Is anyone brave enough to go back and get Spuzz?  I think I might have his e-mail address if you all want me to, I can go search for it. |

I gotta make my first post here.
As the others above have mentioned, FGI used to be more of a close-knit place where most everyone was friendly (or at least civil), and you could ask any question, no matter how stupid. Granted, if the question was just pure idiocy, then you'd get flamed, but that was the way it was.
Now, it's gone all generic.
I still post there, but nowhere near as much as I used to. I'm lucky to make 2-3 posts a day now, as opposed to the 8-10 I did not too long ago.
A buddy of mine (Bordercollie - anyone remember him?) turned me on to GolfDiscussions, so I've been spending the majority of my time over there. The site is almost exactly the same format as this one. I've met (for the lack of a better term) a lot of people there that have extensive knowledge about all sorts of equipment, and have some pretty good inside information.
At least now I've got a third place to hang out, besides GD and FGI.

We flame idiocy here too, but we let aske decide what is idiotic and what isn't. (It was Stroh's job for a while, but we didn't know when we asked him that he drinks pretty much 24/7.) The biggest problem is that 95% of what goes on here is pure idiocy, which results in a lot of flaming. That's just how we roll.
At any rate, welcome.

That post is complete idiocy. Please move along, you are serving no purpose here. Not even worth a smite, more of a cod-slap if you will.  |
