    yeah... I was wondering the same thing, maybe it was just the stupid noob in me but I couldn't locate this thread she was getting all **** hurt about. Did she used to have a different username? Maybe she forgot what forum she posted on? Maybe I'm just being a clueless noob? The only maybe I'm seeing for sure though is maybe she's in the wrong scene, should try the emo/goth thing. They like black leather too, and it would fit the persecution complex better.

    me = :confused: , someone care to show me where this alledged scuffle went down?

    She posted a wanted ad for some 40 Model truck lights.


    That's what started all this.

    After reading all the **** that post started in the cl***ifieds, I went to OSR and found no post there asking for the same lights.

    This seemed odd to me. Then I read the intro post and started wondering if someone wasn't screwing around. She got some good leads off the ad she placed so I figured it safer to delete what I could in case someone logged in as here or whatever.

    Guess I was wrong?

    That sheds some light on it... but nah I don't think you were wrong. As someone running a forum like this, you have the duty to be the responsable one and try and calm down fights where ever applicable and prudent. Whether or not she started round one (I wasn't here, so I can't say), who'd have guessed she'd start round 2 because she couldn't let it lie after it was dealt with properly by an authorized staff member.

    Again, I will state that I wasn't around for round 1, but juding by the character she displayed in round 2, I stand by my previous statements. Oh no, someone gave her a hard time on the internet. Wow... alert the presses. Given that she likes to wield her limited fame like a battle axe and doubly so that she is doing so on someone else's board, I dunno. She should have taken it like an adult, been gracefull, and taken the high road, especially since she's an amb***ador to her board (especially since she's not shy about dragging their name into her personal conflict).

    It all reminds me of a school yard scuffle that winds up with a "my daddy can beat up your daddy" routine, and in this case her biggest baddest thing she brought was "screw you guys, I'm taking my toys (star power?) and going home". Oh noes, I'm never gonna feel whole again :rollseyes:

    But then I'm just a longwinded rambling ******* sometimes :D

    [​IMG] WTB:Ol Skool Rodz Needs Help! Need 1940 Truck Headlights
    Somone please help me!! I am a feature editor for OL SKOOL RODZ and I need to locate 1940 Chevy or Mack Truck (Cab over/Full size transport truck not a pickup) Headlights with the white/clear guidelight on top. Circa 1940 with the bullet shape housing (Approx 10") and wide chrome bezel in front. The guidelight sits on top and is kinda square shaped. The mount post is like a round ball, not the flat kind.

    Its For my photo shoot for a featured ratrod that has been involved in an accident prior to my photo shoot and needs a replacement light. HELP ME HELP ME PLEASE. I will pay for it and give special thanks credit to you in my article. Please keep the price reasonable. One replacement lamp or a set is OK. I've got friends scouring the USA for this damn light and cant find it!! Photo shoot is end of December/EArly January.

    Love to all Rodders, Anna Marco (California)

    The lack of intro is what started the mess which I wasn't even involved in.

    This post was actually better than most intros but she editted it before I saw it so I have no idea what the first draft said.

    ah ok, so she got hazed a bit for bending the rules and thats what led to round 2? Hell I'm not that swift at all but I caught on to the introduce yourself first bit, because I read before posting :shrug: I guess I see what lead to it but I still stand by my opinion of the situation. If I were in her shoes, I just would have left. I don't think being childish and incredibly unprofessional helps one promote their cause and/or get their point across.

    Thank you for taking some of the confizzledness out of this thread though heh.

    Intros ****...

    If you're a jackwit, you're a jackwit.

    It doesn't matter how long you've been a member or how many times you've said "howdy!"

    Sooner or later your annoying tendancies will come out... And you'll get flamed. Hopefully it will be bad enough that you will go away.

    Intros are either absolutely worthless or they create drama...

    "Hi, I'm blah blah blah. And I've blah blah for blah years..."
    Who the **** cares.

    Kill the intro board. Kill intros. Kill idiots no matter how "New" they are.

    :shrug: tell us how you really feel... :D

    This is the first board I've seen with a manditory intro, but I can see it's usefullness. Gets people out of the woodwork and breaks the ice.

    edit: after searching and looking at some of the intro grief people get when they don't find it, I can see how it could get real old real quick and quite annoying :shrug: people need to settle. It's just the internet. Kick back and enjoy it, and if you can't, there's always ****, or dare I say it, the world outside, aka real life. The world could be a *****in place if everytime someone felt like getting **** hurt or squabbling over something tiny, they'd turn a wrench, work the gearbox, or go get laid. Plenty of better reasons to get worked up over, like someone telling you what you should have done to your ride :cool:
