ATTN: All Of YOU!

[simontibbett]

Lets see here, first off, unless you know me, you cannot talk about how I act. I joke around in person, do you all cry then too? I NEVER said I am the best driver, I was kidding with Dopengagonme, my car is a 1.6 with bolt ons, he has boost. If I had an equal car then I would talk real ****. But this is a fun hobby for me, I was going to run ITA, now am doing some Skippy series events next year, and some time trials. My car is a track rat, I could care less what you all think about it, you aren't the driver, or the one working on it, everything is there to get the job done, which is be reliable, quick, and fun. It does all with ease.

As for the constant PM's from mods, stop, it's annoying. Don't tell me not to do something and when I do you do what you said not to. That makes sense. Is this a little communist Miata group? New rules: NO JOKING, NO LAUGHING, EVERYONE IS EQUAL, NOBODY IS GAY DON'T SAY THOSE WORDS!

If you really want to stop drama maybe you should go after people who CAUSE it. Maybe by posting hot sexy nudes of me on here, that causes drama, or maybe the *****es who come into every thread I make or every post and either start it through kidding about a previous thread, saying I am a cheap bastard, a prick, etc. NO WAY IN ******* HELL a thread on COILOVERS should start DRAMA. GROW THE **** UP. It was a good discussion about why people like them and don't. NOBODY can change anyones mind obviously, it didn't get bad until people started calling people names and generalizing saying people are poor for trying to save money.

Some things are ridiculous, a picture thread, someone asked if they had pics of their car, I asked the color and something else, and people get pissy over that..lol...really?

So I guess I will ONLY post if I have the same parts you do, am scared to laugh, and can't take jokes? I'm confused. lololol.

[jesseealexander]

ibtl. and preparing for epic thread. lol

[MeFryRice]

It will not be an epic thread as everyone will stop adding fuel to the fire. As far as I'm concerned, Simon stated what he wanted and we'll leave it at that. No need to continue arguing like we're in Jr. High still.

[simontibbett]

Exactly, so as long as we are all clear, from now on, unless you want to start drama, you know what to do members.

[RotorNutFD3S]

I have no arguments to add, I just want this **** to be over with so I can stop cleaning up the bull**** in all the threads.

Simon, what I'm about to say is only my perceptiongs of what's going on, take it as you will. Your method of joking is not well-recieved, as you can plainly see by the problems that have arisen in the past few days. Coupled with the fact that people are getting tired of you whoring out the forum and acting all ricer with your "WHAZZ YOUR RIDE DAWG?!". Joking and poking fun at people is ok, we've been doing that since day 1, but when you come across like you are truly serious in all aspects, it's not going to be taken as joking. That's mainly why we have those little things called smileys. No one can see you laughing from behind your screen/keyboard. And when most of the fingers are pointed at you, you can pretty much tell where the problem is.

Oh, and as a last thought, there are only two admins and no mods, when we see something that isn't right, we'll call that person out on it. Guess what? That's our place to do so, don't tell us to stop, that's not your place. You'll find an abrupt end if that's the route you decide to take. Along with acting like you moderate the forum direction.

as a relative outsider, ive gotten the impression lately that alot of people on here are acting like a bunch of kids.

also if some of this stuff had been happening on a board i mod, i wouldve banned you all long ago

take that how you will

[simontibbett]

I would have too lol...along with about 4 other people

[RotorNutFD3S]

I would have too lol...along with about 4 other people

FYI, you're asking people to stop acting a certain way, but you're opening the door by posting stuff like that.

[simontibbett]

?? I agreed saying I probably would have banned myself and the others causing the issues, then there couldn't be any...and I wrote lol to make sure everyone knew it was meant in friendly way.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Ok. Misunderstood. My apologies. You have to add "myself included" or something. You know what you're saying/thinking, how others interpret it can only be done by what's directly in front of them on their screen. Which is also a huge player in this whole mess.

And let me say this, I really like this forum, and I'd like the opportunity to get to meet everyone on it someday, pre-all this, everyone seemed cool as hell. A Georgia-wide meet would be something really awesome someday, but I don't want to have to go to a meet dreading the fact that someone who I don't want to deal with on the internet is going to be there, as I'm sure other people don't want that. So, along the lines with this thread, let's cut the ****, get back to what we were so capable of having originally, which is a great forum.

[Doppelgänger]

I'll admit I probably didn't help the situation out, but i will apologize to all other MX5Atl members (not the op) for having to read some of my posts, but i'm simply not one of those people who just standby and not say anything. Many of you know my outside this forum and know i'm not really like that, which should be a good thing.

There is an obvious line between knowing when to cut up and clearly whoring/bumping post count/bumping old posts/antagonizing other members, and that line had obviously been crossed on multiple occasions and comments that were clearly aimed at people that should not have been. It's also clear that it wasn't just 1 or 2 people who were getting annoyed with what was going on, which is a clear sign that someone knew what they were doing and how it was effecting other forum members, both active in those threads and people just browsing. Posting up a thread cursing everyone out isn't exactly a tactical way to make things any better either or is telling people what to do in a rather crass manor. If you really see a problem with what happened, swollow your price, and accept that you might just have to simply apologize. Also, "LOL" doesn't make everything ok all the time....

[simontibbett]

Well I don't sit around and not reply either, so me + you = failure lol.

I'll say sorry for continuing an e-battle, just as you did the same. I won't say sorry for making threads that I did not think would end up so harsh. I also won't say sorry for talking back to people who are rude to me, call me broke, say something I want to do is stupid, etc. Which you did, and a couple of others.

EDIT: By the way what exactly do you call whoring? If I post in every thread that's not whoring. That's just being bored. I could care less what my post count is why would that matter????

I don't think it's funny at all.

personally, i'm not looking for an apology from anyone..especially on threads that were created to clearly cause a rise out of people.

You just contradicted yourself. Running through every sub-forum "because you're bored" and posting irrelevant replies is "postworing" and you know it, on top of it being common sense. If you're that bored, go be bored elsewhere.

[simontibbett]

I usually write real replies, or start real threads. You usually get on a forum to talk to people and stuff, like when you are bored. But that's all opinionated.

I'm sorry you don't think that's funny, but two people who act the same obviously will have a bad outcome in an argument.

This thread was obviously not trying to get an up rise...

[RotorNutFD3S]

Mike beat me to the post, but dredging up threads that have been idle for a while simply with an "lol" or something completely pointless and/or that does not add value to the thread is post whoring.
