So TRUE, thank you for being positive.

But it's a fin read anyway .

There are always a few who jump into re selling vehicles then get all pissy when it's pointed out they have no idea what they're doing....

Did it end up selling for the shockingly low price the OP was sacrificing it at?

PS: it really is an interesting read

I am sorry that my posting of factual information about my own vehicle purchase came across as so opinionated to the OP. In re-reading my own post, I did express an opinion when I said this was an "interesting thread." Sorry about that error.

It is just a case of thin skin. With any sale of any vehicle, there is always going to be some form of critiquing. Especially when a seller uses "cream puff", "mint" etc. It is nothing more then part of selling a car.

None of this is any form of trolling or a personal attack.

Allen i can see why you didnt sell it here All these guys here seem to have a Self inflated Opinion of their own Opinions and They are Just Trolling Not one is interested in Actually buying the Car Instead Just out for their Sunday Troll and im not interested in wasting my time Some of the guys here have been very helpful the others seems to think their opinions matter ALOT to me lol and im gonna keep a eye open for their Threads and see if they will Value My opinion as much as they want me to Value theirs

Worst thread, ever.

Quote:
Trolling and trollish behavior is not permitted. Trolling is defined as an inflammatory post used primarily for the purpose of irritating other members. Examples of trollish behavior include taking a thread off topic into a heated tangent, making offensive declarative statements, deliberately posting misinformation, and making personal accusations towards another forum member. The moderator of the respective forum will have the final determination of whether trolling was utilized for a specific post.
Quote:
Debate, discussion and and criticism are acceptable. Personal attacks are not.

When the debate degrades to the point of attacking the person rather than the argument, the post will be considered unacceptable. Words such as "delusional", "idiotic", "moronic", "psychotic", etc. all refer to a person and will generally not be permitted.



A warning will be issued when the personal attack is borderline and the intent was deemed to be not malicious.

An infraction equal to one point will be issued for all blatant personal attacks.

: It seems the moderators have Ignored the fact that All of these Proclaimed know it all's have done this To my Thread and Can Count on me Not looking to this Site So You little Boys have fun in your Playground

are you READING WHAT YOU ARE POSTING? a troll is someone that changes the topic of the thread into a path that is intended to derail and heat the posters...

you posted a car, and asked a high value and did not accept critique of your car.

really. really really... the only one being insulting and trolling is you.

please feel free to report any posts that are trollish, or attacking... the moderator in charge of the forum will address them...

Incredibly childish behavior and responses. Very mature.

The thread will remain, a infraction was given by another moderator to him for his insulting behavior, and I banned him for his response to me.
