I've been a forum junky for 12 years. I've long ago lost count of how much I've learned on various forums. I'm always looking at other people's ideas concerning additions to their equipment or modifications. Stimulates me. I try to share my ideas to in some small way repay those that have shared with me. It's all good.

I totally agree. Thank you by the way, in your short tenure here you've already added a few totally new mods to the library. Love those rocker guards in particular!

Yes, it's true, I may have to change my handle to a certain degree on different sites but in the end my avatar is my calling card ;-)

Thanks for the post...I got similar PMs because I apparently didn't conform to someones expectations..Unfortunately, I know of a couple of others that just didn't bother coming back. Considered it briefly myself but soon missed the highly informative info and pleasant banter.

Great place to come for RTV info.

That is crap, I obviously don't know the threads, or people involved but man... You both are very valuable contributors. Thanks for ignoring the grumpy ones out there and staying on.

Everyone has to realize there are all types of people out there, you just have to learn how to deal with each type. Life is to precious to worry about what someone says on a forum if they don't agree with you. My feeling is that I always try and take something out of every conversation. With that said, everyone have a good xmas, now that might upset someone, but I was never politically correct.

I enjoy being a member of NTT. I remember when I first joined in 2005, ( contrary to the date above- when we moved over from CTR it was messed up) There were just a few of us. Zoom first helped me with info on putting in my speedometer. Dennis and Two Guns Kanook..our much missed Muleman( who is now in Heaven testified by his last email send to me) and the many others- have made this an awesome place to ask for help and not be put down . I thank everyone for all the help I have been given in the years here. I like it here because people are usually kind. The turkeys usually don't stay around long and go elsewhere.Also It is one of the few places where I can still say God bless you.. bordercollie aka judy

I think the "talk about anything" thread has the most views per post.
There's 1394 replies and 121,576 views.
That equates to 87 views for each post in the thread.

Some of us learn more by listening instead of talking. I am glad to have so many to listen to.....THANKS

Reminds me of what my Grandpa told me when I was a teenager.

"It's better to remain silent and thought a fool rather than speak and remove all doubt".

Oh how I wish I could have heeded that advice at times in my life. :)

Hello, Keen one here, I am a lurker. I learn by reading then executing. Last weekend I replaced a half axel on my new used '07 buggy. Thanks to all who have done this before me and shared their experiences. project completed in less than two hours. It would have been less if I owned a snap ring pliers.

Keep sharing your knowledge here folks...we lurkers are thankful.
