I just went and registered at the image gallery. I filled out the page and followed all the directions. IT DIDN'T WORK. I hit the lost password button and it sent me a new one with my user name. That one don't work either.
Now what?
Have a nice day :D

Not to mention, it kinda blows that you all are censoring your members on the boards. Weak-sauce.

I am censoring a few peoples posts because they are being stupid and I have not had to do that for a long time now, and a few posts I have had to censor because of legal stuff. If you want to post porn go talk to procharger502 he can hook you up. As far as the legal stuff not much I can say. That is life.

Have a nice day :D I cant tell you. That is not enough information for me to trouble shoot.
1. What browser are you using
2. What is your user name
3. Did you click on the link that activates your account in the initial reg email?
4. Are you getting any error message of some sort that you can copy and paste here?
5. Check step three again.

Did I say you were censoring everyone's posts? Did I say anything about Porn?
Why take it to the lowest common denominator? what's the point there?
As far as the legal stuff, I don't expect you to "do" anything, but you have to expect your members to vent.
Not to bite what you so eloquently stated...."That's Life."
:D
And while I'm venting...where is my Avatar? wink

I beleive they had complaints, when I stopped by the booth at the show they were real cool and asked about some of these things. Both the guys told me they needed to clean things up to a family forum. Sounds like pressure from above wink

I'd say it is time to stop blaming HB for the decisions of others. Right now he is probably major wiped from putting out fires with the new changes and then to hear a bunch of complaints about not being able to use cuss words. Get a grip. I say it is time to give the man a round of cheer and a hearty pat on the back. :)

Lighten up on mr ***boat.... I'm sure he doesn't make all the rules I agree we are going in the wrong direction here. devil
Lets get back to why most of us are on these boards.
The 3B's Boats, :D Babes, :D & beer. :D
I like to hear the positive stories on someone's new ride, how it handles, what motor they have, and any problems they may have had etc. wink
I like guy's that give great info. Foggy's battery system and the work he did for Tobek come to mind. :D
The info on the up coming events like OP6V, Regatta's, Parker/Havasu who's going,
Listening to all of the Mrs. boaters talk smack.
Enough with the bitching an moaning and all of that other shit that comes with PMS. :rolleyes:

Hey Riodog,

I wasn't defending anyone, wink
I was commenting on the things I personally like to read about, and basically saying,
"Why can't we just all get along". argue
To many pot stirrers in the kitchen. argue
Stop cookin and start smokin, wink

I have a subscription to your magazine, Rod24 has a subscription, Rod24Jr has a subscription ....., syke-o has a subscription. "If you want to post porn go talk to procharger502" That sounds like a direct attack when all he was saying is forums are a place to discuss things. Not a single mention of porn nor has he ever posted porn on the boards, If you like to prove me wrong find one thread. The board helps everyone in the long run. Including your company by selling these mags and collecting advertiser money. Keep in mind what makes this such a great place is the freedom to post your advice, OPINIONS and experience with/from/to companies and products wether it is good or bad.
Lose the attitude!!!!!!
Hope this does not get censored frown

I don't think he directed "stupid " at one person, playtime you are kind of new here do you know all of the stuff that has been said or posted by people on these boards, no you don't and in my opinion some of it has to go to keep the site alive.

I agree Schiada96, I believe he was referring to something that someone was putting up, not a personal attack, I think we all might post something "stupid" at one time or another.
Paytime, while you and others might subscribe to the magazine most of the money comes from the advertisers. That is just a fact of the mag biz.Althought they need the circulation to sell the adds that is where the real money comes from. This board is FREE and is run by a company that wishes to keep the content within a certain frame of substance, that's up to them not us.Not baggin on ya, just saying it is a public forum and it is free to us, there putting out the cash to support the board so I believe they can direct it the way they see fit.

