And then this one time, at band camp....

I cooked my S54 with a flute a amex card and some Colombian marching powder.

That being said a 100K for a S54 rebuild is cheap, mine was like a used Polo more, but atleast for 16000km after the build it has not blow or caught fire or anything bad. So i expect that tonight it will because Murphy.

Considering your lack of respect for fellow fanatics and staff alike, trolling and blatantly breaking the rules even after being ordered by staff to stop, you damn lucky to still be a part of this forum. Clearly the moderators have more patience for trouble makers than I do...

Given your record for offending fanatics, nothing is read as friendly banter...
You are talking about lack of respect for fellow fanatics? Jeeeez now that's a laugh!

Feel free to add as many negative reps as you want

Dejavu of note on this thread, some of the people on this forum like to remind of us of their lack of class. Fordkoppie and Gizmo are not one of them.

Because everyone behind a keyboard has a e-peen 9 inches long

Seriously tho, this forum has no place for personal insults and this type of behaviour, irrespective of who it comes from or is directed at.

MODS, please tighten the belt on discipline where needed

So you want to talk about class? Okay, how about a certain forum member that you call classy sells his M3 CSL right after he finds out it has subframe cracks, but he neglects to tell the new owner. Instead, he sells it to him at full price with a smile on his face, knowing full well the time bomb he has just left in the hands of the new owner. You call that class? I call that dishonest, and if that is the type of person you are defending, then it says a lot about you Splint.

This used to be a forum on like minded fanatics, friendships and the love of cars, now it's just too complicated and mostly about egos and politics. Split right down the middle and honestly not a fun place to be anymore. I have over 5000 posts to my name with 61 rep points, it speaks volumes of the type of member I have been, the contributions I have given to this forum. Filming your events, helping fund other members builds, organizing events and runs etc. Not many who are not an admin can say the same and it is a sad day to say that my time here at BMWfanatics has come to an end. You wonder why I haven't come to any of your events or filmed anything for you guys in a long time? This place used to be a great place to come discuss what you love, now on a daily basis I witness forum members going at each other or passing negative opinions on a subject they know nothing of. There is nothing but constant negativity here. This is no longer a safe place to share ideas and the love for BMW, but rather a free for all for those ill informed to post one's negative opinions and have a go at each other.

It was a good few years while it lasted. I truly hope this forum can someday get rid of the negative venomous energy that has infested it over the last year since Arbee left and handed the reigns over.

So, here is to the good times, the close friends I made, the dreamers and their awesome builds, the crazy midnight runs and the awesome track days. The MattQ's, the ZALeonard's, the Burgy's, the Coisman's, the Arbee's, the Nicks and Spiro's, The HerrBMW's, the UpNcoming's... The true good natured members that made this place the enjoyable forum it was for so long. Mostly all gone now but you need not wonder why.

I cant comment on anything regarding the Csl sale or any other 2nd hand information, my experience is based on personal interactions with fordkoppie, and I can't speak highly enough of him in "My first hand opinion"

With regards to the negativity on this forum, I 100 percent agree, it's not the place it once was. But then again judging by your post you are just as negative and basically a self fulfilling prophecy.

I never once mentioned you. You really sound bitter mate. I hope you get to the bottom of it.

Jeezzz... This thread has so little win in it...
I bet a lot of airtime is fueling the fire!

Thanks for the kind words Crash. I sure hope the current management team can amicably resolve these issues and change this place positively.
