At some point...

We all get fed up with the idiots that aren't willing to do the research to figure out their cars. Granted I've got a lot of posts and a bunch of BS under my belt by this time but I'm sorry.

READ THE DAMN STICKYS SO WE DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER REALLY STUPID QUESTIONS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED.!!!

hahaha.. I am getting badder as each day goes by.. I am beyond the point of no return.. Give me a new 13 GT 500 an move on I can only post sarcastic replys at this point.

It just gets agrivating when you see the same questions and some of them are posted on the same day. This is a fantastic resource to learn about the cars as well as the chasis but it just seems that no one ever wants to take the time to learn about them. People just want a quick answer that will get them by so they can screw up with something else. I just don't get it.

Umm, so hey guys. Sorry if this is a dumb question but....Just wondering what's the best oil to run? Dino or synthetic? Also what's the best spark plug and how much should I gap them? I wanna run 10s but don't wanna spend more than $3000...how would I do that? Thanks!

Thats why I been here for 2-3 yrs and I dont have a car yet. So when I get a Buick, I wont be one of them. Read read and read some more,I always found answer's to my questions. It happens all over the place. On a jeep forume im on, theres a section thats just for lift kits/tire questions. But everyone ask's question about lift kits and tires in OEM tech. I rarely visit that site anymore. Its the younger generation that doesn't want to read to get there answer, just want it given to them

You know there are plenty of times that I have seen a question posted time and time again IE. it's that time of year for those AC questions.
But with that said I know I don't have to respond to them, or even read the post if it is something that has been posted before. It does not bother me to much. I also know that you don't always get good results with the search feature. Plus we are here to help.

I will tell you something that is way more upsetting is when you find something in the for sale section and post you may be interested in the item, and someone a few post later say's " I will take it" and buys it out from under you. Now that pi$$es me of.
I mean now you almost have to just say "I want it" before you get all the info on it. I would rather not string someone along like that. I post I am interested in the item
1 because I don't have, and can't afford to spend haphazardly
2 I want to make sure there are no surprises with the item
3 I want to make sure it is exactly what I need ( see #1)
I don't understand why buyers and sellers have no scruples and don't go in first come first serve basis. And the same goes to the guys that don't post on the post itself that they want it, they try to go through the back door to get it

I do respect what you have to say Charlie you are very knowledgeable and helpful. And have passed on good information to me. But that's what this site is for. Don't want to upset you just my 2 cents

Well to be honest, this started with a guy asking about GTA wheels. I told him to read the sticky and he smarted off to me. I didn't waste him but I did get pissed. Come on guys, we've got the stickys there for a reason. I just got fed up and had to say something for a change.

 

[larry33kc]

Now that I understand, and I don't have a problem with your rant for this. There is no reason to be rude when someone is trying to help.

 

[aminga]

Think we can put a sticky in the How To section that it's not a place to ask HOW do do something.

Is it possible to make a sticky with answers, or links to the appropriate threads, for these common topics?

 

[TURBOPOWERED68]

Rude -- What about the guy that sends a PM asking for help -you take your time responding and never even get a thank you

I just did in the suspension section for this reason. It's been added to which is what I was hoping for. Some sections (feedback) have so many stickys that we might as well make a seperate section just for them. If someone can find a bunch of links for a specific section and put them together in 1 post then I can see about making it a sticky for that section so we can save some time for everyone.

Yeah, that P**** me off . . . but you only get one chance . . . common courtesy is lost in today's world. Everyone thinks you owe them something.
