I have been on this forum long enough to realize there are FOUR schools of thought at work here.......
1) the dedicated car nut who loves his/her car, but has little time for banter of humour
2the person who loves their car, but has NOT had a sense of humour bypass, and takes life a little less seriously than most, giving as good as he/she gets without taking offence
3)the person who needs only advice to keep their car on the road, has little time for others, and does not otherwise contribute anything to the forum
lastly, 4) the person who is light hearted, has a good sense of humour, contributes drivel, good information, and banter, but also really likes their car as well.
As long as you fit in one of these groups, but are TOLERANT of the others, harmony is prevolent in OOF land.
If you do not, there is disharmony and arguments, with SOMEBODY being offended, and throwing their toys out of their prams.
With over 6k members, there are bound to be some frictions, and differences of opinion, but in all this, we still should be ADULTS, and have ADULT values and sensibilities.
To paraphrase a famous person, without sense and intelligence, we are but just dumb animals.
I personally love this forum, but refrain from posting if it will inflame any argument, or offend anybody, friends are hard to come by, and I've made some good friends, and some great acquiantences, who I hope will soon be friends.
ADMINs.......much respect.
