exactly who do you define as trolls? not all stupid people are trolls, and not all trolls are stupid people. altho they often go hand in hand, i'll admit.

this is a private site, and as such a priviledge to post on. but if we were to ban everyone that was stupid or hardheaded...well it'd just be a better site. i can't argue that. but its not who we are. theres a spirit this website follows, and thats not part of it.

the site has become more popular, so more people have joined, and thus more idiots. we are still 100x better than most of the other forums.

i agree this is by far the best and most informative site but, to me, it seems as if there is a major increase in the amount of people on this board that are absolutly retarded...it really bothers me...i'd like to be a moderator but i don't think it work to well because there would be a lot of locked threads becasue i don't have the patience to let some of these threads to go on like they do

i don't think that would be good...who cares if they don't anything but when they state "facts" that are no where near true it is so annoying...just was in a thread where someone was saying the 2 valve mustang gt engine cannot make more than 320hp...wtf...this is the kind of stuff i see in almost every other thread

look at the two majority political parties. they're the most popular, and hence generally contain more idiots.

this site is the ****. best on the net. it was only a matter of time before more idiots flocked to us.
