I also agree that a forum works best when everyone has fun and is helpful to the new folks. The great majority of folks here are super! The searches that I've done don't always yield the info that I need...so it's a huge help when an old-timer here jumps in with the info that I need. But snarky comments might be fun for some people, but other times, it's just a waste of time. I make my own craft beer and I dropped out of one beer forum when even the moderator started replying with snarky comments to the new people.
But let's face it...the Crossfire is truly a fun car and it gets more second looks from people than 99% of the cars out there.
Anyway, thanks for all your posts and good luck. Take care!
Often a request for help comes across as a demand when one simple word is missing, ”please”. When answers are given many do not bother to say their problem was solved, they are never to be heard from again until they demand more help.
I have given some small stuff away, paid for the postage and never heard anything more from the person until I PM them asking if it arrived OK. I had one person who sent me as a thank you an emergency roadside kit which together with the postage must have been worth five or ten times what I sent him. It takes all sorts to make up this world.
I sold some things the other week at a price less than I could have got on eBay when I saw the request in the items wanted forum, I still have not heard from them, the tracking number said it was delivered two weeks ago.
I suggest anyone selling items to use eBay unless they know the buyer somewhat. I have some more items to sell and I know where they will be sold. If you try and sell something here you get requests to sell it at a really low price, I do not bother to answer them or similar requests on eBay.
