Please welcome the new members to the 914world admin team. We're very happy to have added Randy (Roadglue) and Zach (Vacca Rabite)! In addition, Eric and Rusty have decided to come out of retired status.

Oooo.... Fresh Meat!

Posted by: hot_shoe914 Feb 24 2011, 07:15 AM

But but ....but.....Zach has a new job to concentrate on. Don't get him fired before he gets started!

Posted by: Vacca Rabite Feb 24 2011, 07:39 AM

I am happy to be able to help, and am excited to be able to give back to this community in any way that I can.

There's a sucker born every minute....

Posted by: carr914 Feb 24 2011, 08:22 AM

I was wondering if something was up when I saw that the Retired Status was not on Rusty or Eric Signature

Welcome aboard Zach & Randy

Zach works for the man and is an admin. Hmmm. This could be good or bad.

Posted by: r_towle Feb 24 2011, 09:05 AM

If Zach took the job with the man....he wont be doing admin work during the day...thats for sure.

They watch closely....be careful where you surf at work Zach.

Yeah, when I start work at the new gig, my surfing time will be restricted to after work.

But, this place does not need supervision so much. I asked to be a mod so that the club could have "official" representation at events like the ECC and Hershey, as I don't think we have East Coast admins.

I'll help where ever I can, when ever I can.

Zach

CONGRATTS !!!

Posted by: RJMII Feb 24 2011, 11:57 AM

welcome, guys. Zach, way to go on offering up representation on the East Coast.

Posted by: flipb Feb 24 2011, 12:03 PM

Doubling the size of the admin team. Are we expecting some heavy Sh!t goin down on the board? Is the Fiero board preparing an invasion or something?

Congrats, guys. Zach, make us Easterners proud. (I guess now the board is moderated from EST straight through PST, huh?)

Posted by: SirAndy Feb 24 2011, 01:26 PM

Looks like we need a European admin!

Posted by: Valy Feb 24 2011, 02:35 PM

Actually I would vote for a female admin

Posted by: Tom_T Feb 24 2011, 02:52 PM

Thanx to you all who make this possible!

... even though Gint is snapping up all of Mark's fine NOS stuff before us west coasters can even see them!

Posted by: McMark Feb 24 2011, 02:56 PM

Wait, WHAT!?

J/K

It's great to have Zach on board to fill out our east coast management.
And for those of you who don't know, Randy helped start RoadGlue which was one of the founding influences in 914Club, and therefore 914World.

Posted by: Dr Evil Feb 24 2011, 04:07 PM

Zach, you traitor

I have considered it before, but I think I like being abrasive when I feel like it.

Posted by: SLITS Feb 24 2011, 06:32 PM

Just like the gubermint .... top heavy!

Posted by: scotty b Feb 24 2011, 07:23 PM

Posted by: Pat Garvey Feb 24 2011, 07:36 PM

Uh, well, uh - wait, the Roadglue guys are here? Sweet!

So, did someone leave, or do we just have more admins to dump on?

Wait just a minute here! Have I been fired from the weenie group?

Posted by: Pat Garvey Feb 24 2011, 07:38 PM

And you do an absolutely excellent job! Keep up the good work!

Posted by: RoadGlue Feb 25 2011, 12:45 AM

Hi everyone! FEAR ME. I will be hence forth be known only as Randy the Terrible. Ok, just kidding! Hope I can help out around here some more. Sometimes I think I've forgotten more than I've learned. Been driving 914s as my daily rides since '99, except for a very short stint where I was drugged and maliciously forced to drive mid 70's Fiat 124 sedans.

I've built a few motors over the years, have worked a bit with Mark at Original Customs. Mark REALLY knows his stuff and is way more patient than me. *bows*

I'm a gear head through and through. Ride motorcycles, used to fly airplanes, have owned 20 vehicles over the past fifteen years. Oh man, let's see:

'64 Dodge Dart
'67 Dodge Dart
'74 914 2.0
'70 914 1.7
'69 Bus Westy
'71 Bus Westy
'73 Fiat 124 Sedan
'74 Fiat 124 Sedan
'67 Volvo wagon
'92 Mighty Max
'1971 914 1.7
'1974 914 2.0
'1974 914 2.0
84 Honda 400
84 Honda 750
04 Triumph 955i
82 Suzukimatic
Many misc parts cars

Geez...

Anyways...



Hi!!!!

I don't think it is a Fiero Invasion, but something Italian - the Feared X-19

Posted by: okieflyr Feb 25 2011, 07:02 AM

Thanks guys for stepping up.

I know it can be a dirty job, but somebody's gotta do it!

All cheers for East Coast Representation, thanks Zach

Posted by: rgalla9146 Feb 25 2011, 08:11 AM

Thank you, to all at 914 World. For all you do. For all of us.
Congratulations to Randy and Zach.
Roll call for Hershey attendees ?

