John, Say what you will but none of this took place until after Mr. Shortt started reviling people. Maybe you should get more facts before backing someone up.Forest

Thank you Nathan!
Oh My God.
What is wrong with you people?
I didn't realize that this list was about as non Pantera related as it
gets. I just joined this Pantera club with my original GTS; yes there
is a GT in the VIN, and get subjected to this rhetoric?
This has got to be the biggest form of online bullying, and Man-Child
like behavior that I have ever witnessed in my life, from all sides! No
matter what Mr. Shortt has done in the past, you people who disparage
him make you all no better. I was emailed some of his posts from 9
years ago; yes vulgar, and insulting, to say the least; I do not agree,
but how pathetic that you have to dig up emails on someone from that
long ago to prove your point. I have been sent personal emails from
people outlining their grievances, and giving me reasons why I should
defect from the club that I just joined? I was notified that some of
the chapters are planning to secede from the national club, and that it
is the chapter presidents arranging the little coup d'etat. Then this
email here slamming a person who just volunteered to be a new editor
and letting us know of the shady practice by the previous editors; I
now wonder myself if they were on the printers payroll. At least they
are gone. No wonder you have these issues, anyone would be abrasive and
discontent after getting bullied in this manner. Likewise, Mr Shortt
should not be unprofessional and abusive as the representative of a
national organization. That is just not acceptable.
Curious? Do you all spend every waking hour behind the keyboard of your
computers and devise ways to "get back" at someone? Do you sit there
and write things about someone from the safety of your home, make
accusations, and point fingers because it makes you feel like a man? It
is not what men do. There is a list of possible mental disorders that
can be the only explanation.
Shame on you, and Go Nancy, an absolute peach.
Who is destroying the Pantera club? Look within yourselves, and point
your fingers inwards. All of you on both sides!
Now yes as Nathan so gracelessly stated can we please get back to the
cars?
Thank you for ruining my first club experience.
John
