View Full Version : Fanboi awards nominations!
We've had the troll awards. I think it's time for the fanboi poll to be put up! So put your nominations in, who do you think is most blinded by their love for the RX-8 that they would dismiss every other car on the planet just because they think the RX-8 is the best automobile on the planet?
My nomination goes to Truemagellen. So who do you think should be in the poll?

Speed-ER doc 04-15-2005, 01:50 AM I would say scorp76, but he doesn't seem to post here anymore.
And you snuck an edit in before the minute was up, you scoundrel.

I didn't edit it, all that hp must be corrupting your brain :p My second nomination goes to Cas2themoe. I fully agree with Scorp76 but he hasn't been around much and is most likely posting under another screen name like Rotario ;) Same goes for Russellp who is probably under another name in these forums as well ;)

Really, he seems like more of a harmless lounge lizard to me.
HiTMaNN 04-15-2005, 02:09 AM Some of the ppl who post in the rx-8 disscussion pages are all pro rx8s and nothing else

Names, we need names!
HiTMaNN 04-15-2005, 02:25 AM Pritch, ohio rx-8, idiots like rodrigo67 who go on to other car forums and defend their own car... like who the hell cares what 350 or s2000 owners think of our cars. And then they bitch when the 350 ppl MAKE MORE Fun of the car. Like ive seen it a s2k guy comes here says something and than gets booed out. Its the mentality of a owner of a car you defend even though it sucks ass. Think of what it feels like waking up to a civic everyday.
hotpot 04-15-2005, 02:32 AM You're out of your mind? I don't talk about the 8 anymore on the forum. The honeymoon period has been over for a while now. I think the 8 is a great car but I don't think it's that great, as a fanboi would think.

Just throwing your name out there, I wouldn't vote for you. <shrug>
How about -=Rowdy=- ?

Speed-ER doc 04-15-2005, 09:55 AM Apophis (http://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php?p=654271&postcount=331). He actually LIKES the lack of low end torque. He mentioned it several times :p
Actually, I LIKE the lack of low end torque. Let those who can't deal drive something else. Let the kids run their tricked out Evo's and Sti's into light poles. Let the horsepower whores spin their tires and drool over car magazine numbers. Let the nameplate snobs spend 20 minutes in the parking lot trying to figure out which of the 330 silver 330i's is theirs. In the meantime, I'll be driving my 8, weaving through traffic and hugging canyon curves. Leave the RX-8 for the drivers. Not the racers, not the posers, the drivers.
You know what? I REALLY like the lack of low end torque.
I'm tempted to remove my nomination however, upon review of his later posts. He is quite complimentary of the Mustang. This post (http://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php?p=827963&postcount=31) causes me to want to leave him, but don't put him on the final list unless he is seconded:
I think I'd look at the Vette, M3 and SLK 55 but there's a really good chance I'd still find myself sitting in the 8. I mean, it's an unpretentious sports car with a back seat. How can you do better? (ahem.....Cobra?) :)
DARKMAZ8 04-15-2005, 10:07 AM My vote goes to Rotario!!!

oh wait...this is an RX-8 fanboi discussion? Oh sorry! I thought this was a USA fanboi discussion :)
Blaaz 04-15-2005, 10:41 AM How 'bout some of the kids? Jaison.
Ellar 04-15-2005, 11:15 AM The question should be asked on another car forum. Find an active forum dedicated to a car that costs $6000 less than the 8, look for an 8 owner that reads the forum religiously every day, "keeping the * owners honest" about the capabilities of the less expensive car compared to the 8, and there you have your fanboi.
Like Ike, but with a sense of style.

Hmmm, does this call for a nomination?
Ellar 04-15-2005, 12:20 PM Hehe - not being a fanboi. I just think the thread is a bit mean-spirited, pointless, sure to cause bad feelings between members, and originally posted by someone who shouldn't be calling any kettles black. Carry on...
:)
BlueEyes 04-15-2005, 12:27 PM This is too funny. We got all of them that I could think of.

It's in the same spirit as the troll awards. If the people that are nominated can't take a joke and laugh at themselves then they should lighten up. I take being called a troll in stride, I just don't see how this is any different.

There is always the possibility I left my sense of humor in my other pants this morning. ::shrug::
Any final nominations before the poll goes up?
No More Oldsmobiles 04-15-2005, 02:33 PM Is it just for RX-8s? Not Oldsmobiles?
You can be the official RX-8 Club Oldsmobile fanboi if you like, something tells me you won't get much competition :p
JM1FE 04-15-2005, 03:32 PM rx8wannahave
*DING* I win! :D
