My Opinion
Sunday, September 25, 2005 10:36 PM
I just signed up for this site. As you can see, I am a 8 cyl fan, but times are changing. But, one thing I do not understand.

There is a lot of trash talking, with people of the same interests (J-Body cars), if some one has a question, and did not look up, no need to make them feel stupid, just direst them. If somebody has an idea, on lowering, you may not like but that is your opinion, not to degrade them. Also, some of you have comments and do not know what you are talking about. Example, leveling a car does not redirect air to un-stablize car. If you know anything about handeling, you would know about roll centers and pivot points.



oh well I have said enough and am very disappointed with this group of people

Doug, you are correct. Many people will tell you that I'm the last person to put down someone because they don't know something or because they did something to their car that I don't agree on. I think those people you talk of are the select few of people of the JBO. There are lots of nice people that alot of others miss out on because of them.

The best way to deal with things is to stay true to yourself, ignore rude comments or if you feel you should speak up on what they say, reply to them in an mature manner and not calling each other names.

About the 8 cylinder remark, there are alot of people who have been into 8 cylinders for years and are just getting into the 4 cylinder market/scene...that's why he said that. You can be a fan of 8 cylinder vehicles and be on a perdomonantly 4 cylinder forum website.

Welcome to the JBO by the way...

how? he's already offended - otherwise he wouldn't have posted....and frankly, he's right. there's a lot of trash talking the newbs for things that are unnecessary. see Starr's post in this thread...that was completely uncalled for, ESPECIALLY considering she's still a newb herself.

it's people like that, and all the stupidity that runs rampant around here, that keep OG members like Scruf from posting as much as he used to. if the stupid responses in any section other than Off Topic would stop, then folks who know their stuff - like him - would probably be more likely to stick around.

the only thing i was getting to in my post was whether he would have posted or not, its not gonna change anything. the ignorant on this site will still be ignorant. one thread isn't going to change them. all you can do is just ignore them and hope they go away.

Like how a 2.4L 4 cyl with a little work could equal the power of a factory 400 c.u.i. (200hp)

I agree! Why make them feel stupid. Just let them post useless statements on a BBS.

What we don't know in handling. We know in spell checking and proof reading.
