the only thing i am curious about is how much tbs.com sold for
A dollar, one buck, one clam so cheap and they fucked it up in a week


Must have been a LOT for Savino to not sell it to Grimsley.
Yea but the board and the community would have been better off if he did sell to SGRIM but that's just my opinion


i highly doubt he'd let the board run itself the way it was.

Racism on tb? Wow.

I just don't like Shane on a personal level from way back when the t6p shit went down is all. I honestly couldn't comment on how well or how poorly he runs a Buick BB.

TBS board again???
« Reply #48 on: January 10 2011, 06:39:26 PM »
here is what pisses me off...No heads up to core members that made the site what it was. To even offer it for sale. Then I have sent Mike PM's with no response...eve n in reference to the BPG site as that is hosted by Jigawatt. I will continue to support the MAGNA and Toronto Section and will respond to my posts...but will offer no tech info...not that it was worth anything...but I have pointed people in the direction to find help...TBS was fun

I can help you find a new host, should you want to change. Not responding to pms, etc about the hosting is plain wrong.

I will not post there under any circumstances. Such sites sell advertising space and basically use the board membership as free labor. Bullshit, and to hell with that notion, I say (in earnest and with all due forthright honesty).

You have to read between the lines sometimes to find it.  Someone there recently made a post wishing that movie theaters should be segregated so they wouldn't have to worry about black people.  I said something about not realizing Governor Wallace drove a Turbo Regal.

Y'know, Mike might be unhappy about letting the board go himself, just the money was too good to turn down. I don't know, just trying to play devil's advocate and be slow to throw a guy under the bus. Could someone enlighten me as to what he might be referencing when he says that the negativity may have driven him off?

there seemed to be in the last year or so a ton of the main posters that just kinda stopped posting.   I guess i never really noticed what it was that drove them off.

I stopped going there a long time ago simply 'cause A: I like this board more and, B: It kept forgetting who I was, necessitating excrutiating re-registrations.

I thought  he was talking about last year when he had problems with an alternator he sold.

I won't go into details but he didn't like it when we subjected him to the same critizism we would hang onto any other product or vendor. Snakeoil is snakeoil.
Mike gave it hard to others and got pissed when he was called out by some of the senior guru's.
