oh come on man! it won't be the same without ya....don't take this stuff so seriously ;)

Yet another example.

It was funny 2 years ago.

It's just irritating.

If we should one day cross paths - and your teeth were on fire, I would not even take the time to piss in your mouth.

Joking and humour is one thing - constantly being a prick is another.

I now know why a number of people just up and said "Fuck it.." and left.

bubye.

Dang dude, it would be a pity to let you go!

I can understand of course that the same old neverending discussions/fight can one day become too much and of course nobody will force you to stay, but like the others, I'd like you to reconsider and maybe just avoid the sensible topics ;)

no one said anything to you more than what you say to others....you're just way oversensitive to people talking smack about your car.....or anything even remotely related to your car or your opinions. you really should learn how to separate opinions from facts.

Sorry fucker - you are NOT going to have the last word on my way out.

I am not over sensative to "what people say about my car" - never have been and never will be - but I am not going to sit idle and watch people post shit.

What you post is shit.

Bullshit opinion and inuendo - you try to fuck up topics and be an arsehole on purpose just to spew your crap. You and others.

it was funny the first 1,000 times - but it gets tiring.

Talking smack is one thing - but constantly puking in peoples wheaties is something totally different. That is what you have decided to make your mission. Funny 1,000 times - irritating on the 1,001th time.

The last straw was demon posting that shit in the video compilaiton thread - completely out of context and pointless.

A-fyucking-gain.

Go and find ONE SINGLE instance where I have fanboyed and not posted facts?

One instance - you will not find any because I am not about to post falsehoods, lies or crap.

I don't work that way.

I have gone to great panes to actully point out the difference between the cars - and made a point of highlighting and acknowledging weaknesses - even magnifying them - that is not fanboying - that is being realistic and honest.

The difference is when it goes on and on and on and on for years - it just irritating and tiring.

Enough is enough.

I am exhausted - JWed out.

well enamel on the teeth is pretty fire resistant and even in charred and burned bodies teeth don't really catch fire, thus protecting me from your filthy and classless visions of pissing in people's mouths. ugh......strange little imagination you have, son. better get that checked out.

no one said anything to you more than what you say to others....you're just way oversensitive to people talking smack about your car.....or anything even remotely related to your car or your opinions. you really should learn how to separate opinions from facts.

well; it kinda comes down to this. people can state thier opinons all they want. If you dont like a car; then fine... but if you reasons are based soley on false facts; then by golly... I'll prove you wrong.

its become a broken record. people refuse to believe the truth. I dont care if you like a car or not.... or if i like it... but if you/me is believing it to be crap based on false facts... kinda retarded, eh?

its the same people over and over again who come in saying its impossible that even an American car can't handle.... no matter how many times cirtain folks come in and trounce these falshoods, and prove otherwise... just to see it happen again 4 days later with the same people. It is incredibly retarded.

RC- i thankyou for your concideration

If you do take off; drop me a line so we can keep in touch. I much prefer you stick around; even if you arent a moderator :) Just free up some of your time, go guzzle some gas, and such.

although; i have an idea to help curb the problems here.

RC, i'm sorry to hear that you're leaving. Seems as of late there has been a small exodus from JW. I am also hoping that we are not heading towards a re-enactment of what happened over at RF.

I can understand what is driving you to this decision though. I don't think i would want to continue repeating myself as much as you have and i commend you for your dedication to keeping this section somewhat civilized.

I am sure Nth can handle the task of keeping what you've started running smoothly. If anything, i hope you come back to at least lurk and occasionaly post something.

In the mean time, take it easy, terrorize some asphalt and show no mercy to the new Kuhmos :wink:

insecure and oversensitive. not our problem or anyone else's on this forum...it's just yours. on top of that you insult anyone who doesn't agree....pretty sad. you insult other people's countries, cars, races, religions, everything under the sun...and now you complain when someone speaks back to you. haha. bye then!

nthfinity would do be a great moderator of american muscle. much more knowledgable as well.

