    DF and presidential were very hands off
    DF was out trying to find another six-pack or one of his 100 non-running junk cars stashed around the L.A. Basin.

    And I was "there" . . . sort of . . . HRM was too "elitist" for my taste . . . I freestyled (READ: pontificated ad nauseam like a basement-living jackass) with the JY-shopping "bad element" over on the Car Craft board. http://forums.carcraft.com/70/668919...-arent-stupid/

        UH, OH . . . Boogie just touched the H.A.M.B. third rail . . . comparing it with any other board.

        [summoning up my best "Squirrel" impression] H.A.M.B. is highly-exclusive . . . Even thinking wrong (not "trad") thoughts, such as using a speed part conceived after 1965 or cavorting with a "late model" (e.g. 1970) is grounds for "the censor" and ostracism.

        YB is the place where seemingly all of the unemployed, narcissistic "petrolhead" bullies, gadflies, semi-pro trolls, expelled high schoolers, amateur pornography auteurs and other anti-social misfits engage in an endless, sludgy river of junior high insults, call-outs, and histrionics . . . leavened occasionally by free hot rodding and racing advice (most of which is likely wrong or, at best speculative) . . . with a few professional rodders fishing for customers, racing "marks" and "rep" on the side.

        [OKAY, that wasn't really like Squirrel would have said it, but I don't remember the simple, direct words he used to scorchingly lambaste me with I ignorantly made the same comparison]

              I am a member on the HAMB, YB and here. Much like here I am a lurker on the other two sites. However BS is by far the best, you don't get flamed for not thinking a certain way and you don't told to hit newb thread and get ready for a cactus

              I like the no holes barred style of YB. However sometimes it does tend to get a little sophomoric. I would really like to meet some of the YBer's in person to see if their internet persona is an accurate depiction of themselves.

              The real only reason I am a member on the HAMB is to use the PM system to talk to one of my high school buddies. I think I have only posted two or three times on that site.

              I sure hope BS never sells.

                  and that those sections are moderated.

                  Internet Brands and Autoguide/Verticalscope are the destroyers of everything good.

                    I really always admired the TOBT section because literally anything goes. You can have a thread about helping out a sick kid, with a daily bible verse thread right above it and a NSFW most beautiful vagina thread right below it. It's chaos, but in a freakish dare I say 'civilized' manner.

                    Autoguide will probably tell everyone that "you can keep your forum they way it is" for now, then slowly assimilate it into compliance. Sounds strangely familiar..... Lol

                      When I went to YB this afternoon, I saw they were starting a Build section- which is what I had been pushing for with Monte. I thought he had given in finally. But no... hopefully the new management will be ok.
                      Why think when you can be doing something fruitful?

                              what he said!

                              My point about TOBT is the entire site is judged by that one forum... and there is soooooo much more there. TOBT is a testimony to freedom, no doubt. I don't spend a lot of time in there, but it seems amazingly well self policed for being so wheels off. The tech sections have some heavy hitters sharing information and experience that I can't buy. It's like a fully inventoried library with a big kids lounge. I'd hate to lose that.

                                I agree, there was actually lots of very smart folks hidden in the mess over there. You could post a question on about anything and receive some good answers, even in TOBT.
