Default Re: can someone point me to the kwhizz hotrod thre

Does anybody really wonder why moderators tend to get burned out and fade away (we miss you Bob/BelAir62!)? I've been on this board for 10 years, and have always marveled how the Tom and Rob have kept it going when logistically its always been a P.I.T.A. This is one of the least politically edited websites I've seen that still has someone watching the discourse all the time.

The '37 thread, while very informative and properly placed into the LOUNGE, pretty much had to go, whether you think Ken's broad request asked for that or not. By opting not to finish out the postings of that build and not really explaining why, it would be left hanging there as a source of controversy and confusion, which is now THIS thread.

Hopefully Ken comes back and shares the great pictures of his builds and restorations. There's obviously a lot of love for the guy posted here. But if he wants to trade all that love for a pissing match with one or two guys, that's his choice. I'll miss the photos and writeups. Plus all the tech writing was slowly exorcising him of the "tendency" to employ far "too many" of those "extra" quotation marks. Which I appreciated.

I'm a member now, I'll be a member next year. Carry on moderators.

TOM

In retrospect........I've decided not to go into detail about what happened.....Nothing good would come of it and it would just create controversy for the "Best" car site on the net......It's Tom's Bat and Ball................Life go's on..............................

I understand about how tough it is to be a moderator...heck, I even volunteered to Rob about a year ago if they ever needed another one that I was available to help out.

I am a moderator on another forum now (a much smaller site with a lot less traffic) and thankfully we haven't had any issues yet. I am sure that we will though...in due time.

I consider Tom, Rob, Steve, Joe, Brian, Frank A.(And yes, even Gags )along with Ken and a host of others my good friends. I have made lifelong friends BECAUSE of this site. You can't put a value on that.

Sometimes people say things in anger that I don't think they really mean...but they say it anyways...because they are mad. The one thing that all the issues that I've had with Holly has taught me was that 99% of the time it's just not worth getting angry.

Life is too short...

Thanks to the Clary's for a great site...thanks to the mods for the work they do...and thanks to all of the friends that I have made on this site
