You seem to be an intelligent person, but you also seem to believe that all your views are infallible and that all others are wrong. If you wish to discuss a topic, drop the attitude and carry out the discussion with some civility. If you have a personal issue with someone, handle it outside of the forum via email, PM, etc.
dont accuse me of anything i didnt do. thats called slander, and it is against the law. i never personally attacked anyone, i only questioned their knowledge. so dont get it twisted, no spin please.

but hey, thanks for not locking this one up so i could at least respond to what you had to say.

(after thought) and you are worried about personal attacks? you got these little animated heads to the left with middle fingers pointed to jesus. i think you need to re-evaluate what youve said, and the site you are affiliated with. with a good tort lawyer, i could close this site down, especially after the allegations youve made.

This is considered a personal attack [against qtiger]:

i take this **** so seriously, i have 2.5 in titanium tubing runnin to my titanium muffler. and im about to buy an an-r header and make a carbon copy out of titanium. plain and simple *****, shut your ****in mouth.

Actually, you would have no case. Slander would be a public [national audience] attack or false accusations against you. All we're doing is telling you to chill out. Have you read the PM I sent you?

What damages would you claim in your suit?

i read the post, and was gonna come in and be like, you put loctite on the threads to keep them from backing out, sometimes its safer. I've been on this sight for over a year now, and up untill 3 days ago, I don't think I'd ever seen a locked thread. That says something about you ferral, and it says something about us. about locking the threads, that can be true towards internet threads though too ... sometimes you need to keep things from comming out, its just safer.

I think Harry pretty much covered that one, so I'll leave it alone.

You must be browsing a different board than I, because I see no emoticon even remotely related to Jesus Christ, or any religious or political figure for that matter. Besides, emoticons are usually used in a comical fashion, and I would hardly consider them a personal attack. Your words, however, were maliciously and purposely directed at someone. Rather than addressing the premises of an argument, you chose to go after the person directly. That is something I would consider a personal attack, and not only is it pour etiquette, but it also fails to reinforce any valid point you may have previously made.

I have given some thought to what I said, and I still find my so-called "allegations" to be firmly grounded, given your behavior in previous posts.

As Mike and Harry have already said in this thread and others, we are merely trying to get you to drop the holier-than-thou attitude and coexist peacefully with the other members of this board. You've obviously done a great deal of book learning and tinkering, but that does not automatically validate all of your views and disprove others' contentions.

The main problem here is one of attitude, which does not seem to be changing.
