Brevity maybe, but not rudeness. I have no time to be verbose, but I also have no desire or reason to be rude.

Yes, I would be interested to see their viewpoint on the amount of work CS requires to not necessitate creation of new sites, and whether their own attitude to CS is part of the problem. To that end, CS is actually better off if the less focused get bored and do something else which does not have the financial impetus to strength to compete.
I would be very happy if everyone who talks crap goes and starts talkcrap.com, I'll get back to enjoying being a part of this site rather than working to support it.

When are we launching CS2 then. All avatars will be a car, all sigs will be something short and inoffensive and joviality and attention seeking will be a mere memory.

nuke offday... ban spammers
I have a poor opinion of ned'd up corsa's. This is my opinion and i will voice it if i feel like it.
Truth - as standard the corsa if a pretty poor car. GSi was a luke warn hatch.
But like cars... they grow on you. They can be made better (one persons better is anothers worse).
Still bugs me why certain folk are here when they have nothing constructive to offer. Normally females in offday. Not that much of a hate as i can avoid offday.

What gets me personally about the site is the way someone posts up some pics of thier motor, and the response that you get is awful, people just say ah its shit, personally this to me shows a lack of intelligence and lack of respect, I understand that everyone may not like particular mods to a car, but it doesnt make it "shit" would much prefur to see i've have done this instead, or i wouldnt have put that kit on, mine was the same, not as bad as some but i had all sort of comments, like get rid of that shit and get rid of this shit

Yep thats my point!
If you dont like a car then you dont like it which is fair enough everyone is entitled to an opinion, the way people say it is the problem, you get comments like "its shit"

mav, i see what you are saying. I would have to admit myself that i have a soft spot for Corsa's. Saw 2 lovely examples yesterday. A black Barina GSi, totally standard and sparkling in the sun, and a new Silver Barina SRi 1.8 but with some lovely subtle touches, Irmscher stuff might i add.
