hi
 

hello from ohio everyone

Hi! tell us a little about yourself(your miata)

+1. Thanks highroller. Please put your location below your Avatar.

If you already own a Miata, post pics or ban! :giggle:

re: hi
 

ok..........i was born in Ireland, lived in trinidad (caribbean).......then spent 5 yrs in UK doing an engineering degree...........now i lecture in Ohio USA
i have a 93 white miata.just bought it........
plans:
rotary bridge turbo 13b
stand alone
wide body
15x8 wheels

need to sell the rx7 first though..lol

then do some autocross and mid ohio runs


dont know how to make my location appear on my avitar and i dont have any pics yet of miata

We'll forgive you about the pics just because at some time in your life you lived in the Caribbean :giggle:

About placing your location below your Avatar; go to "User CP" and there you'll see a question about your location.

Welcome to the forum. Let us know if there's anything we can help you with :)

ok i did that and there it is...

so i won my first autocross with my bone stock miata the other day

just put on agx and stiffer springs with 15x8 wheels and Flaken 215 55 on
fenders touch like crazy in front have to do flares now

and just got that done now I am going to run in toledo this sunday will let you guys know how it goes

Welcome, but posting like that to get your count up makes you look like a douche and will get you banned.... and still no pics:mad:

well this is the only way i can get my post in so i can actual buy things for my car.......if i get banned for trying to fix my car up by sourcing parts then what good is a miata forum?
i am on rx7club forum and we can buy from any one , PM them...post threads on the very first day.....why do we have to be so strick on the miata forums?
any way as soon as I can get the parts I want to get my car all done I promise to put a picture or two.........but thats when I think the car looks good enough to actuall post some pics...if thats ok with everyone?
(smile)

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say.....no, no that's probably NOT going to be ok with anyone here, let alone everyone, oh well, you wouldn't/won't be the first guy to get the ban stick before they get their 15th post in..

well i am not tring to get banned, but at the same time, i think your response shows the lack of tolerance for different people. Not everyone wants to make friends and have a good ole chat....some people only have the little chance between work and breaks to surf and search parts etc.
maybe the mods here can soften up and realize that a forum is a wonderful tool for many to sell and buy as well as exchange ideas........and sometimes you will have many different kinds of people that have many different needs, but inspite of that we have ONE thing in common..................we love a MAZDA MIATA!!!

any way I will do my best to conform to your posting rules and all other rules that apply,

have a great day everyone

Let me help you out. Do you also have an RX-7? I ask because you mentioned in a previous post you're registered in that forum.

BTW, don't get pissed just because it's hard to get your post count up. You'll thank us in the future! ;)

And finally; as Sam already told you before: where are the pics? :giggle:

actually it's not. you're a teacher, so I expect this to sink in and for you to pass it on to the next guy who tries this (later today I suspect).

You can increase your post count by posting thoughtful, insightful, and meaningful content. that does not include one sentence in a random thread about how you agree or disagree. it also does not include non-sequitur anecdotes that dont relate to a thread. it also (hint!) does not include posting several times in a few minutes in the same thread. there is an edit button to prove you don't need to do that.

plus, by waiting a little while and learning from the community, you wont come back in a month posting something like:

I paraphrased but you get the idea.

thank you all for the advice,
however, my patience is actually not the problem, my time is.
I am a teacher, I work 12 hours and I am a engineer , so therefore I have learnt patience, just I have only 24 hours a day to 36 hours of work....lol
I am sure you all understand that.
and for the question about the RX7 . the answer is yes I owned a RX7 which I sold when I bought the MIata,

what exactly do you mean by I am a teacher.........................and (later today I suspect?)

you lecture / teach

and some other noob will come here and do what you just did "later today"

rx, welcome man. Let this thread go.

You can now pm members ;)

Welcome and please read braineack's FAQs. You'll be fine. :)

LOL.......thanks RAFA.......I guess i can PM and post now.....anyway I am and was enjoying our little exchange of opinions I am sure some other newbee will see it and learn a thing or two about us all...........inspite of creed , colour, nationality we are all miata people..LOL

ohh I forgot....here are some pics..just for you RAFA....ohh and everyone else

stage one............more to happen soon

http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t...ndparts030.jpg

http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t...ndparts047.jpg

rx; you fail at that one! :giggle:

Don't worry; try again. It happened to me too.

lol.......doh know what happen there...lol
usually that link works but did you see the edit?

