PPBB filled a void with a certain demographic... It was certainly my least favorite forum, really because of the "vendor hating" that was so widespread.. Those people seem to forget continually that without vendors their cars would be piles of junk. There it didn't matter if you were someone who sold bumper plugs or engines, some wise ass had something negative to say about what a company sold, how they sold it or how it cost too much... Never seen anything like it. Amazing.

When they kicked off a client of mine just because he posted that he visited my shop and was blown away, I was done with that crowd..

I'd bet PPBB will be back, someone will take it over or time will heal the wounds, it happened before a couple of years ago. If not that group will start a spin-off and it'll probably be full of vendor haters too.

Sorry for the stereotyping guys, lots of good people frequented PPBB.
