Please don't scare off the noobs, you old farts are getting boring. If you keep scaring off the noobs, there will be no more interesting thoughts, ideas, projects, or any new people to argue with.
Please feel free to humiliate and belittle complete idiots that visit the site, but be aware that your idea of a complete idiot may not be someone elses. Only textually castrate suspected idiots when everyone else has agreed they are an idiot (Case: RLOwner, Dano, that guy from the Mr. Bling post, the guy with a whitewall tire stuck to the side of his Trac). Mr. Stern, I highly suggest an "official site declaration of an idiot" wrench for people to vote on.
There are a handful of lively members in here which many just ignore. They balance each other out and it is funny to watch them consistently argue over any topic. Just watch, feel free to copy these topics and start a thread:
Topic: GEORGE BUSH IS A NAPOLEONIC IDIOT WHO WOULD JOIN A UNION AND BECOME A DEMOCRAT IF IT MEANT HE COULD START A WAR AND RUN THE GAYS OUT OF THE COUNTRY AND INTO NORTH KOREA WHILE POKING FUN AT HIMSELF AND DRIVING A HONDA RIDGELINE, WHICH IS THE BEST TRUCK EVER, TO RUN FROM COMBAT AND KILL DAN RATHER WHO IS A TERRORIST IN DISGUISE, SO WE CAN HAVE 5 WARS AT THE SAME TIME. GO FRANCE!
Alternate topic 1: Republicans are sorry for all they have done and turning into Democrats, which now suck because they are really converted Republicans, and all the other parties suck because they can't find 1 decent candidate which means all of the government sucks. We should elect Michael Moore and Bill Maher as President and VP, Howard Stern as Sec'y of Defense, Kelly Clarkson as Sec'y of Commerce, Simon Cowell to head the National Endowment for the Arts, and Pamela Anderson as National Whore. What more harm could they do anyway?
Alternate topic 2: Shocks.
Noobs, please try to hang in there and remember that we appreciate you as much as our sane members, zealots, and back-seat grammar teachers. If someone is irking you, either turn the other cheek, or learn how to politely, creativly, and within site rules tell them to F*** Off. Might I suggest a song:
F is for the way you type to me...
U is Ur the only one with which you agree
Ceeee is very, very, okay I'm stopping now, you get the idea. Just don't leave because YOUTYPELIKTHISANDCANTSPEL, or whatever. We need everyone's Trac united in order to keep Ford interested in us, and to have convoys to intimidate other drivers, projects to copy, and excuses to convoy across country to meet up and drink beer, holy $h!t, this is a union.
Is it any wonder that Tracs, even totally strange ones seem to park next to each other in parking lots, or that they seem to pull up near each other on the highway, or that each one has its own personality, or that Gen1's and Gen2's tend to compete with each other yet recognize each for its qualities? That a 2001 Trac still turns heads, prompts conversation or interest, and delivers automotive passion between owners comparable to the stangs and vettes? I think not.
Thanks for complying... in advance.
