No matter how often I ask nicely for it to stop, it continues. And yes, I finally lost it and got pissed off.
I would never ban anyone for crap like that, dont get the wrong idea. If I ever say "ban warning" its just for fun...unless you get a pm saying it because of repeated problems on the boards.
Everyone has their limits...mine was reached yesterday. Instead of closing a thread I chose to delete all the non-topic, useless argumenative, reiterated 'this engine is better than that one' bs.
You know, I try to make sure that Im one of the regular users, not edit this or that, close things down for no reason, etc. But there are times where I feel it is necessary, so I do it.
Yesterday, I will agree I was short....my reasoning is that I was very stressed out from school. If you feel that its too abrupt then I apologize. But come on...it doesnt need to be discussed as much as it is and if someone asks you to knock it off, especially a mod, then that really should be respected. Maybe Im asking too much?

well nothing personal at all.. i just have only been back on this site for a little bit now and have seen numerous warnings.. maybe i just came at a bad time? i dunno if everyone knows you are "kidding" now i didn't read what was written in this thread but for the most part you will ALWAYS have swap vs not swap.... turbo vs juice type arguments.. ex. whenever i say juice you say no.. lol which is fine.. thats the whole premise behind a message board... is to bs and chat and exchange ideas.. my current setup is based off of something i read on h-t years ago.. people were arguing about b16's vs turbo vs nitrous in eks... and for me i went nitrous.. because a b16 in my car would make it just SI fast.. and im already past that.. i think people forget alot about the car its going in.. thats a HUGE factor.. a b16a2 in a 92 hatch is a LOT differant than a b16a2 in a 98 ex.. also the starting motor is a huge factor.. if its a low milage y8... then it may really be worth boosting or spraying.. if its a high milage y7 then swapping is logically the first step.. i think that people dont take that into account EVER when debating the issue.. this person has an ex.. so depending on the current shape of his motor he can go much faster with a sub $2k turbo, or $500 nitrous kit than he can with an over $2k b16... so i say let the debating continue.. just curb it to be more civil and dont threaten to ban people.. lol
after all debating and differant opinions are what keep boards alive
