As the title says, this thread is really to concentrate on all the negative emotions you might have about me.
ALL REASONABLE ISSUES WILL BE ADDRESSED.
I'm not doing this to PW. Rather, I've realized that some people may not enjoy all of my posts and threads, more importantly, some find them offensive and derogatory. Whatever your beef is with me, here's the place and time to make it known. I consider EVERY member on here my friend, so I won't backlash at anyone - that I promise you. I'm not, however, saying that I won't argue those points that I consider unreasonable - but that's ok, because we all can and should express our opinions. More importantly, in such discussions the truth usually becomes evident. I'm not trying to start any fights here and I'd appreciate if you kept this thread serious - I would like to know, how I can be a better member of the 5series.net community - please help, if you too feel that this community is something to fight for.

(1) You want to pull your fenders
(2) You want to run stretched tires
(3) You won't buy my rims
I have zero beef with you sir!

Well first of all, I commend you for choosing this approach...thanks! 
As far as complaints, without giving it any real thought right now, I'd say you already fixed the one that I heard the most complaints about...your "Word of the Day" posts became a little much lately. I'm happy that you figured that out already and you've agreed to not post them anymore. Thanks again.

I'll buy a set from you sooner or later

One side note though: I did not start this thread to collect compliments. I REALLY want every one to drop me a word about what they could do without. I realize that it is impossible to please everyone at all times, but I never want anyone to feel uncomfortable because of me, so please, tell me if you feel I'm doing something - ANYTHING wrong here.

Just don't back-stab me - its painful to get that from someone I consider a friend. Hence, this thread.
Oh V...where to begin? j/k You, just like the rest of us, have made mistakes on this forum. Seeing the recent events unfold, the exodus of senior members, and the necessity of moderators to
step in and babysit adults has been a wakeup call. Kudos for being one of the first to step up and make this a better forum!
And I quote you, "RESPECT!"

To everyone:
Again, I'm not trying to collect compliments here, guys - I would like to see people discuss real issues, please. I'm sure there are some and I know we can work it all out. If you don't bring it to me personally and I never know what is causing discomfort to you, how can you expect me to be better? So please, guys - friends! - do post your issues and I promise you: I'll work on each and every reasonable issue that is brought up. Lastly, if you just want to get me banned and don't care to discuss anything with me directly, it is - and will continue to be - your loss.

As one of the younger members I did enjoy the word of the day
, yet I do agree that it doesn't belong on the forum. I like the approaches you have taken to better the forum and thank you for maintaining the integrity of the forum
