I don't want to sound like a bitch, but....

I joined the HTM owners group on Facebook because I was browsing the group and someone on there was asking if anyone had a Hot Boat magazine from 2005 featuring their boat and the only way to comment was to join. I had the magazine. I got the guy's info and promptly sent him the mag....then I was kicked out of the group.:headscratch: My only comment in the group was "hey I have the magazine PM me your info".

Even though they kicked me out I was browsing it again and someone posted a pic of an old HTM poster. Everyone was posting how they wanted it. I joined again to post because I had one of the posters and was willing to give it to a good home. So I joined and posted that I had one. Someone contacted me and I promptly sent it out to them.

I went back to check the thread in the HTM group to see if the guy got it and I was blocked from the group completely.:yikes:headscratch: WTF? the only two post I had and I was giving and sending shit out for free and I get blocked? By the way, still not sure I even got a thank you from either one.

I'm out a magazine, poster and $25 shipping...lesson learned.

HTM owners group sux.

That sucks, regardless of how somebody might feel about you in that group that's just flat-out rude.

Which screen name did you use?

Are you saying the HTM group wants to roll without you?

Sounds like your legend preceded you Grads.

SDARG is not hard to figure out j/k

Maybe you are the only one with old Hot Boat mags and someone deduced it was you.

It was a nice gesture anyway.

Screw them... Buy a Howard. We will welcome you.

Shot in the dark. I wanna say it was an HTM cover boat. And I wrote an article (age 12) to outboard tech about going faster in a Hallett vector. Article would be 2002 I think. Writers name is Loren. If you have it Ot would be awesome.

Which is why I hate Facebook and simply refuse to use that as a platform for anything.

It would appear that the personal info thing is the trigger for them (facebook). They are too paranoid, and it's unhealthy. The entire enterprise is a sewer.

So I looked for it and for some reason I only have 7 issues from 2002. I looked through all 7 and did not see your letter. Is there a chance it was in 2001 or 2003 because I have all of those.

Sooner or later, someone there will be looking for something else.

Did Hotboat really have a magazine?
