This forum needs beef to thrive... Real Talk

[Dirty Octopus™]

I remember the days of 2004, back when we had clowns like Coreyblade. IA was fun. now we see nothing but the same 6 characters post everyday with their ever so harmless banter. Where's the fun in that? This forum needs balance.
the world cant work without war so why can't we have verbal war with folks here?

i consistently recall 2 action packed weeks of IA fun back in 2005 when Vteckidd and xXsomethingXx with the K20 lamboed bass boat white pearled hatchback bashed back and forth like there was no tomorrow. now THAT was fun to read. it was conflicts like that that made me start posting. i NEVER cared to really post prior to that. i was just here for the FS and WTB. I actually posted more on IL (summa ya'll prally dont know bout that)

This forum seems to have died since those days and i think we have quite a few new cats that have no desire to contribute an opinion due to the fear of being banned.

Now i understand the want for lack of clutter in separate sections and thats COOL. but the least we could do is give folks the option of MOVING the BS to the "BS" section. As opposed to instantaneously banning folks for voicing their opinion.

Why ban us? if the bashees cant take the heat let THEM leave on their own accord. I was SLAAAAAAAAUGHTERED by thinkfast®, QD®, Scrappy & etc. but i took it and stuck around and now we are cool peeps. I am not, and wasn't then a bitch that whined about being bashed. It's the fucking INTERNET.

All in all it's not fair that we cannot quarrel with one another. The world isn't perfect. why must we play IA God and FORCE IA to be so? When did IA become fascist?

Real Talk.

[Maniacc]

IA sucks now. End of story.

Thank all the faggot moderators and pansy members running around.

[mocha latte cupcake]

i would like to point out that i am NOT a faggot moderator or pansy ass member. i'm a Jay Dee Em Supa Modz however real talk.

matthew mc motorcycle - your skeeting speed is nothing to be proud of. no one is impressed it takes you mere moments to skeet.

you so cute

[BobbyFresco]

and for the record, I have been one of the biggest e-assholes on this forum...People have voiced their hate for me...Whatever, I don't care...the fact is that the owner of this forum made some decisions and with those decisions came rules...rules that were designed to foster growth, both in numbers of members and revenue, in order to keep this website, which none of us pay for, running.....


I'm sorry but we don't have too much to bitch about when like I have said many times before, this forum allows its members to get away with waaaaaaaaaaaay more shit than most major forums do...

[Doppelgänger]

There is much more stupid on here now... pretty much anyone with 08/09 registration is a pawn and subject to everything. But the amount of stupid is overwhelming...which is why I don't post very much.

[Maniacc]

I have other forums that I post on and I only use IA when I'm REALLY FUCKING BORED so I don't really care.

[§treet_§peed]

I have other forums that I post on. I only use IA when I'm REALLY FUCKING BORED

so i guess that means you stay pretty fucking bored.

[Ed]

anything goes in the WL and KF.

go start drama with someone if thats what you really want.

and the faggot moderators do what they're told, if you've got a problem with it, take it up with one of the admins.

[Dirty Octopus™]

cuz it lacks entertainment i assume?

[Maniacc]

so i guess that means you stay pretty fucking bored.

Yes.

Between the hours of 9am-11am. Sometimes around 5pm too.

[Miranda]

Have I mentioned that TheGodfather is a dickless bitch?

[BobbyFresco]

what are they getting away with that inflicts so much damage to the forum?

At the end of the day, this is a business.
Like it or not, it is what it is...

If a select few on IA are bashing new members day in and day out, the numbers don't grow...If the numbers don't grow, sponsors don't sign on or stick around...

Like I said, it is what it is...a business...

[Maniacc]

cuz it lacks entertainment i assume?

Exactly my friend.

People are posting 'omg it's tuesday v.omgitstuesdayletspostthesameshitwedidyesterday' threads and that's all the action that happens here. Haha, gay! Where's the drama at?

are you taking offense to anything i stated Ed? if so why?

1. i never once called a moderator a "faggot" so please dont put words in my mouth
2. i never said i wanted to drama with anyone.

i simply stated that we need balance. if something gets started outside of WL and KF direct them here. the "BS" forum.

[BobbyFresco]

Exactly my friend.

