Pretty much daily. Sometimes more, sometimes less. >> How long have you been visting RAMFM? Too long to actually remember; I think around 6 or 7 years. >> What are your contributions to RAMFM? A few things here and there, but I consider myself one of the groups proud cynics. At best, I try to contribute controversy. Guess I'm a troll... >>What is your favorite memory of RAMFM? Thunder Alley >>What is your saddest memory of RAMFM? This (or any) newsgroup isn't so serious that I have 'sad memories'. >>What is your funniest memory of RAMFM? It's a tie between some of the Thunder Alleys and dwight's foray into alt.troll. >>How would you improve RAMFM? I'd love to see CJ and some guys from AHPBBFM stir it up in here more often. >>Should RAMFM be moderated? Absolutely not >>Does RAMFM rock? Sometimes. But the 'What color should I paint my racing stripes?' threads are pretty lame. Almost Martha Stewart-ish... >>Will someone take offense at this post? Most definitely. And that's good. And I'll add two more: Q: Who are your favorite RAMFM personalities? A: In no particular order, Michael Johnson, Patrick, dwight, Tim (Musttanguy) Q: Who do you miss most from RAMFM?

Many times I scratch my head wondering why folks can't come up with topics to post. It's so easy. Just post interesting things you read in a magazine or find on the net, trends you see on the street, something you [just] learned in the garage, something you heard from a buddy, maybe about a run-in you had on the street or track, or just go off-topic. The topics are endless. Case in point: This week alone I probably started at least a dozen threads, and I was able to do in between doing all my "homework" and the work I bring home. You multiply 12 posts times the number of people who visit and you'd have one hopping newsgroup. > >>Should RAMFM be moderated? Never. Moderated is about as much fun as reading a tech manual. It's interesting for as long as you can keep your eyes open. > >>Does RAMFM rock? Yes, when two things are happening. 1) When lots of different people are posting and adding new topics. 2) Sad to say, but it rocks whenever a troll comes by. Not any run of the mill troll mind you, I mean a good troll. The last one, whatever his name was (I can't remember now), sucked! He was boring as hell! On the other hand, TnT was decent, but then got boring because he got so repetitious. The best one to date in my eyes was the White Tornado. He was intelligent, had a point he was trying to make, and he had a good sense of humor. > >>Will someone take offense at this post?

To wax poetic, ramfm is like a river, different water, fishies, & slimy things floating by, but it's always the same river. >>What is your saddest memory of RAMFM? If you read the archives you see threads routinely racking up 50-100 posts, funny posts, serious posts, knowledgeable posts. It was so alive. It was something worth having, but it's gone now. >>What is your funniest memory of RAMFM? That thread with the Corvette guy, LS1/Z06, who posted the link to the photo of his speedo pegged at 180 mph and claimed it had been taken at Daytona. Omigod, everyone was tag teaming on him and he kept it going for days. >>How would you improve RAMFM? It is what it is. >>Should RAMFM be moderated? See above. >>Does RAMFM rock? No. Pretty dull lately. Q: Who are your favorite RAMFM personalities? Even though he hasn't been around in years, it's still Tungsten David. Q: Who do you miss most from RAMFM? Bill S. wins this one in a walk. I don't know what the deal is/was with him. I mean, Google made for-profit use of his posts from day one, but some nobody comes along and reposts ramfm on his itty-bitty web site, and Bill S. is out of here. Now the same thing has happened to ahpbbfm, yet he still posts there. The guy has his faults, but he knows so much and he was so generous with that knowledge. His exit was the single worst thing ever to happen to this NG. 180 Out > Q: Who do you miss most from RAMFM? > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > 180 Out Perhaps you should have given a second thought to antagonizing him and others day after day after day in oh-so-many threads.

Hey look, I made someone's list! :) There are a couple of people not mentioned that I remember and enjoyed. Sam(uel) was one of them. THere was also the guy in New York whom I remember had gotten into a few fights in his days. I always enjoyed conversing with him. >>Q: Who do you miss most from RAMFM? >>A: Again, in no particular order, CJ, Mike P., Steve E. > > Micheal Dike, White Tornado, Lyons, Anthony, CJ, the guy that had the > 12 second "stock" LX (what was his name again?), Bill S... all that > brought a lot to the table and made their mark. I've emailed with Anthony. Last I heard, he was back in Texas. I remember when I first came to RAMFM, I thought David Lyons was the moderator. Every post had replies from him. I enjoyed Dyke's posts. Wasn't he B.L.Zebub, or something like that too. What about Emily? I also miss Patrick. What I miss was having the time to stay up, BS'ing with him night after night. Our lives have evolved and changed over the last eight or nine years. The same goes for Anthony too. But I lived near enough to Anthony that I could get together with him a few times a year for races and baseball games (Mariners). Steve E 72 Skylark Custom455 > I also miss Patrick.

For a few years there, I'd stay up 'till 3-4 AM responding to posts and IMing. I just couldn't keep that up. I was going sleepless trying to fit everything -- family, job, hobbies, school -- else in. Doing that now is impossible. Because on top of what I had, I've added 5 hours of commuting time and about 8-10 hours of fitness to my week, plus home projects take up my weekends. Now, most times, when I sign on to the NG I don't even have the time to respond to my own threads. One of these days we'll meet up again. Patrick '93 Cobra >>I also miss Patrick.

I remember manually creating the group on the news server at the ISP I ran at the time. It took a while for our upstream feed to carry the group, but a couple of us were posting messages locally for a few weeks. During the voting process there were even a few curmudgeons who voted no because they didn't want to "fragment" the Ford owners. heh.... Cheers, > Just wondered how many visit RAMFM.

I read the newsgroup when I'm bored, looking for a little fun. I read when I'm happy, hoping to share the good feelings. I read when my car breaks down, knowing that many here will know how I feel. The one exception was after 9/11. For some reason, I couldn't bring myself back to the community for days on end. My perspectives were all screwed up. Mustangs, even football, seemed so irrelevant at the time. But RAMFM is nothing more or less than a microcosm of humanity in general, and there are a lot of good people here.

I'm back to tooling around in the little red put-put. However... not too long after I got it back, someone stole the back piping that went over the front tire wells while I was working at the mall.

Nowadays I mostly get sucked into political discussions. I have answered the questions like "How much hp can I get from a pulley swap" too many times to count. I let the younger whipper snappers take care of the monotonous replies. Besides it makes them feel important and useful which only lasts for a couple years before they tire of it too. This is the most important reason why we need new blood here on a regular basis. ;) 1- Almost daily 1- Years 3- Seldom posts new topics/responds to existing topics John in NC 2- 69 FB's (son just got his Ragoon red '05GT) (just sold '93LX) other Fords: '61 Falcon 4dr '65 Galaxie convertible '68 F-100 w/Ranger option package '71 LTD 4dr HT '93 Crown Vic How often, on average, do you visit RAMFM? 6 Every so often. I used to be a HEAVY poster here in the late 1990's. (about 1200 posts) Grew tired of the constant crap. Jumped ship with CJ when he started the big block group. How long have you been visting RAMFM? 1 Years - Since at least 1997. Usenet did some fanagling here or there around 1996-97. I'm pretty sure I've been in/on this group and the Explorer group prior to that. 1994 rings a bell. What WERE your contributions to RAMFM? 1 Often posts new topics/responds to existing topics.
