I find it best to ignore comments from a peanut gallery... You are never going to get someone like that to see your side.

Well said, I basically ignored him more often than not, meh takes all kinds on a forum. I guess I've been around forums and message boards for so long (pre internet/BBS guy here) that I don't get all that bent out of shape by them. Sadly there were times when what he said I agreed with but hey, sometimes I agree with George W too. Uhh, yeah that last one was a lie.
That being said I have learned when to not comment on something or how to word it a little more diplomatically than V would.
It has been said that it’s in everyone’s power to ignore someone you do not agree with…
I can go along with that. You can just simply ignore someone and move along which is exactly what I did when reading a threat and suddenly there was V. with all the negativity and bashing I simply moved on to another thread and most likely missed serious comment, helpful opinion and good advice but my personal time was spent better elsewhere… in another thread.
Nice job moderators!

someone needs to pimp my ass
so he will either be banned again, or he will change his ways as to not get banned. either way, the forum wins this situation.

I won't deny for a single moment, that V wasn't at times, very annoying and there were also those particular moments, in which he really pissed me off, with all his negative remarks, comments..However on the other hand ? part of me, actually felt sorry for him..perhaps the guy, may have been going through some really difficult times, in his personal life or something, in which he may have been unable to cope.. and if he did ? it's a shame, he was unable to find someone to depend on, for help..But then again, it's also not an excuse, when you take those frustrations out on innocent people, for no reason either..and although I'll admit, that at times ? I still struggle with taking negative remarks, such as his, as being personal ? I've also learned during the last 2 years, from the advice I've taken from both Bigcat and Jenn..that it's far better to just ignore people like that, and take them with a grain of salt, instead of fueling into it with even more negative feedback..And IMHO, for the most part.. I've been a much better person, both off and online as a direct result..Anyway, I truly hope that in someway, V has perhaps learned a valuable lesson from all this ? and may hopefully apply it, towards both himself and for those around him, in a positive direction..

I wouldn't extend the time and effort if I didn't care, Bro.

Love Ya too Jenn, and yet 2 years later.. I've never forgotten all the advice and support, you've provided since..
DAMN. Has it been over 2 years, where has time gone. hahahahahhaha... Just seems like yesterday. Well....Stay the Course my Friend. You are doing awesome.
(Although I never acknowledge that the comment you made in the "Heretic" thread where you said something to the affect of..... "well if you love the LS engine so much why don't you go get one." Well it was more like this:

......helped me make the decision to buy one. Careful what you say, My Friend. Words are Power when analyzed through a reasoning brain. LOL )

I don't take anyone to serious that has a red on red on red car.
I thought the same at first... but when you see it, it works. I can't really talk about colors... my ride is Yellow.
So you all think that its great that V.B. was kicked out. To me it just shows how weak you all are... that you could not handle a little heated debate.

i dont its great. i think its kind of silly. he may have lacked tact but i agreed with v most of the time. also i admire bluntness.
I feel like if you like him that much Abe, then join up with him and start your own web based mustang forum of stone walled jackasses. you could call it www.stangcastaways.net. In the mean time, your welcome to stay with us because i think you must be a very open minded individual if you dealt with being a friend to V.
It has nothing to do with being weak my friend.
There is a huge difference between Serious Debate and having a constant uninterrupted pessimistic, spiteful attitude. There was absolutely no appeal to most everything that V. posted.
It is like finding yourself in a room with a loud obnoxious, opinionated individual that is never wrong. A little goes a long way with people like this and in most cases someone will remove themselves from such an atmosphere and in a polite manor. However, here on the internet you can politely show such individuals the door.
Toleration levels reached a low as evident by the majority of comments in this thread.
