I had trouble on this thing as well when I was reading stories on the Honda Beat website. This website wouldn't load for a bit yesterday.

Automobile ownership represents many things to many people. To me, living in Edmonton Alberta's harsh climate, a singleautomobile is pure and simple transportation only. Over time I want to spend as absolutely little money as possible for it, and that means DIY until I'm so old I can't, andthat in turnmeans havinga service manual plus a good internet forum for support.

(For everything else one can obtain from rolling on wheels, we jump on our motorcycle in the summer.)

Just from a purely practical perspective, for people who have written extensively on a particular web site,that represents a considerableinvestment in time and energy.

Although I believe that it is not wise to "put all your eggs in one basket", in the case of an internet forum, if no one makes the investment, there will not be much available from it. I think this is what distinguishes the HAF from some others.

Don't get me wrong - there are some other great forums, but there as well, it is preciselybecause people devote time and energy to post to them that they are what they are.

Yes, we all have knowledge thatwill not disappear if a web site disappears, but it would really be too damnedbad if the fruit of one's labor - something that took perhaps hours to write - disappeared in an instant. Hopefullyif the HAF was in a position of having to shut down for some reason, the members could be given some notice of thatin order to at least archivesome of their own contributions to it.

Actually, I use to belong to driveaccord. It was an alright forum until I got edited for saying** You have Just been Edited Here also, so Please Keep it Clean**with a comment about keeping it clean. In another thread the f bomb and s word was dropped several times and nobody got edited. Just kinda rubbed me the wrong way so I stopped posting there and checking the site. HAF ftw for sure.
