This Saturday's Meeting.

Hey guys, it's that time of month once again. This Saturday is our March meeting. I ask that you please try and attend this months meeting for i have a VERY important anouncement that will affect all club members. I normally call most of the members to remind them of the meeting, but my cell phone is broken right now so i don't have most of your number with me. So please spread the word to others to attend this months meeting. Thanks to all and i'll look forward on seeing you all this Saturday.

Why not just start another meet instead of trying "fix" something that is already doing good?

+1 on that iLikeEatPoo...


But the way i feel in my opinion the little anouncement that was made at the meet was a personal attack due to the fact that sometimes you have to work...and i don't think it's fair for others to have to adjust to other people's work load, then on top of that alternate the meet days between first saturday or first sunday of the month... Doing this is going to throw people off with out a doubt...First saturday of the month meets have been going on for years with no problems...Some saturdays are big, other saturdays meets are small...it's just the way the world turns and that's the way the ball falls...

Your posts make that blatantly obvious. For whatever reason, however, I don't understand why? You're acting like the dictator of San Diego RX-7, are you butt hurt because someone mocked your judgment? From what I gather, you seem to think the world will come to a screeching halt if a meet happened on some day other than a Saturday, or if someone suggests an idea for a meet that's different than yours.

You're representing the group of people that come to these meets as a bunch of idiots, implying they're incapable of attending a meet on any day other than Saturday because it will "throw them off with out a doubt." Speak for yourself, not for others.

Talking All your doing is talking...

wow...take it easy turbo...cause the only person that was pulling the strings yesterday at the meet was jimmy boy with his public anoucement about alternating the meets from saturdays to sundays every other month...And as i recall he made a personal comment about "I can't come to every Saturday meet"...

And the blatantly obvious comment you so called call it is an opinion...Im entitled to them and so are you and so was everybody else at the meet and on this forum...No one spoke up or had anything to say...

The world won't come to a screetching halt my friend if the saturday meets got turned into sunday meets every other month...life as we know it will go on, the world will keep on turnning...

Wow very mature gross polluter very very mature...Difference of opinions i guess...Instead of making personal attacks for which i have none towards you why don't you make mature opinions and thoughts on the subject and not at me...Or maybe start a poll, or maybe just stop posting Inaccurate accusations about someone and keep your obnoxious comments away from your personal one's...

I think the main issue was that instead of some dialogue about the issue/situation, a decision was made without a consensus from the main body who it effects. I don't think people had much to say about the matter because frankly, they don't want to appear rude and cause a scene in public. Some people are barely comfortable being around that many people, but still make it a point to come. Speaking in front of a large crowd like that might be too daunting of a task.

I will say this; there were a lot of funny faces made and Mel was brave enough to say in not so many words "Uh, is everybody cool with this??". Obviously not everybody can make a Saturday meet. Commerce and society still moves on that day and people still need to be at work. I'm sure a solution or an agreement can be made re: meet dates and times.

Is your definition of "pulling strings" suggestion? When I met Jim yesterday he told me about it and I took it just as that, a suggestion, not a personal attack.

And the blatantly obvious comment you so called call it is an opinion...Im entitled to them and so are you and so was everybody else at the meet and on this forum...No one spoke up or had anything to say...
No, you took a suggestion for a meet as a personal attack. That's not opinion, that's fact. I can't even begin to explain how absurd that is.

The world won't come to a screetching halt my friend if the saturday meets got turned into sunday meets every other month...life as we know it will go on, the world will keep on turnning...
Then why the heck are you so worried about it?

Wow very mature gross polluter very very mature...Difference of opinions i guess...Instead of making personal attacks for which i have none towards you why don't you make mature opinions and thoughts on the subject and not at me...Or maybe start a poll, or maybe just stop posting Inaccurate accusations about someone and keep your obnoxious comments away from your personal one's...
Again, this is not an opinion, it's a fact that you pointed out:

Doing this is going to throw people off with out a doubt...
It's not a personal attack, it's pointing out what you said, and how you meant it to speak for everyone else.

I do agree, however, that there should be a poll, let everyone decide what THEY want to do, instead of you deciding for them.

For me? It does not matter either way. I'm all for the alternating meets, but if it's an inconvenience for the majority, then fine, I don't mind making 15minute appearances once a month. I would like to hang out for more than 15 minutes though, and there's those I'm sure who would like even show up.

Ninja edit: I see the poll is up, I'm in on it.

we can go back and forth all day with this gross polluter..you came out no where with your comments and it kinda threw me back in the seat here while i was reading it...I have no problem with you...but the more you post and keep this little bitch fest up the more i lose intrest in talking with you here on the forum or at any of the other future meets, and i don't want it to boil down to that because you have read in-between the lines of what i was trying to say... I enjoy the company of fellow rotor heads and your self and i enjoy the meets plain and simple...

Aside from that becareful with the choice of words you choose cause like i said you made a personal attacks at me from a post with the opinions i made in there and just how i saw it and also speaking with other forum members...As far as the meets i would like to keep them going on saturdays...I look forward to the meets every first saturday of the month and like my self and few others we make proper arangements to make time for these meets...

There's a poll that was started go and make your voice be heard as i did and as a few others have...

Everything is a personal attack with you, isn't it?

Don't you think it's slightly immature that you take a meeting suggestion as a personal attack? Someone pointing it out? You don't think it's just a little too uptight to take things you read on the internet seriously?

Next time you're in Mira Mesa, let me know, i'll buy you a beer. You have my number.

ok whoa guys. both of you take a deep breathe and calm down.

im curious gross polluter who are you? its not important. im just curious.

now to the point. i believe i was the only one that made a comment when jim made the announcement. i at the time commented on and still feel that alternating the days will throw a lot of people off/confuse people.

now a couple things to take into consideration. sundays are a horrible day for some to attend a car meet. some go to church which would tend to fall around the same time as the meet and make it impossible to make it. others sunday is a family day. people like me have one day they spend with friends/family significant other away from cars and other "work" related things. i literally have one day with my b/f that doesnt involve cars. does that matter to everyone else? no it doesnt but im just saying we all have personal lives that are effected in some way by what day the meet is.

i understand there are people like jim that may have to work on saturdays. but the point is and what i think teddy is trying to make a point of was that the issue was not discussed with the whole club. it was decided between two or three people and that was it. things cant run smoothly and there are going to be hard feelings if everyone isnt included in such a large decission.
