Unfortunately it happens on every message board. Most people are here to share knowledge and learn more so any personal disagreements should be handled off-board. Hopefully the future discussions will be constructive and not destructive.

Tom, as you know I don't post a lot when I do, it's a question or an answer I think I know something about.
The point I am trying to make is this is for questions and answers and some B.S. This is a great sight please keep it that way. Thanks Kim Howie [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

I agree with this post about people bashing, there is no need for that. As far as stating a problem with a parts dealer (who will be nameless at this time) and deliniating the problem and posting the problem on this site, there is a definite need for that, as I will be damned if I have a problem with a parts dealer and I am not going to say anything about it. If we are all in this hobby, then we need to stick together and let these shaky parts dealers now there is a large group of car people who know what they are doing. I was dissapointed when one of the moderators on this site didn't like my post on the dealer in question, but yet people bashing and car bashing was rampant up unto this point. That made me think this site was "in bed" with the parts dealer. Anyway, let us not be afraid to tell each other about problems with parts dealers, but kniocking cars or people should be kept off the site. Joel Bruno

I'm not exactly sure what you are speaking of, but I can assure, this site is not "in bed" with anyone. This site is made up of many different people, from many locations, and from many walks of life...yet it seems to run pretty smooth for the most part. My thoughts are that "you reap what you sow", and those who knowingly do wrong will pay in the end...it all comes around. But, that doesn't mean that all of the dirty laundry needs to be aired out on this site. Communicating about "purposely made" bad business practices is a good thing, but a simple "I had a bad buying/selling experience with so and so, contact me offline for more details" is what we are striving for. I get tired of playing the "referree" in situations in which I have no business being involved, except that it takes place on a website which I maintain. I don't like to read the negative comments back and forth, and I've personally seen sites dissolve from such posts, and this will eventually run over into the hobby itself. I really don't want that to happen here, nor do I believe any one of the other members want that either.

I do think this forum should be used to share information, whether that information be positive or negative in nature. I do not think the forum should be used to level unsubstantiated acusations agains a business or against a person. If someone has a legitimate gripe, fine, let them give the reasons for their being disgruntled.

I am elated that this forum is always mature and gentlemanly. I guess it is due to the fact the members are all truely interested in the hobby and dont want to get mired down in B.S. You would be amazed how petty and imature people become
due to the fact of being able to post with anonymity on the internet.

Glad to be a part of this web site.

Thanks for all of the posts, emails and PMs. My first post was not directed at any one person. I simply wanted to do a little house cleaning. So with this in mind, we (sYc) will have a couple of rules. 1. any negative post must identify who and what it is about AND the poster must indentify themselves. Period!! We realize that negative posts can be useful, but only if done in a proper way. A good example of what is allowed was the thread by MHASSETT, concerning his dealings with J. Berry. We all knew who had posted, what it concerned and who posted it. 2. we want to encourage all posters to indentify themselves. If not, the post may be deleted. Thanks, Tom

Hi Tom, let's clear the air with my specific problem.E-mail me your phone # and we will discuss the situation. I apoligize beforehand if I seemed to direct a negative wave (for lack of a better word towards you), and I feel I can convey myself properly over the phone, as the typed word without any vocal or facial enunciation can confuse or offend.....Joel Bruno
