My new signature is "Honda Techs new corporate owners don't like us little guys, but real honda drivers do".

If anyone wants in on Stealth bumps....

Well, I can sure as hell tell you that I will in no way ever contribute to that site again unless it directly or indirectly helps me sell something and I hope everyone else in this situation does that as well.

And yes, they banned my username because "XENOCRON" is the same name as my business and that would be "promotional and unfair to the paying sponsors" which is the ------- gayest ---- in the world...half of the sponsors on that site dont even know how to pump their own gas.

As far as being "BANNED" from a site, you certainly could claim defamation...someone might see that I am banned and associate that with something negative about my business...there are other things.

I wouldnt sue for money, it would be a principle matter for me...

The funny part about all of this, is that the rumor about Internet Brands is that they are trying to buy up many (all) of the large auto internet forums, once they do they will have a monopoly...they can charge what they want to advertisers.

But their ultimate goal is cut out the middle-men, wholesalers, the shops, and tuners...and go direct to the manufacturers. Customers would be pushed or funneled right from their various sites direct to manufacturers to sell direct. They get their cut and the manu gets to make more for their product. Everyone else loses out...including the customers, the market will go down the tubes and the manufacturers will then realize their mistake after its too late.

Those that are continuing to stay on with H-T, and pay more money in advertising...are only fattening the piggy-banks of those venture capitalists who are scheming to cut them completely out down the line. How funny is the irony in that...funding your own potential demise.

This is just like what NHRA did with import racing. Everyone wanted to be part of it thinking they would be gods in racing. GM took out the honda crowd. Ended the small shop fame and well the rest is history.


People dont want to believe that a faceless company isnt screwing them they want to believe that they will become wealthy by for example h-t only having certain people sell. That gives them a superior complex just like those who were running NHRA sport compact racing. Thought and logic is something most people dont achieve once in their life. Greed,Greed,Greed occur daily. Im very glad HMT is the spot we are in a growing community that for me is a great source for information and I make some bucks too besides my used parts online business.

It's a large market, but for some reason rich guys in suits buying ---- up to one day sell parts to the brokest racers ever doesn't make much sense. There isn't rich suit type of money in this game.

The other thing I get a kick out of is the HT mods running around enforcing these communist rules for the fat cat owners, and in turn being paid nothing for it. haha. The jokes on them.

Refer to nhra dropping out of the import racing world. They brought in gm thinking every kid would own a GM well that didnt happen nor no one really cared. My dreams of nhra leaving game true next honda-tech and I will have back what I love real import racing.
