Heart is where the home is

Funning thing. The offroad site won't have me because of the rotary. Samurai sites don't know and don't care about me. But I found a home on a sport car site. And I have a letter to write to four wheel drive and offroad. They bag sport import and I have a 4x4 sport import.

Yup this site is a great place, people don't talk trash and just try to help out their fellow members. It's awesome, the club rocks!

Amen to that.

I liked it so much after my first post here that I stuck around. And look at me now!

I have to take this aside to thank Manntis. He put up with some of my early n00bish posts and very diplomatically brought me in line. I doubt very much I'd have become the mod I am today without the help of him and many others.

I've been here since the forum was blue/grey and new people were known as "exhaust leaks"

[threadjack]
*Jon reminises about the old forum*
From Exhaust Leak to Rotorite, to Insane Burnout, to No Life, to Custom Tagline was how it used to go. You couldn't just have a custom tagline off the bat. And people had to have a hundred posts before they could have a custom avatar!

Manntis drove the most beautiful first gen I ever knew and his avatar was a picture of a face which I always believed to be his, but never found out.

Inittab (bob) had an avatar of a face that definitely wasn't his - Kryton from Red Dwarf... but of course only an oddball like myself would have ever watched the show, so I was the only one to get the joke.

TJ (Rotomotodriver) still had his pride and joy, and his avatar was a menacing looking policeman waving a baton... Well I guess we all know why he got rid of that.

And I made a post that will be forever puzzled over - "FB, FC, F-Me I'm Confused" lives on to this day in the FAQ, paying tribute to my time as a n00b on this forum. And it still has people asking the question - Why is a guy with over 2,000 posts asking what an FB is? - I'm not. I was.

And I.... well I just got my car on the road officially last week. That's right everyone, Roxy has been restored, and drives the streets putting Civics in their places.
