Good video. Should probably be made a sticky... http://projectboil.pixel10.co.uk/posting/Posting.html Dom
Wow. It deals with a lot of the issues I see people griping about here all the time! (reposts, posting in the wrong section, etc)
Which tool in boots is going to start a new thread about this "new tread" just to be a tool on a hot tin roof?
LOL! That was great. I guess I'll tack this on here too: Well, in a large way, post count does matter. You see, there is still the same social procedures of getting to know a new circle of people and gaining trust first, especially before people will be willing to offer 'personal' information. An analogy: say you, a young man, walk up to a table of older gentleman you don't know sitting at a country club. Without introducing yourself and becoming acquainted, the first things you say cannot be about rap music or offering a business venture. Weary of scams and disinterested in rap, they will reject you. They will not care for what you have to say afterwards. You have to be in the "in-group" before you can do that. This board is the same as making friends in person. You have to gain a certain amount of social acceptance first to talk about sensitive or personal issues, and have some sort of credibility to earn it... whether it be the cars you own, your occupation or 'connections,' paying for your membership, being entertaining, or most importantly here at Ferrarichat, your passion for the marque. When you offer one of these to add to the community, you will be offered acceptance from the group. Typically, it is non-owner young men who ignore these patterns and are rejected by the group. It is not arrogance or pretense, but common formality. Luckily for these bold young men, this forum is full of patient people like Dr. Tax, with a lot of experience and wisdom to pass down. Hopefully my breaking this concept down reflects that patience.
