I hope these guys dont come out with a supercharger that way i wont have to see escorts stick around. You want a real car, buy a BMW. BMW = the best, Zx2=cheap crappy cars. Spend the money you guys saved and sell your cars and get a BMW. F*CK escorts. | Now what to do? I don't think it's right for someone to do that since I sure would hate for someone to do it here. It is only a matter of time until we know who it is. __________________ ...steven BMW CCA #146825 1996 BMW 328ti • 2003 MINI Cooper S • 2016 M235i www.bmwcca.org | | | 08-16-2006, 01:18 PM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Lincoln Park Capitol Hill, Washington DC Posts: 741 | He/She should learn there are other ways and words to express disrespect or hatred of other makes and models.

That is very disrespectful, and shouldnt be tolerated. It gives 318ti.org and BMW in general a bad name on other forums, and i highly doubt we want that.

The definition of a forum troll is someone who goes around to different forums and is amused but starting arguments. Most of what they post are nothing more than blind offensive banter to encourage online disputes. Simply put......they have no lives. I voted 30 day ban, but this will most likely just stir the pot, and add more fuel to the fire of this troll. But discipline has to start somewhere. __________________ "Power Rules, Smooth is Fast, Late Brake if you HAVE TO, But Always get the Inside Line.......and Fear No One." | | | 08-16-2006, 02:03 PM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: 43609 Posts: 3,425 | Quote: Originally Posted by Juni As long as online forums are around, so will forum trolls.

The think the best thing to do is to have them make a formal apology to both boards and be done with it...no need to waste everyones time worrying about if its going to happen again and who's name will get stained in the process. EDIT: Also, change my vote to ban for life. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone 1998 Schwartz II sport 318ti - M50TUB25/5 | | | 08-16-2006, 02:03 PM | #8 | doesn't care about you.

If it is a situation where this person has caused trouble before it should be a perma-ban. It would be one thing if they just went and did it on their own, but they followed a link from a thread on this forum, and both threads had to do with what could be a great product for both makes of cars. | | | 08-16-2006, 02:39 PM | #12 | doesn't care about you.

Let's try to keep the relationship between zx2, 318ti and SEAM on good terms, for everyone's benefit. __________________ '99 Dinan M3 | | | 08-16-2006, 03:17 PM | #13 | TRETEN IRGENDEINES ESELS Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Rhode Island Posts: 3,687 | I say ban for life,we don't need people like this on the forum,it will only lead to bad things and i can see multiple people getting a timeout on this. __________________ 98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active clear outs all around,stealth turning signals,blue led interior lights, 35% tinted windows,K&N air filter, 12" Kenwood Sub, MTX Thunder Amp,Alpine cd changer, Leatherz Armrest,ACS Pedals/Handbrake/FloorMats & Vitesse Tuning Carbon Fiber B-Pillars/CF Spark Plug Cover, New 16" MSW Typer 14 Rims on Goodyear Triple Treds www.myspace.com/avusblueti | | | 08-16-2006, 04:50 PM | #14 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Saint Paul, MN Posts: 3,244 | voted ban for life.

Posts: 102 | Voted 30 days, but only on the premise that this is a first offense. I don't have extremely high hopes that it would make much of a difference, but I'm willing to give whoever it was the benefit of the doubt. Happens again?
