Every once in a while there will be some disagreements, but everyone has their own opinions and sometimes things get out of hand, that's why we have mods, they give everyone enough rope and then step in. After all, just look at all the bad things that go on in the world everyday, here we get away from the everyday bs and talk cars, for me it's relaxing.. Personally, I have met a bunch of great people here and look forward to being here for a long time.

I am scrounging any where I can trying to find deals on used parts. But if I have something that would help your project along some how, I would send it. What do you need? And dont say cash.......cuz I don't have any.......

Edit: I'm really not sure if you are serious or being a smartass considering the subjects in this thread.
If you are serious then I will help if I can, somehow. I have had a ton of support from friends on this site (moral and emotional not to mention my recent engine deal)
It's the least I can do to try and "pay it forward".
But if you are serious, I have to say I think you may find better ways to seek sponsors.
If you're just being a smartass, well I guess I fell for it.

i was basically threatend off the site via PM for disagreeing with an admin.

"People of all incomes, jobs, type get out to track all across the US to track their cars and have a good time."

it warranted this response from an admin:

Quote:
Either clean up your posts or simply don't post. It's your choice. Your holier than thou attititude with snide connotation is growing very thin.

Take this for what it is, a simple request - and not just from me, but also from many members of our community that I talk to on a regular basis.

This PM isn't a debate or a discussion.

Thanks,
If you see me on the streets say hi I'm a nice guy. But if you disagree with an admin on this site or a vendor, expect a threat. Admins name removed as a courtesy. I'm at topanga canyon north in the mall parking lot supercar sunday every last sunday, trying to sell the Mini. Come say hi and see some 12million dollar cars. Like this:

Bruce Meyer's.....

I seriously doubt you got that warning from the mod based on that one sentence.

This is the second time Steve has asked for a group hug. Either he has just recieved his medical marijuana card or maybe is still feeling the effects of some ex at a rave party. Do you think maybe some of you southern cal boys can run to Steve's house and give him a hug already?

Just kidding Steve, peace

Nice try, but that's FAR, FAR from the truth. You were threatened with removal because of how you were treating other members. Period.


Since you felt it was necessary to post a year old private message in public, manufacture a lie about the intent of that PM I sent in an effort to make me look bad, lets revisit it...


Over a year ago, you were riding people constantly about how you think someone else should be driving their car. You were doing it so much and were being so obnoxious about it that I was getting PM's and e-mails complaining about you. Up until that PM that I sent you (and you kept for over a year then posted it here in this thread), I was being nice, politely asking you to ease up on how you ran your mouth about other members. But, again, you're either slow or a slow learner and just weren't processing the message, so I had to use language and wording in that final PM so that you'd understand.


I find it oh so ironic how you were constantly on people about how they should be tracking their cars, then you never even showed at RTTC. You had some excuse about having a headache. I have to wonder if you even understand the irony of that. For months you rode members about tracking their car, the reasoning for their personal choice, and after all that, you didn't show up. All the drama you created in this community for nothing.

You're either SLOW or a SLOW LEARNER, which is it?



And since I had to defend myself for defending the community, this one is done.
