Hi DB I hope all is well. As of September 10th 2010 Around 4:30pm a good friend of mine was involved in an accident with his truck. He is Fine physically, he is just shaken up. Apparently his tire blew sending him into a guard rail. Not sure if he is eligible for recourse from the damage done. His truck is in bad shape. It was his only truck, and the one, he used for his mobile repair business and tool sales. He has yet to make a profit, you all know that times are hard and the competition is harder. If anybody would like to send him a word of comfort please log onto his site and send him an email. he is not in a happy place right now and is in need of friends. Any help would be appreciated. I would appreciate it. He is a good Kid with potential. His family has lost two really close relatives this week, first was his grand mother. They're going through a week of hell. Thank you for your time, and please have a show of Diesel Bomber encouragement for Steve and True Performance Diesel!
Thank You!
Rustin

Thanks to ALL BOMBERS THAT RESPONDED! I will try to get him to post pics on this thread.

 

I moved it - because its wasnt in the right forum and thats the job of the people that are on staff. Who other than a staff member do you think would have moved this? Is there a problem with moving it?

The "Diesels in Distress" forum is to help people with their broken trucks - nothing else.

 

not to be a donkey cavity, but if u think about it, he was right. they guy does have a diesel in distress and needs help. but needed help in another way.


i think u made right decision with moving it here, just because i think more will see it down here.

 

It would have been great to have been notified. I thought I made the right choice puting it there. After all his truck is broken. :LOL: He was distressed about it. If I offended you Dr. Evil for putting it there. My appologies! Next time PM a person when you do it. It seems kinda rude to do it to thread that is a misstake without notification rather then doing it becuase you can. As far as people seing this the numbers are not that high hear in the bomb shelter. Maybe a new designation would be appropriate.
The Bomb Shelter is for off topic non-diesel related threads. Wich means anything goes aslong as Religion and polotics are not mentioned. This may be the place for it. then again it may not be. What can I say. You have the almighty Power to make the Decision Dr. Evil I don't nessarly agree with it. This is why we live in a democratic society. You make the Call we abide or go.
BTW did you send Steve an email Dr. Evil? After all he is one of your sponsors.

 

i would have moved it to rustin that is for emergencies only this is the place becuase steve is not a diesel so leave it be it will get plenty of play in here and DB is to big for us to NOTIFY everybody when a post has been moved so post it in the proper place and we wont have to move it

 

This isn't about why the thread was moved.

Get well steve!

 

Ok Fine! Steve is not a deiesel. but his truck is in need of new skins. like a door and a bed and maybe a lawyer. I don't know I am not upset about the move. I just feel it would have been the right thing to notify a person. How was I supposed to know what was the proper place. I was starting a thread on what I thought was the right place with all of the choices. I know you all are buisy and DB being as big as it is. If you have time to move the thread and it is honorable. then be honorable to let a person know. Reguardless of the problem Forgive me.
Thank you for having a site worth posting in.

DieselMinded has the right attitude! Thats why he is where he is at, and we are where we are at! Just want steve to know he has Friends. So please send him an E-mail or something.
Thanks to all that have.

Just an update. His other relative was his Uncle. The situation with that is. It is now being treated as a homicide. Jeeze when it rains it Floods. I am going to stop. I hope steve forgives me on this one. He is sure going through it.

 

Now What Exactly Happened Here?

 

Nobody seems to know.

 

#1 - I do NOT have to notify you or anyone else if I move a post or posts.

#2 - I do NOT have the TIME to notify everyone whos posts I move. You have NO idea how many posts and threads that I (and the rest of staff) move in a week. To ask for a notification PM is ridiculous - and its not going to happen.

#3 - AGAIN, the "diesels in distress" forum is for BROKEN trucks that dont run. The goal is getting the vehicle back up and running. Door skins and paint dont qualify as being in "distress".

#4 - this DOES belong in the Bomb Shelter - and if you posted it in the wrong place, which you did, it isnt your place to question where I put it.

#5 - Did I send Steve an email? - No I didnt (which BTW is none of your business) - I am on vacation and havent had the time.

#6 - What is with the attitude?


I am sorry for your bad fortune Steve - trucks can be fixed - the important thing is your alive.
