Why are people so arrogant?

hey, im not an asshole...I'm just happy that this forum has the outreach to bring in a focus owner. Hey, I almost bought an SVT focus, but decided on the MP5. Stay around man, we support all enthusiasts, or at least the ones who are worth it on this forum do.
 
Here's an idea...
Why don't you guys quit brown-nosing a troll who tells us we're a bunch of losers on his 4th post. **** that guy. It's not about the car you drive, it's about the attitude you have. And you have a pissy one. So, lemme get this straight. A couple of people asked you why you were posting your 1/4 mi times, and now everyone in the club is an "arrogant loser". :bs:

BFD. Get over it and move on with your life.

I am going to stick around. And I didnt say all this because of what a few people said to me, I said all this because of about 23 private messages I recieved telling me to **** off. I have since deleted them all, and I am going to give everything a fresh start.
 
I agree w/eggynatey to an extent on this, the posts I saw weren't that bad. I don't think this guy should be so sensitive about it... but in the same vein I don't thing people should be down on this guy b/c he doesn't drive the same make car. Obviously he's not posting on this forum to get detailed install advice or something on Fords, just came to shoot the s*** w/other car lovers and I don't think he should be persecuted for it. If you're still here, Twilight02ZX3, I hope you stick around and take advantage of what this board has to offer, just don't pay attention to somebody who's being a jerk.

Hey, man. I'm sorry about that. I didn't know about the PM's
Welcome to the club, sorry if I came off as a dick.(hand)
 
My apologies

Twilite02x3, first I want to apologize for me and everybody else here that gave you static for posting on this site. You have a nice ride w/ allot of posibilities. I too used to own a couple of fords. My all time favorite being my 69 429 BOSS, that me and a couple of buds salvaged from a Myrtle Beach, S.C. junk yard..and rebuilt. The car was a beast!!! But was then short lived. I was hit on the shotgun side by a drunk driving b**** in a Chrysler Imperial!!! She cracked the block and bent the axel, and hit w/ such a force, that she bent her steering wheel back and broke both her wrists!!

Well anyways...welcome to the site(drinks)
 
In addition to his other post were people were telling him to leave, etc.
It wasn't just the 1/4 mile post. Further more it adds to it if your first few posts are filled with mostly negative comments. Had NOTHING to do with brown nosing, just defending someone from other people who are quick to judge. Further more they judge negatively without even looking into the facts or giving a rats arse.

Its sick at times how members treat other people around here. Almost as bad as the other Protege forum, and we mostly know how that turned out. Lets try not to let the samething happen here.
 
Hey Twilight02ZX3,
If you're into tuning your car, you might wanna track down some tuners that are on this site, like PerfWorks. Although he's on this site, many such tuners also work on other cars too. At the last meet we had, PerfWorks came in a Focus because his Mazdas were out of commission. There's lots of good info here so enjoy this forum!
 
heh...sad that it takes someone to say that ya are asses to even get a reply. look at his other post, like 3 people welcomed him...including me. sad...
 
That thread title saddens me...You guys may not realize how important it is to maintain some sort of POSITIVE / FRIENDLY / HELPFUL vibe in this community!

No one wants to be a member to a community of assholes that is filled with hate!

Overall this site has a wonderful vibe...so it is no surprise that we may attract enthusiasts from other brands...ALL ARE WELCOME!

Don't hate...but HELP!

** Those who are mature and don't take insults personally are the ones who truly enjoy this site. **

it's not brown-nosing...it's trying to keep our community from turning into a place where people are scared to post for fear of rude remarks.

Granted, no one can take away anyone's right to be an asshole, and everyone can have their own opinion, but that doesn't mean I have to like you either....(glare)

Shunning someone for their car is as st00pid as shunning someone like me because my skin is brown.
 
If i may add my 2 cents here
Please no one take this the wrong way. But i dont think that the couple of posts made regarding 1/4 mile times stated anything about these guys or anyone not LIKING the focus. They were just caught off guard. But on the other hand maybe it could have been handled a little more delicatly . In either case we ALL need to chill. Both the guy who got upset and the guys on the other side of the argument.I have been to many other forums and seen alot worse. As a matter of fact other forums have the trend getting worse.At least we are trying to resolve it. This board has a great deal of info and great people . Please dont take things to heart to much beacause you all know that a conversation over the net and one in person could be relayed completely different.
Have fun with this s*** man no need to leave.!!!:D

I'm not asking you to like me. I read his previous posts. He sure didn't seem scared to post the fact that he thinks everyone here is a loser. Here's what I saw: Somebody said "post your 1/4 mile times", he posted his, a few people asked him why he's posting Focus times in a Protege discussion group, and suddenly everyone here in an "arrogant asshole".
Sorrrry if I wasn't quick to welcome the guy after he insulted everyone on the forum, but at that point in time, to me, he seemed to be trolling.

After that, but BEFORE everyone assured me what "an asshole" I am, I apologized. I never sent the guy a nasty PM. I just stated the FACT that I'm not gonna let someone call me a loser before they even know me. So glare at somone else, like maybe someone who sent him a PM.

Happy birthday.

I'm done with this thread.

WOW. Yah, some things do get lost over the internet.

Sweetie, I wasn't calling YOU an asshole, nor was I referring to you in any part of the post where I said "I don't have to like you. (glare)".

I was using "you" (the word) in a general sense. whoo (sssh)

[soap opera drama tone]It's gonna be okay...we'll get thru this![/soap opera drama tone]
