^ that pretty much sums it up.
People know people here, some of us are like brothers to each other and some are actual family. We do things simple here, I in no way hate the newbs or Mike(Gsx_tc) but we like simple.
People know me from here and other venues I have attended or done business with. Gain a rep, choose the right people to know and just live the way we have done this since before the org (i wasn't around then).
I don't care if your ride is nice, there is a member ride section for that, if people want to see your car send a link to your MR thread instead of posting a pic in everyone's thread.
Sorry,
