Hey! We occasionally reference an owl or post a pic of a pretty girl too."GTchris" said:I check on the forums generally every day but, seems like most of the time it's just a lot of political talk.

And something is still wrong with my carburetor.
I'll be back tomorrow.
"silverblueBP" said:Damn man, stop f'ing around with that carb and send it to Duane. He's the resident carb genie!
"GTchris" said:I'll post an update, don't want to take this off topic.
"TommyK" said:So why do I even bother coming around? Because many of the great mustang minds of VMF defected here and there is a great wealth of mustang knowledge available.

"TommyK" said:OK, at my peril I will offer some "outsider" observations:
I check in here maybe every week or two. When I click on "unread posts" probably 50% or more are about something other than mustangs. This is almost as bad a ratio as the mustangsandmore site.
There is very much a club atmosphere here with a lot of inside jokes. Having said that I find much of the humor here very entertaining.
So why do I even bother coming around? Because many of the great mustang minds of VMF defected here and there is a great wealth of mustang knowledge available. And I like a good laugh. Well, that and the Daily Thong thread.
Going back into the shadows now.

I think you are missing the whole point of why so many people have decided to call this home rather than some other forum. Aside from the wealth of knowledge of the members here, this is just a great group of people from all corners and walks of life who happen to share a common bond...and yes one or two inside jokes. I guess it might appear as a "good ole' boy club" but if anyone spends a little time here it becomes quite apparent that the club is very inclusive. Just look at some of the new "regulars" that have been accepted in! I'm quite sure their own families don't talk to them."bravenrace" said:I think you make good points. Even though I haven't posted much here until recently, and don't actually know many of the people, I'm familiar with a lot of them from the many years I participated on the VMF. If it wasn't for that, I'm not sure I'd stick around because of the lack of actual Mustang talk and all of inside jokes, many of which I don't get either. Silverblue makes a good observation that this is likely due to most people here already knowing pretty much everything about these cars (they aren't really all that complicated). But if a newby comes in and observes for a while and all he reads are threads on thongs, politics and inside jokes, why would he stay (well, except for the thongs)? Mark says get more newbies to come in, and that's great, but maybe we should talk about the best ways to do that (if that is in fact what people want), because I really don't see this forum as presenting itself as a place that welcomes newbies. I don't mean that the people aren't friendly, but it does seem like a good old boys club, and that usually turns outsiders off.
"GTchris" said:Yeah, I suppose it was.
Who is Duane by the way?
"Horseplay" said:That and there are some really messed up people here.?
A couple very important points."bravenrace" said:Mark says get more newbies to come in, and that's great, but maybe we should talk about the best ways to do that (if that is in fact what people want), because I really don't see this forum as presenting itself as a place that welcomes newbies.
