You posted in a "WTB" thread genius. What did you expect would happen?



How old are you anyway? 15? 16? I can't see anyone over that age pulling anything that stupid and then posting it thinking it makes them cool.

I actually find it to be quite humorous but then again I've done the same thing to people on this site that just plain annoy me.

Matt is a dickhead apparently, if you guys are just finding this out...

I can understand if its someone that you consistently have problems with, but this guy just asked a few legitimate questions.

Never seen him post before but it only took one post for me to figure that out. lol

i can understand where matt is coming from...sorta...its kinda like when you're the "cool kid" because you hang out with other "cool kids" that do "cool things" and then 4-5 years later everyone is doing the "cool thing" that you were doing back then, so its no longer "cool" anymore because you aren't really seen as the only "cool kid" anymore. yea kinda like that i guess? I mean if i knew alot about a certain subject/field and then had to be subjugated to listening to "dumb" people banter constantly over which color garden trim would go best with primer gray i guess i might turn out the same way? (Epstein sure as hell didnt turn out that way lol)

i kinda wish 1/2 the "nissan" (see: 240sx) people were not here mainly because even in the short time of owning one myself (for commuting purposes) i've seen the heavy flock of ricers and losers and as we all know they ruin it for everyone with their inability to read. ("i'm gonna get my VLSD welded") I mean matt can't be all bad as people perceive him (see: arrogant, pompous, elitist bastard) because he helps Penis out with his car all the time. (unless he is constantly calling him stupid while helping him lol)

matt moral: don't take the internet THAT seriously. just ignore people like it seems you've always been doing.

rest of you moral: if you guys were expecting any less from him i dont know what to tell you. it happens?

Yes it is. This is how the nissan community used to be ran (as a whole)... it's harsh and cruel ... but it weeds out all the douschebags and helpless fucks.

i would have acted the same way, honestly. if theres one thing i CANNOT stand, its someone asking me a question if i have already answered it. case in point:

MV: i have a maf

You: Hey, do you have a MAF?

i would flip out, too. not only that, but the quick barage of questions to follow would have driven me insane.. especially but i am an extremely busy person and i know Matt is, too.. we dont have time to answer a million dumb questions. you could have made it much simpler and less annoying by just coming out and saying:

"hey is this mattback? I need to get the S14SR Maf from you.. it comes with the plug, right?"

and boom. 10 minutes of our lives not sucked through our faces. theres a reason why matt posted this convo and stated how NOT to buy parts. think about what it is you need to say and simplify it. i go through things like this everyday and litteraly do not have time for ignorant questions. this isnt me being a dick, but rather illustrating the fact that i dont have time in my busy schedule to answer questions that either were already answered or that the person couild answer on their own.
