I'm glad i'm from the GTA. BTW I drove all winter with mine and no problems. (Just to prove a point)

Had a brain removed, I think I know that guy

[rowan]

[ChopstickHero]

those west coast peeps are messed up

[Disco]

I suggest we rather stop posting there, just leave them alone please. http://msg.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/blush.gif

Thank you.

[freak005]

Uhh, why?

[rowan]

He doesn't want you to make his former west-coast brothers cry! Don't you get it??
Bully. http://msg.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

I was thinking the same thing... but I want to hear it from him... http://msg.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

I'm such a meanie... hope they don't get their mommies and daddies after me.

I agree that the Vancouver club doesn't look like a club anymore. Since we are a well-organized club here there is no point to start flaming ppl there for what they do or say. It just has nothing to do with us.

And about the CAI thing, that guy there is just freaking ppl out by saying that, but I don't think he made up the story so he's just trying to tell me to be a little more cautious if they have the CAI installed, that's it. He only said "i do NOT reccommend the cai." He didn't say "DON'T USE THE CAI". Well it's just a recommendation. I don't think he has done anything wrong, but of course that "5 Years" thing is a bit too much.

Oh Rowan, I need to clarify something here. I wasn't a member in the Vancouver board so I don't know any of those guys. Can't say they are my "former west-coast bro". heehee

See but the thing is, if any of them knew how to read, they'd all realize that all I've ever been asking for from the guy is PROOF that the CAI blew the engines. Instead, he got all
b!tchy and defensive, and they all jumped to protect him, because they think he can get them cheap mods.

Just like I said in another post on there, the only meet these buggers will ever be able to organize is a swap meet.

Hey Freak, sometimes you are funny but other times you are annoying and lack compassion. I don't know you personally like I know most of my club mates but I'm getting the impression that you are an asshole in real life....

Andrew is right let's lay off the other clubs and let them do what is comfortable with themselves. Where some clubs fail others will succeed, we just happen to have a lot of enthusiastic and generous people that make our club great.

[freak005]

Dood, if you feel it's safe to assume I'm an asshole in real life based on my posts herein, then I suppose it's safe for me to assume you are an egotistical, megalomaniacal, @ss-backwards mouth breather?

All I try to do with my posts on the Van board is point out places that they could improve, either personally or as a club. In my own little 'asshole' way, I am trying to make them better. Some of them realize what I say rings true. Unfortunately, the majority seem to just get defensive.

Same as with my posts here, unless I'm simply (and obviously) just trying to have some fun. You of all people are the last person I would expect to come out attacking my posting style, considering some of the sh!t you've posted here, obviously meant all in good fun, that could easily be taken other ways.

People have to learn to f@rking lighten up. And, again, really, point out to me exactly what is wrong with anything I've posted on the Van board? I never post lies, and I don't make sh!t up... I simply call out things that I see as wrong, or post observations based on the tone of the board in general. If the person who posted what I'm calling them on comes back with a legitimate response that shows me I was mistaken, I will stand corrected. If they zing me right back, (if called for) I don't just go off in a huff, or whine about it... I'll either continue the banter, or bow to the better 'zinger'.

Never took you for a whiner or liar.

Sure I'm abrasive but most my club mates know the better side of me too cause I have actually attended meets and they have seen both sides to my personality (I wasn't just an rude mofo to become an officer of this club). Your personal attacks border on being deconstructive to the process of getting to know our club mates. Why don't you make it out to one of our meets and introduce yourself before you goof on the clubs members - cause I'm not cool with some stranger harassing my friends. If you can't make it to the meets at least have the forethought to be human once in a while so we all don't think you're and ass.

I think you two need to take a "Time Out". Now Dave..... you stand in that corner..... Freak..... you stand in the other corner. When your done, I want you two to kiss and make up.

[freak005]

Oh Dave, now you've gone and hurt my feeling.

I have shown my 'human' side. whenever anyone asked for a graphic to help the club out (banner/sticker design) I did one up immediately, and posted it. Someone asked about tinting, (a while back) I posted a lot of pertinent helpful information that I had retained from another source. When I have hippie-love help to give, I do so. But when I think someone needs a kick in the arse back to reality, I'll give it, too.

The only person I've ever really 'personally attacked' was you, and maybe Brent... and a couple of zingers at Nick... but all of them were meant in good fun, and from what i could tell, were taken as such (until now?).

I've explained that I can't make it to meets due to other commitments. (The only days I don't consistently work 14+ hours are Wednesdays and Sundays) I've also explained that I come to learn about my vehicle, and share any knowledge that I have, which I have done where appropriate. When I've been able to help the club out in other ways, I've offered to do so. As well, whenever another opportunity arises that I can 'love the bunch' in whatever way, I will.

All better now? *sniff*

[MP5Navy]

But Jayyyyyyyy he started it.

Hey Jay, what gives? Are you the police regarding all member relations? Me and Freak are okay with one another we are just sharing a difference of opinions. I don't think either one of us will pay attention to your advice.

[rowan]

No need to keep on hatin' on the Van guys. Obviously there are some issues with people out there, but in the grand scheme of things we will need to co-ordinate our efforts as m-p enthusiasts.
Remember, there are more people in California than our whole damned country so we need everyone we can get to show support for these cars, and fellow clubmates.

Let's just hope that some more reasonable people from out West start taking an interest in putting something together.

Anyone who wants to argue with people on the Van board, do it on there .. if we want to check in on the action I'm sure most of us know where the board is. No need to drag it over. It's like the WRX vs. Protege thing on i-club/protegeclub.

Play nice m0th3rfkk3rs .. or else .. muwahahaha  http://msg.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif

Dave's a good guy (even if he sucks at Gran Turismo).
Freak's a good guy (I think, somewhere deep down...).
Lots of people on the Van board get uppity when challenged about anything and don't like to have rational discussions. Pretty simple.

[freak005]

I AM a good guy, really I am....

I just have... issues... http://msg.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif
