Another great thread - the fun never ends in the P!g pen.

Great link - I've been on the fence for bypass pipes too bc fabspeed/sharkwerks are too expensive. This is the American way...bring on the competition!

Actually, the original thread was deleted due to spelling errors and poor grammar ... but don't tell anyone

I am sure Sir Mudman2 will address what is quickly becoming the # 1 issue here in the P!g Pen ...

If the mod didn't proactively send a PM to the OP after the thread was deleted, I don't think that the OPs request is unreasonable. Again, being a mod on another site, I don't like taking that type of action without sending a message to the OP fully explaining why a thread was deleted. I guess you can take the stance that it is the mods/admins right to do so and they don't have to offer up any explanation, but I don't think that approach will be well received as evidenced by this thread.

If this is essentially the same thread that the OP posted on another site which will remain nameless, I didn't see anything wrong with the content at all. Now, if the mods disagree and they obviously have the final say, I would appreciate knowing why the OPs thread was deleted as well so I and others will have a better understanding of what content is or is not allowed.

I greatly appreciate the types of reviews such as the one the OP made (that got deleted) -- it provides a wealth of information, real-life experiences, and non-sponsored/unbiased feedback.

With all of that said, I know there are always three sides to every story. Side A, Side B, and then the truth. To the OP and/or Mod that deleted the thread, if there's any pertinent details that we aren't aware of, then that may be a different story.

My big thing is fairness on these types of boards. The nice thing about public boards like this is that is promotes accountability across the board. That accountability goes for everyone (registered users, mods, and sponsors).
Thank you...and very well said. I'm really not trying to make a big deal of this but I'm a bit confused. I'm not a rookie to forums...before this I owned an audi and was on audizine all the time (they seemed to be a bit more relaxed with their rules over there). Anyways, you're right, there are always 2 sides and I want to be honest here. I did reply to my own thread and thereby bump it to the top but usually that is permitted twice. I've never been scolded for doing that once. Other than that, I don't think I've done anything wrong other than give props to another company who makes a good product at a good price.
After all, this is America dammit and I'll say what I wanna say! . Even though I'm Canadian...haha.
Thanks for the support!

Seriously best thread of the month. I don't know which is funnier - LTC trying to be serious, or everyone else trying to be LTC!

MOD: can you make this a stickie at the top, instead of the coils and coolant pipes threads?!?

All that was missing was, "...visiting Egypt right now!"

Start a thread called "P!g Pen Classics".
Post links to the aforementioned classics and perhaps a wandering Moderator will "sticky" the thread to the top of the forum.

It would be easier to climb Mount Everest in a thong and plant Kooser's severed appendages at the summit than try to be like itc...

But, please, by all means, have at it

I'd edit that out if I were you. Incontinence is against forum rules.

I understand NASA has some long distance driving shorts that make incontinence a non-issue

No. We'd rather hear about why your soon-to-be-dead snowman is harboring a Honda fugitive.

Don't worry, we don't have any intention of going "Egyptian" on everyone's asses here -- just a level playing field
