At one time I was a member of 3 different driver's forums, one being Trucker's Report.
The admin at one of the other forums asked me to be a moderator, and I accepted.
A few days later I tried to sign on at the Trucker's Report, only to find I had been banned. When I contacted the admin there I was told the ban was because I was a moderator at a competing forum.
The staff at the Trucker's Report has a reputation for unexplained banning, frequently changing rules without making them known to the membership, and establishing memberships at other driver's forums to "spy". Much of what happens at Trucker's Report is petty bickering and childish game playing.
I have commented here before that truck drivers can be a difficult and childish lot, and many of them seem to congregate at Trucker's Report.
The majority of the membership here is a great and likeable bunch. Sure there are a few malcontents, but they come and go, and for the most part the interactions here are fun, invigorating, and helpful. When the rare occasion opos up where people disagree, most of the time it gets worked out and everyone moves on.
