If only this were slashdot and I had moderation points, you'd get +5 Insightful from me.<rant>
I visit this site as much as I can because it's great to have a local site dedicated to the scene. I got into cars starting with my 1989 Cavalier Z24 and got my information from a mailing list, that's right, mailing list, none of this web based forum crap we use today. Anyway, nothing was ever local and the topic always revolved around one car, which was a drag because being I lived in the Midwest it was hard to find other people into the car in the area. So when I finally found this site after getting my Mazda I was elated, finally a local bunch of people I could maybe hang out with, trade ideas and see some cool cars. But instead what I really found was a place filled with bickering and general dislike for the next guy.So like I said, it's great to have a site dedicated to the Fargo car scene but it's too bad it's filled with so much bickering and immature pissing matches. I really wish people would just have fun and stop ragging on people because they don't run a DSM/Honda.
Now we have this Ban-A-Member which is NOT fun and will only cause more strife between members. Many of the other sites I frequent have a special icon you get when you donate to the site. Maybe a method of raising money that is encouraging could be implemented instead
+5 Insightful nice
Totally agree with you and more luck to you on your project with your Mazda.

Project Mazda is slow going, my "accountant" is really tough

i totally agree. banning members might generate a little bit of money, but its just going to bring more drama, and right now fargostreet already has way too much of that. donations and advertising would be the best way to go. they both generate money and wont cause any bickering between members.

My wif...errr...accountant is telling me to stop my deficit spending too....I feel like a republican sticking all this money into my car w/ no way of making the money back.... -
alls u do is bitch and moan...its all in good fun...i guess he could just shut the website down...then you would be FUCKED for life..and you could pay for it all!

you find me a forum where there is no drama i know when i use to go on SRT-4 Forums there was more on there in a day then there is on here in a week-2 weeks...the drama on here is all in good fun for the most part.. sure here and there people actually mean what they say but i know if i get a post from someone from SLS, kirk, tin or anyone else for the most part they are just joking around causing some conversation... i dont think it's a real big deal that jim is tryin to make some money to pay for something that will benefit US. it's not like he is gonna pocket it and just leave the site the way it is cause jim isn't like that he wants to make this the best site he can possibly make. So i dont know why people are gettin so mad at little things as if you were to get banned for a couple days or a week you can still come and visit the forum just can't post. A lot of people on here only do come here to see what's going on. I know i use to just come and look and not post ever but now i'm actually starting to voice my opinion and start to whore thread like Kirk over there who is leading in the posts lol well anyways i dont think it's just this forum that has drama and the banning isn't a bad thing it's just a way to have fun and get some money to make the site better
I'm done now proceed

All I do is bitch and moan???
I'm probably one of the most laid back people on this site (except when it comes to politics) I argued a lot during the election, but I surely didn't bitch that Bush won. Yeah, I'll admit I was pissed when I found I was banned and didn't know why. I went to log in and couldn't...so I tried my buddies account, and was in, read the new "game" and didn't really have a way to get unbanned @ the time. I think I had a right to be a little pissed. If I didn't consider Tufte a friend or didn't know Jim I would have probably never come back. -
yeah i know but its all in good fun man...ur back so be happy!:)
-
I am happy...still think it's a bad idea, but happy.
-
yeah, but you gotta get money somehow.

Joe, we don't wanna hear your life story.

BANNING 2K3WRXND and MY M6 WOULDN'T BE A BAD IDEA EITHER BECAUSE THEY ARE SO MUCH MORE MATURE THEN EVERYBODY ELSE AND OBVIOUSLY DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT THE $5 goes for......so banning them sounds like a great idea to me. UNTIL THEY GET A SENCE OF HUMOR OR REALIZE THAT THEY DONT HAVE TO BE SO FUKN SERIOUS ALL THE TIME
