I'll be away for awhile...

It used to be that this group was a bunch
of good people helping and encouraging each
other with Subaru issues.

Now it's turned into a chronic bitch session
with personal attacks, long-running off-topic
threads and no concept of *mutual* assistance.

I'm sure it's just a phase and I'll check back
in a couple months.

Have fun.

Thats the ticket. Run away and let the bad people have a free run. Thanks.

Jim,

Remember Edmund Burke? "The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is
for good people to do nothing."

The "good guys" are still in the majority here! No sense leaving just
cuz a coupla problem children waste a bit of time and bandwidth. Notice
they seldom stick around once the group's had enough of them?

Hmmm ... I've only been in this group a few months. So far I've found the
help given and the opportunity *to* hopefully help outweighs the diatribes
of some idiots. Cheers
 
Hello Folks, [ evL ] here...

Hey Jim, we miss you already.
Believe it or not; there are still
some "good posts" and good "Subaru concerns"
being posted here.

When I find the time a lot of the
questions and answers from legitimate
posts will be posted on a web site
for others to learn from. So your input
is needed and valued! Don't mind the
goofballs, they're like kittens, we're
always giving them away.

Good point, the problem (as I see it) is that as more and more people start
using the internet it becomes more and more populated with people who just
want to argue over who has a bigger e-penis. It happens on nearly every
newsgroup/webforum that I go to (alt.autos.subaru; www.nasioc.com;
www.northernanimation.com; and www.fargostreet.com are 4 big ones of the top
of my head.) Eventually these people either leave or start behaving better,
but it does take time. Most of these guys just want to argue, and the more
people argue with them the more they post dumb shit, as soon as they are
largely ignored they move on.
 
why don't you guys stop whinning an stick to cars..it's the us and them
mentality which is the cause of half the worlds problems
