my two cents...

[Beastiek2]

This forum acts like every other forum on the NET. There are stupid people and knowledgable people. You can expect everyone to get along, especially when people do not use the search button, or ask a quesion that was asked yesterday. And If you do not like the way people act well nothing you can do about it. Just make sure you dont act like them. We do give our opinions and support, and sometimes we mess around. WELCOME to AF !!

So either step up and take the lows with the highs or just get the fuck out.

heh... shit is in the eye of the beholder. allllllrightythen.

whether someone is an ass or not is. The perfect example...Ricochet. The newbies would probably think he's a straight up asshole because of his replies, but I know that for the most part he isn't an asshole, and he knows what he is talking about.

I didnt read this thread yet but the old man in the first post is fuckin hilarious

Old man.... if you've bin a mechanic for 24 years, I'd think you'd know a little more about the "go fast game" cause what i read in ur post (quoted below) is a nice oxymoron

totally right- he's like a lot of the "old timers" on here- sick of the shit that newbies pull, when people are just trying to talk.

slantsixness is another one like that, although i havn't seen him on lately.

now this here is a prime example of an asshole reply. this kind of post deserves to be shot down and torn to shreds. its best to just ignore shit like this because, well, its shit.

im with all of you who say a car is a car. im a fan of driving, working for something(going faster, making things better), and just having fun with cars. I AM NOT A FAN of hondas, mitsubishis, chevies, fords, imports, or muscle cars. people should just enjoy cars in general.. and not hate other people for driving automatic 93 dx's. because we all know it IS just a car.

What is that supposed to mean. I am a newb and I know I dont know much about cars which is why I havent responded to any persons questions in regards to problems I dont know about , havent experienced , and have no credible information for.

I am on these boards because I have a problem with my car. My civic is overheating and now has a blown gasket (maybe). I will continue to stay here and help in things I know about. I also thank anyone who helps me with my problem.

SO I hope this isnt what you mean when you say that lately the NEWBs suk.

Just my 2-cents as well

I believe he was refering to all the newbies that have been asking stupid questions over and over again. Like; "who will win between these car", "how will my car do in the ¼ mile with these mods", "which engine will be best for my car", etc. All those questions are pointless or have been answered (well the engine one anyways). And not to mention that "frankie" loser who feels the need to come up with 2 new screennames everyday and spread misinformation. Stay here long enough and you'll be saying "newbies suck lately" too. You start to see the same stupid questions time and time again and it gets annoying at times. But questions about problems with cars are always welcome, that's what this board is mainly for.

Beastiek dont ever call me a newb cause i've bin at these forums 2 YEARS longer than you have... i was at this forum when it was first created late 2000, and registered early 2001. I was here when the forum looked completely different with the old vbulletin, when all the hondatuner people came here, when they had the off-topic in the honda forums.

I've bin here a long ass time... i just had to register a new name, cause i forgot the password to my nick and have a diff email


That said... i dont like hypocrites, when a guy comes on here thinking he's smarter than everone else cause he's a "old timer" thats just annoying. I mean the guy is sayin you guys dont know nothing about the "go fast game" while he chooses to drive a fuckin AUTOMATIC?! gimme a break

I dont give 2 $hits how long you have been here. But when you come in this thread and post crap, especially after we are trying to defend everyone it makes you look like a fool dude I mean come on. No offense against ya, but it was a good reason to point a finger. Now I am not siding with this guy, I am rather explaining how forums work. Now if he cant grasp that then his loss. I love AF and everyone hea, so sorry for getting on ya about that, just feel where I was coming from.
