I should have listened to you all, what a pathetic group of losers over there, I was just trying to talk about new ford trucks and we get mister smart alecs from every which way. I blew up and hope they bann me. I asked to get removed from the subscription, there is no contact information for the moderators on their profiles, WAY TO GO GUYS!!! KMA! I hope that place dies a slow painfull death

Yep Shawn I've seen this over and over on message boards I have been on since the mid 90's. Goes something like this:

"You know that THING over THERE, well that just plain blows!!!"

"What thing, over where?"

You know,, the THING, over THERE!!

"

"WTF thing over where?"

"THAT THING OVER THERE!!! ARE YOU BLIND!!!!"

"This is a message board, and I'm not a mind reader"

"WELL!!! IF YOU PEOPLE ARE SO STUPID YOU DON"T KNOW ABOUT THAT THING OVER THERE>>> I"M LEAVING!!!"

no sense posting one of those pesky links or anything, so someone might have a clue what it is they're on about

yes thats the one. EFF the TE
I just thought I would talk about my new truck since they have a area designated for it. I log on, get 12 PMs from the past year from some goofball trying to sell me crap for mytruck. then I get my shit jumped because I tried to explain to some moron about how to Bracket Race correctly. then the post hounds jump in looking for post counts, and a moderator that doesnt even have contact information on his profile. they have goofy retarded advertisements popping up , Banners all over the sides. nobody controlling anything on there, blah blah blah
Same fgoes for Ford fun Weekend, one year from my intorduction I get a spam mail and decided to sign on, I looked at my previous posts and not one reply for a welcome. so I mention that and Get more PMs to join another website because everyone left there. Atlaeast slicks and my local truck clubs and Drag racing websites are run correctly. I know some of you guys arent happy with some of the technical issues on here. and I know its something that has to be fixed and I know the guys runnig it are out working hard making a living, but they will get it handled eventually. Atleast we can all give each other crap and know it all in good fun
Yes Johnny, over there --- > that thingy

The big problem there is damage done from lame replies people get, while believing a fruitcake running them some "jerk off explanation" might knows something about anything.

One of the biggest PITAs in my life as a line mechanic/ service tech, was parts people with a attitude and their "book" thinking they could perform the repair operations [NOT].

I often wonder how many Newbies, NFGs & beginners wind up crushing vintage Fords because something they got told wasted it somehow. . . .

I quit correcting peoples mistakes when I quit teaching. That's what I did after I got burnt out on working / doing things, after most my life.

But I got tired of arguing with posers who remain clueless in both cases, teaching & the no name location too. Why Bother with the aggravation?

I don't need grief, anger, or High Blood Presure either. I've considered going in another forum over there because there were no idiots in it, well not 'zactly, there were idiots from time to time but they got skunked out royally by the moderator early on. Then others piled on. The idiots quit. It was a not too popular model FoMoCo I happen to like( equipped right) that the other Forum I used to go to is. I still scope it from time to time. When they squirted out John then Banjopicker I knew I was on their short list. Mr Pain, Geez I hope I spell that right. . . wanted me out SO

bye SEE YA!

How's that for instant PAIN Relief?

I Agree Pete, I like to help others when I can and message boards are great for that. As well I see and learn from others, cool and crazy ideas both.

Our local Drag Racing Website http://www.coloradodragracing.com/index.php
is a good place to check out for good reliable information and fun. Our moderators eliminate the BS right off the bat. slicks is not a newer truck website so I thought I would try it out over there. I should have just listened to you guys LOL

I still need to check out fordification. I dont think I have even looked over there just trying to keep up with what I have on my plate already

Indeed. Clarity is a good thing on a message board. Especially, when you are sarcastic like me and sarcasm is VERY hard not to mistake for something else on a message board.

Luckily the boneheads and posers (like me) here are generally corrected by wiser and more salty dogs who really do know their stuff. Unfortunately, on the fettee site, the guy running the place is himself a know it all, and seemingly likes to be surrounded by them. When they lose people of the quality of Banjo and Pete you know something is rotten in Denmark.
