I love this place. I log in several times a day. The site is always running, and always up to date. Things are clean and information is easy to find and factual. This is'nt just going to happen on its own. Thank you admins for running the board, thank you gearheads for sharing your knowledge with us, and thank you post ****** for giving us something to look at and/or read.

Whenever I log into this site, it takes me away from all the rest of the bs that is going on during my day. Even though there may be arguments and name calling, it is still only on the net and no one is going to get knocked out, which is always a good thing. Other forums and message boards are either too giddy giddy happy or to stuck up and their members try to be some hard asses, but BC is just the perfect fit!

Some like to call this place a 'utopia' in an offensive context. I think it is far from a utopia, since that is impossible. This site has character. Very friendly character, which you don't find on the Internet too often. It'* not just your average car forum. I agree with Twister. I spend a lot of time on here, and it is a nice getaway from normal life. If I take a break from homework or whatever, I come here. It'* a nice environment.

disagreements are fine but flaming is just stupid. If you want a perfect example on how not to act toward others when disagreeing or stating an opinion just read the guy who has the Bush/Cheney sticker in his posts under the thread about the 750 whp bonneville on club GP. Almost every one was a generalization and stupid, sounds like the guy has either a superiority complex or doesnt like Will therefore thinks the rest of us are idiots.

I think the admins, mods, and gearhaeds do a great job... I like that this board is strict. I keeps all the drama that other boards have to a minimum... I don't go to any other board because of all of there drama. They arn't as strict. We have a board here... I will always be a faithful member of BC. Even if I get a new car just because we have good structure. Everyone is easy to get along with, and everyone joins in on the posts. I wouldn't trade this site for any other... Great Job Everyone...

Thank you Ryan, I liked your comments
I wouldnt say we were strict but fair and on topic. Flamming is not only degrading it has nothing to add and therefore is off topic. I see so many boards where the original post is lost in the first reply and never comes back to the question?

Simple, really:

"As far as it depends upon you, be peaceable with all men."
"Better it is to let yourself be wronged, than it is to fight with your fellow man."

Who can guess where those came from? Whether you think it'* just a story book or not, it'* truth.

Love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control. Just seven things to always keep in mind when interacting with someone else. Trust me, they work.

I have to give a big thumbs up to the staff here. It'* just about the last place on earth to find respite from the ever-increasing insanity of this world. Keep it up, guys.
