LOCKED OUT!!!.......and no hidden key!

It would have been nice to have been contacted by at least one of the moderators...to explain in some detail specifically why this thread was closed! ["Increased Gas Mileage!...and Performance!"] I was able to take the heat!

It appears that the "neg-os" won out...how sad that I didn't get a chance to at least answer them "publicly"...now the "negativity of the dark-side prejudiced comments ..will appear justifiable!"....SAD!..YIKES!

Very intelligent people can be easily confused when prejudiced! [The Bible says "professing themselves to be wise..they became fools".] Well...at any rate, Earthworm (and possibly other rational members) will be able to try the product ..VIA FREE SAMPLES FROM ME..as soon as I receive more! May the scientific (un-paranoids) win out..in the end!

I do have to admit that the mean sarcastic derogatory comment by Kulaid REALLY cracked me up! [I dropped a couple butterfly balls in my gastank and at about 60-65 mph caterpillars started coming out of my tailpipe! This gave me an increase of 0% MPG.I highly reccomend this product to anyone who wants to give me money for nothing.][But you are oh so wrong!..."You want the truth..but you can't handle the truth!"...ha]
It's been interesting y'all!

James if you have an issue, I'd contact a moderator rather than publicly opening up a new thread. There must be a reason why the thread was locked and killed or what not.

Gimmicks shall not go over well if not carrying proof for weight.

Be prepared for similar feedback from all other places where you do this.
I have to agree with the moderators on this one. It's called prerogative

I would agree. Please contact a moderator or admin before you start, you may not have the whole story. Thanks

Please explain....a little slow here.

Can you please explain your note here....I'm a little dense I guess? Start what?...What whole story?

To be frank,...the absurd..and inaccurate...and overwhelming negativity is difficult to deal with here! Enough is enough! If you think my original omission was inapproriate, ..the amount...extent ...and degree of mean sarcastic comments were way beyond the call of duty! Like I said, I could answer them all..but I have a life beyond trying to uplift a group of misinformed pile-on self-proclaimed global thread critics (ha), so I hadn't got back to y'all before you closed the topic!

I hope we, as a group (all of us), can pick ourselves up...and now take an objective view...whereby those who want to try the product along with Earthworm (as I am), can receive some free samples as I promised..to see empirically what the product really does! Remember, the company claims BETTER PERFORMANCE, DECREASED EMISSIONS...and BETTER GAS MILEAGE. It would be great if someone thought they had an emissions problem going into an impending smog check test...to see if the product helped..? Or..If someone had recent detailed emissions specs on their SVX..to get comparativevalues. Remember, BioPerformance also claims the average increase in gas mileage is 18% to 22% (with no promises of any partcular increase, of course). THIS AVERAGE INCREASE IS STATED ON THE E.P.A. REGISTRATION! Lastly, performance of course would be a subjective evaluation by each participant.

I will await to hear from Earthworm and any other interested member to check this out as scientifically as we can. [PM, email or call]

Don't misinterpret my comments above. I have appreciated this website for years!....with tens of hours of participation..on many, many occasions! Certainly, some of you are familiar with me (especially 1 to 3 years ago), as I am with you!

THANKS AGAIN for your input...and sharing the joy of owning, fixing...and modding our SVX's!

Thank You Jim.

I would like to see it work out for the better.

I just can't help but be the pessimist on products that claim such drastic changes.

Wait, I thought this thread was about lock issues on an SVX, not a ploy to spam members even more (despite the last thread on this being closed)

If one were to enjoy the SVX forum without spamming, I'm sure one wouldn't have these problems. That somewhat reminds me of that other thread where someone sad they had had enough and were leaving. I believe the concensus was "Don't let the door hit you...."...

Question

There's a common saying on NASIOC with the initials "B.A.Y.R?!" However, since this is a more congenial forum, I'll simply say
