RE: Soaring and others
Concerning the other thread, Soaring did give fair notice before locking. others then agreed it should be locked. Anyone that was around a month or so ago knows that this subject of concourse vs. restomod is like arguing catholic vs. muslim. Both believe in the same GOD and arguing will just bring upbad feelings.
Anyways, I really like the color on your car. Can you find the exact PPG number for me?

RE: Soaring and others
Derrick-
I'm behind you 100% on this. I'm of the opinion that this section of the forum is for anything to do with classic mustangs, whether it be regarding a concourse correct piece, or how to install an electronic fuel injection. As long as it pertains to classic Mustangs, it should be allowed. Unfortunatly, the moderator of this section does not see it that way, and as I have so politely been told, "this is not a democracy". Usually any thread regarding a classic Mustang modification that the moderator does not approve of gets capped with him doing some name calling and equipment bashing then the thread gets locked, moved, or even deleteted all together.
In your original thread ( https://mustangforums.com/m_3265813/tm.htm ) it was mentioned that this topic has been previsously discussed. Since you are new, it's pretty obvious that you weren't aware of that problem and shouldn't be faulted for bringing it up. Urban dictionary defines a forum troll as "Someone who gets pleasure by typing annoying/controversial/offensive words at strangers on Internet forums, for them to read" ( http://www.urbandictionary.com/defin...rm=forum+troll ). Again, you are new around here and didn't know you were bringing up a controversial topic so I don't think you fit that description.
I was part of the original discussion that was referenced and it included name calling, equipment bashing, pouting, etc. by other people who should have know better. The discussion went downhill fast last time, but my feelings (and probably others that share my opinion) have not changed; as long as the discussion is actually regarding classic Mustangs, it is unacceptable for the thread to be locked, moved or deleted. As adults we should be able to discuss this topic again without it turning ugly.
Pitch in your two cents and reply politely when asked questions. I understand if you don't reply as quickly as other people, because some of us have still have jobs and can't monitor all conversations at all times during the day. Maybe other people should learn patience instead of name calling. As far as your fear of being banned... keep your posts professional and on topic and that shouldn't happen. There are only a few people around here that have the power to out-right ban people and the moderator of this section is not one of them.

RE: Soaring and others
A troll on any forum is one who starts a controversial thread knowing it will cause the members to get into an argument and stir up trouble for the site. Then, doesn't post again, but just sits back and laughs at the ensuing arguments. I agree with Soaring on this one. He stopped it before it got completely out of hand.
