Wow. And i get ripped.for making a general statement about people needing to learn about tire sizes. Try not to be hypocrits here. And if yall want to massage your buddies 'ego' do it in private.

I hope things change because i learn alot here but the wrath that comes with asking questions and verifying things outweighs being here. I like this to be a social place and not just a place to come and get info and leave . .02
This is a good post.

This probably isn't. I actually dont mind the banter and thought it was funny. just using it as an example. But many dont like it.
I may have told someone, harshly to do some generic research, but i usually make a general statement. Not a personal attack.

Agreed. Has a tendency to be rude and crass. Does not attempt to build rapport.

Let me make a statement here as I was one of the persons who basically told you you were being an ***.

It is NOT about what you said. I even said it in my post.... you were RIGHT that people need to know or at least learn about tire sizing. It was totally HOW it was delivered.

And, you were right about needing to research. Again, calling people "god damn noobs" is/was an a$$hole callout.

So, like I inferred with my analogy about schoolkids, you seem like you're knowledgeable about relevant topic matter, you just needed to work on the delivery semantics.

Let me further explain that what I said, how I said it, why I said it, had NOTHING to do with anger. It was/is more in saying something to EVERYONE that this petty sh*t has no reason to be on the forum and if you're gonna play, play nice (or at least as civil as the people you're trying to talk with and ignore the buttwipes.)

Your last posts seem reasonable enough so, stay cool and contribute what you know or ask what you need to know.

Cheers,

Mic

I only use this site to browse parts and get technical information from sticky'd threads. This site has gone down the *******, sad to say.

There are still some members here I really like. I never used to post much when I had my first 350 years back because I didn't have a job that allowed me to browse on here. It kills time, plus majority of my knowledge is on the 350Z. I'm not accepted anywhere else .

Continue to be amazed at the number of posts here with electronic problems--from ECM issues to horns that won't quit--large or small, it seems endless. The Z33 is equipped with a sophisticated diagnostic system, but many would rather go to an internet board asking for answers. This is only going to get worse as new owners decide they know how these incredibly engineered cars really work and start screwing them up.

Now that I'm down to "only two" Zs and very possibly down to one soon to put more time into my other projects (and my cars are where I want them to be), will probably pull back from posting here even more. It's just numbing to read all the downer threads...