People are posting 'omg it's tuesday v.omgitstuesdayletspostthesameshitwedidyesterday' threads and that's all the action that happens here. Haha, gay! Where's the drama at?

You want drama, start it homie....

Just keep it contained to the WL or the KF...simple as that...

[Maniacc]

At the end of the day, this is a business.

Noobs that leave deserve to leave.

Only the tough survive. Haha atleast that how IA used to run.

[Maniacc]

In another forum that I'm on. If people post borderline retarded shit it get's dumpstered or sent to the tardbin where the posts don't go up or people visit often. It's pretty much a garbage section.

Pretty much like the whoreslounge.

[Ed]

2. i never said i wanted to drama with anyone.

DO you're good homey, that was torwads maniac.

I do agree it was fun back then, and we need some of that and none of these bullshit threads "oh i broke a nail, what should i do?" or faggots coming to IA to ask for advice, shit back in the day when some kid asked IA for advice he was flamed to hell; or the daily threads, which i admit, sometimes can be entertaining, but most of the times they are useless; it's nothing like it used to be.

All I'm saying is, anything goes in the WL, except bashing mods or admins. The rules are clear. If you guys want drama, go start it, but in the right section. Don't call out the moderators for doing what they're told.

[BobbyFresco]

I understand what you're saying, Alex...and you know I have been on both ends...the one being fucked with and the one fucking back....most prominently being the one doing the fucking with......All I can say is that like Ed and I have both stated, we enforce the rules...we don't make the rules...

If people are that concerned about the new direction in which the forum has gone then by all means, please contact an admin....


One question though..and this isn't directed to anyone specifically :

What major automotive forum allows it members to bash and start drama as blatanly as this forum has?

[Maniacc]

But bashing moderators is fun.

[Ed]

But bashing moderators is fun.

lol honestly, i dont take offense to any of the shit you say to me, and i havent banned you for talking smack about me... but others do...

if it were up to me, you could talk smack about me all day, and i'd be like, whatever. but i cant do anything about it.

[Maniacc]

What major automotive forum allows it members to bash and start drama as blatanly as this forum has?

I know of a few boards that talk about cars and allow flaming to go down. Won't post up the names of 'em cause I don't want faggot members from here to start spamming their homosexuality over on them.


... but like you and ed have been saying. It's the admins fault. Fuck 'em.

[Dirty Octopus™]

At the end of the day, this is a business.

Like I said, it is what it is...a business...

i may be a little slow but please do enlighten me and explain the role of the sponsors signing and sticking around. (for real. im no business expert )

cuz from what i gather... if i am a "bashed" new member and i'd like to have a sponsor service me why would being bashed by someone irrelavent stop me from getting work done? you can call me a cock sucker mother fucker for posting bad pics all day long but that doesn't erase the fact that i may want Bucky to paint my wheels, silversol to sell me a swap, Mainstream or Battleground to install it, and Dynamic Sound to give me the hookup on 6x9s.

Nobody is going to make me stop using the resources that IA has provided. NOBODY

I know huh? We need more mods like you.

People just need to laugh it off and either fight back or just say whatever. But noooo... others are quick to get on their moderator panel and click on the ban icon like a buncha of pussies.

[mocha latte cupcake]

i ban alexis b/c its fun, no other reason that that usually besides my banning last all of about 5 minutes usually

i don't honestly think i've banned alex realistically...

[Maniacc]

So far the only mods that are in my kewl list are...

- Ed
- BobbyFresh
- Jm

... And I will continue to add more as soon as I start seeing their kewlness.

gotcha. thanks for somewhat understanding where i'm coming from.

What major automotive forum allows it members to bash and start drama as blatanly as this forum has?

i'm only on the other ones to find information. but from what ive seen quite a few words have been thrown around on H-T and to this i day get flamed like an electrical fire on ClubLexus.

Ok.

New members get bashed. Repeatedly.
A sponsor or prospective sponsor sees this.
Sponsors pay this website to advertise.
Sponsor money keeps this forum running without members having to pay because afterall, money doesn't grow on trees and forums require money to run, not hopes and dreams...
Sponsor decides to drop their support because they do not want to be associated with a web forum that allows it members to rail others based on gender, race, ethnicity, or any other variety of reasons, because it's not a good look...money goes away....

[Ed]

Can someone please make a drama thread in the WL?
