Most of you long time members know that I rarely delete topics. However, I have deleted all three of the topics associated with the now infamous 'tripower' and The Parts Place. I realise when I delete a topic I permanently destroy some thoughtful insights from some. And to those I appologize. I am not trying to hide the facts but rather move on from a situation that was getting very confusing(3 separate topics)to many new viewers. Hurtful things were said and done by several parties including myself and now those same parties have all expressed remorse for the way they handled this situation and since the issues have now been resolved off the forums as they should be, I see no purpose for them to remain.

My intended purpose of this forum remains;

To create a place where individuals can post both positive and negative comments about their personal experiences with both individuals and suppliers of Pontiac related items. I believe the forum has and will continue to increase the overall quality and availability of both products and customer service in our hobby. Of course this makes things more difficult for all vendors including myself because our accountability to the hobby becomes more visible to our potential customer base. This new form of accountability brought on by the power of the internet is something that we all are not used to. Hopefully we can all learn to use this medium responsibly.

You'll notice I have changed the wording at the top of this forum to hopefully prevent similar occurances from happening again.

Good call Chris

[Blackcat]

Sounds Good!

Usually I'm found working on my Pontiac. If you want to find me Look for the white picket fence and all the old Pontiacs parked outside. And the half dissembled engine sprawled all over the driveway!

[Marty Phipps]

Good decision Chris.
I don't really think any of us that participate in this post on a regular basis would disagree

[Philcol]

CCass..........a true gentleman!

[ddouble]

A sound choice.

The DotRod rides again.

[69firebird4004spd]

good call Ccass

Ranked first in most useless info presented, and dang proud of it..

[goatseeker]

Smart decision Chris. Many casual visitors surfers might well have gotten the wrong idea about the involved parties by not reading the whole thread.
Let's start with a clean slate.

GOOD MOVE CHRIS BUT DON'T YOU THINK THE BASHING OF BRUCE FULPER HAS GONE ON LONG ENOUGH ALSO...AFTER ALL PARTS PLACE WAS ONLY 1 WEEK..ROCK & ROLL ENG HAS BEEN MONTHS MAYBE YEARS.....

[Tom Vaught]

I personally have never been ripped off by Bruce.

I read the posts everyday and am amazed by the number of people who have had issues with him. I
do not consider it bashing if a "wronged person"
wants to publish his info on the Unofficial BB
board. I thought this was the whole point of this
part of the board. There have been topics about me published in this forum. (up to this point all
good so far). If a new internet guy finds this board (PY) and decides to post a complaint I do not think you can erase what has previously been posted without a good reason. Tom V.

I would probably buy from Bruce tomorrow if he
had what I wanted, I could inspect it personally,
and I could take it at the time of sale. Just
like any other swap meet vendor.

In the past I tried deleting posts that I felt were unfair toward R & R. I have also suspended members for unnecessary second hand comments made toward Bruce Fulper. The balance of this forum remains as is exactly as posted by the membership. So I am not playing favorites. It is simply impossible for me to read and evaluate the validity of ALL the negative things said about Bruce Fulper.

[Fulper]

Dear RAmAIRfive421-
As you can see by Caspersons answer he's a hypocrite. Never dealt with me. He knows I'm a very fun guy, but yet he allows liars and negative posts on his forum - why? He's embarrassed to have been a part of stealing the Maple Grove event from me. Spreading rumors - rumors - rumors. No one - not a single person - has a boni-fide complaint with us. A one time response on the official bash Bruce site - The Unofficial Business Burea - will be posted now too.

Any rational mechanical Pontiac'r that wants to learn what's new, how we do it, and save money - just call us and introduce yourself. We're having so much fun. Especailly at the race track where the bull stops - and we impress realists.
Sincerely,
Bruce Fulper

Bruce, I can't believe you're still mad about MG from 8 years ago. The folks at Maple Grove wanted you out, and got you out well before they contacted us. That's the truth.

You have always been welcome to post your thoughts here and defend your position same as everybody else. You have chosen not to.
