Yeah, but look at all the problems you are having with it right now. It will only get worse.
I thought the same thing. I bought a 1992 Prelude Si 4WS. It needed a lot of work. It needed a new tranny, clutch, axles, exhaust, downpipe, tires, headlight, battery, brakes, rotors, and windsheild. Fortunately, I bought it for $1800. After replacing all these parts..I am in the hole $3700 in parts alone and the 4WS is still giving me trouble.

I am not too upset about changing these parts but it is getting a little too much to spend on a 1992 car. I am not modding the car any more.

I guess it all boils down to if you can justify putting A LOT of $$ into a car that has a high likelihood of having more problems.

Just my opinion though.

It just makes it SO much easier to read, sentence structure rox.. Also, more people would be more inclined to help, including myself.

Thanks guys

True dat dude. When a post is all garbled/jumbled I'm less likely to even try to read it, nevermind respond to it. Punctuation, capitalization, and spacing help break seemingly rambling thoughts into more manageable chunks of info.

Personally, a paragraph-long run-on sentence post gives me a friggin' headache trying to read/decipher it and I think most peeps just tend to ignore them altogether. No, it's not about being the grammar/spelling/composition police, I find that really annoying also; it's about presenting your thoughts in a clear, concise manner.

If you walked around talking to everyone with socks in your mouth no one would listen to you either...

 

amen to that

 

Yes some people have yet to take English class it seems. HT encourages them to strive for excellence.

 

Wooohooo, that second post is mine.

 

you know corythat was a verygood post i dont see why people have to type like they have a 3ird grade literature background it getsannoying and you can not read what the person is posting about the topic is like what is this guy talking about and you have no clue and im just glad you said something about it because like i said its not cool i guess the guy has to fix his car up who knows but in the meantime maybe he can learn to type gooder.

 

that is right jajajajajajaja!!!!111 you know

 

heh heh - that was funny, Gude.

Yeah, for me, the #1 advantage to forums like this is that you have the chance to edit, proofread, & check anything you say before you say it . . . . I really have a hard time understanding why anyone wouldn't take advantage of this.

yeah when u right ur stuff make it clear so we can all read it cuz sometimes its really hard to read when theres all these speling mistakes and the grammer is all off and i hate it when its all mashed togetherr and its really cunfusing and it takes like an hour to read and no one wants to read it cuz it takes to long i mean come on man get reel peace i'm out

 

Me... fail English? That's unpossible

 

no offense, but not everybody has the same sentence structure. You'll always have people that will put together sentences like "ok i got a b16 with a typr r tranny will it fit with just bungee cords an silly string holdin it up cuz thats what my cuz said thanks appreciate the help alot". I don't think it's too cool to site one persons post on a problem that just won't ever get fixed... I dunno, just my opinion

 

I agree, structure is a good thing on message boards. Venting is also ok to a point, but there should be some learning experiences that you can share with others.

Except that you have to have *some* sort of standard - it's not realistic to have anarchy on a website and expect it to be usable. That means kidz will have to suck it up and learn to spell. Oh, and the problem *can* be fixed, by tossing illedible posts, perhaps making kidz slow down and be coherent. Does that mean Honda owners have to know how to write? Seems reasonable and well within the website's right to make it so.

Like someone above said, if people can't write, their posts won't get answered. Perhaps not getting replies is enough to make them get the message.

BTW, I have cousin's who talk like how the example post is written. Drives me nuts just to be around them.

i really like it when people know how to post without sounding like everything is garbled into one bigass paragraph.

Too easy

 

Your hero cookie sir.

 

Good pointer, Corey

Next person who posts something stupid gets docked points..

PS. Think I'm kidding?

 

ok

 

One word replies count as post whoring. Dock one point.

Stupid posts go against the rule that Corey just stated. Dock one point.

I'm in no mood for playing today. Your points will drop like flies.
