way to make the new guy feel welcome.


English is obviously not your first language, but you're trying and your post is completly legiable. As for your RX-7 i have no helpful ideas for you.

Welcome again.

WELCOME!!! Glad you signed up and joined AF. As for ideas about your RX7, you can search the web and look for import events.

Welcome again.

He lives in Alabama. Im sorry, for the unwarm welcome, but seriously.

I live in California. I was born in India.

So are you saying I must be able to speak "proper english" because I live in California, or the United States for that matter?
Is it just me or is this a extremely childish, if not ignorant, statement?

I've been on this forum for only 10 months.
Several things just completely irk me:

The constant bickering about "speaking english"
The lack of helping a fellow modeler, i.e. "go check the faq" or "use the search" feature
Complaining about lack of replies to one's thread(and if you say this is your last time posting here, don't come back!)

I didn't create this forum, but ideally wouldn't it make sense to:

1)Post pictures
2) Comment, criticize, commend etc.
3) Help each other

I think it's sad to focus on grammar and lingo. Comment on the car modeling, not the hobbyist.

I was just thinking "Here we go again", But then I got to 675datsun's post, well said. It has been irking me for a long time too.

Welcome to the forum.

Dave

Yeah, i agree. If someone doesn't have something constructive or helpful to say they should just hold back from using the keyboard for a bit and look for a thread that is of some interest to them instead of wasting their own time and everyone elses by saying something stupid. I'm sure alot of people could even get put off asking something incase of persicution. And by the way, i live in sweden but i am not swedish.

Oh and welcome God.

Welcome to AF........!!!

Mike :sunglasse

yea if you dont have anything nice to say dont say anything.

He lives in Alabama.

No he doesn't. He just picked the first state in the list. Rule number one should be "think before post".

LOL guys who cares, some of you guys treating his first post in this manner is very childish!!.

anyhow, welcome to AF!!. I cant wait to see some of your models!!

;) welcome!

Welcome to AF! please post pictures of your models if you have any.

And about your project RX7....what are your plans for it? Like exterior color. Is it going to be a Street car, Show car, Drifter, Racer, Stock, etc....
The more information we know, the more we can help you.

No he doesn't. He just picked the first state in the list. Rule number one should be "think before post".

No rule number one is follow the AF guidelines. That includes writing in English! If "god is a dj" cannot fill his profile in corectly then how is Mike or anybody else to know better?

woops

So two wrongs make a right ?

I have been to many other forums on the web, and it only seems to be a problem here. :2cents:

Dave

Come on guys how soft are you all? Mike's initial comment was hardly heavy or out of order. Go back and read it again, what is to get upset over that? He was simply stating a fact, no rudeness, threats or anything other than a simple heads up. The over reaction to it is quite puzzling - just an excuse for some people to push their favourite wheelbarrow :rolleyes:

from what i read

the new guy just missing "am" in the "i new" .

WHAT A BIG DEAL .. wow!

This whole thread reflects badly on our community here, a new member posts and it turns into an argument?

Disappointing! :disappoin:

So two wrongs make a right ?

Where are the wrongs? All I can see is a member not filling in a profile truthfully and poor english, neither of which are terribly wrong in the global scheme of things. In fact I'm not even sure about the first one, maybe he is from Alabama?

I have been to many other forums on the web, and it only seems to be a problem here. :2cents:

I've been to plenty of other forums on the web too. None of them are as good as AF in my humble opinion. We have been over this so many times I am truely sick of it. Post how you like, let AF go to the dogs, but be prepared for the flack if you do.

It's often obvious when posters are not posting in their native tongue, and this is one of those times. Therefore, we should welcome god is a dj.

If it's not obvious to you if they are butchering English intentionally or personal, than better play it safe and keep mum about it.

Honestly, while I know I've been rather vocal on this topic and this comment may make me hypocritical, this sort of thread comes up entirely too often. Time to direct our energies toward sick car (or truck) models, or if you're glued to the internet, reference for said models.

Q: Why did the cowboy get a Dachshund?


A: He wanted to get a long little doggie!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Anyone else see what is going wrong here?

Maybe the over reaction is because is just one in a series of many such instances. Like there was one guy asking the diference between the red and yellow enzo, apart from the colour, and he got loads stick from it.

Welcome new Modeller.
Any modeller is a good member and it have nothing to do with what contry he's in or what language he spoke first when he was born. I try to speak english everytime I come here and I just hope somebody understand me (I try to do it properly).

I understand you boddy and I welcome a new Modeller.

I remember when I came in here and there was this guy who named himself GRAMMARPATROL (or something like that) and this guy was always on my back and I felt terrible about that, I almost turned down AF for this, but one day... he dissapear like a bad flu... that day I was in heaven ! I'm glad I struggle enough to get him out of my back because AF is a great place to be !

Martbee, your english is so good I never would have guessed you spoke another language.

i sorry about my english
and not need to be irritated
next time i will watch twice before
i post and about my rx-7 i want to be
a stock you know maybe some dark light
in the back of it and i think the interior is will be yellow?
some idea i here for new offers
thanks

yellow...hmm, it might work. I would suggest a tan or leather like color if you are looking for something in that yellowish tone. What kit is the RX7? is it the Tamiya? Fujimi? or Aoshima?
Good luck.

JeFF

Instead of fighting in here....go and build something!
Dissappointing to have to read this sort of crap from AF modellers.

Thread closed so it doesnt drag on and on :rolleyes:
