S-t-e-p 1 (first thing you should do) Read the "sticky" post for the noobs.
S-t-e-p 2 (things that follows the first thing you should do) review build threads in the "build thread" section. S-t-e-p 3 (things to do in case step 1 and 2 are not effective) repeat step 1 and step 2 till you have an idea where you're standing. |

Second post "ALL YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED IN ONE POST" https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1332710630 Not to mention the entire "BUILD THREAD" section where 99% of the cars are DIY.

Bottom line: this forum is extremely helpful, and all of us "meanies" actually go out of our ways to help those that want to make their miatas fast.
But when someone is as ignorant and lazy as OP and asks one of the top 10 stupidest questions you can possibly come up with on a miata turbo forum, you can bet he'll be getting sarcastic replies. cliff notes: we don't spoon feed. I believe you when you say you do go out of your way to help others learn. I already stated that earlier, and thank you for the negative prop by the way, not sure how my response to you deserved it though. Everybody starts somewhere, and I've spent a lot of time on forums like these. It just irks me that as a community, people would rather use their time to post a worthless insult than provide any kind of assistance. I'm not saying spoon feed the guy, as the saying goes, teach him to fish. PhillyB began that process immediately, but why don't we go through and count the number of posts in this thread and determine which posts were utterly worthless, and which provided any assistance at all. |
I never neg prop'd anyone ever

lol nope.
I'm a very positive person:D |
I'm just guessing here, but....
when a newbie, which people don't have problems with on this site, asks questions that have already been answered, organized, thoroughly discussed and have CLEARLY been made accessible, it makes the users in this community who have actually spent their time (for free I might add) trying to build a database feel like they have utterly wasted hours. Think about if you were in a classroom, and the teacher put everything you needed to know on the screen including all of the answers for an assignment, and yet you still went up to your professor and asked him/her about what you needed to do in order to finish thus assignment. If I were that prof, I'd probably just tell you to leave. Now on the other hand, if those questions were about the answers and maybe about how some of them didn't make sense, or if something was wrong, that's a bit different so stop crying |

Yup, basically the only post in this now three page thread that has said anything worth reading. Like I said, I get the frustration, and I wasn't personally attacking anybody, all I'm saying is I was shocked at the disrespect that followed. First and foremost, I do my best not to judge... but secondly, if I do think someone is ignorant, my first reaction is not usually to insult them for it. Especially when they respond not by getting defensive or rude, but by going with the flow and still being kind.

Im going to stay, not going to let a few people put me off.
A lot of interesting things to learn about on here. |

A lot of interesting things to learn about on here. Guys who get all butt-hurt and leave the forum after some basic hazing would never have contributed anything anyways since they probably lacked a basic sense of humor and lets face it... if you're a man with ass-hair and drive a Miata, you're either a legit homosexual or the exact opposite... no middle ground... and a sense of humor is mandatory. Go back and read this whole thread again. Laugh at yourself for asking a dumb question that was answered in depth in a sticky. Then laugh at yourself for taking our jokes seriously. Then find something useful to start a thread about... like maybe you're somebody who has an intimate knowledge of the inner-workings of a fireworks factory and some good pictures... then start an INTRO thread or post up your stuff in the BS forum and BECOME A MEMBER OF THE COMMUNITY. Now you are being productive and useful and we really are starved around here for that kind of stuff. PS: The internet is very serious business, just ask around. |
Its almost like he's a troll.

If you don't have much of a sense of humor then Miata.net might suit you better. |
:/

please no pics of ass hair.... please....
|
do*
|
I have laughed at my self already for asking a question, that is right there in my face to get the answers to my self.
And thanks for having me on the form, i want to learn from people. Im a genuine man with a hairy ass with a miata who is married so im not a homosexual... ps each to there own if that's what floats your boat go for it. like i said i am sorry for wasting everyone's time... And please bare with me over my grammar im not the best at it lol i will also do as i said when i start this project i will share the pics with you all thanks hope to talk some time soon. |
It's good your sticking around. I've already learn a lot of things just lurking and searching around on this forum, and I haven't been a member long.
No doubt, the mt.net community can help you with any trouble you may have during your turbo build... Just makes sure you search first, because more than likely someone probably had a similar issue or question :) |
