I think the forum's become over run with useless polls. (Just messin' with ya.)
But seriously, when you're one of the largest sites for info on our car, it's only natural that other people will show up to check it out. And with the nonZ owners, come a small amount of trolls, who are trolls no matter what site they're on.

do you suggest we ban everyone that isnt in love with the z?
i think a volley of attacks on eachothers cars is rather entertaining sometimes. its all just friendly fighting.

Example: The Honda Civic that blew by my on a highway not very long ago. He must have thought I was racing him or something, because he turned on his flashers after he passed. Now I know he's told all his little Civic buddies that he beat a Z, but that's a pretty easy thing to do when I WASN'T EVEN TRYING! LOL

The only reason it's friendly is because of the miles of phone lines seperating us. If it wasn't for that, this would be the WWF. I could be wrong, but i thought this site was meant to be a source of information.
I don't suggest a ban of everyone that doesn't love the Z, but i'd like to see some kind of standard of etiquette enforced.

I noticed how uncluttered the site was with trash-talking. I dunno, maybe i just caught it on a good day. But it made me wonder why my350z.com couldn't be just as civil.
Try it out. Post anything about "350z beats 'insert any car here' ". Watch what happens. That's the kind of thing i'm talking about. I just think it's gotten a little out of hand.

There is already 20+ thousand members at this site.. pretty good for a car that is only a few months old.
With that many people, you are bound to attract haters. Let them shout all they want IMO. Beat them on the street, not on the board.
I love my car. But at the same time i want to know what other people think about it, likes or dislikes.
There are people that do not like lamborghinis. There are people who hate just to hate, and argue just for the sake of argueing.
I think you are taking some stuff too seriuosly. I make fun of my friends ss camaro all the time to his face and he openly returns the favor on my car. We are both just having fun at each others expense. Ive got a ricer and hes got a poor mans (aka mullet mans) corvette.
If you dont like what is being said just dont read it. I just dont want to see this site become "over regulated". As soon as this place becomes communistic I will leave.
Life is too short to complain about silly stuff like this. ( yeah i know its to short for me to be complaining about your complaining )
oh well your opinion is yours so do what you will with it

No, worse. I posted how I lost to a camaro by a carlength (while he had a passenger) and I got trolled on by these complexed individuals that need to go out and get laid once in a while but are apparently unsure about their short ground wire
I was told that the guy must have been playing with me, and that I was having a "wet dream."
Very out of hand.

Just ignore em. Its not as if they can do any real damage. If you see something, just report it to a mod. Best thing to do in the mean time is ignore the post. Nothing enrages a troll more than not being acknowledged!
