It seems like this thread is being used to attack one member in particular, a member who has been on this forum for years.
It's a real shame that some members feel offended or even outraged by the fact that another happens to own a high value vehicle. They are even more enraged by the fact that he posts pics of said vehicle outside his house that happens to look nicer than theirs.
Why not just wear a sign around your neck that says 'insecure'?

That does seem to be the theme Ding. They do say envy is a cruel mistress. If it's not envy (which no doubt we'll be told vociferously it isn't) then what is the source of all this bitterness and tension. Just because a bloke has done well and chooses to post on this board does not qualify him as a target for personal attacks. Infact I think some posters would be advised to go and have a ****, relieve some of that tension. Fortunately Trout has a thick enough skin to withstand this barrage. Trout I'd stick some more photos up as well as a middle finger really get them frothing at the mouth.

I have not met Trout personally but I really can't see why so many people on here have slated him.
If what he says is right about his background and I have no reason to doubt it, then good on him. No doubt he has worked bloody hard for what he has got and has every right to be proud of that.

I think some people need to have another look at what they posted and question how they'd like that thrown back at them if the tables were reveresed! Especially when they are so unfounded and based on ill-perceived rhetoric they 'deserve' or have more right to be here more than someone else.
If anything shows them up for who they really are, its in this thread.

This post is absolutely hilarious. It is also one of the most arrogant self-absorbed posts I have had the pleasure of enjoying on Scoobynet.
As a number of people on here have made crystal clear, there is no doubt I am one of, if not THE, key targets of this thread and in a number of other posts.
Let's lay out some facts...
I have been a member of this BBS since there were only 300 members in total - so if anyone has a right to be here then I would stake that as a pretty good claim.
I have also owned two Subarus - last year I sponsored a Subaru race car. Sounds pretty SUBARU to me. As a founding member I was also one of the very first to invest the time and money to build a 500bhp Subaru, something which is now commonplace - in 2001 it was really groundbreaking.
As for working for a living. Don't make me fecking laugh you jumped up idiot. I have built my own business up from nothing. Six years ago I had nothing but a mortgage and a pregnant wife. Everything I have I had worked for myself. I have inherited nothing. I have borrowed nothing, I have been given nothing.
As for the class warriors, my mother was a 16 year girl from one of the roughest estates in Middlesborough. Father, no idea. Really fecking bourgeois, eh, Tony?
Scoobynet has gone downhill - really bloody funny from a member here since 2009.
Done. Out.

Whatever conflicts are going on here, let's not drive a decent bloke out of SN. It seems harmless enough when you're not on the receiving end, but imagine having a thread made about you where people basically try to pick out one fault and make it into a bigger deal than it actually is. We all have a different outlook on life, and there's no saying that 1 in particular is any better than another in anything but an individual opinion.
Let's not pretend we can get the measure of someone from some posts they make on a forum.

What I find incredible is that, in reality, “life” is so simple and consists of a few basic rules and principles - get those right and everything else (whatever that else is) falls into place.
And I am always amazed how hard people find it.
Be respectful and kind to everyone you meet. (whether that someone is working behind the till at a shop or the chairman of an investment bank), basically employ the art of empathy
Be positive, enthusiastic, willing to try and above all smile
and importantly concentrate on your own life not other peoples
I suspect the successful people on here (and I am not talking about bank balances) understand this too

I'm not trying to be abrasive here Hodgy0_2 but that sounds like the pious morality of a child; be 'nice' and 'kind', love thy neighbor, hope the rivers flow with chocolate and see beautiful butterflys...and you will be a 'success' etc etc. Why not write a poem about this?
You have obviously never heard of Machiavelli because he would say you are 100% wrong.

and being 100% wrong feels very right to me

Sorry to say that SN is not full of muppets but full of ***** who take great pleasure in lording it over the less fortunate who actually have to work for what they have instead of sitting behind a desk pushing a pen about shouting "YOUR FIRED"
Why anyone with a jumped up Volkswagon Beetle feels the need to be a member of a Subaru forum is beyond me, and then plaster the site with photo's of said Volkswagon Beetle in front of there mansion is just ***** waving of epic proportion.
I dont need to brag about how big my **** is or how much money I have or that I have more than 1 property unmortgaged or how many holidays I take a year or exactly what drugs I sell to achieve what I have.
Get a ****ing life and go bore someone else who really cares about how big your bank balance is, or which Volkswagon your now driving, somewhere like the girls off the only way is Essex as this is a Subaru forum FFS
SN has gone downhill and is just a glorified advertising board with adverts on every post its ridiculous

As for working for a living. Don't make me fecking laugh you jumped up idiot. I have built my own business up from nothing. Six years ago I had nothing but a mortgage and a pregnant wife. Everything I have I had worked for myself. I have inherited nothing. I have borrowed nothing, I have been given nothing.
As for the class warriors, my mother was a 16 year girl from one of the roughest estates in Middlesborough. Father, no idea. Really fecking bourgeois, eh, Tony?
Scoobynet has gone downhill - really bloody funny from a member here since 2009.
Done. Out.

You're cool, Trouty. I did accuse you of sophistry the other day, but then you were defending banks and that can only be done by sophists. Other than that, nice Porsche.

Another day at scoobynet towers
another pop at another member, thinly veiled as a discussion topic.
Cant see what all the fuss is about, its a forum of people ffs, not all are going to see eye to eye, or get along, that's life peeps
I think i've had a dig at most of the posters in this thread, at some time and they too at me. Do i take it personally? no , Should I? thats debatable, if i did then i certainly wouldnt fanny about with a thread whinging about it, it would be a straight to the point reply
At the end if the day, if you dont like somone that much, use the ignore function,
Makes the three posts a day i can see, so much easier to get through
As for Trout..
He has a Porsche, Whats wrong with that?
He likes fishing, deffo nowt wrong with that,
His taste in hi-fi is questionable, but then who's isnt
He speaks his mind, (who dosent, although he makes more sense than me )

It's very simple: Having an opinion on someone (or anything for that matter) is a bit like having a ****.
It's good to have one
But please don't ram it down our throats!
As far as I can work out the purpose of this thread is for some people to do exactly that. If you find someone objectionable, ignore them -seeking to single them out to belittle them is not in the community interest and, frankly, just a wee bit immature! If, in your estimation, the community is predominantly composed of individuals you find objectionable, then quit wasting your time on here and just find somewhere else with a demographic more to your liking!
People have had a chance to let off steam, some are lucky to have escaped infraction for being nasty to other members and all that can be achived by leaving it open is to instigate new conflict or perpetuate existing ones!
