The DieselStop

Anybody a member over at thediselstop? What's their problem? I made 2 posts; one for a new member intro., and one reply to a guy that said he had a 6.9l service manual on digital media. I've been banned for posting spam. WTF! I'm thinking maybe this guy that had the serv. man. must have something to do with it. I've tried contacting them to no avail.

Used to post over there several years ago, got a lot of mis-information, not nearly the member base or knowledge that there is here. I would stick to this forum or oil burners if you can sidestep the idi flaming...

I actually haven't seen much idi flaming here at all surprisingly. I like this forum a lot. TDS doesn't really have a lot to offer anymore IMO...

I'm on oilburners as well and to be honest I rarely if ever go there anymore.

Silly as it sounds, you seem to make actual friends on these forums and FTE has some of the friendliest people I know.

I bailed on the Drama Stop a long time ago because I tired of all of the garbage you had to wade through to get anything useful. Oil burners is much better for an alternative. I haven't had the time I once did for forums, so Oilburners got cut too. I don't have to worry about classes, now I just have the commute and actual good paying work for a change...

I kind of gathered something wasn't quite right. To get banned for life right off the bat with no question. I joined them awhile back and diddn't even realize I was banned till the other day when I tried to visit. Glad to here I'm not missing anything. Thanks for the info!

Ive always liked FTE, thats why I chose this place to host my build thread. Obviously there was the OBN thing, and I followed NMB2 over to PSN to get the ball rolling there, but there was just too much drama for my liking... The fact is, I should have Just done all my IDI stuff over here from the beginning, it would have saved a whole bunch a people, mainly myself, a huge headache...Hopefully the useful/drama free end of OBN make its way over here, and this becomes the premiere IDI forum, its got the right people, and its moderated just about as fair as a forum could be... Other than checking in on a few other builds, I have no reason to go to any other forum.
