Adios Charger forum

[mystarcollectorcar.com]

It's no secret that I was flagged by other members for starting threads with links to my site but I'm past the point where I feel like apologizing.

Typically this has been really well received on other forums because we are, above all, a car guy site not a kiddie porn site.

Some of you guys seem to have problems making a distinction between the 2 concepts...

Other sites have seen this as value added to their own sites-in fact we receive a lot of positive feedback for this effort.

But not on DodgeCharger.com and that, to me is really disappointing because I bleed Mopar - and have since the late 1950s before I even started school. I could see being treated like a leper on a Ferrari forum because my site really doesn't cover that stuff-we're a blue collar site and every day I talk to blue collar guys about their cars.

Not here-I couldn't even post a topic about Kurt Busch coming out of nowhere to win the All Star race without the thread degenerating into a lecture for posting the results of the race.That's wrong.

I was excited about the win and I wanted to share that with fellow Dodge guys on a Dodge site- a "criminal" act because I didn't think about the guy who was so unmotivated about the results that he didn't watch it live and came to this site before watching the race.Hence, I was called a dumbass...

Anyhow-every site whether it's mine, or this one, is driven by traffic and forums are always looking for new members.How you expect to keep new guys around is anybody's best guess but I would highly recommend that you guys retract the knives and don't treat this site like your personal kingdom.

I will always be a 100% MOPAR guy-not even the crap I've seen on this site will change that but I have to admit I'm really disappointed with what I've seen here-that's why I'm pulling the plug on my membership here.Running a site is a big job and getting into ridiculous debates is counterproductive.

Anyhow,I'm logging out for good so any feedback about would have to come through my site under contact so don't PM me-nobody's home.

My dog thanks you for ending your agenda driven participation.

[bull]

I missed the transition from apologetic to spiteful. Looks to me like you should have just stuck with apologetic.

[SFRT]

does this mean more bandwith for me to post more pics of my car? COOL!

[elacruze]

Nobody ever said Charger owners are mainstream, even amongst Mopar fans.
Life goes on.

Jerry, Do the letters  "F O" mean anything to you ?

[Darkman]

I think what's done is done. The guy has left the forum, so there is no need to continue to attack the guy.

We all have run in's from time to time I don't think it's worth leaving over that.
Stick around this is a good site 

[Khyron]

I've never had one negative comment to make, kinda liked the links..... but damn, my 17 year old throws tantrums like this.

don't let the E-Door hit you in the tush....

*EDIT* ohh and Jason Rittner. Don't understand the hiding behind names thing, But if it makes you feel any better.

Isn't that the definition for a parasite.

In his defence, the particular topic where the latest incident began he didn't provide a link to his own site.  It appeared he was trying to make an honest attempt to participate in this site but he made the mistake of going doing it with a NASCAR thread and he ended up making a whole new group of friends (folks that I might add did not take part in attacking him for just trying to direct traffic to his site).  About the only thing he could have done with equal controversy would be to start a topic about the DOH or the GL.  It's the two areas that comprise the Charger world answer to politics and religion.

Yes, I do hide behind a username and I don't have to tell anyone why.  My reasons are personal but it isn't out of fear of Jerry Sutherland.  Not likely to be guilted into either.  For the same reason I don't have a public link to my personal e-mail in my profile.
And no, I'm not in the mafia or witness protection or anything like that.

I guess that's goodbye.

dont let the actions of the few dissuade you from further participation.  we all have learning curves in the "forum" world.  I went through mine, just like everyone else has done either here or another forum.

[ramit]

And what's the deal with that 4 door they call a charger anyways?

Sounds like the kid who would go home with the football because you tackled him too hard.

why do you insist on badgering this dude... just let it go.   you keep adding fuel to the fire.. you understand that right.

Two wrongs don't make a right, but saying nothing just ensure's the same outcome.

So I am saying something now.  Your petty bickering and bantering now is only going to make things worse.  It is time that you stepped up to the plate and became the better person and just let this dead dog lie.
