no sense of humor

on this board. a damn shame. let's lock threads to make more room for another "OMG I'M ABOUT TO GET MY CAR" discussion.

I think the board is perfectly fine. When it becomes a little to anything goes, you start to see a drop off in informative posts because people don't want to be immediately flamed. There are too many examples of this in other car forums, and it ends the same way every time (a small group stay and shit disturb, and the rest move on to other related forums).

locking threads and calling everything you don't understand "spam" is just as likely to run people away as saying "anything goes".

if you don't like a thread topic (or don't understand it) just don't read it. why protest, yell spam, and get threads locked? bunch of whiney, sensitive pricks.

Well the good thing is that you sound like you're well on your way to getting the boot.

^^ seems to me like it was the ones who didn't understand a thread were the ones who were thin skinned.

But you're the one complaining about it. Quit the bitching, and just start contributing like the other 99% of us here.

"contributing"??? hahahhahaha

it's a fucking message board. the point is to discuss things. stifling discussion kind of defeats the purpose.

This is forum available to everyone out there. There is going to be lots of topics you might think are a waste of time. The best thing to do is the same thing you would do in real life. If a couple dudes are talking about something you have no interest in keep walking.

There is topics posted here that make you wonder wtf? But it's all good. There is Alot of good info and educated people here too.