Again fucker - you will not have the last word.

you insult other people's countries, cars, races, religions, everything under the sun
All in context and part of the appropriate discussions - 110% of the time in "character" and in jest.

The crap you spew is just irritating. What you post is unfounded and unfactual. Incorrect and out of context.

Oh - and mostly childish as well.

Insecure and oversensitive? Is that the best you can come up with?

I covered for you breaking GM's cover - took the heat and the thanks I get is the fucking bullshit you have pulled over the last 2 years?

You will not get the last word - trust me on that one.

I really don't like that you are leaving RC but I do understand you.

I disagre with you on some topics but I like the way you're debating with a mix of humor, a lot of irony and hard facts.

And everso for fucks sake couldn't you resist being an asshole in this thread??

RC I really hope that you change your mind and stay. You will definetely be missed by one Swede :cry:

As far as i understand - RC is going to stick around - he's just fed up with the "trashing" (his words, not mine) of his Z06 threads, and is through with this section.

It would be a shame to see you go from JW, RC - i'd prefer you stick around :good:

RC I doubt your leaving for good, you dont seem like a guy who would leave just because you not getting along with someone.

seriously RC, c'mon... are you just gonna leave and take the easy way ? Yeah some comments are annoying and maybe that won't change, so why you don't just ignore those and take the ones that really contribute... a joke from time to time ain't bad, so just take it for what it is. I inderstand the fact that enough is enough but if some people annoy you its just a part of the community and that doesn't need to make you leave. As you may have annoyed others with your comments, which are a bit harsh, I don't think someone smart enough would leave for just a reason like that.
So think about it twice. :D

keep on crying. and don't bring up the GM stuff.....i posted it for YOU because you like the Corvette, which unfortunately multiplied to outside sources...wasn't really the fault of either one of us, as we are just car people.

Don't even try weasel out of it.

I graciously took the fall for you - and your true 2-faced unappreciative self showed up after a while.

I could have simply rolled over and given you up weeks before I had GM send their PI's to give me the squeeze.

The truth is you are just not the class-act you make yourself out to be - and this entire exchange proves it.


i'll just get on with my usual business. i'm not here to provide you with psychological help, i'm here to talk about cars.

seems you've lost the plot. i don't care about having 'the last word' because your comments get worse with every post you make.....rubbish in fact.

so carry on. ;)
Again - your true arsehole nature is beginning to shine through - I have enough back-channel confirmation from others about this.

The real reason the community at JW suffers the fragmenting and brekup it does is because of oppiniates such as yourself.

My comments get worse?

Why? Because they are candid truths you fail to face up to?

05-03-2006, 02:12 PM
Both of you are fighting like little girls. I agree that you can be very opinionated at times RC, and that you can be a tad bit oversensitive, but you also do back up a lot of the things you say with facts even though it does make you sound like a fanboy. Everso, I haven't really had any problems with any of the comments you have posted since I found JW, but you are being a bit of an ass right now. Actually, both of you are being asses. Can't we all just get along?

I just read the video thread that initiated this mess and frankly I can see what ticked you off about it, RC. And yes, the comments about American cars with bad handling directed at Z06s, Ford GTs, Vipers and the likes are getting tiresome, even for a die-hard Euro fan like me.

Problem is, you're not exactly unbiased yourself. You like to provoke people with a different taste just as easily. Plus, when you're trying to convince someone, I feel like I've been shouted at for half an hour when I'm done reading it. That's not helping and will also continue to draw in reactions.

Don't leave, though. Most of your views aren't mine, but that doesn't stop me from laughing at your jokes. And despite your debating style, the Z06's antics have certainly won my respect. In other words, we need both sides here.

