Whats with all these new members?

In the last two days I have seen more new members with 2.2's asking about the turbo kits, and demanding links for body kits.


Mods/Jonel...please..oh PLEASE make it a requirement where you must have atleast 20 posts before they can create a new thread.



The last 7 threads ive seen were from new members either talking like a complete idiot, or demanding things that are CLEARLY posted on the website.

making people on here dislike 2.2's that much more.... its like ricer hondas. hondas are not bad cars, but most of the people trying to be in the tuner scene give them a bad name.

i'd think that we'd get a new bunch of memebers each time a model year comes to a close and the cars are so sale, so people buy them...

Who cares...I doubt anyone on this forum loses sleep any time someone makes a dumb thread. Just don't respond to it and carry on with your day. There's to much energy involved to make a thread about another thread.

Don't be so quick to dismiss the new members, some have some really great information. To the OP....think about your threads and how relevant they were or how useful they've been.
