View Full Version : "PPC" veterans question
FYI:
The "PPC" was the OLD Prowler site/Club before the POA came into existence.
It came to an end when the owner at the time excessively edited and deleted posts
on the forum and the POA formed with Mr. Krehel apparently vowing he would NEVER go this route and repeat those practices.
So HERE's my question to all you "PPC veterans" like Ray, BlackCat, DavidN, BeWare, YellerKat, Larry Lord and others I can't think of right now:
HOW COME some of you still support the way the POA is run, even though Mr. Krehel has become FAR WORSE than the old PPC guy ever was by not only editing, deleting member's posts but banning people left and right without ANY or little explanations simply because they dare to have a mind of their own and/or question certain practices ?
HOW COME you turned on the PPC at the time but yet continue to keep quiet about the ongoings on the POA ?
ISN'T a "Prowler Owner's Association" supposed to be the "Prowler Owner's" and not just 1 person ?
If some of you don't want to respond in fear of getting banned (as well) I'll understand, but this had me curious for a while now and since THOSE kinda questions, 'questioning' the mighty Krehel are a BIG no-no on the POA :nono: , well THIS is the place to ask them !
Please feel free to correct me if some of the a/m "PPC/POA" history is inaccurate since I ONLY could read up on it ;-)

Monsignor LePew, Without getting into a big, long, drawnout discussion, here is my feelings on it.
Do I like some of the things going on, and the direction the POA has apparently taken, No. Can I change it, No. Can I "switch channels", sure.
But, I have friends on both sites, and some don't come here and some CANT go there. So, I visit both. Do I have time to get caught up in all the politics, absolutely not. Barely have time to look at the 2 sites and other buisness.
Bottom line for me, this is Davids site, and David sets the tone. POA is Mikes site, and Mike sets the tone. Wether or not I like what happens on either site is out of my control, and I realize that.
I don't care that anyone at this site thinks I am wrong to go over there, and I don't care if anyone there thinks I am wrong for coming over here.
I just want to enjoy the cars and tremendous friendships I have developed since signing up (and never getting all I paid for) at the original PPC, and the POA and Prowltalk. Politics....not for me.
Long winded, maybe doesn't make a lot of sense, but started today at 3 am and to tired to care. Just my take on it.

Jim,
THANKS for taking the time and responding and for ME it IS interesting to see YOUR point of views !
As far as 'GOING' over there that was not my point, until recently I was 'GOING' over there as well since I STILL (and as well) got friends over there that won't come to PT, however THAT door was closed by the 'almighty' himself .
Thanks Larry for your PM as well ;-)

I am new member here and a long time member over there. When I want usefull Prowler information I go over there. When I want to laugh at people whining all day long about the other site I come here.
Come on guys. Every day there is a new post here complaining about or insulting the other site. Just get over it already. Sheesh.
usefull info?? such as ?? where cj is going this week?> :rll::rll: or 9-11 was done by CIA? Or how hairy is A/c? is that what you mean... who are you anyway??
where do live?? Houston??

"meow"... the other four letter word...8-)
really, it doesn't matter if you like the posts or not, but they are there for you to read or not to read....simple concept,
We are not the POA, don't pretend to be them, don't conduct business here like them...
so what it is, is what it is....
enjoy it or not, its your choice...I think that pretty damn fair....
MOO ( my opinion only )

I was going to list all the stuff that went on with PPC but i looks like no body really cares these days ...so i will skip it... if you like to hang around a site that is build on lies then by all means support Mike and GARY AT poa...
Meow please don't be shy... come out and tell who you are? if you are a long time member then we are no strangers...... you don't have be a troll....

