Ian Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 The same thing would happen on 99% of other forums. It just seems that a lot of people on here are itching to take offence to something so they can have a moan Quote
taffyjason Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 its always easy to hide behind a PC and have a go at people you'll likely never see, it seems to make superheroes out of people, face to face i think they'd consider what they'd say to people Quote
Bobbyheinz Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 This forum makes me laugh. It's not the busiest forum in the world by a long shot and yet we have all these long standing members who seem to be doing their best to frighten off new members. At the end of the day, the busier the forum, the more traders we'll attract and the more dosh we can save on maintenance and modding. In all honesty I think there's some degree of perceived elitism amongst a few... Quote
B3n5253 Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Not surprised by the astra win. I had a stage 3 Astra nurburgring edition. I done it from stock and it was running around 300hp. Very quick in a straight line. It was a lovely car. Cost quite a few penny's but it was a little weapon! Quote
taffyjason Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 until i win the lottery, im not going to be knight rider in my Zed! Quote
ddcboyle Posted August 4, 2012 Author Posted August 4, 2012 Lol i hardly expected a ferrari, i just expected more power from a car that sounds and looks like a beast. But much agreeing on the "comments from behind a PC" lol. Many keyboard gangsters on this place haha. Although "it would be the same on any other forum", im on 4 forums atm, one of them is full of these topics since they bought a sports car to get the most out of a sports car. The topic was not "i got beat by a hatchback :bang:" , it was a discussion about what it could have had to beat a 350z (i know, not a ferrari), i didnt buy a 350z to drive it like a diesel focus or sit in a garage lol. I know theres plenty of people who will frown at the "drive it like a diesel" as you now that means removing the brick from behind ur acceleration pedal. Quote
Ricey Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 I have to be honest and say I genuinely did think you were joking after the Cupra thread Quote
ddcboyle Posted August 5, 2012 Author Posted August 5, 2012 Lol probably the way i went into my story mode, i need to keep my sentances short. Like "i got beat by a hothatch, please comment with negetivity" Quote

Neilp Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 Ive not seen anybody be aggressive on this thread at all so think referring to people as keyboard warriors is a bit out of place. All this is just a discussion. I will quit plainly put it on paper that I certainly am not a keyboard warrior and travel south regularly for meets. So if anybody has issues with me feel free to voice them Quote
