There is nothing wrong with profiting but the sponsors area is made for that. No spam thank you mam.

Guys like Scott, Mac, Bernzy, Don, and Ryan obviously love plugs. If you love plugs and are willing to help others, you should feel welcome here.

And in between these two is the balance that we want to find regarding "commercial" builders

Working on that - but you guys would need to collect your photos in one place

Sportyguy - I don't know you and I'm not sure how on the level you are. What I do know is that there is a swarm of, well, uncertainty around your status here, and some of that is based on your, uhh, history on the "other" site. What I don't want to see is you using these boards to spam for personal gain. What I think some of the member builders that have been here for a while may feel is that you are trying to shortcut much of the builders learning curve. You haven't been building plugs that long, right?

Someone want to PM me the Sportsters link?

Thanks....
