I have three people on my ignore list. Two of them are there because their style of posting without punctuation. One because he's a tool.

Because of posting without punctuation that seems kind of odd I cant believe a couple periods and commas could mean the difference between making your ignore list Do you not think youre overreacting just a wee bit

I don't use ignore, I'm too curious. Terrible posters can be the most interesting thing on CP on any given night.

If I was that concerned about it, there's be alot more people on the list. The two that are on there are beyond terrible. It's less of a hatred thing and more of an alert to not even bother to attempt to decipher the post.

To tell you the truth, I can't even remember why I don't like the guy. I just looked through his profile and saw that his last gazillion posts were in a game thread, so I'm not going to bother trying to remember. I think I'll keep him on ignore, though.

I just watched the Big Bang Theory... those of you who like Star Trek, I think you'd like this episode, especially for the Cameo Appearance.

Anyone who knows about cars...

What sort of performance upgrades could be done to a V6? Is it a waste of money?

Obviously I could never get this sound since this is the GT model, but if I could even get close I'd seriously consider paying for it.

2:55 in, you might pop a woody:



What's exhaust worth?

Wil Wheaton was in the trailer, so needless to say I'm stoked.

Brand new Exhaust, you're looking at mostly $500+ some could cost you into the $1000 range. But those actually add a bit to your performance. And guys, Performance exhaust aren't supposed to be LOUD, they're just lower pitch so it sounds louder... those loud cars that you hear are most likely exhaust tips... and exhaust tips don't do jack

I don't want it to be loud, I want it to be deep. Thanks for the reply though. Do you know if it affects warranty at all?

I figured you'd want a deep low pitched sound from it.

I don't know much about Warranty, but a lot of people say that unless they can PROVE that the modifications you made CAUSED the malfunction or whatever happens in your car, they will honour the warranty.

Insurance on the other hand, is a little different. A lot of insurance look down on performance mods, some will let you do it, some will let you do it at a price, some will drop your coverage if they found out, some will not drop you but deny your claim if they find out. Insurance is really confusing when it comes to mods.

That's pretty awesome. I don't think I have either...never got into it as a kid, and certainly didn't as a geeky teenager and adult. It never clicked with me.

I've never watched Star Wars or Star Trek, so I'm always lost when guys get talking about it on here.

I don't even know how I ever started liking Star Trek. I think it was because A Channel used to play reruns of it at midnight, while there was nothing else on, and I liked to fall asleep watching TV.
To this day, I'm a total sucker for TNG. If it's on, I'll stop whatever I'm doing to watch it. Unless it's a Crusher or Troi episode. Or when Data does his Sherlock Holmes crap.
A good Worf or Picard episode, and you can pretty much write me off for the rest of the hour.
