Re: put your build thread in your signature

Is everyone not allowed to have a signature? When I click on edit signature I get a message that I am not permitted to have a signature. I obviously have one, but I guess I am not allowed to edit it?

Re: put your build thread in your signature

You should be able to easily as a Premium member. My slower than molasses in Fairbanks in January internet is a deal killer with being able to do some things as the page times out before it gets finished.

The Photobucket thing is bad for a lot of us and has knocked out hundreds of photos I posted here and on the Hamb with info to answer questions. I think some guys may have figured out how to find my main Mr48chev Photobucket album an search out the info though.
Still haven't got a build thread going but guess I could do a "hey look at all the parts I have collected for it" thread but that would be a bit lame. i seem to have become a major investor in finned aluminum lately.

I agree, I should be able to, but it does not allow me to. I PM'd Liz twice but got no response. Not sure what else I can do...

there is a character limit for signatures, you might be over the limit with all your detail.

Re: put your build thread in your signature

This thread should be a reread every once in a while for all of us and a must read for new folks.

The same group of us end up answering most questions. We each tend to have our particular area of expertiese or interest and clear and concise questions with info on what you are working on as a reminder or your listing of your GM trucks or links to your build threads helps. Putting what truck you are working on and what parts or engine or trans you are asking about in the first paragraph lets us know what rig we should be thinking about. That gets Joedoe's attention if it is an S-10 swap question, a couple of others if it is an LS question, a few others if you are doing a traditional build. Although I have 50 years of owning AD trucks and years as a mechanic in various shops plus 13 years of teaching auto mechanics, a lot of the time my real skill is researching sources to find the correct answer. That and a fair part of the time I grab the camera and run (well lets say walk) out to take a photo to help explain something.

Well presented and complete questions get better answers faster.

Clear and quality photos of what you are asking about get better answers when we need to see what you are asking about rather than visualize.

Last and maybe most important. START A NEW THREAD and don't dig up a several year old thread and tack your question on the back of it even if the thread is about a similar item. People will answer the first question in that 10 year old thread and some don't take the time to scroll though the thread to the last comment or question. We would rather see a new fresh thread with your specific question that you started and that ends up with the correct answer and then drifts off into cyber space than sort though pages of comments to find your question tacked on the back of a thread that is maybe ten years dead. That happens a lot more on the HAMB than here as google often brings up a Hamb thread in a search. Still it is often how new folks find this group if one of us didn't invite them from somewhere else.

Re: put your build thread in your signature

mr48chev

I agree with you this should be Re-Read on occasion.

If you are Just on the internet

Chopping for the solution for your knee jerk reaction/solution.

This is not your Forum.

This is a Family based Forum.

This forum does have Stepchildren like most forums do

I Strive to Not be That person.

If you ask a Question about a Engine for Example

There are 2 People that will respond.

They will have Totally different opinions

They are just trying to help in their own different way.

That is just one Example

I have made a lot of Internet friends here.

I hope this can help everyone with sharing Knowledge
