To the op, this is what is meant by banter.

Oh no someone who i have never met and drives a french baby blue skip has said he dosnt like my car.
I better start bitch1ng on the zone because i am so important and everyone gives a sh1t
My take on what Jaymos is saying is that there are ways of saying that you dont like another's car that will cause friction, and there are ways that wont...jaymos wrote:Im not saying you should lick someones arse, all im saying is a lot of people post pics of their cars because they are proud of them and like to show what work they have done to them. I myself like to see other zoners cars and what they have done to them. Some arent to my taste but if thats the way the owner wants their car that should be respected.jbh wrote:+1Dezzy wrote: If you post pics of your car on an open forum surely then its fair game.
You cant expect that just cos its your car people will lick your ass.
I personally dont care what anyone else thinks of my car. I know its how i want it and i know its Mint.
I get possitive comments mostly apart from Rav but he is special, i dont care weather people like it or not. I like it.
If your car doesnt get the responce you wanted, chin up.
Thats my opinion anyway
well said Dez..
A lot of guys spend a lot of time and money on their pride and joy and to have people just shoot them down in flames and post insulting comments is not on in my eye.

I agree with all of that tbhTouring Whore wrote:Can I just ask, why would "Bonkers" be such an asset that will be sorely missed? The hammering he got seemed out of order, but I didn't envisage him popping into tech help to answer questions on blown fuses, or turning up to shows, or offering another member a critical missing part for their car that he had lying around the shed.
Other than that, someone else has said my feelings - the zone is alright as it is. Maybe is not as good as it was in the old days (what ever is?), but it's been top banana from my perspective.
On the zone, some people are decent, some are total *******. There's an in-crowd that gets away with murder, and there's newbies who get unjustified levels of abuse. Just like real life.
lol
but if people talked to others in a pub the way some do on here the would be picking their teeth up from the floor, there is a fine line between a bit of banter and taking the wee weeDezzy wrote:I agree with all of that tbhTouring Whore wrote:Can I just ask, why would "Bonkers" be such an asset that will be sorely missed?

You wouldn't walk into a pub full of people you didn't know and expect everyone to talk to you and buy you a drink would you?
Talk about the few in the in croud who get away with murder is rubbish IMO.
There is some very funny banter on here which if lost because people can't take a bit of leg pulling would be utter sh1te.
Man up and stop crying you sound like girls

Yeah, if you post your car up then its open for anyone to comment, but the problem seems to be people dont know how to comment.Dezzy wrote:If you post pics of your car on an open forum surely then its fair game.jaymos wrote:Its always the same, when someone post pics of their car you can guarantee most of the replies will be, you should change this and that, those look shite, that looks shite, why have you done that etc. Then when the owner replies that its their taste then world war 3 breaks loose. If you dont like someones car dont bother to comment on it is what i say. Too many on here think that people should change their cars to suit them, its not on.
You cant expect that just cos its your car people will lick your ass.

), but as above, most comments seem to be 'that looks shite, you must be a retard'.Well, I told you how to improve your car, and you told me that Im wrong. But we are still talking and AFAIK, neither of us are close to being banned.Dezzy wrote:Is that better?
Chrome is King and the sooner you council plastic E30 drivers realise it the better your cars will look.
What I did say tbh. I don't think that what you said was in any way offending just wrong.jmc330i wrote:Well, I told you how to improve your car, and you told me that Im wrong. But we are still talking and AFAIK, neither of us are close to being banned.Dezzy wrote:Is that better?
Its not really that difficult, so I would hope other more outspoken Zoners (compared to me) can think about what they are typing before they type it.
Id love no know what you would have said... or maybe not
And hopefully thats my point.Dezzy wrote:I don't think that what you said was in any way offending just wrong.
Yeah I agree, but Jealous?? yeah okDezzy wrote:My point is and I may be alone here, it's only the Internet and if you had slated my car (because you were jeallous) then that's your opinion. I am sure your a nice guy but I don't know you. Why should I get all worked up about your opinion.
I cant believe you sold out on your beliefs - how are you going to face the other CR24v membersDezzy wrote: Ps I like your car too
A very good precis !hongkongfuey wrote:i was on another forum the other day(non bmw) and i asked the dreaded question of someone's opinion, i asked about service parts (after i had searched the 'shop') i asked what oils and plugs were prefered. the first response i had was oh look another noobie with a 'what do i do question' . after several arguements one said "how dare you speak to me like that, you've been on here 5 mins and iv'e been here years, look at my post count"
i told him he was a post whore, and everyone jumped on my back and slagged me off, (the bloke was from quite close and i said if he wanted to mouth off to me we should meet up in person he declined) after three pages the mod stepped in,( after that bloke said to the mod i had threatened him???) so i had a go at him for this disgraceful forum and how its run, he deleted the thread.
i have had had my fair share of crap given to me on this site, alot to do with my 'council ways' and lots of spot lights, and the orange paint etc, also on some of my views, on stuff like 325 vs 325 sport, hottuning vs btb etc.
i have found there is certain people on this forum who do most of the arguing, i have in the past had heated posts with eg jonbmw, but when all said and done at the next meet we talked, ( it was on that subject then it was finished , moved on) some don't though, its personal to them somehow, and if who they are arguing with dare to answer back with a different opinion, they get personal abuse.
i will admit also i have at times have been too aggressive and said bad stuff ( and offered to back it up too) almost got banned too, but i have never looked down on someone with a low post count.
as for spamming there are those who pop up on a few posts then there are others who are on nearly all, while i agree adding good advice or opinion to a thread is helpful, some seem to need to post for the sake of it, a high post count does not mean you know what you are talking about???
we are lucky on this site to have so much knowledge and so many helpful people( i would like to think i am one as i have spent a lot of time under bonnets, sumps, doing gearboxes, brakes,engines etc at the drop of a hat) others are just out for what they can make from people on here
and this forum should be united as we all have love (degreeing levels) for the e30, i have found this to be the easiest site to be on and most of the time one of the friendliest, maybe some on here should look at different forums to see how they work , then come back an see e30zone is the best
Just remember everyone had a 0 post count at one pointbrummimatt wrote:I for one have a pathetic post count, and I ever new till now it was regarded as an issue by some people. but i would like to say that whenever I have posted on this site i have never failed to have fantastic feedback with great advice.
