i've noticed we don't welcome the new guys like before when i joined,wondered about that and looked at a few intro's and realised that alot of these guys can't follow simple instructions,wtf ? you are to tell us about yourself,not sell me a supercharger or ask where to get fenders,i don't understand why this is so complicated,i mean you see a guy with one post trying to sell something,i feel violated but i understand but hey i'm joe blow from neverwas and i'm looking for a radio delete plate for my packard?huh? anyway admin you can delete this i just wanted to vent,

[Larsdk]

No, you are right. And they are pretty good, at posting on ads. " Do you want a Ford A in parts as payment". Its weird, but maybe they cant read.:D:D

[Norwegian 49 Mercury]

Oh. I'm sorry!

I am a FNG, but I don't have as much as a washer for sale...

But I keep on recycling old cars and parts, for own use....

If you did the shipping would be a deal killer:)

PS, your women, sell me your women, the little girl, your daughters, sell me your daughters......

Quit your sookin' FNGs......

[Ruiner]

There's over 90,000 members here now...isn't it time we thinned the herd? :D The part that I don't get is no matter who you are or what you know, don't come on here and in the first month run your mouth off at guys that have been here forever...I mean seriously, we don't want to hear your fucking whining about the forum rules, or deal with your sorry ass for trying to push the envelope like a douchebag rebel...just shut the fuck up every now and then and take some advice...if you want to butcher some old cars up because you're broke and all you got for parts is an S-10 and a '87 Ford pickup to get your '54 Chevy on the road so you can look "kool", then I think ruffrodders is accepting applications...

[american opel]

i try my best to let them know that they dont belong here if they only want stuff or want to sell stuff.they need to first int.them selves,look around,maybe help then after a while they can get some help.it is way diff.then when i first got on.deff.not as many people tearing up fng's.i use to like it{and still do}.also dont forget there are so many people on here now that a new post can get burried 3 pages back in about a minute.

[Ruiner]

I'm not so tough on the buyers or sellers, as long as they follow the rules...if we pissed off every guy that came here to sell stuff, we'd have to look even harder for that '38 Chevy grille shell for $20 that the guy is sick of seeing laying around his shop...or the guy willing to pay $300 for a rotten Dodge cowl...I'm more peeved by the losers that want to push buttons and question the forum rules or don't understand why their '87 Dodge pickup isn't a hot rod...

[TUMBLEWEED GARAGE]

I have a '92 Dikfer i would like to unload.. Make offer or will trade for any aftermarket hi-po parts for a Henway.. Also looking for muffler bearing compound.. Prefer the quart can..

[Ruiner]

Wanna trade for my '38 Butfor? Or should we put the drivetrain from your Dikfer into my Butfor?

[Cajun Kenny]

an S10 is too wide for that application..

[McDeuce]

Is you 38 Butfor the 3 window or 5 window ?

[fat141]

also dont forget there are so many people on here now that a new post can get burried 3 pages back in about a minute.[/QUOTE]

Good point:)

Viva La H.A.M.B.. We have found but another use for the muffler bearing compound!!!!!

[Ruiner]

Kenny, there's no such thing as "too wide", or apparently you haven't seen some of the abominations that show up on the forum from time to time...
And my '38 Butfor is the super rare 7 window roadster...

[blockhead]

It's the same reason that I don't grab a guitar and sit with the older pickers at the guitar shop. As good as I think I am, I really don't know shit. And I might wind up looking like an ass. I do like to watch and learn, though.

[Derwood]

Wasn't everyone a FNG at one time? Or were you born with that t-shirt?

[36-3window]

Wheres all the grumpy old farts at?:D:p:p

i'm right here

[40FORDPU]

I could care less if you are a FNG-newbie-grenade launcher-alliance member-or the man in the moon, as long as you can respect this site for what it is, and follow the guidelines accordingly!.... Great information, and a terrific way to communicate with fellow brothers and sisters of our shared passion. It is tempting to slam someone, just because you know soo much, but is that really effective? I think we can steer them in the right direction, without insulting them-it's a different world now. Don't we want young or new people to be interested in our shared hobby? I do....Hell, I might even learn something.

[wbrw32]

i'm right here


Me too....

I have muffler bearing compound @ $2.99 a qt.!! PM me.

I am looking for 2 1/4 inch LH exhaust bearings, I used the RH ones but think I must need the LH as all the exhaust fluid leaked out.

Thanks for the help.

[oj]

You guys are right and i am still a bit of a newbie having been here only a couple years, but seems like people aren't looking at the intro posts. Case in point, last week Bob Bilbo's sister (Lois?) joined the hamb and her intro was a thank you for all the support and recognition that the hamb had given her father - Pat Bilbo, chassis fabricator extraordinare, owner of Lynwood Welding, a pioneer in the early days of FED and builder of Joe Tucci's dragsters. I think less than 10 people welcomed this lady to the hamb. I was a little embarassed, but as others have pointed out the volumne quickly burried her post.
On a lighter note, i have this '37 Spinster that i'd trade for that 7 window roadster and a piece of that quart of muffler bearing compound - it isn't used is it?

There ya go... An F.N.G with a sense of humor...

And $2.99 a qt. is a fucking steal!

[The37Kid]

I really should read the intos more often, but I do make it a point to welcome FNG's when they post a reply and add something to a thread. I remember back when I first joined I didn't post anything in the classifieds until I'd added 20-25 replies and hopefully helped a few people first. Reading the rules and following them is a neat concept. I'll rejoin the HAMB Alliance as soon as some extra bucks arrive. Merry Christmas!:) i've noticed we don't welcome the new guys like before when i joined,wondered about that and looked at a few intro's and realised that alot of these guys can't follow simple instructions,wtf ? you are to tell us about yourself,not sell me a supercharger or ask where to get fenders,i don't understand why this is so complicated,i mean you see a guy with one post trying to sell something,i feel violated but i understand but hey i'm joe blow from neverwas and i'm looking for a radio delete plate for my packard?huh? anyway admin you can delete this i just wanted to vent,

I aim to please...but if I get some in your eyes or hair, don't get all bitchy and whiny about it, just smile and go wash up for the next guy ;) ...hahaha :D

Thanks for the wakeup call..........I own a Lyndwood and never knew she was here on the HAMB. Will be offering a belated welcome.

Where's GERM when we need him?

[Norwegian 49 Mercury]

I've been welding some old shit for my Merc, and checked this thread again.

I can understand how you get your fancy titles, after pretty short time. If I wrote so many useless replies I think I been the King on the hill these days, instead getting my Merc done.

Keep on "computering", so your fingers dont get dirty!

[Greezy]

Fuckin boo de hoo...get off the box and build something. Is that grumpy enuff? :D

[4t64rd]

I check the Intro's for locals... do an advanced search and put in your state in and the intos board... viola!

I think you should be required to use the search 10 times before you first post...

- Grumpy old guy who has seen uncommitted newbie asses come and go.

P.S. this post was started by a guy with less than a year, it doesn't take that long to figure this place out.

Dudes! Easy on the flaming. All I wanted to know if it was time to switch the Summer air in my tires to the special Winter air. Geez!

Hey, Durangotang!

Where did you get your nekkid ladies?

Just curious, how old to you have to be before you know "shit" ?

Why would anyone participate in a thread like this?
