Check this site out:
www.speedmagazine.com
Check out the maturity of the people on there? Do we really need to deal with that? I don't know about you, but I hope there is no kill section. It is a breeding ground for nonsense, lies, flames, and just crap we can all live without.

I like the idea, however, with the level of immature posts it's bound to turn to boo boo. :-(

That being said, I really like the idea of a kill section NOT because I would ever post there, but because it separates those types of posts into an area that I can choose NOT to visit.
Yeah, this is mostly what I was getting at - people that don't want to see it won't have to (and people that want to post kills won't get flamed for doing so).

And yes, it might get immature at times, but when things get out of hand, deleting threads and banning users usually proves to be very effective.

Bad idea; only promotes lying and unsafe driving.

After all, how many variations on a kill could you have?

"Z beats Insert Car Here!!!"

"Ran into Insert Car Here on Insert Road Here. My Z had Insert Your Modifications Here so I'm pushing out Insert Estimated HP (multiplied by 1.5) Here and I think he had Insert His/Her Modifications Here he revved his engine, and I shifted into Y gear and floored it! I started to pull away from the Insert Car Here at Insert Speed Here!!! He looked pretty pissed because his girl was in the car!! I am so pumped now!!

Alternatively, the prior paragraph may be entered in all caps or boldface type.


This forum is far too mature for that garbage.

Smile "Z beats Insert Car Here!!!"

You forgot to misspell anything, use a double negative or two, and just generally ignore every rule of grammar.
Had you done that, it would have been DEAD on.

IMO, a kills section would encourage street racing, which is a bad thing IMO. Aside from risking the public's safety, more claims will = higher ins. rates for all owners.

Make a track day forum so you can boast about how the Z does against all the other cars on a road course...that's its natural environment, and a much safer, more acceptable one at that.
Well said.
