There is a goofy website called “Gods Of Off Road”
where you vote on vehicles. Well there are lots of
blazers on the site that are way high up in voting.
There is one AZVJC member, our webmaster, Mike
Chatfield on the site at present. If you have time
you ought to go there and vote for him and some of the
other Jeeps - and if you want, vote against the
blazers (really I don’t have anything against blazers
- but off road gods?). At present a stock yota is
leading the voting at a score of almost 8 out of 10.
If you win for a given month I think you get a
T-shirt. Mike might want a new T-shirt.
Go here to vote:
http://www.godsofoffroad.com
There is another one of these voting sites at:
http://www.4x4destinations.org/
They break the voting for a vehicle into two
categories: form & function.

I know this topic was brought up and polled a few
months ago. I think I voted against the change.
However, for the past two months I have been using
several bulletin boards and have very much enjoyed
them. For Example the Pirate's of the Rubicon Board,
S.N.O.R.T.'s board, and the JeepForum. I have really
come to enjoy them because they give me the freedom to
look at the topics that are of the most interest and
skip the ones that are uninteresting to me. If you
have moderators for the various forums they can
monitor their forum and keep OT posts off that forum
or send the post to the forum it belongs in.
Would there be any interest in reconsidering a change
to the bulletin board approach?
Just wondering.

For what it's worth, you can basically do the same thing through the
Yahoo! interface:
http://www.groups.yahoo.com/group/az_vjc/
Of course, the posts aren't organized into forums, but you still have
the freedom to choose which topics you wish to read. Only thing is,
you have to keep weeding through for replies to the topic so you
don't miss any.
Either way, it beats receiving a million e-mails a day.

Subject: Re: Coversion to Bulletin Board type Forum
Let me clarify.
The only way this could possibly (and I even doubt this) work and not become
the mess that many other BBSs have become is to have membership 100%
moderated. Each person signing up would have to prove and be verified by
someone that they live in AZ (it is one of the rules) and has a Jeep
(another of the rules). Without these rules, we'd have everybody and their
brother with every make and model of vehicle from every state and country
joing the BBS. The board would quickly get jammed up with non-AZ and
non-Jeep stuff. It would be no better than the crap that many of the better
BBs have become. We'd get the internet trolls that have nothing better to do
than sit at work all day and post trash to the BB just for fun. You kick
them out and they come back under a new username. This would lead to many
headaches for the moderators. JU is a perfect example of this.
In addition, there are many logistical issues. We'd have to worry about
storage space for the messages and bandwidth traffic from people casually
surfing the BBS. I think we'd wear out the welcome of the hosting company we
have now rather quickly. Storage space and bandwidth cost money.

For all of those that said:
"NO!"
Would you be interested in it, if you still received e-mails and could
"reply" to a post via e-mail?
The idea is that you could "subscribe" to whichever forums (ie. CJ Tech, TJ
Tech, Trips, General Chit-Chat, etc...)you wanted to. On the subscribed
forums, you would receive (if you choose) an e-mail version of each post.
You could then reply to the post, as long as you don't modify the "Key" in
the subject, and it would be posted to the proper forum and thread -- OR --
You could choose to reply directly to the sender.
You could also start a new post simply by sending an e-mail to the proper
forum. (ie. CJTech@A..., TJTech@A..., Trips@A...,
ChitChat@A..., etc...) You wouldn't have to be "Subscribed" to the
forum you are posting to either.
Additionally, moderators could be assigned to each forum to keep people "in
line."
As a bonus, it would also remove any advertisements :)
This is something I am working on, I am building it using C# and ASPX pages
-- so it should be pretty fast. It will be some time before it is ready, but
I might have a "Beta" version ready around New Years.

There is a goofy website called Gods Of Off Road
where you vote on vehicles. Well there are lots of
blazers on the site that are way high up in voting.
There is one AZVJC member, our webmaster, Mike
Chatfield on the site at present. If you have time
you ought to go there and vote for him and some of the
other Jeeps - and if you want, vote against the
blazers (really I dont have anything against blazers
- but off road gods?). At present a stock yota is
leading the voting at a score of almost 8 out of 10.
If you win for a given month I think you get a
T-shirt. Mike might want a new T-shirt.

