I just can't help but wonder if people are a bit worried this could hurt their niche part of the market. Just a thought?

Red Hat makes money from free software. Product support has some value.

This war will not end until some one BLOWS an engine up, then whoever solution blows it, is going to win

Carlos

true, but it doesn't have to be that way.

**Warning- General Rant Zone**
People can decide to be different and not allow it to continue. In the case of this forum it's bigger than just a "tuner war", it's a problem with how alot of people interact in general. Most days this place reminds me of the commons area in high school filled with nothing but snotty little bitches gripping about who's boyfriend has the biggest dick. There are multiple things that have to occur if this is ever going to stop.

Tuners have to stop treating other tuners like shit.
Customers have to stop treating tuners like shit.

Tuners have to stop treating their customers like shit whenever they feel like it.
Customers have to stop treating other customers of the same product like shit whenever they feel like it.

Tuners have to stop treating non-customers like shit.
Customers have to stop treating non-customers like shit.

Customers of one product have to stop treating customers of a different product like shit.
Non-customers have to stop treating customers of products and other non-customers who frequent the forum like shit.

At the end of the day, everyone is at fault for this in one form or another and it's no coincidence that the "drop-off" people bitch about in the overall quailty of E90post occurred right about the time all this started. We went from a well thought of forum to a laughing stock in no time flat and everyone here can change that starting today.

If someone is posting BS and doing nothing but tried to inflame the group or "get a rise out of people", don't quote them and post LOL or a laughing smilie, tell them it's not wanted here and to take that crap to another forum. It's doesn't matter if they have 5 posts or 15,000 posts or a new member or a supporting vendor, no one should get a free pass at treating others like shit.

Bottom line, if you really want things to change stop waiting for others to do so and start with yourselves first. If we can't do that simple thing then this forum deserves to die a slow death.

**Now exiting General Rant Zone**

Have a great Thanksgiving everyone! (only valid for US readers.

Thank you. Can't wait to celebrate the genocide of Native Americans while eating honey glazed turkey!

Very well said Carnage. I think this forum and all of us participating can do our small part by following the Golden Rule:

"Treat others the way you would like to be treated."

1st thing..yuck...

.....

2nd thing...it's up to the 27,000+ members of this forum, not one person to say enough is enough. The quickest way to stop a war is to quit funding it, whether that funding is through words or money..

Apparently you don't know how boring work is the day before a holiday. No real effort to get anything done, just waiting for the clock.

Now post the times!!!!!!
