Re: eh?
are you serious? i cant talk about some headlight mods to my DD, but we can post pics of blood everywhere? nice. i hate fish, i hate fishing, i think its wrong to post up pics of a living thing sliced open with blood everywhere like its an acomplishment.
at the same time i realize that some people like that kind of crap. so i let them be.
this whole group is going downhill fast. i want to know when this place went from "fun club" to "corporate rules". i dont know if anyone else has noticed but it SUCKS around here lately. no more fun, post whatever you want, idle banter type of stuff. it seems like people are afraid to post, worried that thier posts may not fit into the curriculum that the curent administratin has set up for itself. i for one am tired of seeing this place run like a company, instead of a club. i realize we have assets far outweighing those of a simple off road club, and need to act as an organization, but... there is something missing now. 2 years ago when i joined this group it was because i signed on and said to myself "wow! these guys are great, and are going out of thier way to help eachother". the same is true today, but it seems the people are only out to help thier friends, and not the group as a whole. it also seems that idle banter is no longer welcome in the socal chapter forum. were it not for this idle chit chat i would not have ever joined this group. i joined for the comeraderie (however the hell you spell it), from the first meet n greet i went to i felt like part of the group... now i log on, surf the socal chapter and feel like certain people are being pushed out of the loop... and this has nothing to do with the whole BSC drama, i realize alot you dont like us just because of what you read in the JV thread even though you werent there... (you childish pricks) but i think the chapter as a whole is missing the togetherness it once had. maybe its because new blood has come in, and you old farts cant accept that, whatever.
either way, consider this my resignation. i love you guys, and hate you at the same time. at one point i was dying to help make this club a better place...i offered help every chance i had just to be shot down. now, i can barely stand to come here and read the snyde remarks and "one-upism" (as i like to call it) attitude that everyone seems to have around here. im done. i'll still be around, but count me out of the group.
good luck folks, you're going to need it.