This is a community which encompasses a lot of different nationalities, tastes, opinions, interpretations of "facts", like in the real world. With a few thousand members you just can't get along with every single one. In that case, and this is not aimed at RC but at everyone, stay a little out of each other's way.

stradale-

its always good to see you here, man. you and some of the others are the among the greatest reasons why I have found JW as the community that I belong to.

RC's style has always been that of 'devils advocate' something that nobody else has come close to mirroring here. sometimes it's evoked no responce... and others, all hell broke loose :lol:

im 100% sure its not just the corvette bashing that is realing RC out of here; but also the general loathing of the USA. the most knowlegdable people in pollitical though that I've met are immigrants to this country... including our friend Paul. although his accent cought me off guard when we spoke some time back :P

I definately concider everso another friend of mine, another great enthusiast who i've enjoyed being around immensly

... I'm not sure which of you two innitiated the whole corvette = gay = audi TT thing; and to where it is now; but seriously; name calling and the like just isn't accepted here, and never has been.

I'm not sure people realize how incredible this guy really is; and what a loss we would have without him. Jabba knows that; and in the past, it has always been a bragging point

Good post.

--> The following is not directed at any specific person but to everyone (including me of course)

In future, my advice to anyone is that if you don't like a particular car or cars from a certain country or a particular sub-forum stay out of it.

Ask yourself the question what do you want out of your time on this community - is to make friends?, spam, make fun of people and their ideas or their interests, or whatever.

I am here in JW to have a good time, relax and chat about F1, cars and since recently photography. Personally, I am not a fan of American Muscle and what I do is stay out of the entire forum. I have no interest in annoying others by posting this car is shit or that car is shit. What is the end game? What do I gain out of trolling?

Jumping in a forum to say that Car X is for hairdressers, or particular group of people are rednecks because they like American cars, or people who like or drive Ferraris are poseurs is really counter-productive and troll-worthy. It may seem funny the first time to you or the first few times perhaps but in long run it makes people form a distinct impression about you that you are biased or like to flame or whatever... It basically fans the flames ... Lets say Person X loves Euro cars and goes into the American forum to bash every car that is posted there. This provokes Person Y who is a fan of American cars to do the same in the European section.

End result: People are pissed and the quality of conversation/discussion deteriorates.

Personally, I used to be a huge poster in the JW F1 forum but of late I have posted very little. If someone asks a question or there is a topic that I know a bit about I reply but otherwise I stay out of it.

Why? Its because I'm finding this Alonso bashing propogated by a few individuals very tiresome. It is similar to the American Muscle forum in that I find the arguments put forward very fact-light and opinion-rich. It may seem very funny at first but then at least to a person like me who likes about 3 or more drivers in F1 - I find it extremely tiresome. It is not worth my valuable time to keep defending and arguing about it - I would find another F1 forum where the discussion is more neutral and informative. :bah:

Stradale and Sameerao, great posts, both of you.

There is alot of info around JW that has been buried in spam/troll bait. It amazes me how many simple questions have turned into flat-out arguments and mud-slinging competitions.

How St-Anger and Lakatu have kept Porsche Central clean of this, i will never know. Maybe they deleted shit like that before anyone could ever really see it, or perhaps RC has a much more valid point than i realize about no one tearing a Porche apart for the simple reason that it's a Euro car. I don't know, i don't care.

But i think that the constant American Car bashing may be more than that. Maybe underlying the plastic interior jabs and such, is more of an anti-America motive. Hell, maybe i'm just reading too far into it.

Sameerao has a point though, and in case you decided his post was too long to read, let me sum it up for you:

IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY, SHUT THE FUCK UP

Nth, i hope you can regin in some kind of order if you decide to take over American Muscle. Good luck buddy!

Leave mate? Common...

I was in the same boat as you. Tired off all the useless discussions, including one's with you, but you see I have little hats, as Jabba put it once. "Political Hat" and "Discussion Hat".

That way I dont really hold anything against anyone. I told LotusGT1 to fuck off in a political discussion, but that doesnt mean that I wouldnt drink a beer with his Dutch ass at a strip joint if I meet him one day :wink: Dunno how he feels about it though...

Same with you...And same with a few other memebers...Just want to say "fuck you, you, you and you!"....latte crowd comments for x years are annoying aswel ;)


Hence you no longer find me in Vette Vs. World threads, nor do I bother much with any political discussions.

I just stand on the sidelines now and watch people fight...and fuck is that intertaining...

So you should do the same ;)


ANyway if you decide to leave all the best to you, keep in touch via msn though ;)

As difficult as it may seem, sometimes you just have to let stuff go. I have been a member of JW since the beginning, but you have never seen me get into a heated debate with anyone during that time. Sometimes you have to let folk go on believing what they do. They believe it for a reason, and a few people on the internet aren’t going to end up changing those imbedded beliefs. Arguing on the internet is pointless. Friendly debates on the internet can be fun. Leave them as just that – friendly debates.

Is there an anti-American sentiment on JW? You bet there is. Will it ever end? Not bloody likely. Do I let it get me down? Of course not. This is one case where America is the minority in the big playing field of the world. The minority will always be looked down upon and that will never change.

I’m tired of seeing respected JW members leave. We are supposed to be a damn family.

I even remember the 1st time when you used your "charisma" on me. The day I posted how Infiniti dealership was going to do the cablework to hook up my Valentine.

Besides, I never called you ignorant as you did towards me when I asked about the 6th gear on the Corvette. You always act up like if you were a friggin dictator. Well, booo hoo, I'm so sad Castro... now you are the little cry baby.

BTW, this is what you posted - a blatant uncalled for trashing of thread that had NOTHING to do with a car test even - it was a video for people who enjoy the car - period.

I have another video. Its a BestMOtoring one

Ferrari 360, GT-R, Porsche 911, EVO, Corvette (guess who comes out last)

If I had the interest, I would go research, but I am almost certain you were a huge contributor to Dan leaving as well.

You are totally wrong in me being a contributer to dan's departure. Do your research, drop the C6 Corvette porno mag you always read. I was HERE at JW wayy before you.

To be exact, I was here 2nd to Jabba only. Jabba and I were the two first doods at JW.

And Dan did not leave because of me (not even one bit). I never asked for something to be fixed, I always thanked him for his effort, and I am not a retard who doesnt appreciate Jabba, and Jabba knows that.

NEVER have I insulted ANYONE here till you asked for it. And what? Posting a silly link showing the Corvette be destroyed in your "wonderful" thread offends you? This is a forum opened to anyone and I posted that link to discuss it. I wasnt going to make a new thread out of it. So do your work and show proof of "the bad member I am" and "how I made Dan leave." You'll be surprized how you find jack-shit of it.

@666fast - you are a regular yourself, Im sure you know how RC45 is, you've read his comments and I am sure what he wrote, at one point, mad you uneasy. He is all about attacking people even though (like me) people dont even want to fight. All the want is a simple car-discussion.

As the others, I hope you'll still lurk or just post in "calm" sections.

You didn't plan on a fight - yet you still posted the shit you did.

That my friend is the mark of a young immature mind - doesn't think before it speaks.

Whether missed or not - why would I care - there is really only one person whose opinion I value, and that's Jabba - thank you very much. For the rest, there as respect and admiration - and the remaining idots... well I don't suffer fools.

BTW, you learn to wire a radar detector yet?

Being the"special" person you are, I think you deserve a farewell Tribute...

From what I see, you like the quote/answer/quote a lot, so I decided to do one just for you. Doesnt it already make you feel special? :oops:

(I'd find more quotes for you, but you aren't worth my time)

A Moment in History, with RC45

So to anyone wanting to know - Borla XR's and longtubes are SpeedTV Challenge Car loud - not for the faint of heart :P
.
.
.
Below 2000 rpm it is really nice and deep and rumbline... 2500 it is attention getting - 3000rpm is as loud as I was at 6000rpm before... 3500 to 6000 sounds like a full bore Can AM race car.

Apparently you like the "american muscle" cuz it sounds loud. Sounds like a broken fridge if you ask me. Surely, you love NASCAR too huh? Stupid redneck sport where all you need is an idiot driver going in a straight line and barely turning. SO easy and yet so many accidents.

The '01's may be down 20hp, but we are lighter and the power delivery about makes up for it - and a cold air intake and exhaust levels the playing field - followed with a cam and the "405" and "385" cars all ed up equal.

Plus, the 2001 is the original.. :) All the others are cheap wannabe immitation clones

Here is you dissing on your own "wonderful piece of american." Also saying that the 385 is lighter, 20 pounds lighter. If you were that conserned about weight, you should be on a diet rather than finding how to drop 5lbs on your car.


I respect your sentiment but again - your own uneducation and bias is showing up right here...



:shock: damn you put some effort into that last post. Im not sure how i was showing bias and uneducation, by saying "give the car some credit". I did'nt say it in the frame of mind that the previous models was'nt any good. I think you were readin in wrong context to what I meant.
Actually alot it seems to me was taken the wrong way, probably my fault since im not the best writer, and i did write alot :P. Well it was a peace talk in a way, i guess i failed :|

Here is you making someone else feel bad....

Wow - I didn't know Porshces suck at handling straight dry roads?

Another german car failing to make the grade... right? :roll:

I dont like porsches myself, but its because they are lazy designers. The cars themselves are awesomelly fast and DO handle well despite their engines being in the "wrong" position. What amazes me is that on another thread, you said you'd defend a Citroen 2CV if someone talked crap about it huh? How true to your word you are! Or is it the age factor? hmm... it must be getting to ya since you dont even abide by what you post.

Is this your idea of the best car "ever evar"? HorsePower and only good on a straight line?


And the LAST quote:
Out with the old... In with the New... :arrow: http://media.rc45.net/media/New_Headers.zip
I guess your own quote pretty much sums up resignation and nthfinity's postulation to take over.

@666fast - you are a regular yourself, Im sure you know how RC45 is, you've read his comments and I am sure what he wrote, at one point, mad you uneasy. He is all about attacking people even though (like me) people dont even want to fight. All the want is a simple car-discussion.

I know how RC is. I also slightly agree with his arguement. Take a peek through this forum, it's full of inane babble about american cars and how crappy they are, whether or not what they have to say is fact or fiction. It's a never ending debate that RC took upon himself to try and clear up. Unfortunately, it was a waste of his time.

I do understand his arguement, and he does have a point. It does get annoying when someone preconcieved notions are completely biased and untrue.

Has he attacked people, well, yes. I wouldn't say attacked is the right word though. He has defintely argued tooth and nail. Does he sometimes go overboard with his comments? Yes, most everyone on this board has at one point or another. I remember getting into an arguement with Speedkillar. Can't remember why though, which is probably good, since it was probably stupid.

I'm not here to judge who was right and wrong. Simple answer is that it isn't any one person. Everyone is guilty.

I suppose the only answer to this, is to maybe start another thread where the regular members and admins, mods etc.. can have a CIVIL discussion on how to avoid problems like these. One of the best things about this place, was how much of a tight knit group we were. When things like this happen, it's painfully obvious, some of the magic has been lost. How about we stop the insults and try to get this place back to the way we all know, and want, it to be.

Lets all remember, everyone here is here for one reason only, they are car fans. It doesn't, and shouldn't, matter which model or make you like or don't like, the least everyone can do is respect anothers opinion.

As I stated earlier, RC, please don't leave. I think we have enough intelligent members here to find a way out of this and get back to the way it should be.

If RC leaves, I am sure he will be missed by far less people than when Dan left, if at all. I, myself, think it will make things better.

all I ask is that you ask yourself why its nessisary to continue on.

if you want to post about how you are happy to have another core member leave, then do so elsewhere.

