I think Arthur announced he was leaving or something very similar. A fountain of knowledge on the older benzes. Generous too.

Fellas, this is pretty much a classic "forum drama" departure. You can bet that the recently departed is reading all of this.

OD is entertaining and like noses, everyone has an opinion. However, I still believe the focus of this forum should be Mercedes Benz and only Mercedes benz issues due to the fact that political and religious issues tend to get people riled up. It is very easy to get into a mud slinging match on OD which may result in hurt feelings, etc. which may not be a positive experience for the parties involved.

Haha....I've never ventured onto OD but have found that people get plenty "riled up" and border on mud slinging just talking about oil and such!

it seems that some people can get riled up about most anything, including oil. Time to take a breath of fresh air and see the big picture. Communication can sometimes be difficult.......
