All,

I have been a list member for almost five years and during that time I have 
been accused of being an elitest, a snob, a braggart about the money I spent 
on my restoration and now poor judgement in my driving.

The first post I have made in months and it is always the same. I used to 
love this and other lists, but without fail I have been insulted and derided 
by list members and I have had it. It's a simple matter of not doing this 
because it is not fun anymore.

I remember when I started up SoCalROC. I was told by many people that I 
would burn out because I would be the only one doing the organizing and 
work. I didn't think so then but I do now. As soon as I stopped making the 
effort the club died.

Don't get me wrong. There are plenty of nice people on this list that do 
good things. Whatever the reasons are I am continuously insulted here and 
who needs that?

People, no matter what your personal feelings are about anyone on this list, 
personal remarks are not warranted. It is rude and it should not be 
tolerated. I have brought this up in the past only to receive "can't we all 
just get along" emails. Obvisouly I cannot and since my continued presence 
in the cyber roadster community only gets me grief I have decided to not 
participate anymore.

The stupid Stan/Dean wars get so old that we finally have to ask them to 
take their fight off list. The ridiculous personal comments that people make 
here are an affect that this is a non-monitored forum. It is not an 
enjoyable medium for me so I am leaving it. For those that remain here I 
would think you should demand that all personal comments be made OFF LIST.

So to the person who just insulted my driving skills I say I will not make 
pesonal comments on this list. It is not the place for it. I hope in the 
future you restrict your personal comments to off list. SInce you do not 
know me personally, you have not earned the right to insult me in public.

As long as this list tolerates personal comments it is a failure as a public 
forum.

So good luck to all of you.


Andrew Murphy
