Well, not the actual web-site itself, just the stupid 2,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 member forum. Every freakin time I post something, I get some jack-ass response about "this topic has already been covered, use the search." That, and some of the reg's think they are God's gift to the VW world and they know all.......Grrrrrrrr, I just wanna kick em!!!!!

Well, that's just me anyway.

I get the same vibe from the vortex. It is a good informational site, but the forums are not for me. Too much "bump..bump...bump" whatever that means. I like the small group feel of the vwf. makes me all warm and fuzzy.

I guess you can say that was another factor as to why VWF was born.

If we do get to be that size great; if not great. We are not even a year old and we have served thousands. I keep a close watch over every post here. I have only had to ban 2 people for nauty posting. When I see stuff I don't like I give warnings.

Don't worry as long as I keep my eye on things we will run smooth. OK, enough on this topic. Let's worry about us an not them. [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Sorry, I just had to vent alittle, they pissed me off pretty nicely yesterday.

Heh, if we do get that big though, you could have a little "original members" section that requires a password to get into, just for us!!!!!

Because of this thread I went and check out the VWVortex Forum and noticed a post regading someone putting 12.5 brakes into the Volfsburg 16" BBS rims. It looked like sH#%%# quite frankly but everybody on there cheered the guy up.

If you guys ever see something that you don't like about my post or pics, please tell me so. The last thing I want is fake sympathy. Deal? Bump bump ttt.? hehehe

VWF is the VW - Force.

I really don't look at the posts as much as the first 100. I didn't want to be a fresh, snow bunny, newbie, etc.

I hope you didn't see me post crap before or try to boost my posts, without a legite post...? I reply to every post I feel like replying to, that's all.

I have VWF Browser opened at all times while I am at home, by the way.
