Hey RX8LOVER, chillax man. The kid just took some photos of his brand new car. He's excited! He's 19 and he has an RX-8! WTF is wrong with him taking amatuer photo's? I wasn't aware that this was a photo magazine web site? Geeeez...

this forum is FLOODED with stock RX-8 photos. The only reason people are geteting on my case is because I think he could have done a better job with his choice when he posted. Taking a close up of your brakes with (what I assume) are UNPAINTED calipers, it seems silly to me.

No, the only reason people are getting on your case is because you acted like a jerk for absolutely no reason. You didn't say
"Hey, could we get a close-up of your brakes with the unpainted calipers?" you said "you need to take a class in photography. Plus you need to get a decent camera. Your angles do the car no justice, and you shouldn't bother taking photos at night with the camera you have."

Maybe you weren't trying to be a jerk, but that's how you came across.

If I see any more of this crap, the thread gets closed (sorry eclps0).

Geez you think if enough people would post that your being a jerk you'd get the point. LEarn some humility, stop and realize your the one being an ***.

This isnt a photography forum.

you people are amazing. you make it sound like i said something like "go kill yourself - your photos could kill a newborn baby since they are so bad".

I merely said that he needs a half-way decent camera if he's gonna take photos and post them here.

Eveyone needs to just back off already.

RX8Lover,

You need to take a class in etiquette, politeness and general human decency. Plus you need to learn how to apply that in all your day-to-day matters, including time spent conversing on Internet Forums.
Your comments are rude, agressive and unjustified. You shouldn't bother posting here again until you learn how to behave like a decent human being.





Cheers for the pics eclps0. Even though you didn't post a reason for your wheels being off, it didn't take long to work out why, though a pic of the finished painted caliper wouldn't have been a bad idea

I second everybody elses thought on the rudeness of RX8lover, that's not fair man.

Oh and thanks for taking the time to post the pics.

The more the better.

RX8Lover - please readjust your rudeness filter before posting anymore. Oh and sometimes it's better to take things on the chin a bit - people tend to get on with each other a whole lot easier.

It was all the worse because it was aimed at a kid, who is really in to our car!! We need more like him to support the community!

I have to take off the wheel to get a good pic well. Well maybe it wont have rx8lovers skill with pic:D

Iim a major in special effects for movies not photography so i can care less how the pic comes in as long as its clear and i cann see the car. Also on a another note I love this car once u go zoom zoom u dont go back i was just trying to show everyone the pics of my car.Not to get critized beacuse of the camera i used.

That's your best post yet! LOL!

This is the US, eclips can post whatever he wants, 8lover can be an overly aggressive photographic critic, and none of us HAVE to read anything here.

As I have never seen any picture of the shock/spring running through the A arm, I thought it was pretty cool, if sideways.

Oh, also, 8lover, since you are a self-prescribed photo f'ing master, why not take the night photo, render it beautiful and repost it?

Better yet, why not kill this hole thread?

Not newborn babies. Kittens. You directly implied that his pictures were killing kittens. And kittens are adorable.

Seriously, though, I'm surprised no one noticed that the guy posting the pics, eclps0 AKA General Jew, is the 19-year old kid who first got flak for upgrading his Mitsu Eclipse to an Rx8 at age 19, and then later told us how some kids at school want to demolish his car (with him in it) and he may need to put the car in hiding until he goes off to college.

eclps0, you're maybe an alright guy, but on this message board you've demonstrated an uncanny talent for getting under people's skin. Maybe it's undeserved, but still... there it is.

the only thing i did was post pics

I wasn't being rude or immature its just PICS for people that want to see. I wont say there names but some people on this board should really look in the mirror and grow up already its funny a 19 year old kid acting more mature then a 15-40 year old. Also if that person doesn't like my PICS then stop clicking on the link to the thread. Think about it u might try to put me down but I can careless what some people on this board say to offend me or mock me or the PICS I take. I just laugh about it because the person that keeps making the rude and childish comments is acting like there in high school.

Well, I guess there will always be some high school bullshit I just didn't expect it here on this forum.

Also to everyone that stood up for me thank you I highly appreciate it.

what exactly is "getting under peoples skin?" the fact that he is 19, or that he loves the car, or maybe it is his grammer? I do not get it. The kid (actually young man) is proud of his car, and wants to share on a forum were people are supposed to want the same thing! I have not read one post from him that is nasty or trollish in the least. On the countrary, he is right with at LEAST one thing: people need to look at themselves.

like my pa always said, do not throw rocks if you live in a glass house.

If more kids like him were encouraged to follow healthy productive interests, instead of taking a load of crap for the sin of wanting to share and belong, then just maybe the world would be a better place. End of sermon.