Subject: Re: Coversion to Bulletin Board type Forum
What about the issues I posted? Trolls, bandwidth, space, member location
and vehicle verification?
My concern is that we will become (as most popular BBs become when they get
too popular) too big and lose our identity. They become a haven for bored
people that have nothing better to do than spew trash (Yeah, I know, we have
David Withers, but he has gone to digest form). Yeah, we could have
moderators to try to control this, but it is often a losing battle. An email
list is harder to troll from (except for David W.) because many can't get
personal emails at work or it is monitored so they don't even try.
Look at what we have now. Our classifieds section is already becoming a
place for non-Jeep owners to post their non-Jeep stuff for sale. They fill
in just enough info to join to post an ad. Look at this Bruce Bot guy. I've
never seen him post or even heard of him and he has several non-Jeep related
ads in the General Jeep classifieds. His profile has his name and location
and email address. That's it. No Jeeps listed at all. Translation. It is a
free, easy place to throw his ads so he joined just to do that.
We'd have people from all over posting the "can anyone post pics of a red
Jeep with blue tires, green wheels, yellow rollbar pads, and a poodle on the
hood" threads. Who wants to try to control that?
Even if we had the option to just receive emails from the BB, we'd still get
all the crap threads, just in email form instead.

Date: Thu Aug 8, 2002 4:09pm
Subject: Re: Burnin money on the jeep
I have had both the 4.5 and the 5.5... The 5.5" lift is MUCH MUCH MUCH
better riding on the steet. Id go for the 4.5" coils from RE, and the long
arm kit... If you look around, you can probably get a great price... I
picked mine up from Arizona Trailwerks... www.aztrailwerks.com Ask to
speak with Brian, and tell him your an AZVJC member... He works GREAT deals,
and will install it at a good cost as well, should you decide to have him do
it. If you cant afford that bit, go with the 4.5" kit by RE... In my
oppinion, it is far superior to any of the other lifts out there, and is
designed well for the rough 4 wheeling this area provides us with, as well
as being roadworthy. The only thing I noticed, is that you HAVE to keep
your bushings lubed up, to ensure the longevity, of the lift, and the smooth
ride.
Hope this helps...

There is a goofy website called “Gods Of Off Road”
where you vote on vehicles. Well there are lots of

There is one AZVJC member, our webmaster, Mike
Chatfield on the site at present. If you have time
you ought to go there and vote for him and some of the
other Jeeps - and if you want, vote against the
blazers (really I don’t have anything against blazers
- but off road gods?). At present a stock yota is
leading the voting at a score of almost 8 out of 10.
If you win for a given month I think you get a
T-shirt. Mike might want a new T-shirt.
Go here to vote:
http://www.godsofoffroad.com
There is another one of these voting sites at:
http://www.4x4destinations.org/
They break the voting for a vehicle into two
categories: form & function.

Subject: Coversion to Bulletin Board type Forum
I know this topic was brought up and polled a few
months ago. I think I voted against the change.
However, for the past two months I have been using
several bulletin boards and have very much enjoyed
them. For Example the Pirate's of the Rubicon Board,
S.N.O.R.T.'s board, and the JeepForum. I have really
come to enjoy them because they give me the freedom to
look at the topics that are of the most interest and
skip the ones that are uninteresting to me. If you
have moderators for the various forums they can
monitor their forum and keep OT posts off that forum
or send the post to the forum it belongs in.
Would there be any interest in reconsidering a change
to the bulletin board approach?
Just wondering.

For what it's worth, you can basically do the same thing through the
Yahoo! interface:
http://www.groups.yahoo.com/group/az_vjc/
Of course, the posts aren't organized into forums, but you still have
the freedom to choose which topics you wish to read. Only thing is,
you have to keep weeding through for replies to the topic so you
don't miss any.
Either way, it beats receiving a million e-mails a day.

Subject: Re: Coversion to Bulletin Board type Forum
Let me clarify.
The only way this could possibly (and I even doubt this) work and not become
the mess that many other BBSs have become is to have membership 100%
moderated. Each person signing up would have to prove and be verified by
someone that they live in AZ (it is one of the rules) and has a Jeep
(another of the rules). Without these rules, we'd have everybody and their
brother with every make and model of vehicle from every state and country
joing the BBS. The board would quickly get jammed up with non-AZ and
non-Jeep stuff. It would be no better than the crap that many of the better
BBs have become. We'd get the internet trolls that have nothing better to do
than sit at work all day and post trash to the BB just for fun. You kick
them out and they come back under a new username. This would lead to many
headaches for the moderators. JU is a perfect example of this.
In addition, there are many logistical issues. We'd have to worry about
storage space for the messages and bandwidth traffic from people casually
surfing the BBS. I think we'd wear out the welcome of the hosting company we
have now rather quickly. Storage space and bandwidth cost money.

