I think new people when they show up and they want to ask a question, it is the same question that has been asked maybe yesterday. People are not doing research, all I have to say "fukk man" google it!

I know people will always ask the same questions over and over again, but if I ask them to search for the 100s of threads already cover on the forum, they might remember to try and do this first next time and ask educated questions about it in those threads they find, or atleast start a thread that states "what exhaust sounds best" "what gears to get" or "what is a CAI/tune"
I never mean to "flame" anyone but hopefully it help gets new and more accurate questions about topics that will help more people.

What about the debate regarding"Posers"? Personally, I feel that it's your car, do what you want. If someone else was paying for your mod, then they would have a say in what you attached to your car. Opinions are fine, especially when a member directlyrequests them, but I don't think it's necessary to bash someone or berate them for attaching an emblem that does'nt properly represent the car. I would'nt do it myself, but I won't impose my belief on someone who is determined to do it.

Yeah,
Poser vs. Tribute
Functional hood scoop vs. Non Functional hood scoop
Stick on hood pins vs. drill in hood pins
20's vs. 17's
lowered vs. stock
Flows vs. everything....
The list goes on and on. Part of the issue with internet, or E Mail, is that the person reading the post cannot tell from the inclination in a person's voice what their actual intent is. Big problem for those of us that spend countless hours on E Mail at work every day.....
Also, and this is not a "Code 4", by any means, but I think the age differential plays a major role. To Tony's point, those of us that have "been there done that" in our younger years of chest puffing competition, can let the percieved negative posts slide off much more easily. Both here, and in life. But, inject some of that young testosterone into the mix, and it can get dicey......Bad thing? Not necessarily. It's just the way things are. I would rather keep my mouth shut, and be thought a fool, than open my mouth, and remove all doubt......

You forgot the "I'm 16 years old and my parents bought me a new Mustang GT" or "I'm 16 and I'm a great driver and can handle a Mustang GT" and the ever popular "I'm 16, I live at home, I drive a Mustang GT, my parents pay for the car and my insurance...but, but, but, I buy my own gas!!!"
Always makes for good reading....
