xx29440charger

all of his posts are now.. well.. gone?  did someone upset him and now this is his reaction or is it something else?

[Magnumcharger]

Maybe he never really existed??

I made mention about him starting threads that had already been covered a few times (yes I know, I'm guilty of that in the past). I was mainly refering to the "Lets see some before and after pictures of your Charger restoration" thread but I don't know my comment directly caused him to leave? If it did, then that's pretty odd but?

[chargerboy69]

Way to go Cody.    You were not rude about it, just honest.  He just needed to hit the search button and the same threads he started have been done several times before.

It really is hard to tell if you've pissed off somebody on a forum or not, when they just up and leave like this...

Too many have a "Keyboard Cowboy" mentality when they know full and well, if they were face to face with said person they would NOT in a million years, say what they posted on the forum...With all this said, if people would simply police themselves a little harder and look at their posts to make sure that there's any  possible way that it could be considered inflamatory....We really do not know who we are dealing with...This is not only here, it is on Every forum I'm a member of..For the most part, most of you guys are pretty cool to a newbie like myself..However, there are those that I prefer to just not reply to...Too many want ot be the "Alpha Dog" in the conversation and this almost never works...IMO, there's a way to say something on a forum and not piss anyone off. All you have to do is post as you were talking to your boss at work...

[twodko]

Respect, maturity and a sincere desire to help and/or contribute. This "one up-manship" crap is just that IMO.

it kinda seemed like he just googled "questions to ask on a car forum" and made a bunch of threads out of it...hm...

[tan top]

 wondered what was going on ..  all the post names were replaced with some sort of morse code .---...

Maybe he never really existed??

is this an X-Files thing?  Where is Moulder and Scully when you need them?

 mmmmmmm Scully yumyum  

[69bronzeT5]

Now he changed all of the titles of his threads to "Who will be the next president of the usa? Lets talk politics"......

[chargerboy69]

I just noticed that to. . .  WTF? 

[CB]

just posted in his ''who's the next president'' topic and then saw Jamey posting this one.
Strange dude...

[lisiecki1]

looks like he's trying to get all of his threads locked or deleted according to the disclaimer on the top of the home page 

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

They have been changed back because a few of the topics were pretty active.

Seems as though in one of his last topics someone told him to "stop" posting so many topics & he took a little offense to the comment.

Oh well, I guess his internet skin wasn't thick enough to man up about it.   no harm, no foul....carry on....nothing to see here

LOL.. ok.. thanks buddy.. was confused when I saw the posts last night.  Now where is that <---- there it is "nothing to see here, keep walking and whistling mister!"

[Khyron]

wow, thought i logged on to moparts by accident.....

damn, i missed it, and cody, your a big bully!

[Brock Samson]

 I was chatting with him and MoparManJim, a few nights back, turns out he lives pretty close to MidPenMopars (AKA Stu) and just a few miles south from me,  I have seen his B-5 Blue and white '70 383 around for a few years...
I think what happened was he found the site and just started posting without doing any searches or really introducing himself to anyone... Or posting any photos...

his second thread states:

"Thank you very much my Charger brothers! This website is excellent. My first car when I was 16 was a blue 68 white hat special with a 383 magnum. The car was fully restored...I must have polished that thing 1 million times and no car in school could even touch me. I loved that car, but I sold it. I have always loved Chargers ever since seeing my brother pulling up in his forest green 69 when I was like 4 years old. I am currently restoring a 70 383 big block numbers matching car. It was such a big relief to get another Charger. Every time I would see a Charger on the road or in the movies, I would kick myself in the pants for selling my other one. What an empty feeling that was. It was like seeing your x prom queen girlfriend from high school years later, but now she is a movie star and you are like, wow....how did I let that get away from my life?  "


So I thought it strange he'd take the xx29440 moniker when he doesn't actually have one,.. so I asked him about it and found out he never read the thread (Santa Cruz Cruise) he was posting in,..
So I suggested he actually read the thread. I was very nice to him really - figuring I should give him the benifit of a doubt - so I was actually quite polite...   Not my normal A&$ H)!@ ^&*$) smart aleck Mr Know it all self You guys are so enamored of...                
That's the last I saw of him...  
 then,..
 One by One,..
 The stars started going out...  

[RD]

well, if that was the worst that happened to him.. between what you had stated and what cody stated.. maybe he is just an extremely sensitive feller who doesnt understand the overall climate/environment of this here board of nutsos?

[Silver R/T]

Ive seen that too, not sure what happened

[NHCharger]

Shows he registered last August. Never noticed him until last week when half of all the threads started in the Charger forum had his name on them. Thought he was going to give Bull a run for his money
And Cody, I find it hard to believe you ever double posted a topic

Great quote from "The nine billion names of God"... I've always loved that short story.

So it was you that chased him away.     Maybe we'll see him around and then you can apologize properly...

I got picked on for that......that's why I posted suggesting he search up common threads before making new ones. Notice how I try my best to search to see if a thread already exists and I don't get picked on for making double ones anymore?

[A383Wing]

There are still plenty of other things we can pick on you about...don't worry

[Brock Samson]

 God bless you Dan for ever having read a book... 

[Khyron]

God bless you Dan for ever having read a book... 

who's he kidding, it was in readers digest.

Well, as the New Guy is not around, and we are already off-topic, "The Nine Billion Names of God" was already a short story so it was well within my attention span.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Nine_Billion_Names_of_God. Authur C. Clarke had a gift.

[Khyron]

I'm waiting for the pop up book version

[BB1]

I myself am glad.  Not that I read anything he wrote.

I live about 5 minutes from Stu and I have never seen a blue and white '70 Charger in my city. 

[Brock Samson]

  Welp, Once I asked he posted a small pic of his blue and white '70 and I recognised it right away,.. it's got a multicolored stripe on the back probably done with tape.
