      Hey gang, I know I'm not among the more prominent contributors here, but Oppo is definitely a unique place online that actually provides a sense of belonging purely for the love of automotive things.

      We aren't bound to each other by any significant real-life commitments so we can post here without any of that baggage. So I wanted to write something to both thank and encourage everybody here, especially the mods/curators.

      I have been impressed and humbled by the personal stories of many Oppo members, and I appreciate that the place offers a haven for people to share some of their personal challenges sans filter.

      To be honest, I didn't really believe that Kinja would finally kill Oppo--this had been predicted many times before so of course I'm sad that it finally happened. For a while I worried about saving my important posts, but after thinking about it I'm perfectly happy with keeping the memories and only screenshotting the one post that I might ever need again (a bumper removal procedure).

      Now that we're here, I would gladly chip in to fund the maintenance of this place, so I am expecting a free-range shitposting licence--of course, everyone here deserves it all the same.

      So, happy motoring and shitposting to everyone. F355s for your time, from when I first gained authorship at Oppo.

      Should I look forwards or backwards in life? Well, where's the engine?

        Lower left-hand corner of this post: a donate button

        It doesn’t typically show up on the main page because of infinite scroll.

            @just-jeepin you can turn off infinite scroll I'm your user settings if you like. I have it off.

              Thanks. You’ve placed that Donate button very strategically on the settings page!

                @jminer I'll go and do just that. I prefer it that way but it's nice to have the option.

                  @just-jeepin Ha! well it's just stuck on the footer so it'll show up wherever that is.

                    Glad to have you with us @chan ! I was pretty humbled reading everybody's stories over on KinjOppo and here as things were going down the drain and shortly thereafter....I'm glad to be here trying to help everyone and everything get back to rights 🙂
