way step away from the computer and get your trailer together.

If you can't tell me which rule I broke, you cannot put me on double secret probation or whatever you think you did with that lame PM. If I were being arrested (again) they would have to tell me the charge. I would expect no less from you unless my infraction is simply not agreeing with you. If that's the case, and it sure seems to be, then you abused your authority as a moderator. That is also all I can infer until you tell me which rule I broke. BTW, I posted in In The Shade & the apology is in your inbox. (I told you I have a big heart.)
