Default And they complain about my posts.

Yeah,I'm naming names here. Seems at Team Chevelle there is a do as I say not as I do double standard. Yes, it's going down hill fast. As a lot of you here know,I have put up with a lot of abuse there for a while. My main problem being friendly and liking to joke around.Sooooo many have told me this is a car related site and maybe facebook is the place for me. As always,I make light of the jabs and the mean statements,never striking back but laughing at it. I realize there is a lot of grease monkey mentality there.Guys don't take that statement the wrong way,you know what I mean. Even though I'm an owner manager of a business,I'm still a car salesman,not educated but I know how to treat people the right way. The latest car related threads have been about using proper grammar,talk about looking down on people,please give me a break. Then there was the argument about me not being a member of the hobby because I don't know what kind of freaking heads were on my car. For you that read that,I think I kept my cool pretty well. And now we have the best ever double standard thread of the year-How often does your wife give it up? Really? Now that is definately car related in my book.Hey they say this is internet,but for my friends I've made on both sites I am what I type,no bs the real deal.Iv'e made a lot of friends and talk to a lot on a regular basis and even met a few in person,but Team Chevelle is starting to get old,it's like I'm paranoid to post anymore.I honestly hope I never meet some of the people there. Sorry for the rant which is unusual for me, a one liner type of guy. Don't care who reads this or what happens,just been pent up for a while I guess. Opinions wanted for a repost on TC. Oh yeah almost forgot...... You know I llike it here and the people too!

The very best thing you can do Gary is let it roll off your back. If you let faceless people on the internet get to you, they win. Just let it roll, laugh at it, and walk away. You know you are better than letting a faceless person get the better of you.

Just hang out here and leave the crap that goes on over there over there. I like it here, its peaceful and everybody is friendly, I like it this way. I learned along time ago, dont let some random person on the internet get the best of me, then I'm just a fool. You're no fool Gary, don't let it get the best of you either.

GAry let it go, worrying about what people say is not worth it. You are a good guy eventhough you like Pacificas.

Just do like I do and don't go to TC; I don't think I've been there since this site opened. I don't need all the BS that goes over on that OTHER site and it's fun here. I do know what you mean however, I've had my share of fights over there and decided it just wasn't worth it.

It's an addiction,I can't stay away. Sort of like an abused spouse who keeps going back.

I asked if they would reinstate me since I see that anyone and everyone is advertising their sites over there and no one had the balls to respond to my request...and yes I was very humble in my request.
THE ONLY reason I asked was for my friend Mark (VortecPro).
Seems the good ole boys club likes to belittle and harass everyone that does not cater to them and go gaga over their posts.

It saddens me to think that the work Al did to make it great, autoforums is screwing up faster than obama is bankrupting this country.

Soon there will be only a hundred or so members left over there all lying to each other about how great they are.

jmho and sorry if I said anything wrong.

I just don't have the time to read it all over there anymore but have not noticed a ton of people mentioning their web sites. I did not want to get banned so mentioning us over there never really crossed my mind. Got me wondering if maybe I should mention us to more over there.

I posted something in the member's section there this morning. There is a lot of complaining that TC is not what it use to be and I mentioned this site. My reply has already been deleted.
