Looks like we lost a member. It amazes me though how a thread can be a simple little question and then it turns into a boxing tournament. The tone of threads sometimes go from good to bad in an instant. I know I have gotten out of hand sometimes, but some people go overboard. I guess you learn something new everyday, I know I certainly do. Maybe it would be a good idea to think over an opinion before stating it. That's what im goin to be doing from now on. Some people take opinions too seriously, and make a big deal of it, but im just amazed right now. -Cody
You should not be amazed.. Life is full of rules, and one of them on this board is if I ask for a discussion to cool off, I expect that request will be respected.
Sometimes saying nothing at all is the best answer you can give if you KNOW it going to ruffle some feathers. I read the whole thing, and if 1 party would have just stepped off and lived to fight another day, it would not have come to this. But when it gets personal and people want to have a throw down over it...... just have to let it go. That thread had the "I gotta get the last jab" tone to it. Someone had to step in and they did....... This is a hobby and sport to most of us. Have fun with it. :TU:
Exactly Jim, I agree, you have enough headaches of your own much less ones with other people. This board shouldn't be used as a wrestling arena. Im not and never try to fight w/ anyone else because fighting isn't going to prove nor solve anything. I express my opinion as I think in a positve manner, but I can see how people can look at it from each side of the box. :Comp: -Cody
Where was this discussion and what did I miss?? I check this forum everyday, sometimes twice and I haven't seen anything that I would throw a member out (of any forum I admin) for. o No: If the person in question kept ignoring requests to tone it down, I can see it happening though even if it does suck. :spank: :ball:
It was in the "status of the new 455 blocks" thread, link:http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=43392&perpage=25&pagenumber=3 Just keep reading from that page on. -Cody
There are some things you should never argue about since no one will change their views, religion, politics, and new 455 blocks!
But some people in this world just won't stop beating a dead horse until they get everyone they disagree with to agree with them. A sane person knows that's just not going to happen, no matter how forcefully, or how many times someone restates their position or opinion on something. They can't be happy just thinking that they're right, they have to get everyone else to see their point of view as fact, as well. And they don't care how many times they have to keep going back and beat that dead horse to accomplish that.
