Not 'nothing' like a short joke 'nothing', not like a 372189371980th time reposted owned picture 'nothing', not even as bad as a silly e-mail chain letter 'nothing'....i'm talking about the "i just had some cereal" NOTHINGS


but as long as IA continues to be an open website 'by the people, for the people' then i guess i'll just deal with it and try my best to sort through the threads of useless shit in hopes of actually finding something worth reading...but the whores lounge is sadly becoming a less and less frequented place by me


ok, done and not editing...feels good to let it out, even if you guys could give a shit less...
I could give a shit less what you think... no really.. i just said that because you figured someone would and i dont often disapoint.

the whores lounge was created for exactly what it is used for because other wise we had to be a bunch of forum nazi's and noone liked that, even the most reserved posted is found posting in there on occasion. some threads get way out of hand... some threads are much worse then way out of hand. Im hoping paul will eventually yell at me and the other mods for being so slack and we can tighten up a little, but until then if im the only one doing anything about it, im an asshole. if everyone does it then its the way it is and its no biggie.

the whores lounge is easy enough to avoid is my point and everything else seems to have alot less traffic but its more then alot of forums, mainly due to the fact people sit in the whores lounge all day and from time to time think of something to post that is car related.. i know of several other forums that were once sucessfull and have since went down hill because of their forum nazism, if thats a word. there is a delicate balance that needs to be maintained.. hopefully when we get a little more strict it will be with moderation
