Anyone who responded back to I'm Back is no better and I feel a lot worse then him. The only thing you (the people that responded back offensivly) did is to provoke an argument.
People who can not read. I'm back's first post

no where do i see him bashing Chris Reeves.
People who chose to start an argument and turn around, and state it is his fault.
thats just page one, If your maturity level is actually high, you would have never started an arguement in the first place. Your no better then the many reality tv shows on tv, that show human behavior. "the apple hasn't fallen far from the tree"
As a highly intelligence person with a maturity level. I for one who has been paying attention to current events knows that President Bush or his "party" denied spending more federal funds on stem research. While Kerry wanted to help Christopher Reeve's research in finding a cure to this "disease".
That is pretty much all there is to say about that. I will not argue who will be a better person to run as a president. It isn't my agenda, and the whole back and forth argument on who will win the election is very pointless.
Reading great literature and history, it just shows that humans will always be the same.
RIP Reeves and his family.

I have viewed the forum for years. And have been a fiero owner for around 7 years.
I have seen him argue about political issues for a long time. I dont care about political issues and he is no headache in my life. If your going to worry about what one man says over 10,000? people in this forum, then you have personal issues about your own maturity level. And just outcasting someone based on their views. If you are easily offended by other peoples opinions then stick with reading in the general section and technical. This is another form of racism which is going on.
I have seen the grouping of people on this forum. Eventhough, people should stick together because we own a fiero, it doesn't happen. We have the westcoast lovers, archie haters, 2.5l owners but are looked down upon by the people who own anything else, the people in canada that own a fiero, etc....
I'll put a sticky note on my monitor to remind myself that I'm back is wearing the "scarlet A" .

Uh huh... I guess ALL of us are 'immature' who are tired of putting up with his LONG history of disrespect and abuse of this forum, its members and its owner.
It's long overdue that he was shown the door.
It's disgusting that you're actually defending him. Or is 'CertifiedMechanic' simply a sockpuppet account of 'I'm Back'? That wouldn't be surprising.
i didn't say everyone is immature on this forum. That would go back to some of the reading comprehension issues. Only the few who chose to start and continue an argument with him. And I am not defending his actions. I am stating the obvious, that you and a few others rather initiate an argument with him instead of ignoring his comments.
If you have a "real life" argument with someone in person. They tell you there is no GOD, but yet, you believe there is a GOD. Are you going to argue with that person for the rest of your life? Or are you going to walk away from the argument?
The better man, walks away.
If you like, you can ask cliff to trace my IP address and see it is from a Chicago server as I'm backs would of course have an IP address from an Arizona server.
"its disgusting"
You must have not grown up in the last 60 minutes. I believe you find vegetables to be disgusting too!

Again, this has nothing to do with I'm Back's opinions. What I'm tired of, and what many others seem tired of, is his method of expressing them. I'm tired of watching him crap all over threads, I'm tired of his rude, combative attitude, I'm tired of I'm Back, period. Am I going to lose sleep over it? No, but by the same token I'm not going to be upset when he gets banned (again). In case you're not aware, he was already banned once for this type of behavior. He was allowed back on the forum under a different name, but he carried on with the same attitude. Yeah, you can ignore it, but it gets old and highly irritating after awhile.
It's not "racism", as you imply, it's simply a matter of courtesy, a subject which I'm Back seems to know or care very little about. If I'm Back is wearing a "scarlet A", he put it there himself, and wears it proudly.

The 'picture joke' was a DIRECT bash to Christopher Reeves, his plight, his condition and his death.
And placed directly in the middle of a memoral thread to the man.
And done so in order to stir up attention and discord.
This community doesn't need individuals here with those intentions.
You're unreal...
AGREED!
Certified, when a man who has been confined to a wheel chair, fights the way Chris Reeve did for the people in his condition, and for the general good of all, it's no time to post a cartoon mortal combat style, basicly saying "another one is gone, BFD". Would you do that at the services of someone so well respected and loved.
What I stated was my opinion that he was wrong... bad timing and bad taste.
Yes we are all grown ups ... sure, that doesn't make it any less dis-tastefull, actually it makes it worse because we should all know better.

'Nothing' has been done for far too long already.
Not like he is putting kittens in a bag and throwing them in a lake. :rolleyes
Like banning someone is considered doing something. That isn't going to fix your immaturity problem. You will just find someone else you dont agree with, and this will start all over again.
This is the same as the kids who were stuck on an island and made up their own rules.

[Just a Mental Image here] I'm Back is probably sitting on his computer chair right this minute, reading the arguments and discord he has been able to illicit from us, jumping up and down in the seat, clapping his hands together and going "goody-goody" with a smile on his face.[/Just a Mental Image here]

Nice of you to take 7 years worth of Fiero knowledge, information and technical advice for your own benefit, giving nothing back whatsoever, and then thank the forum, the members and Cliff for all of it by breaking your silence only to give your very vocal support for an individual who is here not to be a part of the community, but only to create and promote discord for his own enjoyment, and has done it for the entire time he has been allowed to post here.
And you claim that I'm the immature one. Bizarre.
Crawl back under your rock.

13 posts and I already think you're a dick. A new record. There is NO way you haven't been here before. Fess-up, who are you and when were you banned and under what user-name?
