    The question I ask is "Where in the world did YOU get that?"

    Remember the playground games we would play where Susie would tell Johnny something and then Johnny would tell Fred, Fred in turn would tell Patty and so forth. By the time it gets back to Susie the story had changed. Anything you may have heard about the conversation I had with others is at best second hand information to you. You and I traded a few PM's early in the week and at no point did I mention or even allude to what you state here.

    I understand the excitement that a product such as the FA-R53 can bring. It is a powerful tool in right hands. If you look back at the PM's we traded you'll note I was not concerned about your exuberance but in the location the post was placed along with a lack of certain information I felt was important for you to add.

    I noticed a typo in the thread subject line that I have fixed.

    It was "Updated to Member Policy 3/10/2011"

    It is now "Updates to Member Policy 3/10/2011"

    NATE.. that is so wrong!! You didnt inform me that I was in a personal vendors thread ( as we , other vendors, dont have that option) until you pulled the thread.

    You said nothing about 'showing proof' until you moderated the post!!

    The game of rumor is just that.. however you can use that if you wish..
    I feel that you are so tainted from the past, that YOU think everyone has an agenda... Yes we have had a few PMs back and forth, however it seems that you have not wanted to listen to anyone's side , save your buddies.

    I and Lynn have a bad taste with you because we hammer the Jan Crew when they attempt to miss lead. well that is something that needs to be addressed and then all your problems will be gone!! EVERYONE Knows minimark/longboard/Jan.. blah blah...
    There is no need for this.. and the system wont change..

    :D

    I'm glad you got that typo fixed 'cause it's more important than all this bickering.
    Man if you've got something to say to somebody do it behind closed doors.

    LOL! Hey Mike...ummm....how long have you been doing, "the performance car scene", like 30+ years? Colin how old are you? I bet he's been doing the "scene" longer than you have been alive?

    Only when certain people keep pushing again and again and again.

    If these same people that helped destroy that site and bicker on MINITorque all the time would just stop with their own personal agendas and let the flow of information be then we would not have these issues.

    precisely. the MINI community is 80% drama and 20% content. M/A has always been the reverse, which is why I still come here to read

    The changes seem pretty straight forward to me, thanks for letting us all know! Again, I have to say how much I enjoy and appreciate this site. I've learned a ton about my car, and met some really cool people. Thanks to Nathan and all of team MA.
