My point exactly!!
Hey it is not 1/2 as bad as it could be. For the most part they do a fine job I think.....But I would be willing to tongue wrastle you for it :D Oh and i am keeping the Copenhagen in Bastage :p
 
Shawn....
Thank You for the post. Your obvious concern and care for the longevity of the site, and the balance that you maintain, are perfect examples why we need you here. :rock:
I am so glad to see you back ...and hope and pray that we can accomplish these goals, share the respect for each other, and continue in a forward direction.
I certainly hope that I have not dis-respected anyone here over the course, and apologize if I did...certainly not my intention.

Thank's Shawn,

Ken

Thanks Shawn... and the thoughtful remarks come easy when I think of You.
Your presence provides a peace, confident, and knowledgeable atmosphere that anyone could benefit from....I certainly did.
Thanks for the "talk" last year at the Nationals....:rock: I continue to try and be a better person as a result of it.
I so hope that I can make the Nat's this year... seems so long ago that we were there... and I had the honor of meeting you and some of these great people.... not sure I could handle 2 years of not seeing everyone again.
:(.
We are still on the day by day routine around here..so we will see how this all pans out.:dontknow:

Have a great day!:)
 
Okay, time for a couple comments.

Post Counts. Maybe it is time to do away with them as there are some that revel in flaunting their post counts. There is one thread that I now avoid as it's impossible to follow any longer with the one word posts and pages upon pages of single members just posting post after post.

Okay, enough of that subject. Next. A lot has been said about respect and respect for members with low member numbers. Bull shit. Just because I have a low member number does not mean I automatically deserve respect from a new member.

As the old saying goes, respect is earned. Now I need to elaborate on that remark. There are a lot of members here that I hold in deep respect. They have earned that respect. Now does that mean that the new guy that just signed up does not deserve to be respected? NO! That person also deserves to be treated with respect the same as everyone else, unless they do something to not deserve that respect. And I believe we all know the types that I'm talking about there.

All I really know is I'm damn glad Shawn has returned and all is well in the universe again.

As a "Nicky New Guy" # 911. I joined this website to learn more about my truck and to share experiences with like minded individuals. (other truck owners). I felt the rest was "for entertainment value". The gentleman who is responsible for this post is one of the reasons I enjoy this website. He has an inherent instinct for fairness. A "wisdom", if you please. There are many other members I "follow", because I enjoy their witticisms. (Yes, especially Mr. Sickness). I have PMed many for info., help, and personal thanks. I am excited about meeting as many of you as possible at the Nats. (a place I would never have known about, until I joined this website). I will always strive to earn my place among the "Pioneers" who forged a path for others to follow. (I'm just glad I'm not the only lunatic out there to spend close to 50k on this truck!) I belong to NO other website or blog. If any of the "senior" members feel I do not have the right to speak my piece here, I apologize for wading in, where I may not yet belong. Anyway, my three rules of public speaking, Be brief, be sincere, be seated. :)

I cant stand it i have to say one thing...........


I think the whole damn senoir, post count, I been here longer thing is crap!


Joemags I am no better than you because I have been here longer, yeah some of us have allready endured the torture of making the mistakes and rebuilding, and some do have some good experience of knowledge.

But because their are some that started with the site, or come from the other site, that doesnt give us privelages that the new guys dont.

We should set an example for the new guys, we do alot of kidding here and have a ton of fun, some like it some dont, it just takes a little time to figure which you want.

Then we have some new guys that get in trouble because they are following the lead of a senoir, so the seniors need to be careful on how they approach new people until they get a taste for the site.

I just feel that everyone should be treated equal here and all should stand proud that we are part of the best forum on the net:rock:

Due credit where it deserves.... Thank you Silverback... I agree with you 100%.

Hell, I am just glad to be part of this place. I could care less about post counts. But we should all have the Viper Powered status :). Except Mikey due to his sickness.;)
 
Glad you are back Shawn....You are a hell of a guy...:rock: BTW..tell your mother that my nephew is graduating this week (he is only 3, but he is excited and so am I)....I will post pics to send to her.......
Welcome back buddy.:burnout:
 
Glad to have you back ILTEMPRD. I don't really post alot because of all the bullshit in here. I come here for fun. I can think of a dozen people here that make it so this site is addicting. I can also think of a few people that act like throbbing cocks. So it is easier to to kind of "Lurk" around to read the post of the few that make me laugh instead of posting and worrying who is going to stab you in the back and make you feel like you don't belong. Most of them are new members like me but there are a few that are old members. As Silverback and Stinker have said above respect is earned not demanded for both new and old members. The post counting is retarded because it is not important. If I have angered any members in the past I appologize. With our help ILTEMPRD can clean this place up and make it feel more like home.

I think what Stinker did was to translate it to "Redneck Hillbilly" for some of our other members.:D :p :rock:
