Is there any way we can make this a Sticky?

I realize that it does not qualify in any way, but it is worthy.

At the drop of a hat, a thread that was wack, caused op's nuts to shrink up into his sack.

Noob slayers came out the wood work, OP got butt hurt so he ran away while fixing his skirt. This was a tale of a young male so please future members don't copy his fail. This thread has some good bits and really funny *****, but like the good Syner said...WHERE THE FCK ARE THE ****???"

i remeber going onto the tiburon forums (coming from pushrod v8s) and asking for help...stating i came from a pushrod backround and where to start learning....and just getting torn to shreds.

ill say though on this forum...people tend to not read the whole question or statement before answering. i remeber asking about the limits of the stock fuel pump once...and just being told i needed a new fuel pump. you know i understand that i would, but i wanted to know how much i needed it if that makes sense. i got a you need one, not people in this range run a x or a y. i know griping.
this thread, it kinda makes me think of the bmw community...where you get alot of arragont people with money that dont know, and people trying to learn, with a common response of just take it to a shop. then complaining they shoulda bought a m3 instead of a 335i or something silly.now id assume the age bracket for bmws is a bit higher....but im digressing. it seems like the group of people coming in now dont want to learn or understand they just say " give me!". instead of searching they ask about 400whp na, or clutches for their automatics....and i know ive asked dumb questions, been tired, misunderstood, remembered wrong...so on and so forth ...but Ive never been opposed to learning. if someone comes in with something legitimate ill take it in. im not an a hole, and i respect people that know more than me.

haha I feel you buddy. I started on zilvia.net when I first got a 240sx..I was flamed because I posted pics of me & my car.(240sx kouki with a rb25) I was 16 and people didn't take me seriously. I always try to help noobs out but I hate seeing kids ricing out Z's. They make us look bad.. I figure that if your new to cars do a little research before posting because you shouldn't even attempt to work on a car without knowing the basics. This site isn't bad tho. We're just having some fun.. That way noobs learn and start doing some research.

+1. My first forum was CarDomain. I got ripped like a 13 year old Cambodian virgin. Not only that, but was banned twice before getting perma banned. But that taught me forum etiquette. Came on here with no hitches. It's a learning curve...