The only person I have ever been offended by at JW is this old fart and his passion for a car as old as he is. Its true that things like this sort of divides the regulars, but he has been asking for it for quite some time. There are people who JOKE-insult, but this guy apparently gets kicks from insults.

It is not a matter of which car is good and which one is bad, as the idea of this forum is discussion. If everyone agreed, much of the point would be lost. I never tried to dictate anything (unlike Redneck Castro here). I am not saying I acted 100% correct, but I am 100% sure this guy has uneased more members than I have.

He tries to point out that I post without thinking and then goes as far as saying I was one of the causes Dan left. Then, its the Bolivian "illegal alien" that doesnt do his research right? Im fed up with him, not with JW. So him leaving will make JW even better for me. Sorry if this makes other users dislike me, but I rather argue in the forum instead of flame unlike him. That right there is the difference between my anti-American-car comments vs RC's anti-Bolivian-PERSON ones.

It isn't arrogance. Arrogant would be comparing his departure with me leaving and saying I'd be more missed (which is something I'd never do). I think much of my "happiness" from his departure might be due to his racial issues and other-member thrashing. Bashing on me about car topics is one thing, but being so idiotic as to randomly throw out insults everywhere and accuse me of things I did not goes overboard.

@everso - Thankfully, I am not alone.

@666fast - thats exaclty how I feel, and it's exaclty what RC lacked for as long as I can remember. I can't think of anyother member that posted so much insults as he did. Heck, I am sure he is reading all of my 6k posts to get back at me with Thesaurus-worded insults to hide the 8-year-old bashing child he has inside him. My insulting only came after his, not that it changes anything, but I just want it to make it clear (even though it must already be) that I dont normally act this way.

Even if I did do wrong in posting out of context, that is 1 error made by me, vs the 12,000 ones you did in all your posting.
Now you have taken up insulting Jabba - you don't think if any of those 12,000 was really over the line he would not have stepped in?

Maybe you and a few others are the only ones who took them personally and out of the "character" context they were made in.

Ever think about that?


As to hairy backed guys, thats so creative you know, especially since you dont know me and still make assumptions.

It's not an assumption - it is an out of context caustic insult - or also known as a "comeback"

Dont think I am the only one who violated those rules as you insulted more people than just me. I insulted you in the "comeback" way. In no way did I insult Jabba and you know it. There is something called "free speech" which is what you always implement on your typing. If you cant remember what you type, re-read your posts. You'll see how often you end up insulting people who think different than you.

For a student of english you sure take things literally.

Let me explain the "insult Jabba" comment. I made 12000 posts. If they were in any way over the line, Jabba would never have let them go on. SO - you suggesting that there were 12,000 unmoderated posts all full of insults is a slight on Jabba for letting it happen.

Is that kind of complex idea beyond you?

And again - insulting Jabba - I mena he must be a fool for letting mne get away with it.

Ever think maybe you lack the english reading comprehension to fully understand the context and character of those 12,000 posts - and take literal insult from them when none is intened?

I understood perfeclty your 12000 post and Jabba issue. He did not ban you because not all your posts were insults. I guess you, too, took things literally didnt you? Im sure not ALL of your posts were insults, but many were.

As for english, I basically had 1st grade all the way to 12th of it. All courses were tought in it so I think my english is far better than you credit it for. English comprehension isnt what I lack. What I lack is what every member here does, reading the rules

Ok - lets say only 6,000 were blatant insults - you still think he would just let it go?

I think not.

Agin - maybe it's only you that interpretted them that way - management sure didn't.

