I understand there is a history and you may know each other and all that, but unless you are the one or two that started this site, or a MOD, you're just another member like the rest of us - yeah you've been around and I can certainly respect that if you act in a manner that deserves respect - and ALOT of you DO - but alot don't too. And not all of us "newbies" are second class citizens who just barely could afford to buy an E60 now that its outdated. In fact it could be argued that we are the smart ones, the ones who waited for all the bugs to be worked out and who won't be eating all that first or second or third year depreciation.

Maybe its time for some new high posters, some newly formed friendships to become the ones who help the newbies coming along. Seems like alot of you are sick and bored of it. What turns me away sometimes is the arrogant attitude some of the members (usually high posters) portray. We're all here to learn, share, and have fun along the way. If you're bored of the site, think its going down hill, whatever, then stay OFF. There are plenty of us who are still learning, still having fun, and making our own relationships and friends. Oh, and if you're one of those with an E60 and are jealous or unable to "upgrade" to the new F10, don't take it out on us. I'm happy, very happy, with my E60 and will be for a long time. I also happened to grow to appreciate the F10 and what it is. I don't hate on it, or the site. Too me its still fairly new and I'm enjoying them both. don't ruin it for me because "you" think you know it all and don't have anything else to learn.

Oh well, my nonsense two cents, FWIW.

also: post count and/or join date has nothing to do with how you represent yourself here and how you are perceived by others here....

Bha - Hate to say it bud, but the joke was kind of you. Some other folks were in on my replies to you on that other thread. It was a bit of a joke between some of us. Sorry that you bit so bad.

And no Gene, I'm not going to tell him it's a lot, not alot.

F10 feels very different than e60, no questions about it. Yes, it is bigger, has lighter steering but BMW dynamics is still there.

Knowing that I've made it a point to meet just about all of the folks on this forum in person (many of whom we play constant jokes on), makes this even more classic. Good stuff! This big vagina will be at the Boiling Crab in two weeks, you little vagina. Since I know where you live, I'm stopping by your house after dinner and leaving a surprise in your RPI scoops.

And if you PM me anymore threads to mess with people on, I'm going to report you to Genesballs and have you banned. I feel bad for this guy now. He's all bummed out. Way to go dick!

AND the fact that it did happen made this site a little more fun the past three days now didn't it. My plan all along so the joke is really on you! Now, lets get together for a beer sometime. We come to New York a few times a year. Oh, and I drink Sam Adams - winter lager.

I love it when a plan comes together, paybacks a bitch.

Come to our next Meet. I am usually the one that organizes them in the Tri-State Area. Granted, there won't be one for a while, but once the Spring rolls around, I'll most likely organize one, as everyone always asks me to. And yeah, I'll buy the first round.
