I’m a little surprised there was no discipline for the posters who went too far, if it’s enough to shut the thread down it’s probably fair to make the bad eggs sit for a few days IMO.
Everyone just report the bad posts so they get a few days off(and we get some from them!). I'm sure the mods aren't reading every turd, point them out.

I don't think anyone cares but if you're looking for a bike storage solution I put this in my garage and its awesome. Probably the coolest thing in my house.

A bunch of NIMBY twats in Banff voted to kill the pedestrian zone. Lame.

Even the guy they tried to doxx was happy to keep it going lol. And sure enough, they’re back at it in here after they got their way. Bizarre.
I have to say that you were gold in that thread. I don’t know how anyone would have beat you!

It's amazing how many people will roll through stop signs or even red lights when making a right turn. They usually end up going 10 under the limit too.

Why did the mods let the two infants get their way?

That's letting the terrorists win.

That thread was always doomed. It was a self-fulfilling prophecy as mentioned in the OP.

In July on a Tuesday it took me 35 minutes to get from the golf course to the highway… that’s ridiculous.

If they can figure out the infrastructure it could be a good idea.

So I thought, but you know, I do have my defenders and can have a laugh with most people here. I didn’t fully realize it until that thread but I think I have to up my game. I’m thinking if I can make it here 20+ years without making a friend or having anyone in my corner, then I’ll be the top dog I believe myself to be. That’s true power.

Being hated by the low hanging fruit is one thing. But can you imagine being hated by everybody? That’s next on my list, baby!

It's important for everyone to have a goal in life.

Anyone who couldn’t foresee that thread becoming a flaming trainwreck within 24 hours doesn’t understand this forum as well as they like to think.

It was actually fine for several days but good effort. Maybe participate next time.

They might as well just keep the thread open, it's Pandora's box now. We're gonna be talking about it elsewhere anyways, haha. Wrecked TorqueDog in my opening round.

Pepsi's annoying-ness worked against him, people voted against him to not give him the satisfaction.
