I might as well add my $.02, even if noone chooses to pick it up off the floor.

-People are restless as always during the winter.

-NYSpeed has become more of a club than a forum lately, and anyone not in the “club” or in the circle, is left aside. There are way too many cliques and sackriding.

Every now and again a good friendly jab at another is okay, and worth a few laughs, but some people take it too far, too often, and it’s simply old and annoying. Shit’s played.

You’ve been around since the beginning. It’s always been a clique. Everyone hung out with each other, all the mods, all the users.

Nowadays there are users who couldn’t pick Howie out of a crowd, or Rick, or Matt. If Russ was poking them in the shoulder, more than half the users here would be like “what the fuck you mexican jerk, get away from me.”

edit: To even further prove my point, I doubt a majority of the people who know who Goober is! Remember the days when HE was the biggest nuisance on the forum? =P

Yes, I have been around since pretty early on. I think I was a part of UBRF back in 2003. I’ve never seen the cliques nearly as evident and brutal as they are now. Sackriding has reached an all-time high.

A perfect example was demonstrated earlier in the thread between ILC and Karus. Sure, it may be annoying to some that Karus is always saying some of the things she is saying, but it is equally, if not more annoying and played how ILC and others feel the need to belittle others and make insults over such petty shit.

A friendly poke here and there, who cares, but it goes beyond that and is just plain fucking annoying.

how could you forget. I loved waking up to the top threads being  
“I love afro sheen”  
“this lady next to me keeps reading my screen”  
“Look at this fat woman in NT”  
“My ceramic elephant likes cookies”  
“Lets have a dance party at abercrombie”  
“an asian lady took my picture today”  
on a god damn car forum.

What sucks is that I don’t know if those were really the thread titles. They sound just like something he’d make though.
