That other forum

[MyFirstCar66]

Did anyone reach out to MidnightExpress? Unless he joined under another name I don't see him yet? Oh and LSG, Lizer?
289vert reached out to me in a PM with his email so I shared the URL.

I did.

I also noticed the avatar that a certian special kid used was that of a fictionalized young Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy movies wearing the Infinity Gauntlet glove with the stones that give the wearer power over all things in the universe. Geesh.

If we could ignore mods many of us might not be here right now.

I’m not sure if I should be offended or appreciative right now…

I converse with a forum member over there who has been extremely helpful to me and others on EFI and other stuff that I would like to let know where everybody has gone. I have a PM going but not sure how to get the information across without the axe falling. Maybe I should bide my time until the crappy cereal guy is gone?

They know where everyone has gone and are going.

Of course they do.

 

[Russstang]

Well here’s to a tall glass of lemonade for all of us.

Technically you should be apologetic. If you and Gypsy would have just played nice we wouldn’t be in this mess…but Noooo, you to have to have principles and standards and not be bent to the twisted will of another. Thanks a lot!

Guilty!

He's an expert at this you see, we know he is because he told us he was.

Spot on.

Did you see my post on this topic?

The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias where people with low ability, skill, or knowledge in a specific domain overestimate their own competence. Formalized in 1999 by psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger, this mental shortcut happens because unskilled individuals lack the very expertise needed to recognize how poorly they are performing.


Guess where he's at on the graph?

Unless I just can't find it, the thread Corn Pops made about his success is gone, as are my comments and any hint of it being there.
Ya, he's purging the place of his BS. Real tough to find much of any history of his shenanigans.

It's probably filed in the same place he put all of our "blatant disrespect for Mods" that got us banned!

 

[Master Hack]

The biggest reason I had enough. The random delete of posts that weren't rule infractions. Just letting everyone "know who's boss" ticked me off. I like it here better, he did me a favor

You can ignore them. Like GB, when you see the post is by them, skip past.

I never did pit anyone on actual ignore. Just mentally. Which might be why I was a little slow getting over here.

His remaining quote is...
"Before I get away, I thought I would share some good news with you folks. Statistics are looking great, VMF has been showing steady growth since May. This is at a time when car forums are generally struggling, so you guys are doing far better than most.

Why? Because of you! A dedicated and active membership, and a fine moderation team.Take a victory lap, you earned it."

And the chart ...

I already reached out to him, but no respond yet.

I quit going to VMF due to the wonkiness of the site. It was like having a dialup modem,,,I'd type a letter and it would grind and think, then finally input. I tried VPN on and VPN off, tried my iPad (with ad blockers) and no noticable improvement. I deleted my quick links and moved on.

While you can never go home again, I hope we can get the traffic rolling here!

 

[Master Hack]

Oh yeah I totally forgot the full page takeover ads of Royal Enfield and Virus Scan. None of that used to happen

 

[MyFirstCar66]

The ads I'm seeing on this site are CRAZY.
Very facebook-ish.

 

[Grabber70Mach]

What browser are you using @MyFirstCar66 and @KyRobb?

 

[Pittbull]

The ads I'm seeing on this site are CRAZY.

The ads here actually stopped me from joining for 2 days until I figured a way past them by using my PC. I could not get past them wanting me to install stuff while loading the site on my Samsung S23.
