I didn't read every post, but I skimmed over it. Just wanted to say this. It seems to me this demonstrates the real attachment to PFF that some of grow into, when someone posts here that they are going to be away for a while.
The forum itself becomes another hobby above & beyond our Fieros, which is evident by the numbers here who don't even currently have a Fiero. Additionally, there is a lot of family type feeling here, once you get accustomed to some members, and they get to know you.
Life gets you down sometimes, regardless who your friends are, if you're lucky enough to have some. When it starts to get to me, I look up Rocky's speech to his son in the last movie. Movie or not, it's a good lesson, but we are all different in what motivates us. So stick like glue to what motivates you, and find some practical way to make it real in your day. After a while, you'll climb out of the mud and look back and wonder why you let it suck you down so quickly. It happens to all of us, so I feel for ya. You will get past this, and will be able to come back here and teach us something WE can learn from it too.
Edit - Okay, I see there's a little history going on in the Trash Can section. Whatever.

Hey PK. You ever need anything, PM me. You are one of the members here that everyone knows by name. I've never met you and most likely never will, just based on distance. I'm not saying I can help you, but, I have been through a lot in my 35 years. I still feel 18 most days, but I just have more good stories to tell than I did back then.

Keep your head up, things will get better. We all go through rough times, but with a little time and help we can get through it. If you need someone to talk to, PM me your #.
Originally posted by Back On Holiday: Actually glad to see you growing up and owning up to your severe attitude problem, sorry it was blunt and not sugar coated. Also the thread actually starts here at page 6 https://www.fiero.nl/forum/F...L/000134-6.html#p209 and not page 8 https://www.fiero.nl/forum/F...8/HTML/000134-8.html , but nonetheless you do need to talk to a shrink, migraines and trouble sleeping, and your medical condition that your father said you had when I met you, (similar to your brothers) if you do nothing about it, you will never get better and end up off'n yourself and upsetting the ones you care about, you and your father should make a deal, you help him with his heart conditon, while he helps you with psychology issues. Now, I'm serious about this and again... I am concerned for your well being, step up to the plate and dont make this another hate thread.
This is disgusting. I refuse to associate myself with what you all have going on, but this is downright despicable and you should be ashamed. The Fiero community, this forum, nor society needs human beings such as yourself. Perhaps you should reconsider your own maturity level before you go cutting others down..?

I think Rick's CL add was more of a feeler than anything. I'm pretty sure he isn't completely ready to part ways with his 87 just yet. But think of it this way, if he does sell it, he'll have a good footing to start his IMSA build with.
After talking to Rick yesterday, he assures me that he will not be gone too long. I also assured him that his dad will pull through okay because he is a tough old bird. I know I have made pokes at PK just like others, but they were purely joking around and not meant to hurt him in any way. He understands that and told me so. I also threatened to knock him into next Tuesday if he leaves the forum for good. He's my friend and I will always do what I can to help him out with anything he needs.

And yet here you are, adding to the fire. I am sure that you know these guys personally and know all the history of this issue which makes you the perfect commentator on the subject. I agree with others who have said this should not be on the forum, but people who are hundreds of miles away that only have PFF for a filtered view of this issue should really back off and let these two work out their issues, off the forum hopefully... My or your personal judgment of them is really quite worthless in this situation. It would really be sad if anyone got banned for this crap, it is between the two of them.

Yeah, what Phil said. Come back and shoot me a PM anytime.. heck, you are only in PA, you cant be that far away from me.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and it's their right to voice them if they so choose. I'm not adding anything to the fire, simply pointing out the fact posts like that crap are not needed. Anyone who thinks they are would be just as useless imho. As far as prodding into their personal issues, I didn't do that. As a matter of fact, I posted that I refuse to be a part of that - because I am hundreds of miles away and I don't know these guys personally.. It's also none of my business.
With that being said, hopefully you and anyone who agrees with you, can see and understand my viewpoint on the situation. As mature adults, and supposedly 'one of the kindest communities of people', I would hope more people would feel like I do. All joking, bickering, personal issues, public/private, phase of the moon, etc aside - the post I quoted crossed the line.
Also, one more thing to add. If the referred to post struck me the way that it did, enough to warrant a post (now two) reflecting my opinion, image how it made PK feel.

Sure, but don't for get that thread wasn't targeted at you... think of the gravity of this statement you directed towards Andrew.

Thanks for making that judgment call for all of us, but based on what, a couple of threads in a forum on the Internet? While I did use your post for an example, for which I apologize, I really do have nothing against you personally, how could I, I don't even know you.
Hiya PK - Hope you are still reading this. You can PM me or call me anytime. Anyone involved in Tyler's project whether here or not here is officially part of our family forever. You can't get rid of us That being said, I know how much it SUCKS when you are dealing with health problems in your family obviously. I also know what it feels like to want to tell everyone in your life to take a hike and just hide under your bed. It's OK to do that... just not forever. Every day is a chance to make a new decision to face whatever is going on in your life head on. You will be surprised how much backbone and fortitude you have. I didn't read all the posts so I only have a vague perspective on what happened, but as my grandma always says.. don't let one bad apple spoil the bushel. Life is made for living, good and the bad. It's what makes us who we are

Take one day at a time, make small achievable goals and realize that you are not alone. Remember, realizing you have a problem is more than half the battle. Once you recognize the problem it is possible to implement a solution. It's just like working on these cars; sometimes you know the solution to what is wrong and you, alone, can fix it. And sometimes you have to ask for help. Regardless of my advice, I know you will make it through this and you'll be a better and stronger person for the experience. I'm pulling for you, PK.
