View Full Version : tried and failed
Tried to find a forum on the RX8..Filled with OPEN MINDED people..With knowledge to share and humor in many things...
Failed found a forum with stuck up extremely biased and rude people...Note: not all are bad but a few really suck...some just can't seem to take things lightly...
I guess I joined the forum to early..Not owning an RX8 just yet and trying to find out everything possible about the car and the people who drive them....I hope you all enjoy your cars....And see ya on the road..till then Peace:cool:
mikeb 11-18-2003, 07:34 PM I dislike some people on the forum
but I love my car and info on it so I stay
brothervoodoo 11-18-2003, 07:38 PM Hi Geek, as forums go this is pretty benign compared to many. This is the best forum about the 8 too.
carnut 11-18-2003, 10:47 PM Stay with us, Geek. This is the only forum I contribute to and regularly look at. I think nearly all of us will try to be helpful. I didn't own an 8 when I first joined -- I had put down a deposit though. :)
You know if all the members were like you guys...I would stick around...but the select few are complete A$#HOLES....I will probally keep reading..but no more posting...Thanks for the support....
Don't worry about it. In a year or so most of the uptight owners will have sold their 8's and moved on to something new.
Omicron 11-19-2003, 12:26 AM The a$$holes are mostly trolls. Ignore them, and they will eventually get shriller and shriller till they get banned. Stick with us Geek, you've got a lot to contribute.
Use the ingore button - that's what it's for.
If the general thread interests you and someone on your ignore list contributes - you can alway open up the post if you wish.
Anonymous people behave strangely sometimes, but there are people on this forum that do have a very obvious anti-RX8 agenda.
djmano 11-19-2003, 01:54 AM it's all just talk on an internet forum. take light to anything that's said on the board and if it is truly useful take hold of it otherwise leave it be and forget it was ever spoken.
Elara 11-19-2003, 07:51 AM Geek, if someone is being a jerk for no reason, you can always report them, or just bug a mod about it. We try to make sure everyone's generally pleasant, but we miss things sometimes. Stick around a bit- it really is a nice place.
Texas 8 11-20-2003, 02:03 PM I just joined myself not too long ago. Even with all the useless S**t and name calling I still think it has a wealth of info to offer. Especially to someone like myself who is in the process of purchasing an 8. This has some very informative topics that you really can't get anywhere else.
I would like to personally thank the individual(s) responsible for starting the RX8 Club!!
Texas 8 --soon to be, that is:-)
Evil Weevil 11-20-2003, 02:07 PM Hey, Geek - have a look at www.rx8ownersclub.co.uk . We're a right-friendly bunch. We're only just getting our first batch of cars over here, so many of us are in the same situation as you.
allstate 11-20-2003, 05:10 PM Geek,
I just counted 11 post of people trying to help and encourage you to "stick with us." You have to agree that a bunch jerks would not do this. Most of us here are friendly and can have mature discussions, even when we disagree with each other. Please stick around and things will turn around.
got 8 11-20-2003, 06:06 PM You have got to check out my posting, I get clubed left and right and I am still here.:confused:
mikeb 11-20-2003, 06:13 PM ya,
some of these people are animals
I posted my last car got stolen and most people responded well it's ugly anyways
Hayseed 11-20-2003, 08:59 PM There's a funny mix on this forum, but I am actually amazed by the thoughtful tenor of most posts. There's a *lot* of really useful information about the RX-8 and some discussions in the Lounge that are sure to satisfy evem the intellectuals among us (not that I would claim that status). Yeah, there are some jerks, but I'm not about to let them ruin it for me. I'm new to forums, but after following and finally joining this one I've looked around at some others. IMHO, this has to be among the best out there.
Thank you all for the support..I think I just might stick around thanks....
