Holy "cut and paste" from the other forum Batman! At least give credit where credit is due...... Digital Corvettes is where the info came from. Yep, "the other forum" is that one with the blue background that has all the newest information on the C7 (and until this ripoff, the exclusive on it if I recall). It's nice to see people looking at the info on there, but at least put up a link, or a credit for your findings or something......Dang........

That's a pretty crappy thing to do. If you read something in a book and posted it word for word with out giving credit it would be the same thing. What's your member name over there so we can get you banned?

Little people that don't give credit where credit is due are probably the same ones that would park in handicap spaces without a handicap sticker.

It's a lack of integrity, that's what.

906 views and not one moderator is around to add some real business ethics to JKennedy1612's original post?

Anyone? Bueller? .... Bueller?

Again, I am not taking credit as I originally indicated the material was found from another source. I have adjusted it now to credit digitalcorvette.com. Not trying to start a war here...just trying to spread the word of mouth.

Actually most of the 'meat' of that stuff (and more) was posted here long ago by Maj Z06 but someone asked that it be taken down.

You're a sad little group of people. Digitalcorvettes.com has been the leader in info for Vettes and All I see here is extreme jealousy.

What????????

I belong to both forums, enjoy both, and don't prefer one over the other. FYI, 7 people commented that the original poster should have given credit to DC, 4 people took the opportunity to spout something negative about DC, and the rest appreciated the information, regardless of where it came from.

What is this childish competition that some people feel exists between the corvette forums? I go to CF so therefore I hate DC, or vice versa. What a bunch of immature crap. Aren't we all here to talk about corvettes? Sadly, I guess not.

Yeah, DigitalCorvettes, the site that slapped their URL all over GM photos and plastered them in several threads over here. And now some of you are bitching about someone posting information here, AND including a link back to DC? Some of you seriously need to un-bunch your panties.

Are you serious? You mean Mr. "I'm Cool and Rad and everyone else is a dork" actually threatened you? Why am I not surprised.
