Well, your humor may not be the taste of some members, but you post stuff in the lounge and that's kinda what the lounge is for. I see no reason to denounce you. Like you said, if it bothers you don't read it
Right on I'll admit as well that being on here and getting to know some of u guys has changed my posting style, looking back on some of my own posts I can agree and say boo! But this forum isn't like other forums and I've come to really respect some of u guys and your intelligence level that's for sure! And while I'm sucking ass lemme also say thanks mark, das, ice and Rudy I've said it before, you all are extremely fair and make a great forum even better

Hey Iceman and Rudy are VERY reasonable and when they do feel the need to say something it usually changes the way a lot of members post. You are not alone, they spoke and I changed some things I was doing too (they are kind of annoying like that, so damn reasonable it's impossible to argue )

My 2 cents...The E60 being a mature platform and the forum having possibly covered every question that can come up about this car should NOT be a reason for the nasty attitudes on this forum lately. If someone asks a question that's been addressed many times, a polite suggestion to search would suffice....or just don't reply to the thread if you're annoyed. It's no excuse for anyone to get that bothered to start bashing people. This is frankly not an excuse and I honestly do not think it's the root cause of the problems we're seeing lately.

I've been very frustrated with the forum as well and I feel the blame is on new and old members alike. It's not all on the newbies and the "senior" members are not without fault either.

Wow, well said Tony. I have to say I agree, I am relatively new here, I have (as I have admitted) posted my share of negativity. I think most people are reasonable and like Rudy suggested, if we have an issue with the turn a post takes (whether it be by a "senior" member or noob) we should say so. It is up to us to keep the forum a family and keep members like you and bespoke from going elsewhere.

Not to mention I like looking at your car so you better not go anywhere - it gives me something to strive for

Nah, no comment. Not worth it.

Bespoke1 - Since this is a such a great place, you might want to consider contributing. You've obviously learned a lot since May 2008 and this forum has probably saved you a few dollars.
