Funny thing is that he has been kicked out of these forums countless times yet he keeps on returning with diffferent names to validate his insecurities.
Yea 1SickLex is the known idiot of the forum world. Almost banned on every site because all he does is praise LExus and bad mouths everything else. And if you prove him wrong, he locks the topic and locks your access out on clublexus. But then the big Admin has to step in and give your access back and slam his foot down on 1SickLex. To what I heard recently, Sick is about to loose his admin rights.

He was actually a fine, contributing member here for a long time then totally turned everything into Lexus vs whatever and made life miserable enough for the admins that he was banned.
He has been doing that for years though.

That day cannot come sooner. ClubLexus would be a muuuuuuch better place without him. People would actually be able to have a voice! You can always tell when 1SickLex gets a slap on the wrist from the head admin....His comments become less biased for a brief moment until the phase of the punishment wears off. But give it a couple days and he's back to his good-old self.

P.S. I dont think anyone on ClubLexus hates the RL and Acura in general as much as he does.

What do you know, RL is involved again. They talk more about Acura and the RL on ClubLexus then we do here.

I agree that the NSX is a REAL supercar, but let's savor the RL's victory anyway. I wish more people got what the RL's purpose was. Acura really needs to pick this up and put it in some ads.

"Acura RL. Forbes Magazine's 2006 Japanese Supercar. Business consumers appreciate the RL's style and features. How about you?"

OK, sounds lame, but better than what Acura's doing nowadays in terms of marketing.

^ It's funny you mention marketing because I can't remember the last time I've seen so many TV spots for the Honda Accord. Am I the only one who's noticed that?

Sicklex in his bipolar phases would do the exact same thing, and now he's chastising someone else. That is just rich.

Yah, and the Lexus ES doesn't look like a Camry, isn't it a Camry rebadged?

What else is new...

Thats funny that you mention him being bipolar, lol. Now it makes me really wonder because sometimes he's tollerable and other times you just want to run over him.

Does anyone here know what he does for a living? With the amount of time he spends on the forums, he can't be doing anything respectable for his age.

This guy has also owned some type of Lexus since he was a kid, probably mommy-daddy.

I doubt that. He would have a bit more class if his parents had money. He would most probably have gotten a brand-new Lexus too, not used. I don't know if you remember the ten page post he made but it was something about him and having purchased his first Lexus I think ten or so years ago. It might have been 6 years. Not sure. The way I would picture this guy from what I have seen on the forums is that he lives pay check to pay check and he financed his used Lexus 90% and probably has a hard time affording the gas. This is just my opinion though and what I imagine it to be after I have seen ihis behavior on the forums. But now that I see his pic, it kinda insures my thought even more. lol. He probably has a gold tooth.

lol...


Just so you guys know, I am the one that allowed the acura to win.

The reason?

It has to do with a long vendetta that has risen between the honda and mazda forums. I'm sorry that I brought you into our battle, but it was the only way to smash the s2k.

I wrote a program that auto-voted around 2000 times per day.

Either way, the Acura RL is a super car!

I'm sure you did vote 2,000 times but it was only counted once. Most online polls record your IP address. The voting software will disregard multiple votes that come from one IP address. It doesn't matter if you clear history and cookie files either. Either way, you should have used your program in round two where the S2000 beat the RX-8. Assuming it works.

this was my real time vote chart.

http://www.onerandomthought.com/othe...5&display=text total vote breakdown

My software renewed my public IP twice a minute; therefore, I could vote many times.
