Ya, that thread over there is really going gangbusters. :suicide:
Twenty posts and 8 of them yours.
Guess, there isn't all that much interest in rehashing over there either. :crutches:

You know, this is just like some loudmouth A-hole in a pub.... You know one of those annoying loud knowitalls standing at the bar trying to pick a fight with everybody .... after they got the boot you find them whining outside the pub telling everybody how terrible that pub is ... To bad if nobody listens to that guy, now the whining gets even louder...

the best reason of all to stuff them in their own, private hole - maybe then I'll never again hear "oh, you can never do that.... back when dirt was new and God was just a wee tot I did x and it failed!"

The joint was Alt.Auto.Corvette part of what I think is now defunct UUnet chat groups, I found it back in '95 just a few months after buying my shark, and selling the '87 vette....I did manage to find the AACorvette group some years ago, but there is no activity.....
edit.....Isn't it AMAZING how far the tech has gone on the net in what near 18 years.....cripe if CARS did that, we be flying back and forth across the atmosphere.....

That's it. What a place, I do remember getting some help with my 68 back then. Charles posted a pic of his speedo at 200 and claimed he snapped it while driving. Maybe when sbg get up to 180 in his c3 he can post a similar pic.

Huh?
Holy **** I can't believe this.
I have no clue what all the internal ******* are that people are talking about. And I don't care. I have no idea what behind the scenes **** "Larry" or "Marck" or "The Moderators" are doing. I don't really even know for sure who all is behind VM. I have no idea what's going on with Bird or others who I may or may not have noticed don't post here as much as before. I don't post here very much anymore either, I have a life outside of internet forums which takes most of my time & energy.
Regardless of all that, I will say I do appreciate VM very much. Whether or not I say anything, I still do check in daily just to see what's going on. I appreciate very much the technical articles and discussions (and yes the spirited OT debates, although I have decided not to get involved in those as much anymore). I have and still do glean a lot of good help from these pages. I really don't care about wings or splitters or turbos or body mods or spider lights or 6-link rear ends but I respect the time and energy and work that people put into that sort of thing. Just like I don't care for 63 Impalas with fancy madonna airbrush paint jobs, hydraulics and window-rattling stereos, but I can respect the work & dedication of those who do.
I very much appreciate the work and dedication and time "The Moderators" (Private Owners) of VM put into this endeavor without compensation other than satisfaction on behalf of everyone who partakes of it.
This is not a commercial for-profit forum, it is a private forum created by a few dedicated people who wanted to create a place for other like-minded people to share ideas. As with any public place, as it grows it will evolve and change. The clientele will change, that is evolution, and with it, subjects discussed. Johnny-come-latelys will arrive, make a big noise and then fade away. Problems will arise and hopefully pass.
I can hardly believe what this thread has turned into. I have been checking in on it because I too cannot help but stare at overturned cars by the roadside.
If some of you are so dissatisfied with VM now--"what it has become"--then I suggest you take the effort to start your own forum, as these men did, or go elsewhere. Turn in your colors and start your own club, or dissapear over the horizon. Or take up your grievances with 'the management' in private, offer to help and thus implement the ideas you have. If 'management' refuses, well, nobody is forcing you to stay. Throwing public hissy fits like a sugar amped 4 year old does not earn respect.
That's enough, I got other more important **** to do now.

Yankee Lady and I conversed a few times back and forth, I THINK she tried to do a forum of some sort but never got the software or circulation together enough, but she did precede CF by some months as I RECALL...
I set here scratching my ass, and I think she maybe put some pix of my car on the air once......but don't quote me on that.....maybe it was someone else....maybe I sent some and never published.....:bonkers:

Wow I did not know that I had left being from calif and all. I do check in at least 2 times a week or more. And have enjoyed the good info I find on this fourm. Like everyone else
On this forum I have my own problems and as for my self I don't post as much as I think I should. But if I need I can find any info I need and I though that's what this fourm is about.
As far as adding a new forum I have met newbies that can show me a better way so no that's one more I have to read. I think the off topic fourm is for what ever, and if you don't like it don't read it. It was for all other crap and no one should take it seriously. Politics or religion always cause problems..... As far as marck he can do what he wants he is paying for this whole thing. as for old timers I don't know what that is it can't be me. It must be gene he replys on everthing. No matter what. We can all complain but what's happing here is not right. I still like to go on all the other forums and have friends on all of them. Yea some time I create **** but I try not to cause enyone to not like me. even knowing they will never know me.
Well that's all. I hope all the good knowelge keeps coming in.
Ps I am not good at writing so ignore the the typos its me.

Well I just wasted 15 minutes of my life reading this crap. All I have to say is, "WTF, over?"
I'm glad the (remaining) people on here tolerate my dumb questions so I can get questions answered. It is appreciated by some, for sure. So thanks!
