I figure it starts to register once people realize the 2nd word is Talon, as in the DSM Eagle Talon, which is where I started. "Warr" is just a nickname that I go by, so there ya have it...

Anyway, I try to do what you suggest already, but I got my final warning from Speedlimit already this week, so I'm done pointing out BS or dealing with stupid newbie questions. I will stick to the Drag Racing forum, but Evo General can now devolve into the inevitable cesspool that I was trying desperately to avoid. I was told that people's "enjoyment factor" would increase if I discontinued my mission, so enjoy!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOO why did speedlimit do this. we need people like you calling out newbs

disinformation is running rampant on this forum. I dunno, the government has 3 branches, why not evom? The Vendors, the Moderators and the Truth Squad. Checks and balances imo. It's needed. As long as the approach is from an engineering/scientific perspective, and not confrontational, who can argue with the idea? And those that can actually debate the points intelligently, will have to to back up any claims. Seems logical to me.

I'm intrigued, only one year on the Evo so far but other cars before that and a rocket scientist in the day time . I never subscribed to the "check out my cool new mod, it rocks even if it sucks because I bought it" philsophy. Not big on crossing swords with others, but certainly up to give honest reviews on anything I have actually tried myself. Can I play?

Because like the government, evom is not fair. This is getting to be rather comical, people are acting as if "the truth squad" will somehow throw off the shackles of oppression and return peace to the galaxy, its the internet, not the UN.

This isn't meant to be a group for "joiners". I can tell you want to be a part but are too independent even to associate yourself with an Independent group. I guess you are a true loner....

I can't speak for everyone, but I don't have any grand illusions, I'm just trying to have a little fun, as the original post by smogrunner suggested. If I knew you better, I'd tell you to quit playing the drama queen angle

If by loner you mean realist than yes. Honestly, do you really think that the moderators are going to share power with another group comprised mostly of relatively new members to this forum?

I don't think this has anything to do with the mods. They do their own thing and allow a lot of stuff due to monetary reasons, but we aren't bound by that, so we can provide untainted, truthful, and factual information/responses for the betterment of all...

But at the same time who decides whether the information is "untainted"? Who's results do you base this on, the dynos/results posted by the vendors/vendor supporters or the other guys? Thats the key problem, this isn't a close knit circle of friends we're talking about here, we're talking about a forum that has thousands of members spread half way across the globe. I've seen threads ranging from "such and such product is amazing" to "such and such product is crap and everyone should die if they own one", well which thread is right?

I'm not trying to "burst the dream" or anything like that, I'm just asking people to think realistically and not get their hopes up to a seeing a revolution on evom. At the end of the day we're still at the mercy of the mods.
