Some invested hundreds of hours helping others, and helping TDP grow. We "own" that board just as much as AF does, if not more.

Comments like "maybe we will buy you out", are every bit the insult as anything else posted in this thread.

The mods here are all hotrodders, and their primary duty is to help others with diesel problems. If there are mods at TDP that are more LAPD than AAA, then perhaps AF needs to actually manage that site.

Enthusiast boards should be run by enthusiasts, not telemarketers or rent-a-cops.
Right on Pat. Exactly my thoughts also. Tony is correct by saying not all mods there are jackasses but most are. It is unreal how they can just turn on someone that has managed to spend numerous hours away from their family to gather and compile info to make it easier for others. I know I didnt have a diesel or am a techie on diesel stuff BUT I give it 100% on the stuff I do know...electrical, LEDS, HIDs, Exterior, ect.... I bet you wont find any other mod over there that has made as many stickies and such other than some ex mods that are members here. The new gen mods just are too busy acting like kindergartners handing out warnings and shit.

As far as Stew acting like he did here its no surprise. Thats his and Randys whole attitude....we can buy anything we want. I call BS. AF is not as big as they appear. I would hope this place never sells and I dont think it ever would. One thing this place has though that money cant buy is something AF will never understand. P R I D E.

AF DOES manage that site. Thats the reason it is the way it is. Because you have some kiddo in an office thats responsible for the site and hes calling the shots from a managerial standpoint instead of an enthusiast standpoint. There is a HUGE difference when you are not both. If you are not an enthusiast you need to trust and rely on your mod staff to make the right decisions. If data is slacking (ie..sales, ect..) then you step in and offer some insight and how to implement it in a way thats going to best suit your members. MEMBERS are the ONLY reason why forums stay in business. Vendors are only there if members are there.

And besides all that that place does not have ANYWHERE near the amount of ACTIVE users that they claim. Im willing to bet they have less than 20% active users on there. Another smoke and mirrors ploy. BUT when your getting paid to a job I guess your a company man. And Im sure nutsack will come in and say hes not getting paid but I know he is. I heard it from HighSierra (John) when he was an admin. Just another cover up in his basket of BS.

Wow easy there tough guy.:dupe::cop::spit:

Couldn't you just have deleted/edited the post and sent the member a pm slapping him on the wrists?:rolleyes:

Tell you what, I'll do my job on my site by my sites rules, and you do your job on your site by your sites rules.

Hey dumb shit blueberry..pull your head from you know where.. I never posted a price. If u look at the post it hasn't even been edited by me or a mod....

So post the proof you tool bag good for nothing.....

Exactly what I thought...run your mouth a little more on something your clueless about...cause that's about the only thing you know how to run.

You were banned due to a direct breach of the vendor rules on dieselplace MMLMM. You posted a public price for your services and had no qualms about it.

Deal with it.

oh and Stew is pretty good with picking up the tab for beers, if ya choose to visit him give me a shout, we'll show ya grand old canuck time.

Please don't hold the fact that this clown lives in Canada against the rest of us Canucks. Just cause he lives there doesn't mean we like him either!:D

A guy asks a simple question and gets a smartass answer. Shows the true colours of the people over there IMO. I wonder if any of them can even read their own rules let alone follow or enforce them.

Someone owes me 15 minutes of my life that I wasted on this garbage, a beer, or a free TTS lift pump w/ harness...

What's it gonna be?...

I'll buy you a beer Chris. I promise the can won't blow up either....;)

I feel like I am in the 5th grade again.

DP sucks, move on from it, Josh has it 100%, it is run by incompetent 14 year old kids and grown men that take orders from their wives and daughters.

They checked their balls in the testicle lock box before they became mods.

:rofl:

The only thing good about the site is the market place....;)

Couldn't agree more!

If you are talking about an ad on DP that is one of their newer vendors. AF now owns an El Camino site I belong to and Ahwooga is an advertiser on their also. I don't have clue what they sell, never been to their site.

El Caminos? Oh shit...dont let my wife here that. She'd die to own a '71.


I figured as much for ahwooga. More cross-selling.

Tony these guys aren't pointing fingers at you and they ain't crapping on you :thumb:. You've never wronged anyone on DP :thumb:.

Easy now brother. Some of us deserve more respect than that. Several of us have earned blood stripes while trudging up hills with 100LB ruck sacks on our backs. Not only that, I built my truck from the ground up with little help from friends, some of which are members of this site also. I have also worked on many trucks for nothing more than a 2 liter of MT Dew to help some friends out.

Lets keep the name calling/bad mouthing to a minimum. I stepped out of the scene for a few months handling family and disability issues and a busy time at my family towing business. So not all of us deserve to be crapped on.

If you knew the history of the site you would also know that D'Amico started it and myself and Mackin ran it from the start, I was with Mackin the original two people that helped D'Amico build that site into what it was.

So I have the right to sat whatever I want because I walked in those shoes 7 years ago before any of the current mods did.

I was called far worse that you know and called many of the mods who replaced me far worse that I have called the current one's.

RatLover was a tool like Randy, him and I had many, many brawls becaue Phil was a TTS tool and D'Amico condoned his actions so he didn't have to be the bad guy but could still get his free stuff from Cole.

Just and FYI for ya, I am not offended by your comment.

Damn Tom always hating on non duramax guys :spit: :hug:

You 8.1 guys are just a little bit on the intense side, but youre alright....;)

An "Awhooga" horn...:rofl: I havent laughed that hard in a while. Thanks Josh.


AF is only cutting their own throats by alienating the "get-it-done" enthusiast crowd and concentrating on the "what is a truck?" newbie bunch. Despite them, DP was my homesite and I still try to pay it forward....like so many of you guys helped me in the past (and still do).