Subject: RE: Coversion to Bulletin Board type Forum
For all of those that said:
"NO!"
Would you be interested in it, if you still received e-mails and could
"reply" to a post via e-mail?
The idea is that you could "subscribe" to whichever forums (ie. CJ Tech, TJ
Tech, Trips, General Chit-Chat, etc...)you wanted to. On the subscribed
forums, you would receive (if you choose) an e-mail version of each post.
You could then reply to the post, as long as you don't modify the "Key" in
the subject, and it would be posted to the proper forum and thread -- OR --
You could choose to reply directly to the sender.
You could also start a new post simply by sending an e-mail to the proper
forum. (ie. CJTech@A..., TJTech@A..., Trips@A...,
ChitChat@A..., etc...) You wouldn't have to be "Subscribed" to the
forum you are posting to either.
Additionally, moderators could be assigned to each forum to keep people "in
line."
As a bonus, it would also remove any advertisements :)
This is something I am working on, I am building it using C# and ASPX pages
-- so it should be pretty fast. It will be some time before it is ready, but
I might have a "Beta" version ready around New Years.

where you vote on vehicles. Well there are lots of
blazers on the site that are way high up in voting.
There is one AZVJC member, our webmaster, Mike
Chatfield on the site at present. If you have time
you ought to go there and vote for him and some of the
other Jeeps - and if you want, vote against the
blazers (really I dont have anything against blazers
- but off road gods?). At present a stock yota is
leading the voting at a score of almost 8 out of 10.
If you win for a given month I think you get a
T-shirt. Mike might want a new T-shirt.
Go here to vote:

There is another one of these voting sites at:
http://www.4x4destinations.org/
They break the voting for a vehicle into two
categories: form & function.

Subject: Saturday Morning Predator
Hey all,
I was thinking about going on the Predator run this Saturday morning with
Scott McMillan.
Anyone else besides Tom Le going?
If you have seen the trail and think you can make it, now would be a good
time to try.

Subject: Re: Coversion to Bulletin Board type Forum
What about the issues I posted? Trolls, bandwidth, space, member location
and vehicle verification?
My concern is that we will become (as most popular BBs become when they get
too popular) too big and lose our identity. They become a haven for bored
people that have nothing better to do than spew trash (Yeah, I know, we have
David Withers, but he has gone to digest form). Yeah, we could have
moderators to try to control this, but it is often a losing battle. An email
list is harder to troll from (except for David W.) because many can't get
personal emails at work or it is monitored so they don't even try.
Look at what we have now. Our classifieds section is already becoming a
place for non-Jeep owners to post their non-Jeep stuff for sale. They fill
in just enough info to join to post an ad. Look at this Bruce Bot guy. I've
never seen him post or even heard of him and he has several non-Jeep related
ads in the General Jeep classifieds. His profile has his name and location
and email address. That's it. No Jeeps listed at all. Translation. It is a
free, easy place to throw his ads so he joined just to do that.
We'd have people from all over posting the "can anyone post pics of a red
Jeep with blue tires, green wheels, yellow rollbar pads, and a poodle on the
hood" threads. Who wants to try to control that?
Even if we had the option to just receive emails from the BB, we'd still get
all the crap threads, just in email form instead.

Good deal Bill. I'm afraid to weigh the Camo Cow! Probably weighs
about twice what yours does.

Subject: Re: Burnin money on the jeep
I have had both the 4.5 and the 5.5... The 5.5" lift is MUCH MUCH MUCH
better riding on the steet. Id go for the 4.5" coils from RE, and the long
arm kit... If you look around, you can probably get a great price... I
picked mine up from Arizona Trailwerks... www.aztrailwerks.com Ask to
speak with Brian, and tell him your an AZVJC member... He works GREAT deals,
and will install it at a good cost as well, should you decide to have him do
it. If you cant afford that bit, go with the 4.5" kit by RE... In my
oppinion, it is far superior to any of the other lifts out there, and is
designed well for the rough 4 wheeling this area provides us with, as well
as being roadworthy. The only thing I noticed, is that you HAVE to keep
your bushings lubed up, to ensure the longevity, of the lift, and the smooth
ride.
Hope this helps...