You need to use the image tags.

it is up ther now though

OOOOH...he's got one of those special edition 4X4 miatas!!!

hahhaha very funny............NOT............
as i said stage one of a bad ass miata like YOU may never see.....lol

it ws a joke there douchebag...if you're going to hang around here you better get used to them. I rocked a 4x4 miata for a while too by the way...

And a "bad ass miata like I may never see"? we'll talk when you start buying parts :fawk:

hmmmmmmmmmm maybe if you had a sense of humor there douchebag you would have see the LOL at the end of my sarcasm .......which means in case you didnt know "laughing out loud"
as for parts how do you know I dont have the parts?
because i do..........minus a mega squirt i have over 3000 in parts...........all being put on in a correct timely and calculated time..........
cause thats how I roll hommie

ohh by the way.........if i cant take a joke doesnt mean you have to be rude and flick me 2 birds now does it? .........be nice or dont post on my thread please

Well done rx! :bigtu:

BTW, get used to some peculiar sense of humor in this forum ;)

Check it out. As predicted, another n00b came and posted 10 bullshit posts and his 11th was in a for sale thread.

https://www.miataturbo.net/forum/sea...earchid=506391

People dont get it. This is why we're harsh to the greenhorns!

edit: whoops my bad. he signed up in 2007 and made 6 posts. then came back to be a dumbass for 5 more!

LOL..............well at least it wasnt me that set the trend..................obviously someone down the road started this.......any way thats what being a newbee is isnt it...........make mistakes then learn, and move on to become a valuable asset to the forum..........at least I hope so..!!

Yes, but most NOOBs learn the first time or never come back.
You haven't learned shit and are still posting.

Go back and read POST#15 again... notice the HINT about using the edit button. 9 of your posts in this thead are the product of SPAM POSTING rather than simply using the edit button. It's an obvious tactic that this forum deals with quite well. After a temporary BAN, NOOBs who come back do so with a new attitude. Those that don't usually end up at clubroadster.net where they don't educate NOOBs on proper posting and subsequently their threads are saturated with bullshit useless information... like this one.

As advised earlier... you should let this thread go.

dude you should read this tread a llittle more closley , you will see that since that episode of posting I was told about it and it didnt happen again, since then it has been mostly (and i use this term loosely) freindly chat amongst us,

OHHH and by the way my freind, incase you also didnt see I did edit one post where i made a mistake with my pictures.....HUH? YOU didnt see that?

anyway, I am only responding to people that continue to bring this post back to life, becasue my mother and father didnt raise me to be rude and ignore people...............no matter how rude they may seem, by speech, gesture or typing....

You mean yesterday at 1048 and again at 1049? Is that what you mean by "it didn't happen again"?

My parents raised me to call it like it is.

So far your contribution to this forum has been simply to show other NOOBs how not to behave... so in that respect, I suppose you do have some value.

And if you'll go back to POST#24 and read what it says, maybe you'll discover why your Photobucket LINKS don't show up as PICTURES.

This is a photobucket LINK:
http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...03466Large.jpg

You need to learn how to ACUTALLY DISPLAY THE PICTURE so people don't have to waste time clicking on each individual url.

like i am wasting time right now with your rants on how much better you are than me?
maybe your tring to say that my parents are wrong about my upbringing?
maybe my parents both being medical doctors and myself having an honors degree in engineering from a prestigous university in England has has only made me lesser of a person in front of the likes of you right?


ANYWAY my friend........I am just here to chat about modifications and miatas and how much we all love the way it performs and outdo so many other EXPENSIVE cars in its class...........so dont take this the wrong way..I do appreciate your concern about my up bringing and my lack of ability to use PHOTOBUCKET...(which i have used in that manner before and it works just fine, not here for some reason)

BUT lets move on..(taking your advice )
so tell me mate what have you done to your miata? do you have any future plans? do race it or just cruise around town, do you have any nice pics ?

why cant we all just get along...LOL


PS........yesterday was not an attempt to gain post as you will clearly see by then I had more than enough post to be a productive member.....and make replies etc.
and like this EDIT....i just remebered to mention something to that guy thats alll............man seriously lighten up.i made my mistake now we can move on....

You don't have many friends do you? :fawk: that's from me and I'm sure 90% of the rest of the forum...and don't tell me to stay out of your thread.

hmmmmm so mature............you impress me......really you do n t

now bugger off

Rx, I am clearly not a better person than you. My parents are blue collar and I went to public school. I wear a uniform for a living, so clearly I wasn't cut out for much in life except to do what I'm told.

That being the case, I know when I'm beat. After re-reading this thread, I've come to the conclusion that you have done everything right from the beginning and there is absolutely nothing I could teach you about forum etiquette and being a constructive member here. I'm sorry for trying and I hope maybe some day I could learn something from you. Having an honors degree probably means everything you know will be totally over my head, but at least I can hope.

samnavy, I think you'll find that irony is wasted on the ignorant.

