I'll respond to this in an adult like manner and give you my opinion on "respect". Respect has to be earned. Bob has NOT earned my respect, and he never will. Helping people out by cutting factory springs is a VERY REAL DANGER. Those springs are measured from the factory at that height for a reason. If you cannot afford to buy aftermarket springs, you SHOULD NOT be cutting stock ones.
By doing so, you disrupt the whole suspension geometry of the car, and actually make it incredibly unsafe to drive. The amount of ricers I see with cut springs who are bouncing up and down the road like they are on a trampoline is absolutely mind boggling. All it takes is one pot-hole on a sharp turn at a decent speed, and that car is spinning/flipping down the road. What Bob does by cutting those springs, whether he "precisely measures them" or not, he endangers those that he "helps" and if one of them crashes, he could be sued VERY easily.
If you want to take advice from a guy with an early 90's accord, with "racing rear window vents", 600 spoilers, cut stock springs, and who talks out of his ass, then be my guest. That's on you. However, him being an "Elder" does not mean I have to respect him, especially if he's crazy.
As for your comment regarding "This is why TR blah blah blah". You haven't even been here long enough to know what TR was like in its heyday. It was fun and there were trolls, except no one got their panties in a wad like they do now. So please, you can try and blame me and the few others that STAY IN PIT-ROAD as the reason that "TR sucks" and I'll let you keep thinking that.
Begin Sarcasm:
I mean, it has nothing to do with the Thieves, Pedos, ricers and scumbags, right? I mean, THE ONLY reason TR sucks is because of the few guys in Pit-Road. /Sarcasm.

Who are you that Bob or anyone for that matter has to earn your respect? You are just another user on this forum that has been here since 2004, BIG DEAL! Have you done a search on yourself and actually think you are a POSITIVE contributor to the site? There is no need for anyone to explain themselves to you just as you don't have to out of your way to explain yourself.
That being said, Please take the time to re-read my posts above these and take note.
To you and to all, Stop trolling, stop ranting on threads that you feel are "not worthy" of your eyes. The Asshole-Drama causing crap WILL stop. AND, STOP yapping and causing threads to go off topic...
BACK ON TOPIC,

I'm more of a positive user than a lot of people on this site. I don't steal, I don't scam, and I don't try and represent TR in any form or manner whatsoever. I stay in Pit-Road and GCC and that's about it. I didn't ask anyone to explain themselves other than Bob, who is not only doing an illegal activity openly on TR, but promotes it right in front of you.
I also didn't ask for respect either, but that doesn't mean I have to respect some crazy guy who drives a riced out car because he's an "Elder".
Again, I'm pointing out things that YOU as an ADMIN should take into account, especially because what Bob is promoting and saying he will do is illegal in nearly every state if not all of them. The balance of letting people get away with shit compared to what us "regulars" get hit with is absolutely astounding. It fucking pisses me off the way some crazy old fuck isn't subject to the same rules the rest of us are. It's been proven over and over again.
And before you go on some crazy power trip I'll stay on topic:
Rey,
Maybe people who's tires are too tall...
Shouldn't have had them cut by a guy who drives a riced out 90's accord....
As this activity is illegal, and highly dangerous to do....
That's probably why they are rubbing...

You have a point man, but I still think you should respect him as an elder and not as a ricer crazy old man.

No one has to earn anyone's respect. You may claim not to steal, lie, cheat whatever, but constantly showing your self-proclaimed "asshole" mentality gets old real fast. As I've always said, 100% of the people that I've met that claimed to be tough guys online have nothing but pussed out when we meet. Hands-in-pocket "wassup" is all I see. So just because behind your screen you can bash, criticize, conveniently "act" as a rule follower just to call someone else out and then post like an asshole everywhere else is NOT a positive contributor - you're just like the rest of the bad apples.

The VERY SUBJECT OF CUTTING SPRINGS. That's illegal. You are not allowed to do it. I don't know why this is so hard for everyone to understand????
Nice Ninja Edit.
No it's not, but your totalitarian bullshit ruling is. Bob is breaking a rule on TR. Plain and simple. I remember before you were an Admin and before you had power. You were just as bad as everyone else. And while YOU may not agree, I'm not nearly as bad as a lot of people on this site. I DO hold myself higher than a lot of people on here because of the fact that I don't Scam, Steal, or any other activity on here.
You have been very hypocritical lately, and it's frustrating to see you turn just like all the other Admins into a "Super douche! Here to Ruin the day!"
***Please note I'm not calling you a name, or any other admins a name, just pointing out how you're acting.***

Bottom Line:
Bob breaks rules all the time with his posts. Bob has never been banned. When we break rules, we get banned. At this point, it's a little surprising that people continue to defend him.

So now that this thread has run it's course, it will be closed.
To address statements made:
1. What to do when you see a thread/post that is considered "illegal" chatter? Report it. use the report feature made so that even Bonobos can figure it out.
Do NOT trash the thread to make a point, Do NOT troll the thread trying to get it closed, Do NOT engage in name calling, insulting, judging the one that started the thread. Simply put, REPORT IT. EVERYONE in the Admin/moderation queue will see the report and it will be handled accordingly. It is as simple as that. Don't like it, too bad. Continue to act in trollish/asshole way and you will be dealt with as well. It's not me, it's the rules and ALL mods and admins are supposed to enforce them. Period.
2. So you are going to bring up my actions from the past good or bad? Then let me ask you, are you still sucking on your mom's tits? It's called maturing aka growing up. So what if I was childish in the past, it's what I do today what matters. I have spent countless hours contributing to this site with my time, efforts even money to see it grow. So I have been enabled to moderate the site and now all I'm a hypocrite? NO, I am merely enforcing the rules that are blatantly broken. So what about Bob? It HAS been addressed and every thread is handled in a case by case basis. It doesnt help when you all come and cry like children without milk and then put on your seizure helmets and begin to act trollish. Again, it's called growing up and learning that there is more to life than the role of a troll.
Projekt, cry me a river.......
The rules are broken by all of you daily such as we see in the thread by several users. Are they banned? NO. Banning is the action taken when blatant disrespect and disregard of requests made by admins/mods addressing certain issues. IE, when no matter what WE say becomes beating a dead horse, then it's time for a snooze. Or the blatant violations such as posting porn ect.......But a ban when rules are simply broken is not what happens. Ban usually follow endless chatter back and forth PM or not, unreasonable mentality and then in alot of cases, break down to simple name calling and cursing.
So, what does all of this mean?
If you see Bob, break a rule, report the thread. End of story. what happens from there is none of anyone's concern.
To POST in said thread, acting trollish, crying, fighting, name calling ect - will only draw attention to your rule violations and you will be dealt with as well.
Just allow the sack to finally drop and grow up.
Don't feel that the issue is handled in time or appropriately? you can PM an admin at admin@tamparacing.com or PM one directly. But to "take matters into your own hands" will only get you in trouble.
so, now that all bases have been covered and this thread has run it's course, it will now be closed.
any concerns or questions can be pm'd to me or any other moderator/admin of your choice.....
