    yeah we don't want to discredit noobs like you who are even nice enough to let our friends crash our cars into curbs. ha.

    thats my point. im glad you understand. my BIGGEST problem with the whole issue (and its not just noobs) in when people put threads up with no pics and are like "ill do it in a few minutes". fuck you. no you wont. take the time to make one post and do it right or dont bother. if you got 5 minutes to paste stupidness, take 5 more to make it right

    WTF??!! Did you not read the post?? I said it was a complete accident. What the hell is this?? ne way, it's completely true. People like us think they can drive and end up doing stupid shit to their cars for not a good reason. I wasn't bashing on your skills, I was bashing on our lack of judgement.

    my lack of judgement? you told me to try it and i did. your the owner of the car so i did what you said. that sounds like your judgement to me. btw i CAN drive ive just never done that kind of driving before and im pretty sure you know that. just dont give me shit about it at least im a good enough guy to fix it. i could have said fuck that and walked home. btw get that wheel fixed and send me the bill.

    oh and yes i think that there should be some sort of rules over noobs selling cars on ia.

    Noobs should post up items for sale...as long as they follow the "for sale" rules. They might post up our dream car for sale and you'd be grateful that they posted.

    Besides, people with thousands of post sell cars for their other people anyways.
    Why not let noobs post? If they fuck up, give them another chance.. shit gives the admin something to do anyways.

    I like the "100" or "200" post rule, too. I hate the worthless non-contributers that troll through here doing nothing but selling shit. This is a free site and a free selling space and these idiots come through and take advantage of that. That's why I am tougher on these new folks and not the more common, productive IA people. The newer ones are idiots who think they know it all and can come on here and do it how they want.

    Just so you know, I don't think all new folks are idiots. Just a lot of them. Later, QD.

    Mods and higher ups, is there ANYTHING we can do about this?? people still cant read the rules and STILL post WTB in the FS forums and still make dumbass posts saying "ill have pics in ten minutes" how about we format it where if there isnt a pic on the page when it is submitted, it blocks the post automatically. any way to do that??

    No. I'm pretty sure that can't be done. According to the rules, we are giving the people a 4 hour time limit to get photos. The way I see it though, is that when you make the initial post, you should have everything ready then. If you don't have pics or whatever, then don't post until you do have everything. Later, QD.
