Jordans Fiero at night (Page 11/32)
xsrage APR 01, 08:00 PM
some of you may have noticed I stopped posting for months. I will never be convinced that it is okay to speak your opinion and defend yourself with comments like. It is a public forum, It is just my opinion, It is a free country. Yes you are right. Only hopefully Jordan will growup to respect other people wether or not he agrees with them. If I posted everything that came into my head I would be hated by most of the forum members. If I see an ugly car at a light I dont walk over and say dude that cars is the ugliest thing I have ever seen. It is disrespectful. No one respects anyone in this world and there is always some easy excuse to make it ok. I have a right to express my opinion, Its a free country, etc. The sooner people learn to respect everyone around them and learn to be accepting of others the better. I for one dont think it will ever happen. People these days dont respect themselves enough to care. Just watch Springer. This lack of respect for other people and what they hold dear is more rampant on the internet where you can remain a username and not have to face the people but it is everywhere. Maybe there are too many posts about this green car. It is not for me to decide. Put yourself in the other persons shoes before posting anything. Try to think how they might take it and either dont post or change the wording. You can express your opinion even where it isnt wanted if done correctly. It isnt the rest of the worlds job to put up with your attitude it is your job to change it..I will no go and work on my fiero which I have been keeping picture records on. I will not post them you will not see them. Lately I have decided maybe being a hermit would be better because I am so sick of people putting themselves above others. I see it at Walmart, four way stops, everywhere no one respects others anymore. It is not hard just try ok? This forum is about a car we all love. Lets get back to the subject. I think Im about done with the forum again...ramble ramble ramble

Well quit having a pity party on MY time and go stick your head back in a F'n hole then.

Okay there is one point to be made about this thread. I see people that are usually placeid chiming in about how this car has jumped on every page since day one. If this were a NEW MEMBER to PFF would they get this treatment ? No. This thread and the others like it do not portray the general feelings of PFF. If a new member posted THIS car, some might get squimish but all in all I think it would blow over.

But the point here is that this car has been shoved down our throats for a year now and even some of the most ***tolerate*** of the group seem to be getting annoyed. Maybe it's time to be proud of what you've done and just leave it at that. I doubt anyone is really following the progress of that thing anyhow.

That being said, if it ran 10's in the quarter it wouldn't matter WHAT the hell it looks like........because it can run 10's in the quarter.

But it can't, so nobody really cares. It's just rice.

As a member of this forum, it IS partially up to you what is acceptable and what isn't. That's one of the problems with society today. No one wants to say "Hey, dude...that's unacceptable!". Back in the olden days, when I was young, you couldn't go into a store and screw off because someone would grab you and haul your misbehaven butt up to the customer service counter (or the equivelent back then) and have your parents paged or called. Now? Lawsuit! Kids tell us "You can't touch me!". What does that breed? A lack of respect. Kids can do what they want because no one (usually the parents) tells them otherwise. Then the kids get the "Who am I to tell them what to do?" attitude. Well, that's not the way it works. This forum is a group of folks that are interested in Fieros. There are a number of threads out there that are posted by members who have modified their cars, right? Lots and lots of threads. People ask opinions. People don't ask opinions....they just want to show off their car. That's the idea, and that's perfectly acceptable. Personally, there are some mods that I like, and some that I don't like. In Fiero5's case here, the car really isn't the issue. Some of us like it, and some of us don't. Doesn't matter. This thread has turned into a group of members advising Steve that they feel he's posting way too many pics of the car. Some are expressing their like or dislike for the car, but the frequency of the posting is the issue. So, your statement is incorrect. It IS up to you to help decide what's appropriate and what isn't. If everyone except me felt that the multiple posts weren't an issue, then I would back away and be quiet. But, there are several members who feel that there are too many posts about this car and they are expressing their displeasure. We have a rating system to help us express that displeasure if we want, so again, it IS for you to help decide.

I've tried to be respectful in my displeasure, but it's getting to the point where I'm not going to polite.

Mark


How many pages is Steve going to get out of THIS thread before he gets it?

I'm still mad that Jordan didn't take my "Green Goblin" Idea...

but hey its not my place.. I think for what the car is, a child's Expression of what he wants a car to look like(whatever it be!), on a Fiero Platform.. its great..

I still want to see a HOT Pink one (Because I know everyone would have a "Bowel Clearing" fit with that one)

Oh yeah and MUCH LOVE TO ALL THE FIERO BRETHREN OUT THERE!!!

Why can't we all just get along? I think it's time for this thread to die.