Posted by: hot_shoe914 Feb 25 2011, 08:25 AM

I plan to be there although I will be driving my truck again. Actually, looks like I may have a 914 with me also unless the Mercedes deal goes down.

Posted by: jim_hoyland Feb 25 2011, 08:37 AM

Thanks for stepping up !

Posted by: Thomas J Bliznik Feb 25 2011, 08:50 AM

Don't know you guys personally, but know you real well on my computer screen. Welcome Zach & Randy!!

Posted by: tod914 Feb 25 2011, 08:51 AM

Greetings two new admin team members. Thanks for lending a jackstand.

Posted by: 9146986 Feb 25 2011, 09:07 AM

Great more "Screws" to keep us in line! I wanna talk to the warden!!!......oh wait wrong forum.....

Seriously, thanks guys for the unseen work! It takes more time than most people know.

Posted by: tdgray Feb 25 2011, 01:12 PM

Naw... it's the X19 guys looking to get back at us... they are very patient people

Posted by: Dr Evil Feb 25 2011, 01:36 PM

Thanks. Its nice to know my hard work does not go unnoticed.

Posted by: SLITS Feb 25 2011, 02:06 PM

Who are you again?

Posted by: Eric_Shea Feb 25 2011, 04:22 PM

Says the sandpaper to the file...

Posted by: Vacca Rabite Feb 25 2011, 07:20 PM

Scott, my Mario attack was masterful. Your rotting vagina was just gross.

Consider it teeth for the ECTK... Gimmie some warning before the next attack, though my daytime surfing is about to be curtailed by the new job.

Zach

Posted by: Dr Evil Feb 25 2011, 07:26 PM

Especially since his "vagina" attack was a PENIS. He showed me the pick after the thread got pulled. It is definitely a penis and looks like it ruptured and then died.

Posted by: scotty b Feb 26 2011, 07:49 AM

If commisioner Gordon did his job Batman would just be a weirdo

Posted by: Jake Raby Feb 26 2011, 08:15 AM

Shouldn't surfing time always be on someone's own time? Businesses are going broke everyday and their employees are sitting back collecting their bucks, not doing any productive work and surfing the net on the boss' dime.

I watch the stats on my forums weekly.. Guess when the highest concentration of usage is?? M-F from 9-11:30 Am and then from 1:30-4Pm.. Right in the middle of the work day.. More people are on that forum during those times than even in the early evening.. During lunch times the activity is near zero, I guess everyone takes a lunch break from their surfing..

(and we wonder why our damn economy sucks)

People who have never owned a business can't grasp how serious this is. My people know better than to surf on my dollar, do it once and you can ride the wave right out the door.. Don't let it hit you in the ass on the way out.

Glad to see Zach assuming Admin resonsibilities.. :-)

welcome,thank you,and

Posted by: SirAndy Feb 26 2011, 11:07 AM

Depends ...

Some of us work on the computer all day long.
I always have a browser window open with 914world loaded.

Not everybody's workday looks exactly like yours.

Posted by: balljoint Feb 26 2011, 11:16 AM

Do these changes have any effect on my own admin privileges?

Posted by: SirAndy Feb 26 2011, 12:05 PM

Consider me notified ...

Posted by: Vacca Rabite Feb 26 2011, 12:08 PM

Like Andy, I work in front of a computer all day and keep a window to the forum open. I may be "on" all day, but don't spend a lot of time actually posting.

Zach

Posted by: rick 918-S Feb 26 2011, 02:27 PM

I post all day. I work straight commish so no production, no money. I do what I want when I want.

Posted by: sww914 Feb 26 2011, 08:32 PM

Welcome admins!
One question, 4cyl or 6cyl?
OK, one more- What size tires can I fit on my 914?
OK, one more- how much more does a V-8 weigh than a 6?

Posted by: sww914 Feb 26 2011, 08:33 PM

Always a ray of sunshine!

Posted by: Ian Stott Feb 27 2011, 04:36 PM

Since Moncton is the host city of Canada's largest car show and James from Maine comes,(car of the month winner) to make 2 914's in the area any Admin who comes I will buy the first beer and get you the freshest lobster you have ever had! This is very important in the spirit of international relations. James was not sure of my daughters accent which brought a lot of chuckles at dinner! Congrats to the new admins and thanks to the existing ones for a great site.

(race ya to the border!)

Posted by: McMark Feb 28 2011, 02:32 PM

Aren't you heading that way anyway, Eric? What's a few more miles for LOBSTER!

Posted by: Eric_Shea Feb 28 2011, 02:35 PM

No $hit... I'm spending $800 in gas to get $400 in parts, I might as well spend another $600 in gas for a lobster dinner!

No worries... Sime is paying all my gas for this trip.

Posted by: McMark Feb 28 2011, 02:37 PM

Does he know you marked up his oil lines that much?

Posted by: Eric_Shea Feb 28 2011, 02:42 PM

He hasn't gotten the bill for those yet...
