Me Neither.I don't even understand the point of this joining and never posting thing.
Guess I've been on a couple sites like that in the past. Dakota-Durango (because my DD is a '96 Dakota) and eventually gave up because I couldn't stand all the arguing and putting down, insults, etc that I kept reading on there. None to me personally but still. I always try to stick with the thought that you don't post anything on-line that you wouldn't say to the person face to face. Maybe I'm just too nice and easy going type of guy but that's my stand I'm sticking to it!
Was on Mopar Muscle for awhile but got the feeling that if you didn't own an A-B or E body you weren't welcome. You know, like an F (or M and J) body isn't a "real" Mopar.
Most times it all comes down to the people in charge. If they have rules AND enforce them, it's usually a good site to be on. If a member gets out of line too many times they get banned. One site I'm on you get one warning, the second time and you're gone which keeps it a very comfortable site to be on. Only "insults" or the like are strictly in fun and everyone knows it. Kind of like this one!
I figure my dad has been gone 12 years now. I only had grabbed granules of his knowledge. Without the vast knowledge of the members of this forum, that one man could never possess, me and others would be hitting our heads quite often in our quest to get our mopars going. Once disrespected little siblings of Chargers, cudas, and GTXs........ the F bodied mopar, along with M and J is coming into its own. I was in a gathering last night with GM numbers high and 20 mustangs. One 69 rag topped roadrunner. Both old and young were drawn to my Volare'. Only my coworkers 68 camaro with an LS 6.0 and 6 speed had as much draw. I mean I was next to a 427 vette and he had no draw. More and more the FMJ mopar will be the affordable platform for the enthusiast. I'm trying to get the local evening news out to the next ice cream cruise. Our local networks have some real attractive out on the town reporters (female type). I like to throw keys in the hands of reporters in skirts...... for the exclusive on what an FMJ mopar isPersonally I don't mind debate or a little playful banter. But anyone insults or gets nasty with a member and you are shown the door pretty quickly.
I am not nor do I ever claim to be an expert by any stretch. I love this place because I learn from great people who know more than me. That's what it's supposed to be all about isn't it?
