Face it guys, we know what the rooster is. And we know his "advice" and "excellent" pink mini is here to stay.

Enough said.

I liked www.turbominis.com more anyways.

It's been fun, but this place is done. I have no hatred, and appreciate the good times. But this place now belongs to Tony and his pink mini.

Asks us to watch our language and be civil while simultaniously condoning someone taking a figurative dump in nearly every thread.

 

Jemal, at one time I respected you as a leader of this group (let's differentiate that from respect as a person). And the fact that you "represent" MiniMania.. well. I'm sure you can appreciate the correlation I'm proposing.

I've got a lot of inappropriate responses then... 

It probably isn't fair to the 'community' to allow someone to alienate, deliberately offend, willfully disrupt and so on, is it.

What would you have me say??   I suspect he is more "normal" than you think, and intentionally puts up stuff to rile you up.  Unfortunately, it works quite well!  Or perhaps he has a learning disability! I don't know.  Either way your response earlier was entirely inappropriate.

It seems some of you think we operate this as a public service where you can go for counseling!  While I agree that counseling is probably good for many people, this is not the place for it.  Real Psychology majors should study this forum for it's glimpses of human nature.... EVEN WHEN WE KNOW BETTER!

Jemal, how about a reply to this request, then:

OK, more insider info....  We, Mini Mania, predate the technology that you are all so used to. We had a website and a forum when google's founders were smoking bongs thinking about what college to attend!!!

Why do you care?  With all the devices available to the average household (and even BELOW average households!!), it is not possible for us to "really" know who you are!  We can't get into a banning game with someone hell-bent on being a disruption.  Therefore boys and girls, the most logical approach is to live and let live, and recall the words of the unfortunate focal point of a mob scene gone wrong (you know.... what our society does when a pro team wins a championship, or a verdict of a big public trial goes against popular consensus), who famously said "can't we all get along".  

Or fall back to the point I keep making.... It takes a lot of work to be an idiot. Payment for those folks is getting people riled up.  Ignore them, and you've stopped payment!  They move on to annoy others, or fade back into irrelevance.

Jemal, I've been mulling over this sentence for a while now and am not quite sure I understand what you're saying. 

Are you saying that 'Tony' is a somewhat normal guy and just gets his jollies being stupid?  Or to put it differently, he's working hard at being an idiot?

E-mail me if you'd like -

I'm sensing MUCH more hostility, not to mention vulgarity from your responses to the Robster.  Perhaps some of you need to look into your own selves to explore the reasons for this hostility.  Jeg in particular, I feel you are doing a poor job ignoring him!  Some people are very poorly armed for a battle of wits, and their attempts at humor land with a thud!  Just let it go rather than responding in vulgar terms.  lease try to remember this is our living room!  Many of you feel it is your own private place , where you can dictate how others should behave.  The least you can do is be civil and set a good example yourselves....

The term "douchebag" generally refers to a male with a certain combination of obnoxious characteristics related to attitude, social ineptitude, public behavior. A more apt description you could not find. 

The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it. G.B.S. Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. Oscar Wilde

Actually, I think it was a matter of minutes in which I told you the price of the carb would be $100 more than my original asking price. And that offer still stands. I will sell you anything I have for sale at a 225% markup. Just for you buddy. Everyone else gets it at listed price. You should see how cheap I let my wheels and tires go to another forum member. They seemed quite happy with the price and transaction.

And if you think I'm spamming you for some reason, don't flatter yourself. I wouldn't waste my time or risk jail time for someone as inconsequential as you.

BLUF: Set spam filters, delete it, and move on. It's probably someone trying to troll you and doing a crappy job at that.

I've been getting a lot of SPAM from random websited and places. "Thanks for signing up" "Here's your new account and password" "Thanks for subscribing to our newsletter, etc. They are not from some robot. Someone is intentionally trying to flood my email account with SPAM. How odd that we're both getting strange emails now.. hmm. I've just assumed from day one that it's from some childish person on here that thinks they're gettign to me. Joke is on them. My SPAM filters catch 99% of them and the account isn't even my personal account. lol. I check once in a while, delete a few spam emails, life's good. No one on the internet knows my personal email for a reason.
