That is too damn funny and so true.I'm on a couple different forums
for different cars and they are just like this! Bunch of blowhards
who get so off topic it hurts. Not like this forum at all.....

Your tongue wouldn't happened to be in the vicinity of your cheek, would it Matt?
:P
It's indeed... Odd how some forums are so caustic and while others, despite obvious differences, are so great. This list is of only three I've been on that don't piss me off! And that first list I was on was one for a while, then it developed these problems and I finally left. Now there are only two with which I bother because both are good resources with good people.

I swear it wasn't! other than the random smart/dumb ass comments at
times - this forum is WAAAAAAAYYYYY better than the others. If I post
on my 300 Z board or my Audi board I put my flame suit on before I
press send.

It think you were being a jerk, and you should be banned... BLUSTER BLUSTER BLUSTER!
Yeah, I hear you. Well I think the smartass comments sort of allow for the "safe release" of expression without anyone seriously getting angry/offended. Seems to work here, anyway. I stayed on this board for over a year (more like two or three) when I didn't even have an XJ. Of course I always knew I'd get one eventually, but the hell if I would do that with another list! I joined and dropped two lists in that amount of time as soon as the relevant vehicle was no longer in my ownership (no names).
Is that enough sunshine blowing or should I go on :P

This list is mellow compared to some boards and other lists, I wouldnt stick around if people acted as badly here.

dude.... that should read "doesn't" piss me off, not "don't" piss me off.
you see, the particular past tense of 'do' you're trying to use modifies
'This list', which is singular. get it right, or don't post.
oh, and why do people on here insist on typing in all SMALL letters?!?!?!?
