Off the subject

Does anyone here feel this forum is being taken over with idealistic BS, by a small number of indivuals here? These forums are for technical discussion, not over idealims and people's opinion of whats morally right and wrong. Not only was this thread taken over and nearly closed over this, but now it has been carried over into the "13000 Repair" thread. If people have problems with how others conduct thier warranty claims, or anything else for that matter, thats what the general discussion forums and private messaging/email is for. Even despite Tim's efforts to control this, people are still harassing others over this issue, and its getting on my nerves.

I *try* to keep my emotion down in my posts. Sorry if im aggrevating anyone, i just wanted to vent some steam. Stuff like that really gripes my butt.

opinions are just like feet<!>........everyone's got one, and they all stink!!!

The people your talking about are morons, emotionally unstable and defective personality types that get on these forums and raise cain because it is the omly place they can. If they did it face to face in a bar, someone would tell them to shut up and if they didn't they would knock 'em out.
I tried contending with them but no good. A moron will always be a moron, It is in their character and their mind. Just ignore them.

Small talk is just like you said... making friendships. This opinionated BS only makes enemies and leaves a bad taste in everyones mouth. I do not personally attack and badger people; and i do not appreciate having it done to me. This thread is a good example.

Well, lets try to get off the negative note and back to the subject; Raw, bone-crushing, earthquaking, black smoke-pouring torque

The only way I know how to deal with some, and it is VERY tuff to do, read right around the post and keep going. Now I have not been completely successful with my approach, I am going to try much harder to ignore those who are only bating for a discussion on things they know nothing about…………..I ask all to try it.
It is worth a try, keep the techno stuff going.

i will try. its hard to keep quiet with individuals who post CRAP about things over and over again tho. such as in the auto tranny fluid thread.

i am going to put this water system on my truck today, but it might not be all complete by tonight. hope so tho

Good luck with your installation. Once you get everything bolted down where you want it, running the lines is pretty easy. Hope it performs well for you.