Hope this does not get censored :( You misunderstood what I was trying to say. Might have been because I got the name wrong it is 502procharger and I am sorry about that. If you are going to hang out in these forums your skin is going to need to be a little thicker. I was not in any way calling 502procharger or you stupid. There have been a few cases in the past of people being stupid on these forums and posting stuff that they know they should not. Many times it is not stupidity but just people being assholes. That is fine and they have every right to be, but I have every right to delete their posts.
On a completely different subject within the last month their has been a rash of legal problems. Some site tried to charge us$50 a page view because someone had linked their avatar through to another site and the bandwidth was crushing them. Many companies have been complaining about being abused on the boards. I have asked for clarification on this and here is how it is shaping up.
You can complain about it one time in one forum. Not a new thread once a day, or a new thread once a week and not in multiple forums.
Hot Boat does care about its subscribers, and I think the best way to keep subscriptions high will be to edit these boards as little as possible. If people stop posting things that need editing then that would be very easy.
On a final note I a have no problem with what 502Procharger is trying to do.

I am behind ***boat on this one. They have a great site, great boards, ECT. The reason I built the new hotboatpics.com site was to have a place to post all the stuff that is inappropriate for a major player like ***boat to have on there site. There are people on this board that find stuff posted offensive. To each there own. I am not trying to take people away from this site; it is the best site out here. It has the best people as well as the best info. I am just filling the gap between what is ok to post and what people are going to bitch about. Understand ***boat has a lot to loose if someone sues them and I understand how they do not want to be a part of some of it. The site I just put up is for the adult stuff that is not ok to post on this site. It is also to be used to voice your opinion about what or who ever you want without me having to worry about a boat company coming and bitching to me about a post on my site. ***boat.net does us all a great service. I have met many great people because of the site and will continue to use it on a daily basis. If there are pictures or topics that you feel will not go over well on this site or in this picture forum please feel free to post them on my site, www.hotboatpics.com (http://www.hotboatpics.com) Again Thanks ***boat for providing us with this great site.

Charley,Seadog, Hdd, Jbr, Man, before you start trying to play "Defender of the Man", READ THE POST ! Do you get it yet? Read FIRST and then run at the mouth! My only comment was lighten up....I'm sure he has a boss to answer too....a boss that probably listens to his lawyer because that same boss likes his bottom line nice and fat and not drained from lawsuits....now listen hear Mr rio-dog, maybe it's time you review yer own post and look at the condescending attitude that seems to cloud your point, I need to do my homework? LMAO Gimme a break, I made a one sentence post and it was "LIGHT" in nature....I don't need to waste any time researching or homeworking shit to justify what I WROTE....PERIOD......

What kinda power you have , suppose to run well with the 496 from what I hear. \I will be honest, I opted for mild power. went with the 6.2 (Replacement for the 454) for a couple of reasons.
1. my wife will take the boat out and I really dont want to subject her to more danger than necessary, she is a WOT person!!!!!
2. This really is my family boat, i have 2 kids, 8 and 9
3. money as well. this was the first small block he ever put in this style of boat. So when it was done, Cliff and Anthony took it out and said they were impressed with that motor, did as well or better than the stock 454 did! It runs 63 to 65 depending on water and elevation... I am happy with it. Also the small block gave me WAY mor interior space.
Procharger is next deal though... I would like it to see upper 70's. Procharger says no problem even with only 5 psi boost.. Thanks for the inquiry.

I am seeing a lot of sites that are bleeping the minor cuss words, not just HB. While part of me rails at this, I also realize that intelligent people should learn to communicate without cussing.
Today I have a reason for a few choice words. Yesterday my neice got married and I was sound/light manager. Wasted, I chose to stay the night. This morning, I headed out, only to get caught in a snow storm. I was on the Will Rogers and somebody wanting to go faster got behind me. I tried to move over at a rousing 35 mph , got loose, got tapped and did a NASCAR into the divider.. Now I have two bent bumpers, broken turn signal,bent valance and slightly buckled hood. And I didn't even have a scatch on my poor baby before this. burningm At least I got back to see Jarrett win.
