"This is the land of free speach. What's the matter, you don't like it? If you don't, go back to CFG's boards where you are told what to post. Capice? "
You mean, like you just did, Mr. Admin?
Pretty rude welcome to a new member. If you're actually curious and have the time, you might do a search of all my posts on that other Board and find that I am invariably pretty well-balanced when it comes to either inquisitive and/or informative posts on about Porsches or driving. Would assume you didn't, or you might not have shot me with your itchy trigger finger so quickly.
I looked at your Board for the very first time yesterday .... sorry, wasn't even aware of it. I was immediately struck by magnitude of the immature, childish behavior of ALL of you .... on BOTH Boards who have this incessant need to "go to war!" Couldn't resist commenting on the silliness, then and again now. Reasonable people have to admit that when there are plethora posts containing phrases such as "I hope so and so gets *********" or "He's a homosexual", etc. that your claim of free speech may be true ..... but of questionable value to people who sincerely visit your board looking to trade ideas.
I will lurk on the sidelines, looking for info and, perhaps asking questions. If it turns out that I really do find valuable info ..... or can provide info to respectable and respectful people ..... I will stay on-line. If it turns out to be just a gossip column, you can have your bandwidth back for use by others.
There's an old expression: "Conflict either builds charactor ...... or reveals it." I'm curious to see what this Board is really all about.

TTCarrera,
There are likely a few things youi don't understand about this board. Note the title of this particular forum - It clearly is a place to get silly and to vent. There is no intention for this one to be about cars. There is another topic area here to discuss cars. Most all of the active posters here are active, very helpful folks on Rennlist and have tried to do the same on CFG's boards. We see posts on Rennlist that we would like to comment on but they are silly, argumentative, etc. We do not wish to see Rennlist degraded to the level of many other places on the Internet, so we usually (not always) avoid the temptation to post immature responses on Rennlist. We have this outlet to do so.
These, by the way, are my opinion. There is no stated mission here that supports what I said, it is just the way it has turned out. The maturity of Rennlist (and very few other boards) is not the result of everyone being mature all the time. It is the result of a community where people have the freedom to choose to be mature, can be silly and can even find other outlets for immature posts.
If you are going to hang around here looking for good p-car info, you are seriously in the wrong place. Try the other topic area (though it is not very active) or Rennlist.

That explains it ....... what a great idea! To keep Rennlist mature everyone jumps over to here to be silly.
Thanks. Over & out.

...To keep Rennlist mature everyone jumps over to here to be silly... Hmmm - I think that's a terrific idea - wish I could take credit for it.... But, really - you should try "Rennteam" if you want "maturity", though. There is a neat Admin over by the name of "RC" there who will welcome all your posts (well - "any" post might be more to the point). You don't have to post much either to have the "Welcome Mat" rolled out - as either "RC" or "CR" (hmmm? ) really love their users....

Isn't this the same RC who thought the name "Rennlist" was stupid because it was an acronym of a German (Renn) and English (List) words? If so, I wonder what he has to say about the name "Rennteam!"

TTCarrera - Just to emphasize the point of this topic check out the "993 Airheads Discussion" topic and see the difference in style of post...same people, different types of posts. This topic is used for venting, no help intend here. Keeps the silly threads from showing up in the more technical threads (although a bit of levity is always good).
It's better that the community manage itself than to have someone dictate how you do things.

You think you can post whatever you want. I tell you that is not true. I know who all you are and will get you for what you do to me and my boards. You think you are so much smarter than other persons but you are not so much smarter. I know all you tricks and I have many of mine ready to go at you. You will see and you will regret what you done.

C - Does that threat include me? You tired many times to block me on your board and it didn't work. You think you can find me - Ha. On the other hand, I know a lot about you. I get all kinds of info from your system. Right now you are posting from your home country, but you are not at home. Business trip? Don't bother to answer because I know the truth. You really should install better security software on your PC. Shall we continue to chat here, or should we move it back to your living room?

A word from the webmaster of p-car.com
TTCarrera,
SundayDrive, and The Pope have already answered your curiosity about why there were so much immature, childish posts in this section of the discussion board.
Time over time many "paying members" of the Rennlist discussion board will have some very funny posts that they typed up but ended in the trash because they refrained themselves from posting it simply because they have respect others and the fear that it may cause any unwanted conflicts. Some of these posts ended up getting passed around as private e-mails and I can tell you they are truly very funny. And that's the reason why I decided to add an additional discussion section on the p-car.com discussion board area. I thought it was such a waste not to share those humorous posts. That's really the "ONLY" reason why I allow "Guest" to make posts, because simply some people may still want to protect their own identity.
That's really yet, it was not intended to start a war with anyone, or to rage hate against another group of people.
I don't enforce the content of the posts, so there is no way to control the direction of that particular board. There are plenty of technical information on the other board where everyone concentrates on sharing technical data.
As for posting as "Guest", again the only reason I opened that option up is for people to protect their identity when making their "supposedly" funny post. Not for someone to hide their identity when they want to make a threat against another person.
So instead of deleting the post made by "C" and "Freeman" , I will just post their IP address so some of you may be able to find out who they are.
And if the “Guest” option continues to be abused I will turn off the feature and everyone will only be allow to post as registered member.
So, guys (I don't think there are any gals on this board). Just relax and enjoy the reading. No need to kill each other or make threats. If anyone feel the need for some anger release, please come see me in person I have a complete collection of arsenals that you can use to vent your anger. You'll just nee to buy your own bullets and grenades.
"C" IP address is 217.5.167.226 "Freeman" IP address is 198.81.17.161

Or you could just walk in with your 6 guns blazin' and no bandana covering your face and hiding your identity.
Like that dumbass E. J. has a habit of doing.

To Free Man:
You might be free but a man, you're certainly not as long as you cowardly hide behind that computer and IP of yours.
To C:
The same goes for you.
To All:
The board members have unanimously voted for banning guest posting. As of immediately, guest posting is disabled.
