I am not much for eloquent words, nor was I an A grade student in school.........but I know when something is starting to take a certain feel, smell...call it what you want.......
I noticed that more and more people are joining this Forum...........and more and more people take everything here for granted..........have we all forgotten, or do we need to be reminded that it takes money to run this place.........have we forgotten that when you take from IT....one needs to replenish IT too?........ I look around this place and I see people here for years without any $ contribution......is this the way of killing the goose that laid the golden egg? I know why I come to this place.....my information for the love of the car....how, why, and what can I do about it......if I have a problem, I come here to discuss it, maybe see whom else has had the same problem........maybe a cure in the works...and much much more..........yet...I see more and more people in here assuming that it's all for free....great place....as long as I dont have to pay for it...isnt it?..........Well, this is not a very good example for the nubies that are joining on a regular basis.........the guys that have been here, made friends, made the rally's, you know who you are........about making an effort to become a subscribed member and maybe, just maybe, the new guys may just follow in your footsteps........it isnt mandatory.........but if this keeps up..it will have to be.
Ya, ya,,, listen to the old guy, he's ranting and raving........except that it's all true.........wake up........be one of the regulars....give a little, take a lot.........you know who you are........
