SVX owners are so friendly compared to others

ive noticed that between the 3 different auto based forums i browse Supraforums.com, alltrac.net, and this forum, i have to say that this forum has more true auto enthusiasts than those 2 combined. Supraforums is a constant childish battle between the mkiii and mkiv supras, and mvp motorsports (they host and own the forums) are forum nazis. None of the members are tolerant when it comes to newbies, who are constantly getting flamed for not searching by the Search Police, 80% of the posting is petty arguements. In this forum, i have yet to see such childish arguements and attitudes. Thank you all for being mature adults who appreciate the cars we drive.

Just wait and watch

After 5k worth of post (mosly junk), you will see some major arguements here too. It's just that we normally do the house cleaning once it's over and every one shakes hands and leave the subject behind most of the times.

All right punk! That's it. It's just you and me now. I am going to drive over to PA and kick your a$$ to kingdom come for no reason at all and then drive back for no reason.

We have that here too. See?

MyGreen,
Thank you for the confirmation. This is the only auto-based forum I ever visit or have ever visited. I, indeed think it's a friendly place despite our occasional "disruptions." From what I understand, we're unique among auto forums in that we're a true "community" and not just interested in the cars. I can truly say that I've made good friends here. I hope you'll hang around and do the same.

Also, since you're in PA, you might want to make it to the Reading Meet (use the search function, you numbskull to find info ). Third weekend in April at the Lancaster Holiday Inn. I'd love to meet you there.

Members are always threatening to come and punch my lights out, but they are all to wimpish to set foot on my turf.

That's right - you hide behind that little ocean of yours...

I'm glad you like it here, MYGreen. I agree - despite the occasional rough spot, the atmosphere on this board is very friendly. I've known many people here for more than four years and I've been conversing with them daily since then. I hope you'll come out of lurker mode more often, and as Randy said you're certainly welcome to join us at a meet.

Yeah, some are and some aren't. My SVX has served me very well and now I'm rewarding it with winter storage. Some people have not been so fortunate and are repairing their constantly.

I hope to make this year's Reading meet. I attended the first one, in 2000, but haven't made that event since then...

Mygreen92 - welcome to the site. I just was wondering what shade of green you avatar is. It is not the teal, polo green, or ... what ever.