Wow - now you insult TT, Fishfreakand Dan (while he was around) and Jabba... you really think if your interpretation is accurate they would have all let it slide?

so basically after reading all 4 pages of this thread i think that EVERYONE should calm down a bit and actually think about this. RC45 you are a good guy no need being worked up over an internet flame war i mean youre the one who actually made me appreciate american cars. remember that post a LONG time back with the images of the Ford GT. and how i said it was "just" a Ford GT? well since then ive seen a lot more GT's and i mean i actually appreciate them now. i stared at one for the longest time when i saw one here in Bellevue (first one sold :wink: ). also for more examples take the Shelby Cobra GT500 (new and old), the new Z06 (i think it looks brilliant and it performs good too) etc. so just remember the stuff you posted does have a lot of meaning and it does make an impact. i wish you would stay but i cant force you just reconsider because you do make a difference.

Ok so magically, out of posting one link on your wonderful thread, I managed to insult all management! Wow, nice attempt to make me feel bad (did not work). For your knowledge, I was asked to be an Admin at one point, but I refused because I couldnt spend nearly enough hours as the great TT. And BTW, your posts CONTAINED insults, they were NOT 100% insults. While many could be interpreted as jokes, most were not. That, you can clearly see from the responces you got from the people you degraded.

If your intentions are to make me leave aswell, it wont happen. I am too attached to JW. It's the only forum I read and it will stay that way.

Anyway, did you miss your bus? or are you waiting for tears? This sure is the longest departure ever. Type whatever else you want. I wont respond anymore. Surely, you want me to break a rule and be the one to blamed for your oh-so-sad departure. If you are going to leave then good, if you are going to stay, hopefully you learned a thing or two about tolerance.

Sorry to hear of your decision RC, you've definitely given this American thread a unique taste and i've always appreciated that. I know you appreciate more than just American cars, but when your forced into a corner of constant defense of your personal favorite; i understand you kind of have to pull out all the guns, even bashing other auto makers. I doubt you would, or at least i hope you wouldn't, if the rest of the world didn't have a grudge against a cheap interior. It's a bloody interior, if the drive can make you smile from cheek to cheeck, then get over it. I realized this when i found out how cheap, the oh so king of interiors, VW could be. It's all still plastic, but it is designed to look better, thats all. But i appreciated how it drove and how well it executed itself on the highway.
I just never understood why car buffs can't appreciate the little things each and every car has to offer, even a crappy 95 Civic hatch with 80hp offers (my beater for now). I can heel toe in it, and i haven't been able to do that in any car yet, so i'll always appreciate it for that, and even the grunty sounds that engine makes when it struggles to get to the redline in first for about 8 seconds :lol: .
Point is, everyone can have a favorite (Sagaris or AMV8 for me), but just learn to respect the shittiest of cars, they all have their character that you should always remember even it isn't a good one. But as a car buff, i'll always find something fond to remember about every car i've driven, even a (no interior) 95 hatch.

I'll miss ya RC, good luck with all your endeavors!

OMFG this is what happens when I am away for too long. I guess I just thought everyone was going to be here forever, well at least the core members of the community that is.

Its my worst nightmare really as RC45 and DeMon are both members that I would do just about anything for as both have done so much for me and JW in the past.

Surely JW is big enough for you to both co-exist without you having to cross swords daily. I would be totally gutted to see either of you leave after all this time.

Let me know guys if theres anything I can do to try and sort this ugly mess out and get things back on track.

All I can ask in the mean time is that you re-consider your position RC45 as tomorrow is another day and its never too late to sort these sort of things out, I just regret that I haven't had much time lately to be able to do just that.

This is closure from my part: In my defense, the "core member" issue was exactly what made me hold back and not reply in a rude manner everytime that guy posted crap dissing Europeans and adoring American (or insulting people who think different than him). I even took in some punches in hope he'd see he did wrong and learn on his own. I mentally pressed the "ignore" button you talk about assuming he was having a bad day and would get better next day. Well, that did not happen, so I just couldnt hold back any longer. Im not saying his posts weren't informative, just that he was rude too often to my (and others from what I read) liking. I dont want to bring back the fire, hopefully everything settles down.

Ok so, peace, I'm outs of this thread.