Hey listen Navy.............I am not tring to be difficult or ignorant as stated above.....
I too have done time in uniform AND while in uniform I too have learnt to follow instructions.........here is the thing though,
I made a mistake, which evenn a man in uniform cn do and does more regularly than most think, Being in unifoem does not mean your super human or the most discaplined person .

anyway back to the thing, I made a mistake and have since tried to avoid doing it, now people are coming on to this thread late in the game, and making their disciplinary point of veiws known........are they tring to impress others or are they just preditors waiting to pounce?
Now I am ready to move on here and make the best of my time using the forum to better myself and maybe help others one day like you are tring to do to me now...

lets just put the past things behind us and try to be friends on this forum ok......

Lets see which one of us gets the last post in this thread. You have lot riding on this decision...

Your options:
1) Don't post in this thread again= by your own willpower, you are a better man than I for not rising to the bait. But the downside is that I win.
2) Again try to explain why this thread is a misunderstanding and you just want to be friends... which will necessitate another post by me... again, the curiosity about what my response might be will mean it's worth showing your inferiority by not letting it go. I have already admitted you're better than me, so I have nothing to lose.
3) PM a moderator to lock this thread... everybody will know you chickened out and went crying to the authorities.
4) Go back through all your posts and delete them so nobody will ever know what happened here. There's a 7 day edit period, so you might be able to erase all the way back to POST#11.
5) Fly to Virginia, track me down, and pray I didn't invite Hustler over for dinner when you show up(Hint: my basement is soundproof).

6) I SWEAR THAT I WILL NOT POST IN THIS THREAD AGAIN IF YOU SHOW NUDE PICS OF YOUR WIFE. There has to be proof though... maybe nude pics of her sitting in your car. If you are gay, nude pics of your husband are not cool. If you are not married, then this choice does not count.

Choose wisely.

well you just proved a point or more to me that I already knew............

1. I made every effort to wave the peace branch at you and others but your the one that is ignorant not me so will power will not be my restraint to day
2 If i believe I made a mistake and admitted to it, only shows once more that I am a bigger man than you obvioulsy are and by saying so again only strenghtens my resolve and the truth in what I have said prior
3 if a moderator decides to lock this thread it will be by his/her own doing , and most likely it will be because of jerks like you that dont make newbees welcome at all.......in fact your rudeness only does a good job of running people off rather than a good fair welcome...that must be in your personality
4. I have no need or compultion to erase anything i said, unless you feel your post have made you a dumass by nonw you may feel free to delete
5 hustler does not scare me, and wasting money on you f by flying to Virginia is a total loosers solutioin to a problem, sounds like something the NAVY likes to do look at where you guys go to fight!!!!
6 UNLIKE you sailor boys , I dont date or marry whores..or boys in your case....LOL
I hear they swapped to powder soap instead of BAR soap.....in the navy so you guys can take longer to pick it up.........HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

ANYWAY that is all ohh and the navy jokes are just for your benift since you lowered yourself to tring to involve my wife ...who is a fantastic woman and great mother, so dont bring her up again please........that is a request, that as a man of uniform you should respect if you have any decency at all in your so called uniform..........

can we all agree that sam just likes to type long posts? it is his true mission in life.

lol i think he is training me well then....sorryy about my long reply, just wanted to keep with his format

rxmiata, the first rule when finding yourself in a deep hole is to stop digging.

You are contributing nothing. Continuing to argue shit will just get you banned. I have to say, it will be no great loss if this is all you have to offer. STFU.

So you chose #2.
I've already said that you're a better man than I. I admit it. A logical step-by-step analysis of the choices I gave you is fine, just not necessary. I could never compete in a battle of wits with anybody who graduated with honors in engineering. You can give up now and go out on top... just don't reply.
In fact, my only purpose in continuing to post here is to troll you into replying.

By the way,
Requesting nude pics of significant others is an everyday occurrance around here. It's one of our most common jokes and nobody actually does it. You chose to take it as a personal insult and very carefully chose to reply by taking a stab at the military... that must have really felt good.

Welllll....There was THIS thread.https://www.miataturbo.net/forum/sho...=landing+strip

:bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl:

i asked my gf again if she'd let me take a pic of her for the site but she still wasn't keen. i told her her face doesn't have to be in it.

maybe i should fake it. i did go on a valentines date with a girl one time (platonic :( ) that now poses all kinds of nude....
