This kind of thread can get touchy, lets all remember that by arguing about this sort of topic we(this forum community) are becoming the creature that we are trying to not become.

Please don't take it up a notch, only warning being given.

Please don't take it up a notch, only warning being given.

if by only discussing what is happening in the greater community we run the risk of becoming as bad as the rest ,well,as a community we have a problem.hiding it or sweeping it under the carpet will not help it,only delay the inevitable. I really believe that we are better than what is happening out there and hope that by disussing the issues we can as a community come to a solution.

please if you feel like leaving a post,please make it constuctive.
thank you.

you know guys,I have spent some time in the last couple of days doing some research on what happens on forums.Im new to this,I have not come from 15 other sites or am a member or mod of 10 or 50 other forum sites.I AM A MEMBER ON VWW AND ONLY VWW.I wasnt going to write anything of my opinion here,but hell,I ive changed my mind.did we forget our manners or somehow believe that because" im sitting in front of this box in my house there is not a real person on the other end".THERE IS!!! disrespecting and "flaming" your fellow member is just not on,and it seems that its the same people that antagonise or push people into starting trouble.its these same people that are members of many forum sites and believe"ahh well ,get banned on one site,ive got 10 others"
so if you are one of these people that have nothing better to do with your time DONT POST,no need to name names here,you know who you are,think about YOUR FELLOW MEMBER(yes this is a community ,not a nazi regime)and how that upsets or makes him/her feel.
sorry for my rant ....

Just remember this:

Arguing on the internet is like the special Olympics, whether you win or lose your still retarded.

I will admit i like a good debate about cars (DEBATE) but some times it gets out of hand with some people.

I am proud to say that my virtual tuning community can't be beat for friendlyness, we are the most layed back and friendly community out there, and my staff and I keep it that way by kicking out the trouble makers, we are all for sharing opinions but it has to be done constructivly. We dont need the ones who are negative, a buz kill if you will.

Make a stand and kick the bastards out, display it openly (wanker rank) to show new members that you dont take that kindo crap.

You also have to remember that it is a community and you should be able to share your opinion and you should not have to conform to fit in.

PS. I know i havnt been here very long, but i would like to say its a great place, you guys are very friendly and open. Great job with the community.

hehe,mikinoz(confusus) said recently,nobody wins a internet fight.
I KNOW he is right and so are you.
thats exactly what I was thinking,ZERO TOLERANCE or ALLOW EVERYTHING(like another well known forum).cant be both.

The problem is on this forum, if someone has a different opinion than you, they get upset about it.

static1800 or Brackie,if I have written anything offensive here please edit it.

Everyone is entitled to voice their opinions, free speech is wonderful but we all need to remember that thing's can be taken WAY out of context over the internet. Before you post a response have a think about what the person may be trying to say and don't snap to a reaction. Little thing's like this can help this place stay as wonderful as it is now.

Here's another example of how we aren't alone with this problem.
