Wasn't that the biggest pile of BS ever?

Would any of you guys post photos of your surgical scars, especially on your fat stomach. I thought I was gonna hurl when I first saw that. I give you guys credit, I can't even respond in threads like that or the blatantly BS threads of h83.

No....can't say I would. Sweetsie was neutered though...he might. You'll just have to shave him a bit.

Started with a thread from Pologreen, that his avatar was blurry, went into a spin about green this and that (picture below), eventually got locked by Clint Eastwood with a warning "Enough Green stuff".




Another thread comes up with a pic of a C4 on 3 jack stands and how rigid they really are. I removed 2 of the stands goofing around.



Pete colored the single jack green, posted it, and got sent to ban camp for a month.

And so began the winter of our discontent. The first of many insults on our creativity over there.

It really sucks. I'm a 10 year member there, and it wasn't always like that. I can understand a slap on the wrist if a member steps out of line (insulting another member, instigating drama, etc). I can understand it getting progressively more severe if a member willfully refuses to comply with the rules.......but summarily banning someone for posting an innocuous picture? Of a green jackstand for God's sake? Meting out discipline for referring to green cars? Pure BS.

I'm hoping that somebody that matters over there gets the message and sends a message to the mods to lay off the Nazi crap. But, until that happens, the Barn is the place to be.

They never let us have any fun

BTW.. I was in my garage for several hrs last night and Hookies is gone. I'm not sure how he escaped but my garden hose is also gone.

everything was going great. It's like they dont want anyone to have a great time or fun.

Check this out, at some point, things were so great that I bought the Lifetime Membership and I regretted it many times.

Yep. At one time CF was the place to be. I have hopes that someday it will be like that again. When Troy ran the forum it was a hoot.....you know where I'm going with that......

I look at it this way....I feel like a refugee that's been forced out of their homeland by war, famine, political upheaval, etc. You're always hoping that some day you can go back.

I will check in and post there from time to time just to test the waters and maybe actually help somebody with their car. But the fun is happenin' in the Barn these days.....

Well, I started as RC000E, like I have here. It seemed when I came onto the vette forums, everyone had kept fairly quiet about Hokies lies, but things were flairing on the SV forums. His LSx swap that he lied about.

Me and that dude started getting into it and it all blew up in that one thread....I got banned. So then I got back in with a couple names, Hokie outed me. I tortured him over at the SV forums for a while. Then I layed low with Arctic 92 and ended up holdin together. I'm still over there as Arctic 92.

Me and old Hokes went round and round...good times...good times. I posted pics from his myspace, wedding video's, info from gaming forums he'd posted. He said I was a stalker and that he had to buy a 9mm to protect himself....

In hind sight, that's pretty mild compared to what we did after that.
