Do we have to join all three sites for answers??

Hi again,
Just a question, but it appears that I have to join all three sites (Rennlist; RennTech; 6Speedonline) to get answers for all my 'new to Porsche' questions. Great DIY stuff found on Renntech but most of the stuff appears to be found on this or Rennlist site; so I just asking because aren't most of ya'll on all three?
Thanks for your time.

Over at Rennlist you have to deal with the Gen Y testosterone. Here is just the norm internet banter. renntech is where the tech folks are. Yep you need all three!

awesome- just pulling your chain with the grasshopper stuff, I think after a bit you'll see the benefit of each site. I went through the same thing.

rennlist is the least reliable - they seem to be under service attack quite often. That is when an attacker sends thousands of requests every second against a single server (web site) blocking access. This is a common asian/nigerian tactic to disrupt commerse.

I think I'm here most because (1) the site is easy to use and navigate and (2) great crowd and community. Plus a ton of modding knowledge. Not much BS here and when there is it is stamped out pretty quickly.

Renntech.org is a fav of mine as well, Loren (runs the site) is a pcar walking encyclopedia of knowledge and a nice guy. Drop $20 over there to become a contributing member and get access to all the TSB's, tech manuals, etc.

Well, I think you are right--I did join all 3. Hard to beat Renntech for really technical questions . . .

It is a prerequisite to be a member at all three, each has its own strong points.

You can always tell a political year. +1 for all 3 sites for different reasons.

Okay I get it.............Your right-on about RennTech, I've already done the spoller switch, garage door opener switch, and gotten the best place to get parts; I also agree that this site is what I would call the most mature site; as in the folks dealing with 996 issues.
It's just when I have a question, I have to now figure which site to post it on??? Also, It's kind of hard dealing with this "must post so many post to be able to do ANYTHING!" that ya'll have. I can't even get a picture to come up on any of the sites, what's up with that???
All that being said...............Ya'll are just great and I really hope to be a part of your group...one day.
C'ya,
