That's cool, we had a couple of blue lobsters at one time in our aquirum.

Remember this?

Nope! Long before I came here.

But I've been a member of the Delphi forum nearly 5 years and have some 1900+ posts there. I think it's a great forum, but if you look closely you'll see that since I joined here I've made almost 3000 posts here and about 10 there.

I think those numbers speak for themselves.

I visit the Vulcan forum on Delphi and a couple others that are related to my area (Motorcycling Florida Style and Nature Coast Cruisers) and a few others. I have had some good converstations with the Vulcan people and had some great rides with the MFS and NCC people. Just like any place you go, some people are just idiots no matter what, some are great.

I just go with the flow and try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt when they get a burr under their saddle about something.

Yep this does go back. I haven't posted on the Delphi Vulcan forum in so long - can't remember when but it's been a long time. Never really posted a lot over there when I did post.

I do still go and lurk from time to time. They definitely have the pangs of a large Internet forum,,,,,time to time someone gets mad....says they're not coming back to that sight anymore etc....it happens.

Funny experience with their group...went to their get together at Bardstown, KY last year. Went on a ride with a group of them to a local brewery, on way back stopped for lunch...we (hubie and I) were the last to get our order. Folks were filtering back out to the parking lot of the restaurant as they finished. When we came out the group had already left! Had to figure our own way back to Bardstown (after making a couple of wrong turns). Little disappointed that they either did not wait on us or did not realize everybody wasn't out in the parking lot, on their bikes ready to ride after lunch. Oh well, I never mentioned on their forum. :-/

I know what you mean Blowndodge. I was on the Delphi Strictly Ace 750 forum for over 6 years and it was great. My first post on the Delphi Vulcan forum was about cam chain tensioner extenders, and the first reply I got was to say the least rude and vulgar and pretty much told me I was an idiot for asking such a question. I almost deleted Delphi from my favorites list to never return, then the next few replies to my question were very friendly and helpful. So I decided to ignore the few bad apples and enjoy the forum anyway. It is a great forum, as is this one, with plenty of good people with lots of good information, Gadgets sight is fantastic. I still see an occasional reply to someones post that is asking a question or giving a suggestion and have someone reply with nothing constructive at all, just negative remarks and verbally bashing the original poster. I still frequent the Delphi Vulcan forum because 99% of the people there are friendly and helpful. I just ignore the other 1%.

I was lucky on Delphi... my first posts there were about tires rumbling in curves.... never got bashed... Gadget himself responded and told me increase psi to 40/40... I guess they felt sorry for how stupid I was!! Next, I asked where to find an Owner's Manual, and Jasper sent me one he had for free!!! I couldn't believe it... very cool. So yes, there are good people everywhere!

Nonsense, Nico.

People that make the effort to help other people do it because they're paid or because they love to help.

...and nobody gets paid on these boards, except the people selling computer time.

macmac, this post was resurrected from the dead. It's over a year ago. Check the date I started it. Not sure why it came back but I got past it....I turned the page.

I've seen you on there in the past macmac. I know your handle there. You post good ideas and comments. I go there once a week just to peek. I post very little.

[macmac]

I missed the date oops! But then there are many others who have too. Me: I am just me where ever I go. I try to help when and if I can. With everything...

[blowndodge]

thats all anyone can ask!!! thanks for your input here for sure! How's the car tire working out. I know in Delphi you still say the jury is out... If you had to start all over again and had the money back would you do it over??