In my view the PPC problem was less about editing posts than is was about business ethics (long story). We actually had a committee they would monitor posts just like this site. The difference is that if there were complaints from other members we had the ability to contact the individual and or remove the post like most sites. As far as what's going on with the POA as was said earilier............. I don't control it so therefore I don't spend a whole lot of time getting worked up about it. I read both sites and get something out of both.

ditto. seems to be a fair amount of anger/pain of both sides. this site seems to be growing by leaps and bounds and using that positive energy to focus on going forward seems to me the best way to take the high road. Ultimatley, sucess of this site will serve as the best outcome. Kudos to david and the others who have made this communtiy what it is today. Stick to making this the best outlet for prowler owners and guests, and the rest will take care of itself. i certainly dont want to minimize what has apparantly happened in the past, but simply think you have something good going here and would like for it to be kept positive.

I can see why some think it is a waste... thats their take on it and their opinion....I have no problem at all with that.
It still doesn't mean we all have to think that way, and I suggest that the issues are more important to some than it is for others. To suggest that a dozen of us are wasting our time fighting for something we believe in ....
Well, think of it this way....
If we were defending you , then you may not think it was such a waste...

Gotta be kidding me Ed :roll:
That's the 'procedure' I'm afraid .......... guess they'll NEVER learn !
It's REALLY hard to NOT say something NEGATIVE right now since I'm
trying hard to stay positive ......... but maybe slowly but surely you

Welcome to the club !
I just don't understand why the POA admin keeps banning people left and right for no apparent reason.
I guess stating an opinion is against the rules, even if it contains no negativity and is posted on another website.

Ed,
They wanted you to email then and that how the king gets his rocks...Also they are so paranoid thinking you where not REAL and that why they wanted more info from you...
since that's how they run things and they have soooo many fake users they thinks that how the rest of the world operates...
you came out and said good things about PT so they thought for sure you must be a FAKE user....

Monsignor LePew, Without getting into a big, long, drawnout discussion, here is my feelings on it.
Do I like some of the things going on, and the direction the POA has apparently taken, No. Can I change it, No. Can I "switch channels", sure.
But, I have friends on both sites, and some don't come here and some CANT go there. So, I visit both. Do I have time to get caught up in all the politics, absolutely not. Barely have time to look at the 2 sites and other buisness.
Bottom line for me, this is Davids site, and David sets the tone. POA is Mikes site, and Mike sets the tone. Wether or not I like what happens on either site is out of my control, and I realize that.
I don't care that anyone at this site thinks I am wrong to go over there, and I don't care if anyone there thinks I am wrong for coming over here.
I just want to enjoy the cars and tremendous friendships I have developed since signing up (and never getting all I paid for) at the original PPC, and the POA and Prowltalk. Politics....not for me.
Long winded, maybe doesn't make a lot of sense, but started today at 3 am and to tired to care. Just my take on it.
...Jim, you must have read my mind when you typed out your answer, except I did get my stuff from the PPC (apparently one of the very few who did)...
...the PPC taught me several things about Kats and I made some friends, the POA taught me more about Kats than I needed to know and also introduced me to lots of people who shared my passion for automobiles...remember, I didn't really like or want a Kat when they were introduced, even when I bought my first one I wasn't quite sure if I would keep it or not, I was a Viper guy already...but here was a group of several hundred people that had Kats too...I went to some Prowler events and it kinda changed my entire way of life so to speak...I have been helped by numerous people on all 3 sites and have nothing but good memories of everyone...Bob Longstreth (RPL) was instrumental in my getting a new black Viper SRT10 in 2003, or I would still be waiting in line ....the Prowler clubs/people have all been a positive experience for me, and I hope to return the favor
thru the years I have posted as...
BLACK 99
SILVER BULLET
BLACK 2000
Y2K YELO
Y2K YELO X 2
Y2K YELO X 4 (2-2000 Yelo Kats and 2 Yelo C5 Vette convs.)...I have a picture somewhere of all 4 Yelo cars in my 4 car garage...they look like a giant bug light
then I ordered a new Mulholland Kat and changed to "tangled up in BLUE"....sold the Kat and kept the name although somewhat modified here to suit my Tangelo Kat
