"Isn't this kind of a drive by?"
Did I do something wrong?
I've been a member here for over 4 years, I just don't post
very often.
I'll share the build list as soon as I have it.

Driveby threads are typically those where the OP posts pictures or links without any kind of text expanding upon those items or giving a context. They often get locked as a sort of spam. But I am 100% not a moderator. To me if you just discussed them a bit about what you had done, why, and your experience with the results it wouldn't be a driveby.
