I'm not looking for an argument, as I probably click on the links more than others. I love any gas site that I can find, just seemed a little odd that the thread was started about adding links to posts(where ever they are) and the same post had a link at the end of it. I have nothing against it, and I apoligize if I came off in a hostile way.

Dwaine Buck most bashed oldgas member in history. There is no other member that has received even 1/10th of the heat he has taken. When cheeses site has its online swap meet I will post a link over here. During my day I check both sites one after the other. One does not take away from the other for me. Have a great day.

The moderators have discussed this issue in the past. If we felt that this was a serious problem we would have acted on it.
We do want for sale topics to be in the For Sale form. The exceptions are a link in a signature or an offer to sell in response to an item wanted topic. Those are acceptable within reason in all forums except for Showcase.
I personally feel that by posting items for sale in the Petro News forum and then requiring viewers to click on a link just means fewer people will see the items than if they were posted with a picture in the For Sale forum.
Dwaine tends to do things differently than most people. For whatever reason, his actions sometimes upset other people. I try to remind myself, "If this were anyone else, would I or other people feel the same way?"
I appreciate the support and loyalty expressed by so many of you in so many ways. There is really no competitive thing going between Oldgas.com and Cheese's site as far as I'm concerned. The Oldgas.com Link Directory has a great deal of links to petro sites. That is part of the mission we have undertaken to network together the online community of collectors, vendors and others.

I think both sites are great too, most of the time I open two windows and flip back and forth between them. But I'm on the computer way too much. LOL

What the heck was that Dick? Did I miss something? I guess I'll have to review the topic. I remember when I first met Dwaine at the 2004 Front Range Gas Bash. He was pushing this site BIG TIME. I told him I knew of the site but was not a member. I signed up that weekend (I'm sure some hate him for that too) before he posted this picture of the oldgasers at the meet. Here is a link to the original post the pic came from. http://www.oldgas.com/shoptalk/ubb/Forum2/HTML/000299.html He worked like hell to get us to stand still long enough to get this picture. Every time I saw him that weekend he was talking to someone about oldgas. Well he's pretty much been run off. Yea he can be a bit abrasive sometimes but he was a real supporter of this site. And yea TT I think you are #2. Wait until Dwaine is gone completely to see how much worse it will get for you. But I think you are hard like me! You won't get run off like some of the others. Does anyone remember a guy named Ron Bettin who used to post great show pictures and some nice signs in the BOTW? So much for HAPPY FRIDAY! Chris
