I go to many forums every day.  Some I post in alot, some I post in a little, some I don't post at all but just lurk.  Which one is your favorite and why?

I chose Havasu Doug because it is a friendly boating atmosphere and I've found that everyone try's to help everyone without harrassment and everyone seems to treat everyone with respect.  Furthermore, I have never seen anyone on this forum talking $hit about someones boat unless joking.

HD's place is great I like to call it home but I enjoy the pure volume of info available on HotBoat, I have never really participated in the drama.  I also like OSO they have a east coat influence I enjoy and I'm a closet offshore wanabe.

Hmmmm....... :rolleyes This is a no-brainer for me.  This board is my favorite for 2 reasons.

Firstly, it is set up just the way I like it. (How did that happen? :stupid  :rotflmao )

Secondly and more importantly, I like the group of peeps and the style in which they post here.  Peeps seem to post less dramatically here with little or no quarreling. :D

Agreed! :jumpie  :jumpie

You know, I have been noticing that there are an awful lot of Pisces on this forum.  Maybe that's why this forum is so great :D  :laugh

Well, HavasuDoug's of course.  :D  No drama, good peeps.

But I bounce all over all day long (or used to anyway :D ), KH's new place has a lot of potential, Hot Boat for a good argument, RRL for the T-Shirts, and then all the others.

I post on a lot of the boards and Doug’s was not the first board I joined but it is the one I always come back to. I like the little group of people here. We all make a conscious effort not to start any drama and get along (something not seen on any other board except maybe KH’s) If I had to choose one this would be the one.

As a matter of fact this summer will be my 30th birthday and Lindsey and I were talking about having a get together for it at the lake and inviting members of the boards. I thought that it would be fun but one of my stipulations was that it was just the members of Doug’s.  So I guess that shows how I feel about this place.  :good

So your going to invite RD too? j/k  :D Better start working on those plans there Brad. I know I have all my river dates set up until October, even then I still pretty much know what dates I'll be going out. Thats if we are invited. lol  :D

Dougs site my #1 choice if you cant tell from my post count.
KH's new site is good for some quality post whoring & all around fun.
RRL too me is a mix of all the boards.
Barneys is good to check out some good T&A
OP6 is cool to keep up with the op6 crew
Hot Boat is good for drama and more drama
Kwicherbichen I like the site set up, but I just dont post on it.

Those are the only sites I lurk & post on in order.  ;)




Everyone is welcome.... No one is safe.

River Who?  :D


We are trying to figure out where we are going to have it. I prefer to go to San Antonio. But I know that all of this crew prefers the river. So I have to decide if I want to go where I want or if I want to hang out with you guys.  :stupid

Oh…..Monique is invited but you can’t come!  :bebe  :D

A San Antonio trip sounds good to me! :good  I had a great time last year. :D  Even though a small group posts here on a regular basis, the key peeps on most of the other boards are registered here too.  That could end up being a pretty big trip! :good

Same here. :D I think of all of us from here, RRL, OP6C, HB's, LVHB, KB's, etc as HOT BOATERS! :good  It's like always belonging to your high school.  Peeps come and go, but you're always a part of it. :D
