I have to say that I was not really surprised about the way that this post turned out. I could see where it was going after how it started with the negative comment (that turned me off) "don't even ask". I don't want your VIN# but, don't ask a question and insult us by implying that there is a lack of trust especially when you are the one asking for help. I always worry about how a group can experience a complete change over infighting. I do not wish to contribute more towards this fight but there was a comment made that I felt that I needed to address, Dan said something in reference to "adding this to Profiles" I want to know if that was a direct "dig" to one of my previous posts. If it is, then let your feelings be known, say it, if not, then I took it the wrong way. I like knowing who I am talking to. If I post something,work on a project,or build something then I put my name on it so people know who they are dealing with. I expect that from myself and I expect that from people that I deal with. I noticed that this negative post originated from a new forum poster who did not list anything about him/herself(s) and I have a problem with that. If somebody wishes to come on this forum and ask a question then I feel that they should let us know who is asking the question. This board is comprised of a group of friends who love this hobby, it is not a "hit and run"or a "get some extra info" and leave" bulletin board. If someone has this negative view ,well, feel free to leave any time the spirit moves you to do so. We don't need that kind of attitude here.I just want to remind all of the core members not to give up and quit because of some fly-by-nights that come in and ruin our group and then jet off to something else. Like I said before I have not met Kevin nor have we spoken on the phone but, I have friends that have, friends that trust implicitly who state emphatically that Kevin is a man of his word. I believe that! Do not attack him and question him and then question him about his explanation about his integrity. That is not right and it is not fair.
