Unforrtunelty some peopel do not realize this and treat forums like it is there persoanl lockeroom. Some also treat it as though since they have been around longer then they must be right and more knowledgable.

dude the internet was founded on PORN. its not safe for kids period. supervise your kids, and prevent them from using the net. if you have daughters i guarantee they use myspace and are getting pounded by 30 year old online predators. get net nanny, but to say we should all be saints is silly on the net.. there is no law here and you should expect everything

Listen i know what im talking about im part of the 101st flyin keyboardists. if you want things your own way then start a private forum

You don't like it here, then go check out one of the moderated forums. You should be able to read all their posts and be back here in time for lunch.

Somehow my post got posted before I was finished. then I had to start over. anyway, I am not a saint and am not trying to make this an angelic site either. I just think it is hard to carry on a conversation when someone is calling the other guy stupid or if the thread gets hijacked with impish tyraids.

My edited post is one page back. And no, i do not have kids, I am all the immaturity my wife nees.

wannabeH3 03-24-2006 05:32 PM

eh im on several other forums and its just a part of being on the internet. theres always idiots posting stupid stuff, then there are instigators like me, and then there are quality posters. i think the quality people just dont get involved. but i get off on this sheeyit.. i love to see a good internet argument!

Soooooo, a thick skin is required and remember that the reason people get mad at eachother is usually because of a misunderstanding, i doubt too many people intentionally try to piss eachother off. Wrong. If someone gets mad instead of debating...well that is immature. Partially correct If you think people overreacted to your thread then maybe you were the one who took Paragons points to much to heart in the first place Correct...I don't know, I didn't read the initial thread, or even most of this one. U should.

Don't pass judgement on the forum yet...you can get a lot of good info here. Pu <span class="ev_code_RED">tit </span> (What are you really thinking about?) behind you and move on.

Oh give me a break. I think it is reasonable for a site who wants to be the authority on hummers to be a place where the average joe can go and not put up with persoanl attacks, the n, c, or f words being used. It really is not that hard. If peopel want to get off on belittleing everyone, or saying other peoples daughters are geting pounded by a 30 yr old pervert, they can go to myspace for that..

But now that I actually said something reasonable and may be percieved as against the grain....I am sure I will be told to leave and flipped off by a little cartoon as well...Which I think is funny BTW. don't dissapoint me bebe

If you go back and read my post in its entirity....after I found that it was posted early, you will see that I like a lot of the people here and was not only defending them but I told woody he needs a thicker skin.

The forum is what it is. You can't change people. So it's either deal with it or get f-cking lost. If the whiners stick around and b!tch, then they need to be prepared to be beat down and "pwned". Plain and simple.

Why do you think this is the busiest Hummer forum? If it was just a bunch of tech babble, it wouldn't get 1/10th the traffic it does. People come here for the info and stick around because its entertaining. If they don't like all the BS, there are two choices: 1) sift through it for the info you want; 2) LEAVE!

I don't care if you stick around or not. But don't expect to bitch about this forum not being what YOU want it to be without catching some sh*t for it.

If this forum was all facts, and helpful information you wouldnt have Hummer Haters like me who decided to stick around for 3+ years. Not sure if that is a good thing, or a bad thing. Just thinking out loud I guess.

PackerFever 03-24-2006 06:07 PM

ok, so I went back and read the entire thread...and Now I will never have those 10 minutes in my life back and the brain damage I recieved is irreversible.

Thank you BeBe for the cute little guy, . I think I ran over his sister this morning and let my dog chase his dad last night. I can now live the rest of my days knowing that you do think of me when I am not around, thank you.

Sorry, but that was just so far off the mark it is pathetic. Not bashing you or calling you pathetic so don't call this a personal attack. As said so well before, this is a community that continues to grow. There are more quality posts on this site everyday than all the posts on all the other Hummer forums combined. Notice I said quality posts. I am not talking about the BS posts or just plan playing around, I am talking about quality info. I came here almost a year ago to find info on the H3 after I placed my order and found out the dealer didn't know anything. I have stuck around because of both the quality information as well as the entertainment. You really need to go back and completely read both threads though. (guess you did as I was typing this)

x100

Open discussions are what makes this place interesting. Without it, you're left with the lowest common denominator...vanilla posts. And if that's what you want, then there's already a bunch of those out there.

ShaggyX 03-24-2006 06:41 PM

1797 is the most replies that I see after doing a 1/2 a$$ed search. Dont think this thread will ever get to that point.

PackerFever 03-24-2006 06:42 PM

I agree that there is good info here and have said as much.

I also think it is fine that this is a community...I have met many people from the other site I help run and have become friends with many of them over the years. But the way we deal with the "off topic suff" is by having a seperate area for smack. For example, the People who really want to talk about the team have an area to do that. Those who want to talk about other things and bitch slap eachotehr go to a diffeent part o fthe forum...works great there. That site had over 2000 members before we udgraded the sofware and booted out the ones who hadn't posted for a long time...it is building up again.

Anyway. I realize there are a lot of ways to have fun on different forums. I am not one who thinks it is fun to bash the newbies or the less informed.However, some people just plain deserve it as well. I guess that is why I am a moderator over there.

But this is not my site and I will keep coming here for the info. I am also sure I will get along great in a social setting with most here when we meet. I jsut come off as a little reserved online.......becaseu I don't want my mommy to wash my mouth out with soap.

LOL,
No, I do not want to be a moderator here. Don't care that much. I originally was just tryin to help woody, see where that got me? He hasn't even posted in the past 4 pages yet I am still trying to help.

The only Reason I am a moderaotr on the GB Packer Website is because I grew up there and have a lot of "inside" connections. That site has been thriving for 6 years now.

Whinning? Not at all.

KenP 03-24-2006 06:53 PM

PF, those of us that have been around for a while use an area called General Off Topic. The crier could have started his ranting there, but he didn't.

PackerFever 03-24-2006 06:57 PM

Thanks, See what having a helpful nature does for a guy?

Let me try a new approach. Kiss my ass and if you don't like it go to hell.

Is that better.

BTW, if you want to shorten my name most places I am known as Fever. but you can call me most anything you wish......or is that opening a can of worms too?

oh yeah, to hell with woody too!

RubHer Yellow Ducky 03-24-2006 07:07 PM

WOW,

1797 posts is the record according to ShaggyX (almost my I.Q.)

Sounds like 1700 posts to many, musta been talking bout SEX.

No, really - exchange of ideas is GREAT but one MUST acknowledge when one is wrong or assumed something that was mistaken.

Had a disagreement with f5 once, we both appoliged in private and that was that I value his knowledge.

Anyway seems this post is goin on and on and on...

just my opinion

RYD

ps:
buy the way i'm shootin 4 over 13000...
