Losing Dave Schumker, GN/T Performance, and anybody else for that matter, is a great loss to our "little community". Anybody who resigns, especially due to sheer disgust, is a huge loss. Making the situation worse is losing one of the last few "good guys". It is very hard on the familys & freinds of people who eat, sleep, and breathe Turbo Regals. I know first hand exactly how hard it is as I am a Turbo Buick guy, first and foremost.I have been flamed, slammed, and attacked personally on both the board and the digest and there was no need for this. I try so very hard to make everyone who talks to me or asks for help feel comfortable and welcome. I think of other peoples feelings and emotions and try to make then feel comfortable and safe. The Transmission world has come a long way as far as becoming a team and working together, to bring you, the consumer, the best possible products and information. If we ( the transmission community) can get along, I know YOU GUYS CAN. I would give the shirt off my back for any one of you at anytime.
Everybody has emotions and feelings and I try my best to make all feel comfortable and welcome. As for the vendors and the boards, these people give you 110% and alot of times I think it is taken for granted. Like I said before , losing anybody for any reason is a great loss.In our "little world" the good guys seem to be thinning and this is bad, very sad. Call me spastick or a mush, But I feel everyone needs to be a little more sympathetic to the people who run both boards, and the vendors. . I DO NOT SLAM OR PUT DOWN ANY OTHER BUILDER OR TRANS VENDOR. In fact I reccommend people to other trans guys daily. Who is closest to them so the quickest & best service is delivered. If there was only one 2004R builder in the country, none of you would have product as no 1 guy could supply all. When I came into this trans world (2004r) I tried to rally together all shops across country, share what I have tested, success and failures, and what we have experimented with and tried to pull us all together. By doing this, it makes the whole transmission world stronger and more efficent to you, the consumer. Whether it be a moderator, or a vendor, or a guy who just wants to share his successes and failures, all should be equal. Fact is, it's the guy who shares his experiances that make up most of the people on these boards. It's the "little guy" who supports and listens and learns from all of us.
Just remember this, as I have really had a lesson strapped on with Mom's accident: You don't realize what you have till it's gone, and then , it's too late.
Please, all be as considerate and helpful as you can. If you think what you might say may offend someone catch yourself and say, "How would I feel with this said about me?" I guess I'm Old Fashioned in that I actually think about how other people feel and do all that I can to respect them . Sometimes you can't. That's life, but the attempt is what counts. If a beef arises , go directly to the source, NOT THE BOARD. The Board cannot change your greivence with a vendor. By going bazerk on the BB makes you the alledged victom, look really, really stupid and your the guy that got supposedly screwed. I will continue to support BOTH boards as the more people I can help the better. Anybody can work on the car it seems , but the transmission is foreign to alot of you. If I can make a difference and help you to understand, then I'm doing my job and what my heart and soul is telling me to do.
My point is treat everyone like you would want to be treated and all things will go much better.
Also, Appreciate what others do for you as I know ALL of you sent in that high dollar regestration fee for the knowledge and freinds obtained off BOTH these boards!!!!!! WHAT?
You didn't pay anything???
MY GOD BATMAN, WHATS THIS WORLD COMING TO ???????
No $'s for knowledge and freinds and fun? sheesh
With respect to you all, the last of the few "Good Guys".
