If some of you guys want to talk **** to eachother, go for it. Just don't come crying and asking me to delete stuff if you get your feelings hurt. As long as there are no personal threats, you guys can have some fun. Tony

I personally do not give a damn about what is said in the Texas section. This is the hangout. I see where you are going Mike.

I was just talking about that last night. I used to come on to see what's going on with new mods/meets. Now all I see if pictures of girls/topics. No offense if the pic is you and you use on your avatar but hell this isn't myspace!

I also agree and disagree with what your saying. First off, I see the Texas section more as a place to come and see whats happening in town(since most of the members that come on here are from HOuston), bullshit with members, get some laughs, sell stuff, and show off rides. Second, when I need tech advise I never look in the Texas section, thats why there is LT1/LS1/LS2/LS6-7/Corvette/CTS-V ect.... tech sections for help and advise. I do agree with you on the the note of the moderators acting rude and what not. Take me for example, I know I pissed off a mod a while back because my Posts count has been frozen to 1460 posts, its been like that for the past year, I can post 10 new post and I wont change, but I dont care anymore.

I've blown up a lot of stuff so I'm here to give advice if people want it. If I buy another FORD vehicle they probably will void my warranty the minute I hit the street with it.

Well, don't go to the Street Racing Section and talk anything bad about Fords, more specifically 03/04 Terminators, unit will ban your *** in a heartbeat.

EDIT: I've only read the first post so this still might not be ontopic



The thread Mike mentioned in the first post also bothered me a lot also.

I was pretty suprised at some of the people in that thread and it was pretty pathetic.

Agree w/ the poster, texas section has been a bunch of BS for a while now which is alright w/ me, but a few of the mods here must have got their *** kicked a lot as kids which is why they enjoy moderating.
