Funny thread this. On a serious note the biggest issue with this place these days (as touched on already) is the influx of new members who can't string a coherent English sentence together and the IQ that comes with that level of writing ability..... that and a few utterly patronising 'Johnny Come Lately's who think they know everything!

the fb page is because of those ******, rather than clog up scoobynet with us taking the mick we do it there.

the most common answer we get from dave innit in his mongster stickered wrx is

"u lot are just gelus as you all drive saxos and corsas"

If I had a FB account I would be there, but some Facebook execs said anyone without an account was a potential psychopath... a point of view I vehemently disagree with so much so I intend to hunt them all down, but once I have done that I may join up

I think we're all very similar, just some of us are more intelligent.

Sorry couldn't resist.

We're not really that far apart on our views, just chose different cars for different reasons.

Now **** off back to FB with your retard mates you *****.

Tubs, I was reading a flow-matched Injector thread yesterday and you was in it posting about stickers!

You're like a big sticker virgin.

I agree with pretty much all of you. The amount of threads I refrain from posting in because the OP can't string a sentence together is increasing almost exponentially.

Mine wasn't badly modified until i had the great idea of putting 60mm wider arches on with 35mm spacers. Now i cant find long enough wheel studs so the rear wheels are lost in the arches! Willing to admit i messed that one up

Mmm, that's an interesting opinion, Mr Haughty, that the ability to correctly parse the English language governs one's IQ. I would suggest that it's the diametric opposite, that in fact IQ governs one's ability to communicate effectively, both orally and in the written word, within parameters determined by clinical conditions, such as disleksa.

I will however use your own opinion as a method of determining where you might reside in the Binet Scale of things.

"Funny thread this" - sentences should not start with an adjective. They should also contain a verb and a noun at the very least.

"as touched on already" - the correct expression is "touched upon".

"'Johnny Come Lately's who think they know everything" - there appears to be a 'flying apostrophe' in that phrase - either that or one has been omitted, since the existence of a single apostrophe immediately before "Johnny" means that one should be expected at a later point in order to delineate the phrase or words intended for such, in which case you have written 'Johnny Come Lately' and added a superfluous letter 's'.
I would also add that if the intention was to pluralise 'Johnny come lately' then the correct expression is 'Johnnies come lately' in the same manner as 'Grands Prix', for there is more than one Johnny, not more than one 'Lately'.
A further compounding of the fault is that even then 'Lately', ending with a 'y', should be pluralised as ''Latelies'.

Anyway, I digress.........

....when you wrote about "a few utterly patronising 'Johnny Come Lately's who think they know everything" ooo wuz yew reefurring too butt???????

Oh, and it doesn't matter about 'newbies' imo.

I hope you understand the word 'sycophant'.
Either it applies to you or 'subliminal suggestion' does.

Whatever, I've just added you to the list of 'that Welsh tawt needs to be sorted out' brigade.

Sure, I look at some peoples cars and think 'WFT!', but I keep my opinions to myself.

I myself am a member of the badly modified Subaru page on Facebook, and I have a chuckle at some of the comments and pictures, but don't add pictures or comment on other peoples pride of joys myself.... as I appreciate all tastes are different.
Yes Sir , i totaly agree with that and told Tubbs about it . there's more of a damage in it instead of guiding to the "truth" of how the modding should be done .....
