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.

I am not surprised by that. They have this rule, that you can't "advertise" anything outside of the classifieds unless you're a sponsor. That means no links to businesses in your sig, no WTB or FS in your sig, etc.
There are probably 100 or more people that post there regularly that are not site sponsors that have links to their own businesses in their sigs, and some try to peddle their stuff in the forums. I just don't like that certain rules don't apply to everyone over there.

I enjoy CE over there, but that's about it anymore... even that has gotten boring since Fishhead isn't there to post stupid stuff anymore.

Posting stupid stuff is my strong point.

I mentioned this site, that's all. If they're going to ban me for that then I don't belong there in the first place. Besides it was in the members forum so exposure was limited. I'm still waiting for Jeff to tell me what rule I broke, only one I can see is 'Business Advertising' in forum posts. Since I don't own a business and it's always been legal to mention someone else's business I'm curious to see what his response is.
They're getting ridiculously anal over there. If you mention ebay or craigslist in a post it immediately get's moved to what's it worth forum. You may just be sharing a funny ad you saw with the other members, doesn't matter it get's moved. Yet there is a post in BR about 70 cowl induction that's been sitting there all day and it really should be in the tech forums. Those guys seem to get a bug up their ass about one thing and they're all over it but ignore all the other stuff that goes on. I wouldn't want to be a mod over there, being a mod here is great, you don't have anything to do.
