I perfectly respect your rights and opinions. But it saddens me greatly when some keyboard warriors choose to slag another member off in the way that this lad has been treated in this thread. I'm surprised he hasn't cleared off already. Clearly he hasn't and he has responded (with a fair amount of dignity and restraint) and fair play to him.

I wholeheartedly agree  :y

It's so sad to read this thread. We all have different interpretations of our Omegas but at the end of the day we are all enthusiasts for an ageing, discontinued car that we all share a passion for. Some of us are traditionalists and wouldn't dream of changing anything from the day the car rolled off the production line. Others like to completely change the character and design (who can forget Thomas the Tank Engine)??? ;D

Then there are those in between, a category into which many, many OOF members fall. Including me. I'm no 'chav' but I like my badgeless grill and my 'eyebrows 8)'. Car Nut has contributed to this forum by telling us about the pride he has in his car and has shared some of the modifications he has done. You may not agree with them. You may not like them. That's fine, I perfectly respect your rights and opinions. But it saddens me greatly when some keyboard warriors choose to slag another member off in the way that this lad has been treated in this thread. I'm surprised he hasn't cleared off already.

I like people to be different and do things differently. It makes the world interesting, so let's live and let live eh? :)

i think you need a reality check  no ones slagged him off  he wanted opinions on his lights  unfortunately most people dont like them and think they are dangerous in certain weather conditions  as for keyboard warriors  get a grip its a forum with many views  if you cant handle that shut the door on your way out

Discussion and debate are good and are what the forum is all about.  There will always be difference of opinions, which generally makes for an interesting read.   :y

I disagree with you Millwall, in that no-ones been slagged off.  In my book being called stupid and an idiot is pretty insulting, and therefore you're being slagged off....  ??? 

Car-nut took the time and effort to share his light thing with us, and I applude him for not descending to the same levels......  :y

As you are all acting like schoolchildren, I have to lock :(

Car-nut, please start a new thread, hopefully it wouldn't turn into slanting match again
