> [@Nikuk](#): > > The only reason that things _should_ be more civil here is because it _is_ a local (mostly) forum, so you are very likely to see the people you talk shit to. Ive talked plenty of shit iv seen a lot of people in person no ones ever really seamed to care case in point: pass mcgrass i said TONS of shit online i met him at 87foxgt’s 4th of July party we talked he asked where i got my bottle of molson i sent him over to the ice bucket to get one of my beers we talked more while drinking my beer done i think the reason this board ISN’T civil is BECAUSE its local (mostly) we fight like family around here knowing that - for the most part - we can come back and ask for help if we need it. if we all took this shit serious, no one would ever get a response to their threads that were actually helpful ---

Hell, TheKID and myself had a huge shit fit and I talked a ton of shit to him. But we finally met up and raced and he’s actually a cool guy, no problems at all since. It’s just a message board on the internet. Way too many people get bent way too easy. ---

I’m going to call ILC a fag all day long, but when I see him in person… well I’m going to call him a fag then also. Maybe everyone else views it as hostile ( or as a noob described me, violent ) But it’s all good. There are some people that carry their grudges into the real world, like jesse, but it’s not much to worry about. ---

i’d love to go back and see all the threads where we decided it would NEVER be adictatorship, and that was what is wrong with UBRF and thats why users hated the mods on ubrf at this point i think its a pride thing, matt and rick know that MAYBE in a PERFECT world thier system would be better, they know they put time into it, but they don’t want to admit it sucks and everyone hates it ---
