Please keep the personal insults coming. I really appreciate it.

For your info, I own a 2013 BRZ. So if that makes me some type of stuck up, anal-retentive asshole, then I'm sure I mirror all the other BRZ owners on the forum.

My point is this: what's the point of having these rules if it's allowed to be broken? As the first person who replied said, "maybe it's time to change the rules?"

I know it's easy to just not click on the thread, but I've moderated plenty of forums and participated in countless others, and this type of behavior (see no evil hear no evil) may be okay for someone that doesn't care much about it, but what does it say about the forum member's overall respect towards women?

We do have a few female members here, and are we treating them like the same women we objectify in the threads?

If the threads are perfectly acceptable and the site admin is okay with it, then so be it. I just ask that a few things be considered:

- There are minors on the forum, some with parental consent, some without...
- What would female members on the forum feel about this?
- Most of the forum (including the Off Topic section) is viewable without logging in. Might want to change that at the very least...
- Maybe a dedicated NSFW/OT section should be created? And an option to hide that subsection?

In any case, feel free to make all the personal attacks you want if you feel I'm in the wrong. I'm glad I'm getting a laugh out of all these too. Some people just can't have a constructive discussion without putting others down.

too bad these tuner boyz lack the intellgience to see the issue from a broader perspective. Dem boobies are distracting them.

Judging by the evolution of posts on this site, I’d say a sexuallydeprived mid 20s male? Did I get that right?

Tell that to the person that said I was a Camry owner... and what does "normal" mean in the context of this?

Didn't realize being "normal" meant posting sexual content on a car forum. Sorry, I'll go read the rules again...

Whoops, I fed the troll. Sorry guys.

And mav, for you to take this to the level of objectifying women only tells me you are trying to start a fight.

Welcome to the internet, the home of opinionated asshats (such as you and I), pron, and things you will disagree with.

You did notice that you have "2005 Camry" in your little information over there, right?

I'm trying to start a fight? Okay, if you say so.

My post was written as a question for the mods and the site admin. But if you view it as me starting a fight, then so be it. Can't help everyone.

What is the relevance of the car I have listed to the issue I am raising? Oh wait, it's the internet, and along with agreements, logic is also tossed out the window.

If I don't list a car then I'm sure some opinionated asshat will just post about how I don't have a car.

This thread is obviously going nowhere. My issue has been said, mods/admin can do as they see fit.

Keep the personal insults coming. Love it.

-alex

P.S. This was written with the health and well-being of the overall forum in mind. A single thread may not seem like much to you, but to an outsider it says a lot. At some point the forum will transform from a place of discussion, to a place of pride... but until members have mutual respect and courtesy, as well as some nettiquette, FT86 Club will never get to the level of, say, BMWCCA or PCCA or any of the other older established clubs, and will just forever be associated with only the car and the quality of the members, for better or worse.
