    Default I believe...

    ....We can come out of the slump this forum is in. So much false outrage, name-calling, harassing members, etc. Not everybody is a fan of every driver, but what I have never seen on here is any member wish ill health (injury) on a specific driver. That leaves us with some hope. We've lost too many drivers recently to be name-calling and boo-hoo-ing at each other. What point does it serve? Some of the stuff on here lately is pathetic, and I am not innocent. Let's get back to talking dirt late model racing. Go Bloomer, Go JD, Go Richards, go whoever the heck wants to get out there and entertain us. There is plenty of bad and depressing news in the world, when you come to a site like this on your free time, do you really want to see a bunch of menial name-calling? This should be enjoyable time. Let's take a step back and realize we can all be goofballs sometimes, support your fellow members, talk racing, and enjoy it. It is OK to disagree, but let's be civil.

    Ok, let the name calling commence

    After years of being off here, I recently got back on of course it was to complain about something. That being said right away I did notice way more name calling and more keyboard warriors then I remembered. Yes some fans of certain drivers are over the top, but man we all have something in common that we enjoy. Seems like everybody could get along and appreciate all the racers and racing.

    Good posts guys. Watch out, you will be labeled the moral police if you keep that up. It's just regular guys having fun. So I've been told.

    Good one Zach. I look at it this way, Every single one of us is here for the same reason, " The love of the sport of dirt late model racing". Why all the other bullcrap goes on, I'll never understand.

    Strictly an observation, but with you it appears like its not really about morality as much as it is about hypocrisy...........thus the labeling I guess?

    I'll talk racing with anybody anyplace anytime anywhere........what I won't do ,is say it doesn't stink when there is a skunk in the room.......right pepe'?

    Let's talk some racin......just don't door somebody up and then not expect to get rubbed when they go back by you......after all, rubbin is racin.
    Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

    You guys still whimpering about getting some of your own medicine and calling it hypocrisy. Some in here can dish it out, but get butt hurt when it comes to taking it. Just having fun at the expense of the regular guys having fun.

    As far as the smell, the old adage of the skunk smelling it's own hole first, still holds true. It is refreshing that the fun makers still get uncomfortable, when the errors of their ways is pointed out. There may still be hope for the unruly school kids here.

    Make that 3 of us BBQ.. I refuse to get on fb because of all the bs/drama that seems to go on... And that is the main reason I don't post a heck of a lot on here... That being said, not all of us are going to agree.. But I can enjoy good natured back and forth, it's when things get personal, that I draw the line...
    I don't always post on 4m.. But when I do, I'm usually sitting on the crapper!!
