Yet, when Steve "I paint my cars behind the barn" Kelley knows damn right well every single post about the amazing slow and girlious Fiero is guaranteed to start a flame war, not a peep from the forum police? Come on California kid, you are losing your edge buddy...

Correct me if I'm wrong here, (and we know there are some on here that try ) but weren't you just the other day in another thread whining that you never say anything insulting that deserves you to have so much red??

Oh, and this was so nice too:

Oh, comon people, let it be, what steve and his wonderful family are saying is..

To respect everyone elses oppinions/decisions, unlless the said oppinions/decisions happen to be in contridiction of theirs, in which case it is fair to disregard the first statement and look like a bunch of inbred toolebags.

I do not like the car personally, but, Steve, fly at [b]your]/b] car with all your heart. but dont try to stop me when i say i dont like it. no one likes a double standard. feel free to trash my car, you wont see me getting all worked up over it and getting my entire family to run to my defence when i have run out of smart things to say. face it steve, oppinions differ, and if you cant deal with the little fact.. then, maybe the internet isnt for you.

anyhoo, congrats on getting in a mag, i remember how excited i was when my lego was in the lego newsletter.. course.. that was.. over 12 years ago..

cheers.

Well said!

We all have different opinions and perspectives. But let's try to live by two simple rules:

1. If you wanna post your opinion about something, you damn well better be willing to listen to someone else's with the same open-mindedness and tact as you would like.
2. Try to have some tact. Certain threads ask for our opinions, in which positive and negative comments are welcome. But WTF is going on here? The kid is 11! We were not asked for opinions. We were simply asked for a little recognition where recognition was well-earned. This thread is not the appropriate place for negative feedback.

I feel like I'm on a soapbox in front of a kindergarten class. I don't know if they were teaching manners when the rest of you were in school, but they sure did while I was there (and so did my parents), so in case not, now I've taught you something, and I don't think it should be a problem to remember. Right?

I'm pretty sure that if a certain few PFF members were in positions of power in the world, the whole place would be covered with nukes. If you can't get along here, you sure as hell don't belong in the "real world."

I didn't exactly take Mizers comment the way you did Tim. I certainly could have read it the wrong way I guess. At any rate..
What we are saying (and thanks to those for speaking for us and getting it wrong) is that if you must, you can say you don't like it, fine. Just please folow the posted rules and common sense and don't say it in a rude and insulting way:

Sorry.

Edit

Lol, ok, I have thoroughly confused myself, but I think I'm getting it sorted out. I didn't read MiZeR's whole post... and what I did read, I read wrong.

Anyway, except for "well said," I meant the rest of my post.

I'm such a goof when I pull enough all-nighters in a row. =P

Steve, Jordan, Tarrah, and Marian (and anyone else I left out, lol)
Congratulations! I plan on emulating Steve if I can, and getting my daughter (when she's old enough) to work with me on her ride. Proven fact: every minute you spend bonding with your kid in a constructive activity, is ten less minutes you will ever spend worrying about them. And I'd rather tangle with a pack of wildcats than get on the fighting side of this family, the way you guys stick together. Great job, and I hope Jordan gets to sign all two hundred copies, and has lots of 11 year old groupies, lol.

Well here goes trying to be "mature" and on topic. Good job getting in the mag Steve (and Jordan). But how is it so important that he has a booksigning? Try introducing Jordan and his car to the "real world" where his car gets criticized to his face. You put your car and yourself into a public forum, don't expect everyone to be all "nice" and give props to the car. Criticism is allowed on this forum as I remember it, and if you or anyone else puts their car up, it is going to get both postives and negatives. Criticism is especially a potential on this forum since most people here do not like "tuner" modifications to the exterior.

Mr. Pat sure I'll take you on Buford Hwy, although I'm pretty sure I would lose . Let's see, 275 HP 325 torque LTI powered 2900 lb or so Fiero (not to mention mid-engine for traction) against a 305 HP 320 lb ft torque 3500 lb or so Camaro Z28. I'd stick a LS1 or LS6 in my Fiero and race you, but I don't have enough money, equipment, or connections to get the deal done. Only have a garage and tools enough to do basic engine work, not to lift the engine out of the Fiero or weld/cut anything. Archie is 600 mi. away, and I truthfully have no idea where to get a LS1 or LS6 for cheap. Plus the car is so original a V8 might decrease the value. But sure I'll take your Fiero with the Camaro .

You know, what surprises me about threads like these, is that most of you get excited like a little girl when a Fiero is spotted for 0.00578 seconds in some obscure movie, but when somebody gets his Fiero in a magazine, you whine about how incredibly UNimportant that is.

What surprises me even more is that a bunch of people, who probably don't have kids of their own (and if you do - omg), who are obviously struggling with adolescence themselves, who are far from being a role-model for anyone, who idolize fictional movie-characters, who think the looks of a car is more important than the bonding between a father and his son (which tells you something about the childhood these people must have had) - that those people are telling others what's best for an 11-year old kid. Yeah right. So they can grow up and be like you?

This thread is now Trash-Can material. Which is a shame.
