I would be willing to bet in any of the forums, if you start a "what do you drive" thread, at least half of them are full of shit!

What really ticks me off about this whole deal with RG is that of the three main fora, they are the forum that is the most heavily dependent on new and uneducated members. And, from what I've seen, RG members are less likely to visit other fora. Thus, they are the ones most at risk from dealers like Jandrew.

BRT-- well, they deleted your post. At least it lasted about 10 minutes, which is about 8 minutes longer than the typical critical post over there.

I have not up until now said anything over there about the situation, but the comment about our Admin "fabricating" the information. I was surprised that it lasted 10 minutes. Sean, did you actually see my post?

So I read their 'what do you do?' and 'what do you drive?' threads. Amazing that people holding solid jobs, driving luxury automobiles could be so ignorant.

How did they make it so far in life?

Boggles my mind.
big BIG difference between ignorance and playing ignorant... the former will not get you very far; the latter may get you very, very far.

I did, at least for the four minutes that it was up. I don't think it made it to five minutes, though. Here's what the RG admin said in the thread after deleting your post:

This will not be a discussion of another forum or its policies. Should you wish to engage in that type of banter B, please do it elsewhere.

Thank you

I find this statement to be highly disingenuous, given that the entire post is basically aimed at RWI (and contains a number of just flat out lies and blatant misrepresentations).

Ah, well, why didn't you say so before! If the RG Admin is endorsed by TTK, I think that, in and of itself, speaks volumes about the integrity of the RG Admin and how they always put the needs of members over the needs of the dealers! I mean, if you can't trust TTK on matters like this, who can you trust?

LMFAO, WTF are you kidding me with all this censorship? RG is the biggest pussy forum there is. I usually withhold on commenting about RG cause they invited me to thier forum, encouraged me be myself but then removed sub for use of lanuage that they found offensive (I just told a little story about hats 8), seriously its total waste of time there. A forum thats on the take has no value to its members.

Thank you for your time.

the discussion of another forums policies will not be discussed here in RepGeek. Should you be in conflict with the management here, which clearly you are, you can simply open a new window and move on.

I have had enough Bobby, this all ends now.

Thanks for your time

I am only pm'ing you as you have advised. If you read my involvment in last nights thread I was asking pertinant questions on a subject which I beleived to be revelant to the members of this and all forums. I have joined all three popular forums and as a noob haven't had time to form any type of agenda but have aired my thoughts several times on all of them in all innocence, asking the mods /admins to pm me with their thoughts/attitudes on the matter to help me make an informed descision. Is that a crime?
Cheers, Bobby......NO REPLY AS OF YET...

I have said it before, If you are a regular participant over there, I understand how you feel. If this is home then don't worry about what they do. That was my only post in regards to this situation because I was very offended by part of the post. Let it go.

Sconehead-- as you can see from D4M's screenshots (posted earlier in this thread), RG was funded by Jandrew. RG's own previous administrator, Dawg, confirmed that in an IM chat. He also confirmed that RG removed TWP as a dealer at Jandrew's request. So just bear that in mind when you try to post anything there.

I pm'd J-C with my concerns (he says 'feel free to pm me') and now I can't access the board. I guess this means I've been banned/barred, as a 'noob', for asking the wrong type of questions. Ce la vie...

Not gone forever, I found it !!

Interestingly, this thread-- which lasted three whole pages before it was closed and binned--has now also been deleted. It's like nothing happened. Remarkable.

WOW, talk about chicken shit. I spoke with James after I posted over there by PM and they were very civil. I just explained that I was offended by the insinuation and he explained his position. I am now BANNED forever. I have to say I am shocked! What a pussy mother fucker. He PMs me back and forth 4 times then after being very friendly with me, this cowardly, limp-wristed move. What a douchebag. He could not even tell me by PM, what a show of spinelessness!

I have to say I was surprised by what a pussy James is. That was the biggest surprise. I assumed he was in the dealers pockets but, this is the kind of move like keying someones car instead of having enough balls to confront them.
