    You know, I don't know Steve Sellers but from what I see, he does great work.

    Nore do I know you and have not been negative in any way BUT You have made several statements ( as well as editing a statement removing paraphrase " Moderators are fake posers who will delete items as they are not real hot rodders" and "theres a mod that hates people like us"

    I appreciate that you wish to sound the horn for Steve Sellers but making the 2 above statements that you made certainly gets my attention as I am a Moderator and frankly either you state who you have a problem with and be a man about it or respect will be thin from me period.

    Steve is your friend - fine, maybe someday I'll get a chance to meet him and you, but my fellow moderators are my friends and frankly since you choose to post smoke of your displeasure is a insult to my friend.

    We are all here for fun, but I am calling you on your statements and quit backpeddling.

    Clear the air and quit with the mystery statement posts.
    People will respect you more for manning up.

    I don't hate you - I just don't like the direction of you post with your moderator statement.

    I think that's fair - If you don't think so then by all means let me know.

    Thanks and enjoy the HAMB.

    Must be me.

    I'm a mod. I hate everybody. I just run my mouth because I have the power. My way, or the highway, Jack.


    See, your post attracts the negative - if you'd have just stopped after you'd got done thanking Sellers - who I think is insanely talented - this would've been a positive post, but you had to hang that remark about mods on the end of it...leaves a bad taste.

    And I thought the FL scene was full of drama - I can't wait to meet you guys in LA in June for the roadster show....

    On an unrelated side note - How about everyone start using there correct name as a username?

    I changed mine the first time I actually heard someone refer to me by a screen name in real life. I'm a young guy, and I had to draw the line with that...I have a name already -

    Dude, get over it.. Steve Sellers is an amazing fabricator nobody has said he isnt. You need to realize there are thousands of Steve Sellers out there, that toil in obscurity. They do it because they love it, and its all they know, they dont care about press, t.v. shows, drama on the H.A.M.B. etc. Steve Sellers has had alot of good press, he has the respect of his Northern California peers, and other Fabricators in the industry. I dont understand what your point is here? It kind of makes you look bad, instead of talking **** on the H.A.M.B. you should embrace it a little more. It probably made your T.V. the most watched show on Speed Channel. Instead of talking **** on the MOds. Maybe just a thank you to Ryan and the rest of the guys that let you post about your car and your T.V. show. Its funny I have been on here a long time and dont post much, but I really felt the need to post this..
    Good Luck Dude..

    Nope , not closing it, not kicking you off and frankly just stand on your feet, man up with your statement and who you have a problem with and things will go in the right direction.

    Sorry works if you clear the air and just face head on what ever the heck you were thinking to make the two statements anyway.

    At 19 - time to take responsibility.

    I'm sure you have fabrication talent, just don't dent the metal with spit dripping from your mouth from statements that people will call you on.


    If you make a ****ty weld you grind it off and re-weld it.
    If you make a contraversial statement, you man up and discuss it.

    Nothing wrong with a education in other areas.



    So which Moderator pisses you off Plain and simple ?

    Send me a PM if you want - hell send him a PM and I have confidence that whatever Mod you have a problem with is man enough to discuss it.



    So lets get this cleared up tonight.
