Bickering and Bashing Threads

When I mentioned one forum it was when 94-95 had ONE room. Not one for tech and one for talk. FOX and 94-95 boards have been seperated since 2001.

Unless I am misunderstanding you, you want a single 94/95 room again? Just tech, and no talk, the way it was before? I like the talk section, it keeps the BS out of tech.

But enough about tech/talk, this thread is about flames and personal attacks, which should not be tolerated. I think I mentioned it before, and it got shot down, but maybe we should have a "war zone" so to speak, a seperate non-mustang forum (kinda like the Wild Horse Saloon) where people can say (for the most part) what they want. Maybe that will keep the bickering out of the tech threads. Then the mods can crack down on those cluttering up tech with their whiny BS.

I think sometimes people are just bored or frustrated about..could be anything..maybe they want to fix up their cars more and can't spend/don't have the money. Some people take it out on the roads others the forums. Either way itls like punching yourself in the face. Overall I like this forum and yes Paul is a great contributor. I am also ok with people who are willing to give suggestions that may or may not be the fix. There's nothing wrong with that. No one is here has to have the perfect answer all the time, nor should they be looked down on b/c they don't. Just do your best and contribute.

what?! are you guys kidding?!

I forgot about all this until I checked today and saw what developed. I think there are way more guilty parties here than are admitting. I also feel as if there's no reason to gang up on 1evil88vert.

I DO THINK WE NEED A FORUM SPECIFICALLY FOR ARGUMENTS.

If there was one, I could've spoken my mind by now. I did not ask for everyone to bash my vehicle or myself, I asked for generic opinions about AFR heads. So yes, I DID ask a blanket question. I direct all those who're angry at my lack of evidence, or my vagueness, or even the setup of my car, straight to the beginning of the thread.

For all those who protect Paul and his greatness, remember, he was the first one to make any sort of slanderous comment to anybody. I guarantee I know less than a lot of people here, and I also gaurantee I know a lot more than a lot of people here. To tell somebody they don't know what the hell they're talking about is a DIRECT slap in the face, and that's what angered me. There isn't a single person here who has the right to act as if they're better than anyone else, even if their 12 second "perfect" car with a blown motor was in a magazine. For others to condone and encourage his and grn92LX's behavior is condoning mine AND 1evil88vert's.

Everyone needs to read more carefully around here. What's not said is not always a sign of ignorance. I still hold almost everyone around here in great esteem EXCEPT "grn92lx" and "perfect Paul".

Everyone on most of these forums seems to be out to portray themselves as the expert. Most people on here DO know what they're talking about, and don't need to be"told off" by errogant people with more money and nicer cars. Maybe they're forgetting that hot rodding is supposed to be fun. So everyone needs to take a giant chill pill and stop sharking the forums for people who appear to be ignorant in the vain hopes that they can slam the "ignorant" party and feel good about themselves.

THANK you.
Now, I must go get some good, honest, HUNGRY texans their french fries.

Okay.

Anyways, I think there are a few on here because they can drive good or have some money (I'm honestly not pointing anyone in particular out) and that qualifys them as experts...I just don't understand that And for the ones that say well this person has been there and done that? What all different mods did they try so they could get that "been there done that"? Backup what you say of someone or have them do it. Also, "some" on here get away with being rude or putting down a part because they can drive good or have some money for the "good parts". I don't understand how that can be tolerated any less than "us"?

One person does not need to overlap another's opinion to a point.

I don't think there should be an argument forum because it might help but won't solve any problems. Reason being is that misinformed information or opinions are going to be expressed in any part of the forum (tech or "argument" section) and thus, it will begin more arguments no matter where at.

Oh and just to throw it in...I think the whole CAPS thing to interject a point is funny. Too many people DO it now so IT lost it's POINT.

This stuff really kills me.. I wish there was some way to block users who talk trash in these forums...

The way these forums were last year is why these forums were so great... since the crash (actually a little before) these forums have gone down hill...

How about a section that you need at least 100 posts to be abel to post in to discourage noobs from posting???
