oregon chapter....

How many of you guys actually meet up throughout the year?

We have a chapter going for oregon/washington guys over on the .org and get together every once in awhile and BS and work on trucks!

We should think about combining members. I think were at about 50 right now!!

I don't know what ".org" your talking about. The Oregon Chapter has over 150 members and FTE has almost 600,000 members!

We usually have one "formal" get-together a year, but some members are close enough to meet whenever they want. Any of your members are free to join FTE if they wish...........

You should get your 50 members to join FTE!

As a chapter leader you should know that trolling for new members in somebody else's forum is frowned on.
As the Oregon Chapter Leader, and a Moderator ( Though not this forum) your solicitation of FTE members is not wanted here.

Wow alright!

My gosh i was simply trying to just get guys with the love of fords together. You guys get together once a year. We get together more than once a month usually. Just trying to help out some guys that like playing with trucks every weekend. Im not trying to steal anybody at all! I just figured we could all join in at one place.

Well if anyone is wanting to join up and be a part of a great thing just let me know! You know where to find me, i will leave now and since 'against forum rules' for me to be over here trying to get together with other guys of the same interest.

Your still trolling for members!




FTE is not what you think. We are a huge family of folks that happen to love Ford Trucks. ALL FORD TRUCKS not just "coal rollers" There are forums here for every year and model since Henry made the first chassis, including my old 35!

We welcome all ford people and would welcome you also, but you are still trolling.............

yeah you caught me im a "coal roller".....

Or thats just the name we chose for the chapter. Either or! We are all diesel guys and love ford trucks to death.... I think your mistaken. The .org is also a giant family oriented place. Im not trolling. Just trying to find more guys to get into the diesel sport.... im not into the gas side of things. But i love fords.

Think of me how you like, i will start hanging out here more and see if i can attend some of your guys' gtg's and maybe you guys can attend ours as well.
Ive aquired many close friends through that site, just seeing if we can widen out horizon!

No need to do that.

If someone asks you about the .org, feel free to tell them...we've got no problem with that. But posts like these...

...are straight out promoting another site, and that's frowned upon over here (unless you'd like to become a sponsor ).

FTE's chapter leaders and members are rightfully protective...they've put a lot of work into making their chapters what they are, and see things like this as an attempt to mine members over to the .org. Whether or not that's your intent (and I have no reason to doubt you when you say it isn't), that's the way it comes across.


Thanks for understanding our position. If you have any questions, feel free to send me a PM.

Yes sir i understand!

I have put umteen hours of time and effort into our chapter as well. Im just simply trying to get to know some other guys outside out of the forums i regularly visit.


If we can go to get some grub or something and talk trucks why not? Im just looking to have a good time.... Not trying to step on toes.

my apologies!
