to the original question, i really think it matters what forum you are in. since you will probably mostly be posting in the 3g forum, i think you will get a lot of knowledgeable responses to all of your questions.
3g owners tend to be older (more $) which brings a lot of experience and maturity to the table. you will find the occasional
, but mods are usually quick to put a stop to that. the lower the generation the tl is the less mature people you will find (ie 80/20 - 75/25 - 70/30). not to say that the other generations do not have knowledgeable people, just more people that aren't helpful, and just like to get in arguments that distract attention away from the original topics. the older the tl, the younger the owner (for the most part) and it shows in the forums.
hope this helps

Safety Car
Hey man not for nothing but I was probably the guy that was told to turn the music down..... I work in NYC and theres more noises coming from everything else around me and people complain about music? I dont really pump rap because of all the cursing going on and I respect that, another thing I dont do is open my windows in residential areas or even turn the volume up. People need to mind their own business...let me go deaf in peace please =) lol hope no one gets insulted.... oh and to the guy who started this threa what does the value of the car have to do with the way people are?

I just encountered a thread where someone was talking about how hard his cart beats from music and the lady next to him must be nuts for asking him to turn it down. Is this indicative of the rest of the people here? I have also seen posts that remind me of the forums I browsed years ago when folks talked about ricing out there 89 civic. "Yo looks here dawg, i llikes to beatz my music and you a punk asses dont usderstand, i gots like 10,000 watss and 450 hps under diz hood."
Someone please tell me this is a friendly place.

My guess would be that 95% of the posters here are decent, educated, people with an interest in or love for the TL. However all it takes is a few bad apples to leave a bad taste in the barrel. If you run into these type of punks just ignore them as they are not worth your time or effort. In real life they would piss there pants if you actually got out of your car to put them in their place, but here online they can play internet tough guy to try and feel like a man.

I been checking this thread out since it was started, and it has now gotten to this level? Datmrman, you gotta be kidding me! You rain on the wdp vs. nbp clean fun thread, and don't even feel the need to just jump in and pull the plug on this type of stuff?
None of this is what AZ is about! Who cares how one member feels about another? And who, dare say should be the barometer by which we are all judged? You get good and bad here, as well as with any other place/forum. If someone knows how to change a car component, or give a DIY on a mod, who cares if he's a punk or the poster boy for Fortune 500??
Forget the messenger and just get the message (you know, the reason you came here in the first place)!

My point was that punks with fart cans blaring their rap crap bass loud enough to shake the cars around it, can wind up posting here just like anyone else. You typically cannot expect them to talk like normal human beings, but rather sound like ignorant people from the Bronx or speaking ebonics of the ghetto. They somehow think it is cool to sound like that regardless of their educational level.

Isn't it ironic that on a thread which questions the type of people on this forum, as to whether or not they are kind or not...brings out this type of hypocritical, negative garbage from someone that has NO idea what the hell he is talking about?
Let me give you a little education, since you brought that up:
Better to keep your mouth closed
and have others assume you are ignorant...THAN TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH
AND REMOVE ALL DOUBT!!! 
You sir, have removed all doubt!!!

And this somehow makes you feel superior??? Let's get someone from the Bronx in here and see how you feel.......
and at 29 you carry a gun why? Unless you are in law enforcement I see no reason

I started the thread and didn't mean for it to take this direction. As a new member I was a little put off at first and wanted to know the type of people on this board. I wasn't going to waste my time if it was a "pimp / rice my ride" place.
