You are correct, I failed to take into consideration the 843 statute, as I didn't look that far. I have been retired a long time and I failed to recall that statute.

I don't know about cops...

Here is the simple answer straight from the statute:

316.2397 Certain lights prohibited; exceptions.—(1) A person may not drive or move or cause to be moved any vehicle or equipment upon any...

As long as the lights do not light up, you will be okay.

I just deleted 14 Spam threads of crap titled "Some Agency" Vs. TPD. I banned one poster who did quite a few of them.

Any more posts like these will be deleted and the poster of them will be...

There's no Aloy either. I was just going by the spelling in the post.

I would not get on these boards and say anything if someone had been or was a mod. I would just keep my...

Just checked my list of moderators back from the beginning. There has never been anyone by the name of Haines as a moderator with either Escambia County nor Santa Rosa County. So, I don't know...

The "deleted" posts were actually sent to me for my review. I found that some of them were in violation and deleted those. I just returned the others that were not in violation, in my opinion.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but if you look down at the bottom of the index page for this agency, you will not see a moderator listed. That's because your agency currently does not have an active...

I thought the same thing when I read it. I checked and it was the same poster.

I'm going to give you a warning this time. Quoting and replying to your own post is a violation of the Terms of Use that can result in your being banned. It's bad when I am just reading through the...

I deleted the thread "Mags" due to the nature of it. Deputy Magli was killed in the line of duty serving your agency honorably. I will not tolerate any posts or threads that...

I just checked the IP address of the post you quoted from the IUPA thread. It's not banned. Furthermore, it's the same IP address as the one you posted this post from. So, I'm not sure why you...

When did this occur? I haven't banned anyone on the IUPA thread. I haven't even been on that thread that I can recall. Odds are you were using a dynamic IP address and your IP changed to one that...

Their are 2 types of IP addresses. Static and Dynamic. I can ban static but not dynamic, as dynamic ones are temporary and it might be mine today and yours tomorrow.

With that said, the poster...

I deleted it because you did it in reply to a Spam post.

Continuously spamming unrelated threads with the same question IS a violation of the Terms of Use. Anybody can sue anybody, so I won't say they can't sue, but it will be a frivolous suit when it is...

How has a Mod silenced you? I haven't seen that any posts have been deleted. I show that the system forced some posts to be Moderated before they were made public. That's not anything a Mod does. ...

I deleted the posts and closed this thread because the replies were misleading. That is because 15 of the 16 replies were by the same person.

It appears that the mugshot was removed from that web site. There's nothing I can do to fix it.

No, just sometimes an ad in the first post makes the first post where you can't read/see it.

Sorry about that. I need to get our IT guy to look into it.
