    The way I see it, as far as the whole "taking the internet too seriously" thing goes, if you say something online...it's still you saying it. Unless it's an obvious joke, then I wouldn't say something that could be considered and insult. Saying something somewhere and then saying something completely different elsewhere is considered being two-faced. I don't know if some of you guys who promote the whole "nothing I say on the internet is serious" realize that, but if that's what you like presenting yourself as, then by all means, go for it. I don't see how you'll gain any respect other than that of your circle jerk two-faced "friends".

    There are a few people on here that I've had it out with and then been cool with in person....only because either A.) they apologized or B.) we worked it out through messages or something. As far as the whole Simon and CH@Dbee thing goes. Simon, you intentionally provoked him...knowing what you were doing. If someone said to me "I WILL find you at FD and you won't do shit"....uh...something is gonna happen. That's common sense. You may think the whole internet is a joke and things said shouldn't be taken seriously, but really bad things have happened because people didn't take things said seriously. It can go either way. And like I said before, if you really do enjoy being two-faced, then have at it. Most people usually don't tolerate people like that or waste their time with them.

    Why are you even bringing Chad into the picture? This was about a video, not Chad. I don't even have anything against Chad. Nothing even happened. He yelled, why was he mad? I have no idea. I say things on here obviously joking, everyone else knows it, I haven't had a single issue with anyone on here except for him and still don't care about that. I told him I'd find him, I did, I raised my cup to him, he yelled at me, I apologized for whatever I did to make him mad through a PM, end of story. I have nothing against the guy. It was funny.

    It's true what you say SOMETIMES is REALLY what you say, but you can tell if you have a brain half of IA is just being a smart ass. At least it use to be that way. If this was a serious site it'd be different, but ever since I joined IA it's been total BS posts.

    Find me where I've said something truly rude enough to even cause an issue. I've never made a personal insult, saying someones car is lame isn't exactly hostile.

    I still don't get why you brought up Chad and I though.

    I brought up the you and chad thing because that seemed to be the back story behind this. You post a video like that and expect people to think you're on a different subject when you made a thread a couple weeks earlier about how he and other people "take the internet too serious"?? Please! From what I understand, you and Chad don't really know each other (or didn't at the time). Simon, you have a knack for pestering people to the point where they get pissed off. Even you know that. I know you consider it BS fun. Some people don't see it that way. As far as I'm concerned, if someone makes a threat that they're gonna find me somewhere after we had some kind of fight and I don't know them really at all....I'm gonna do something about it or make sure nothing is gonna happen to me.

    Yes, I agree that most of IA is a joke and not serious at all, but that all really depends on who the conversation is between. There are some people on here that if they say something to me, I know they mean it. Not everyone is like you, Simon. Some people don't do the whole two-faced thing. I sure as hell know that if I say something to someone online...that's exactly what I'd say to their face.

    As for really bringing up the Chad thing...it's more of an example than anything else. I still think your video is pretty obvious with the relation to what happened between you two. Whether you meant it to refer to that or not, you can't honeslty expect people to think differently. Hell, even your little friend that posted referred back to it.

    First I defiantly didn't post this to relate the two. I was browsing internet car videos and found this after watching the one with the ricer GTO and the biker stunt kid selling his "class" when a pro group came to own him.

    I don't know Chad, which is why I say I have nothing against him, I can't figure out how some people have true hate towards people they have never met. I met some guys I truly disliked here and we always fought and we ended up being really cool. I know I'm not the same as others, just speaking for myself.

    If you really cared so much about all of this you'd stop bringing Chad up, like I said I apologized, that should be the end of it. If I wanted to start a two month old convo about Chad I would of mentioned it, I posted this on other sites too I guess I wanted more Chad arguing there too right? Especially since he's not even on there and this is the only site that knows anything about that?

    Chad can speak for himself by the way if this was pissing him off. This video isn't even exactly like Chad and I. This is about calling cars slow and fast...at least Chad was mad for something I said not involving cars.

    I've met QD and he acts nothing like he does on IA, in real life he's REALLY mean and hurts people physically.
