Exclamation Allow me to apologize....

Allow me to apologize to everyone I might have offended earlier this evening in the last post that I created. I didn't know the rules at the time, and I overreacted to my thread being shut down (as well as being grammaticaly corrected). This is a great site, with a ton of good information that I would like to become part of, as I just bought my RX8 2 days ago.

Again, my apologies, especially to Abbid as it was primarly directed towards him. He didn't deserve the attitude I gave him before, and I do feel bad about. For some reason, I took offense to something that wasn't supposed to be offensive, which fueled off my short temper. Not that that's an excuse.

I look forward to dealing with all of you in the future. The RX8 is the best car I've ever driven hands down, and it would be great to discuss the car with the other RX8 owners on this forum. I will also read the FAQ sheet above, and make sure I follow the rules of this board.

Again, my apologies, and I hope the members and adminstrators of the board forgive me. I was an idiot, and for the most part you guys seem like a great group of people.

Thanks for stepping up to the plate. You got off to a rocky start, but your apology should go a long way to a fresh start.

Thanks. I appreciate the feedback.

I know that Abbid is not online. Any way to reach him so he knows I apologized to him?

Husky, you got pretty mad pretty fast yesterday......being a Friday and all. I'm glad you apologized...it was the mature thing to do. You made the right choice by starting over with us and not leaving pissed off.....they're a lot of knowledgeable people here to help.

Now, about you being a Husky fan

Now enjoy! theres possibly more than you want to know about this car, on these forums. like.. did you know where is 2 electrical devices in the dips of the rear seats that create opposing waves that cancel out any vibrations! how pimp is that!

lol, I didn't know that......seriously? Wow, the engineers who made this car really put a lot of effort into making it one of the most technologically advanced cars out there. Unless you're just kidding, in which you can definitely label me as gullable.

Thank you for accepting my apology, abbid. I was stupid and juvenile, and immature with my comment before. Sometimes a computer can create feelings much like road rage.....you're by yourself typing, no one can see you, and you just let your emotions fly because there are very little consequences. I will make sure I work on this in the future, and I definitely respect you for handling my comment the way you did and not responding back to me the same way.

As for those who don't accept my apology, I'll do my best over the next couple of weeks / months to become an integral part of this forum to regain feelings of mutual respect. And I don't blame you for not forgiving me, but hopefully in time it will all be forgotten.

lol. UConn Husky fan. A lot of people think Washington, but I live in Connecticut and UConn is my alma mater. I graduated 3 years ago, and I'm still obsessed with college basketball. Never miss a game.

Who do you like? Don't say Duke or North Carolina.......

Hey, takes guts to admit a mistake and humble yourself for an apology. Welcome to the club. You will find yourself spending way more time on this site that you should

A lot of people think that.....Uconn absolutely blows in football (only our 4th year in D-1A) so while I support the football team, I'm not diehard.

Michigan, huh? Supposed to be pretty good this year (#15 in the ESPN preseason poll). I'm looking forward to watching the Notre Dame - Michigan game this year. Also, the size of that stadium is HUGE. Didn't you guys recently break the world record of people fit into a stadium (over 100,000, right)?

Thanks a lot, I appreciate it. And yeah, I do have an addictive personality. I used to spend literally 5 hours a day when I was obsessed with car audio at www.caraudioforum.com . Then my hearing started to get fuzzy, so I switched my addiction to performance. Definitely picked the right car, as no other car I've ever driven provides nearly as many thrills.

I don't think we're going to be very good this year......I predict a 3 loss season.....but next year I predict National Champs. The Big House is being renovated over the next couple of years to add suites like some of the more modern stadiums. We break the 110,000 mark for every home game and many times over 112,000. I think with the renovation the Big House might actually be reducing some capacity....not sure though.

It always seems like most schools have either great basketball or great football and rarely both.

U of Mich. should be found in the Top 5. If it isn't in the Top 10, it is a throw away year.
