88jerseyiroc, what purpose would it serve a club that is trying to reach out to f-body and muscle car enthusiasts of all ages to allow people to be flamed until they left?
the way to learn is to read and discuss. i know many of our younger members do not have the knowledge comperable to thsoe of us that have been around a long time, but you also have to understand that they are not going to attain more knowledge by being told to go away or made fun of when they ask a question. i sort of doubt anyone here rebuilt a small block with in 10 mins of jumping out of the womb, so i doubt most of us were much differnt at 14 or 15 years old than many of the younger members around today.
i would also like out point out that the no-flaming rule is not new. rules of reasonable conduct and treatment of other members were a part of the original user agreement as well. so it is defiantely waaaaayyyyyy too late to try to recall that rule.
your second statement seems to contridict your first point as well. you complain about stupid posts, then say that we shoudl head to starbucks if we want intelligent conversation? which way do you want it? stupid or smart?
last i checked being a jerk to people jsut because they don't know as much and swearing every other word are not requirements of being a gearhead.
