As the topic says, other forums suck.

Yet another time, ive been publicly repremanded for simply trying to help a member of another forum by sending him here to find information! Freaking gay!

http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=692213

Instead of being all about helping people and providing information they choose to turn it into an "our forum is better than this forum" freakin pissing contest!

That site in particular has pissed me off several times, I have to send links to other members via PM most of the time in order to keep from getting flack. Ive suggested people hit up clubgp for their suspension issues in times past and gotten similar results. Gay I tell you...gay.

Sorry if Ive offended in homosexuals by my adjectivial use of the word "gay" I mean no harm I assure you.

It seems to be common on childish boards, Hence why I normally join long enough to get the info I need then never visit again, They're just not worth going to again.

Take the Chevette boards, They didn't know that the Chevette and Fiero shared the front suspension '83 - '87. I had the car for less than a month and figured it out. Of course when I told them that they flat out said no, And locked the topic when I started to hold their hand through the dimensions. I know where they can stick it, I'll keep my poly front end to myself then, No use letting them know how I tuned my susp then.

This is as good a place as any to say:

THANK YOU BC MODS/ADMINS/OWNER.

I've been on this here net thingy for quite awhile (since it was arpanet and I accessed it on an aircraft carrier).

You all run this forum better than ANY forum, bar none, that I have ever run across.

And to the members as well, who do everything they can to help, as quickly as possible.

The quality of this community/forum is beyond words.

automotiveforums is way to big of a site. It was the reason why I co-founded ACNA for the Aurora crowd.

That'* the experience I have had also. Look for information and someone else edits what they don't want you to see. .......................................I love BC!

Yeah I saw your post Jr. I didnt know that I was in error about the exploding intake thing, I went and edited my other post about that.

As for the rest of it, I posted again about the same time you did. It wouldnt surprise me if I end up getting banned from that forum. But Im not going to take that crap.
