Richard Tracy Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 A few years at Rwg1, and Trc,.. Great Place,.. Trc,...Nice & relaxed,... Tons of related info... Somewhat like a small town, though the membership count was high,.. the activity was slow & easy, like a Sunday in the park.. and I bounced back and forth from a fast paced city of Rwg1 to the clear calm pond of Trc,... Then Rwg1 started to deteriorate with infighting, insults, slights, flaming and out-right,..isms,. that cut the ties between why we were gathered there together in the beginning,.. which is a love of time, represented in mechanical form,.. Then Admin, Ken, and a few good men, took the best of Rwg1,..and Combined it with the worldly intelligence of Trc and Rwg.cc was born,.. The best of all Worlds,... Fast but on the right path,.. like a well heeled automobile on the Autobahn.. Recently however some of the insensitive blindness that tore Rwg1 apart has reared it's ignorant cave mentality here, and I sincerely hope that it's checked with the foresight of our past experience, not crudely censored, before it reproduces itself, and infects this board, carrying it down the same path to ruin as it's predecessor,.. If it does,.. I'm sure that Trc may end up being what is always was.. an Oasis,.. a Survivor that knows why it's there and remains like a Rock in Stormy seas,.. Five Cheers for TRC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfreeman420 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 I can't believe it's been 5 years already. Jfreeman420 Joined: January 8, 2003 Member 155 I still stop by once a day. I can't even count how many watches I have had in the last 5 years. Mind blowing. Good to see we're all still going strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 I joined TRC about 18 months ago. It was my first home in this hobby. I wish it another five years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Chief, You know the rules about bad language on this forum! And that name is as bad as it gets.... my one major scam in my rep times... cost me $1k+. Now go and stand in the corner... bad language indeed! (She/it was also the reason for my siggy.) Offshore I still have a Natalie watch. A rather nice Cartier Roadster with ETA 2824. To date, it's the most accurate I've seen.... but that's not saying a whole lot.

watcher Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 I joined there in March 03 and will always lean more to that site than any of the others. Boy how reps have changed and not for the better. Well not in fit and finish anyway. Here's to the next 5 TRC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omni Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 Boy, it has been a long time. I didn't join TRC until Aug. 2004 after I heard about it on RWG1. It is a true oasis in the sea of newbie forums. Congrats Admin on the longevity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
