Default Enough Is Enough Already!!!

Im getting sick of the smack talk on the shops in the western section. If this keeps up I wouldnt be surprised if the ones that sponsor this site pulled out, and if no new ones came in.

If you had a bad experience at a shop then deal with the shop. if you are too ***** to deal with them, then eat your words, dont try to spread slander.

One of these days a shop is going to sue one of these people for slander, and then all **** will break loose.

Wait a second, didn't you start that thread about CMS before you worked anything out with them? That whole dyno issue?

Not saying i don't agree with this post, but isn't it a lil hypocritical?

i agree but i also agree with competition, its what drives these shops to be more affordable, and stretch out further to gain new customers, not just sit and wait, sometimes a little **** talking is good, stirs up the blood, gets people working to make better products, hell if you were the only person in town doing it, and making a killing, who and what is going to drive the price down or make you take more pride and quality and time in your work, thats what separates the men from the girls, good ol American competition. ahhhh what a wonderful thing

I agree that competition is great, but whats been happening isnt the result of competition, its the result of ungreatful little pansies who dont respect legitimate businesses.
