I come here several times a day. Asyou can see by my post count I don't do much. I rear and learn lots. There is a very great deal of knowledge on this board. I was on porschephiles back in 1994. I died out. I lost my SC to Katrina , and did nothing with Porsches until 2011. I purchased an 88' and have been here ever since. I like the group and look forward to learning more.
Thanks everyone.

Yes it certainly is.

Approaching two decades of being on a single website.
O-M-G

Bin here since 2000.

Prior to that I was on the PCA Potomac group/forum. I don't know why there as I live quite some distance away, but hey, the internet is like that.

I enjoy you guy's (internet) company, so thanks.

No, but when one rolls up it gets respect. Hell, even my 944 has been getting lots of looks lately!

^^^ ++++

I'm still here after 20+ years (yes, I was on the old pelican forum for a bit before they switched over to this new format and we all had to get new usernames/logons, etc, hence the oldest member being in 2000) I still try to log on everyday and started in the tech forum, (the OT forum wasn't around back then) but I only go there 1-2 times every other week or so now.

And more importantly, I still have a Porsche. I think I'm on #14 now..! Longest I've gone without one in the last 25 years was just a few weeks in between the selling of one and the buying of the next one.

Lurked a few years and joined in 2004 to get advise about a pesky problem with my 73.5. Received good counseling and been here ever since........

Dating can take time!:)

I'm still pissed off at Sid....damn "kid" shows up and poof...ALL of the single single wimmins disappear ;)

Joined when I bought my 912E in 2001 and have been mostly a lurker and a rare poster. The forum has given me so much information both on the 912 and on my ‘79 SC that I sold in 2006. Now I check this forum frequently for posts that seem to have interesting content.

I've been here a little over 7 years since I bought my first original 83 Porsche 944. I drove that car everywhere, but eventually the car succumbed to a drunk driver running a stop sign into the side of me. We were both doing 60 mph, and the car protected my life, but still broke 17 bones.

I bought my current 944 while still in a wheelchair, and was the first 5 speed I had driven with the new pieced together hip. It is for sale now, but I still plan on being apart of this community without actually owning one.

Wondering about him
happy to see
made my day
Rika!

I post less frequently but check in a dozen times a day or so.

<bong> Bring out your dead.



I'm not dead yet.

A couple of years back I finally perfected my ninja roll while holding my katana, so I had no reason to drop by. Gotten a little rusty and decided I missed some of you poo poo heads a decided to stop by more.

So you learned not to cut your sack, while wearing a coboy hat, and using the free geraror right?

Been around a while too. More reading than posting. Learned a lot. Feel like I know each of you guys.

Yes, a water cooled enthusiast site is really needed. RL is not even close, unless you want 101 variations on the "will this tire fit my car?" theme. But it is all we have right now, so I won't break bad on it.

If you want to have a site for the future of Porsche you may be looking at all electric SUVs and pickup trucks. :(

^^ That's more like it.. lol..

That scenario probably fits about 98% of us. Lurked for a year or so then finally joined in 2003 when needing some advice. Don't post much compared to many others but still on here reading several times a day. Will probably continue to hang around until the site folds or I fold... whichever occurs first.

Found this site in 1999 when I lived in Big Spring Tx. That's about 90 minutes from where Early_S_man lived. Then moved to Az in late 1999.
Wish I had a clue about him at the time. I'd have made the drive to meet him. No question.
His Tech approach is what gave me the confidence to buy my '72 with bad MFI. Got it running pretty well....then I swapped in a 3.2.

Not 100% sure he cared for my decision very much.

I lurked a couple years before joining bc I was careful about my online presence. :rolleyes:

I would NOT have a 911 were it not for Pelcan's awesome tech community....

Is yer name Earl ;)?

This forum has been invaluable to me in so many ways. Pick a subject and somebody here is knowledgeable about it. So many members have advised me on purchases and given how-to advice on a variety of subjects that I could not have gotten elsewhere. I try to contribute when I can, and hope I’ve added to the value others get from PPOT.

Tweeze didn’t disappear, she’s just not single anymore. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I didn't realize Tweeze was still here since I quit stalking her online....or mebbe she's over in PARF :)

Yer still a dawg though....DAWG!

I'm a bit slow this morning....and don't know (see) what's at the end of this post (phone)....but hi Tweeze.....I get it now :)

I am more of a lurker these days. I still check in, but have been very busy work wise. Also, I kind of got a bad taste in my mouth after my 3.2 motor build thread. The venom was strong!

I'm getting better!

Dan, I suspect there are more like you who have backed off on the forum because of people spewing venom. I guess you just have to reconcile with the fact there are keyboard jockeys who do that. I remember I got a treatment years ago from a member for seemingly no basis. Tobra came in and made a just comment on my behalf. I've done that once or twice over the years too on behalf of the forum or another person. Mostly you just have to ignore people like that.

YupSmileWavy

But can you MONKEY roll?

Oh yeah...I'm still here for a cabinet position....KEG party 2020 :)

Glad to see you're still here and think of you often, Dan! SmileWavy

I was looking to buy an MG around 1999. One of the guys in my ski club suggested a 914 instead. Some one suggested Pelican for Porsche Parts and I joined the forums in the summer of 2000. It saved me from Automobile Atlanta!

No you're not, you'll be stone dead in a moment.

You're not fooling anyone, you know.

I think I’ll go for a walk!
