Hello Recklessrob

I would like to announce a change at T6P! Jay Carter and I will be admins and running the board on a daily basis. I will do my best to provide members with the best online experience we can deliver! If you have any questions, problems, or concerns please PM me and I will reply as soon as possible.

I would like to thank all current members for their support and welcome everyone to the new T6P!

Look for exciting new changes in the days, weeks, and months to follow!

Thanks for your time,

Shane Grimsley

I wish him good luck.

Just to clarify, I was talking more about the moderation aspects and not the nuts and bolts.

As far as nuts and bolts go - I'm looking at new, faster hosts..

And then the horror of moving the board to a new host. :mad:

I posted in the welcome thread over there, I truly do wish him the best of luck!

With Jay managing the back-end, his job shouldn't be too hard.

Post by: 87natty on August 01 2006, 07:36:48 PM: I don't miss anyone there and I'm sure the feeling is mutual. I see no need to go back.

Upon that, you get the feeling people were more anti-Travis than anti-T6P... Hmm...

Post by: Be4u on August 02 2006, 12:59:43 AM: I think it's good for Shane. It involves what he LOVES. Shanes heart is in it more than anyones. I dont think he carries an ego either. I always liked Shane because he was always "just Shane". I expect to see t6p to carry his attitude. Although he's a fanatic, he never had the attitude of "all we can talk about is GN's". Plus he doesnt have any enemies or skeletins in the closet. He has a clean slate too. But it is too bad he's made some crappy friends. There not REALLY his friends....it's hard to explain but I can read 'em like a book.

Post by: 87natty on August 02 2006, 01:42:06 AM: Pfft... he had a lot of shit to say about some of us once we left... remember that?

edit: before I stick my foot in my mouth and out my ass, I wanna say I'm thinking of that John Deere cat... maybe? Oh well, I love this place and tbs. Sue me.
Title: No longer a rumor.
Post by: Be4u on August 02 2006, 08:26:28 AM: I dont remember, but then again, I wasnt around when that stuff went down so I dont know what was really said. I remember reading a thread where JDGN was talking shit but only a couple of negative comments, nothing really bad. What I didnt get to read was the posts/threads that got deleted. I'm sure the good stuff was lost.

I cant see Shane talking shit, If I'm wrong PLEASE let me know.

First let me say thanks SuperSix for your posts here and there :prayer:

Rob and Racer X thank you guys too!

Natty I always have been cool with you as well, I never made any comments about any of ya'll (bad) other than Sylvan, which I will come back too!

Thanks Robert, me and you were always cool. I think we both know we see things a little different than others :supz: You are totally right about me, it is all about the love for the cars for me. T6P has been my "stress reliever" for 2 years now. I work hard and stay stressed out on the phone and computer all day, I help run 4 different companies. It is cool to have a place to chill with friends that don't "want" anything from you 24/7! I have no other goals other than to have fun and enjoy the TR world. We are going to do some fun stuff and your right agian, if you only talked about cars all day it would be boring!

You guys are welcome at T6P anytime :supz:

Sylvan, we both now where we stand :finga: :yawinkle: Lets don't start again!

Good luck with it Shane, and say hi to Jay for me. :atbeer:

Post by: 87natty on August 02 2006, 07:01:13 PM: Ya see Grim, what gets me is that you only come over here and TBs to proclaim your love for us after Travis is out of the picture. What does that look like?

Another thing, if your goal is to maybe try to unite the Buick community, why buy a competing site instead of putting your efforts into one that you can help support? I'm sure your efforts are noble and such, but you're just cutting the pizza into more pieces.

As for us, we are the benevolent cheese...

Title: Re: No longer a rumor.
Post by: sgrim on August 02 2006, 07:35:39 PM: Natty, I am not trying to unite anything! I don't want to lead, influence, or sway anybody! I haven't even posted on TBS. I posted over here a couple of months ago when me and Sylvan had words. I have been over here several times since just not posted, simply becuase I know Sylvan would tell me to fuck off, just like he did! I only posted this time becuase I saw what was being said and I wanted to thank people for their nice comments. Just plain being respectful!

Me posting here has nothing in the world to do with Travis leaving, the one thing I hope everybody will learn about me is I am my own man. If I don't like something that doesn't have to do with me I stay out of it. I don't tote news or start trouble! I will however standup for myself. Like I said I posted months ago and you even responded!

I have said it before and I will say it again, I was always cool with you guys. I came over here to read and see what was up. I have even seen your myspace websites, even listen to Sylvans music at times!

Bottom line is I don't want any waves with anyone, I just thanked people for the words and then responded to Sylvan. No leadership goals for me just want to have fun with folks that share a common interest!

You got nuts Shane. I'll give you that. I was getting you confused with Jay on TBs. Anyway, I don't even know what to say so I'll just stop. Don't let the others get the best of you over there.

Post by: 87natty on August 10 2006, 06:55:23 PM: I drove from the border to freakin Escondido to pick up 6 packs of discontinued Polaroid film. I was pissed, it was hot, my A/C blows hot... So on the way back I stopped by Pizza Port with my bud. We had a shrimp, clam and scallops pizza with some California Honey beer. I almost passed out driving home, it was SO filling... and I wasn't even drunk!
