looks like I came to the right place

 

sorry guys, some how I was banned from this forum, hope its not because of this thread, is any one still interested?

 

If you were banned for making this thread the thread would be gone too.... so try again.

Maybe there was an IP ban on someone else that went sour? Either way it is something that an admin will have to look into. Next time, instead of making accusations about getting banned (unless you can think of a reason why you would have) maybe you should just ask someone what's goin on.

 

Followup - Looks like you got banned for posting Tag Heuer watches for sale with a post count of nothing. (I'm just guessing, I don't have log access.)

Apparently your legendary status over on the 7club doesn't pull any weight over here in 8-land. I'll ask the admins what's up and see what happens.

 

It's all about Burt!!!

 

well it says banned under my name, and I have been posting on this for almost a year for what ever reason it says 0 posts

 

Site admins disabled posts in this (and other various sections of the site) because they felt there was a subversive amount of post-whoring going on, this was done before I was really even around.

 

oh well, always thought watches and cars went well together, like rednecks and NASCAR

 

Apologies, it was me who banned Hollywood7 for the watch post - when a forum member with 0 posts show up peddling crap, we call it spam, delete the thread, and ban the spammers! I've unbanned the Hollywood7 account, but banned his two "buddies" - once again, rules.

Speaking of rules - we allow RX-8 for sales and wanted posts ONLY in the RX-8 for sale/wanted forum section; and RX-8 Accessories for sale/wanted posts ONLY in the RX-8 Accessories for sale/wanted section. No other non-RX-8 item for sales, wanted, etc. posts are permitted anywhere. Unless it's a Sennheiser RX-8 watch, watch selling isn't permitted!

Regards,
Gordon

 

I'm still in on the run, if anyone wants to get something together, let me know.

 

well its good to be un-banned, think I will stick around to the gulf section from now on

 

Hey, as long as someone wants to be in the lead other than me, I will cannonball anywhere.

As far as cops are concerned,

1. 59 south seems to be cop free except Saturday and especially Sunday mourning.
2. 45 North is fairly cop free except right at the beltway.
3. 45 South like Rotary mentioned is cop city.
4. 10 West is cop free but you are bumper-to-bumper 24-7 on that freeway.
5. Beltway would be a horrible choice unless EVERYONE had EZ-tag
6. 610 loop would probably be a better choice except for the West side of town where the Galleria would be backed up and Bellaire section should handled with extreme caution (Bellaire Cops show for court 100%).
7. Hardy Tollroad has the EZ-tag problem AND is loaded with mentally retarded Harris County Constables. (Yes, they are retarded. They have to fail an IQ test for the job.)
8. 290 North is known to be fairly cop-free but I have no personal experience.
9. I know nothing about 59 North or I-10 East.

My choices would #2 (north of the Beltway), #6 and maybe #8.

45 S to Galveston does have a few cops, but not too bad. At least this time of year. I wouldn't mind going even farther, like a trip to San Antonio. But maybe that is out of the picture. Anyway, I'm in regardless. Let's get some more people involved, if possible.

 

well we were thinking in may or september haveing a "texas cannonball" start in San Antonio --> Houston --> Dallas --> Austin, with a drive each day, and a party in a different city each night. its mainly the guys from the dallas cannonball that want to do this, still trying to get a website up, so I can really kick this into gear

 

The Texas triangle idea sounds pretty cool.

 

Why can't they start in Houston? Oh well, it still sounds like a lot of fun. Count me in. Maybe the website will help get things started.

 

well if we start in houston, then we cant party in houston. I am guessing that some people will not make it for the San Antonio-->houston part of the run, because it will be on a friday, its likely that we pick up people in houston and Dallas.

but te texas cannonball is still way off, I wana get this houston cannonball going

 

I'm still up for helping with the website, hit me up if you need anything. Don't forget the Yahoo group/MSN group option either, that might get you started at least until you can get a formal web presence.

 

can you do a formal web page for me?

 

check out my page at www.texasrxs.org, I can set you up something pretty similar in next to no time, it runs on a cms system called xoops, you can also check out other xoops sites at www.xoops.org. I can also do plain jane html type stuff as well, but I like xoops since it lets me have a forum,photo gallery, events calendar, etc etc. plus it's all database driven so I can control access/permissions to any single part of it. You'll need a host and a domain name, if any of this is greek let me know, I'll try and explain it better for you.

 

looks good, PM sent
