MrPudding, I would have to agree with you on that.

Oh sh1t looks like I shouldn't have agreed to that

Wossack

Aye C_Breezes first few posts in the thread where a bit OTT, but sure this is the motoring forum, whatcha expect?

To be fair to Mr Pudding, this post is clearly not personal abuse.

If he had said "I think you're an arrogant prick", then that would be personal abuse. He began, however, by making it clear that he wasn't calling C_Breeze an arrogant prick, but was saying that his posts give that impression. Personal abuse is when one attacks the poster, not the posts. In this case, it's the posts, and not the poster, that were being attacked.

no, you reported hashs one, just after you edited the personal abuse out of your own post which is the sad part.

WhiteWashMan

by your argument, that means that you or anyone can insinuate that anyone else is 'insert whatever your favourite term of abuse is here', but claim that you didnt actually call anyone a name.

but, you may disagree all you wish. the ban stands. its a week. im sure mr pudding will survive, or will post up on the feedback forum about how unfair i am. either way, im off to watch House on the tele.

Back to the point. Does anyone not feel this statement is scary?

Give me a motor and I'll handle it just fine. Confidence in ones ability to drive ANY car in ANY conditions...

Lightening , i don't see anything wrong with that statement. YES i can drive any car in ANY condition? - thats why i have a full licence . Doesnt mean ill be acting the prat in it

Can you not?

I have never crashed once and I would never push a car past the limit where I would not be able to handle it or be in control.

Its not like you need a special licence to drive a RWD in rain. If you cant handle that you shouldnt have a full licence in the 1st place.

Why is that a scary statement?

If I remember my trolling correctly, this type of comment is typical of C_Breeze.
The usual "mad tyte drifter" stuff.
To be fair though, his trolling is usually successful, often there are bannings, but rarely him.

Where do people come up with this stuff???????

I dont ever recall mentioning anything about drifiting once!

When there is a thread that i know i can help out in and advise or give an opinion I am more than happy to do it! (see the 323f thread , or the one about the log book)

Only when its stupid suggestions or posts, then I take a tongue in cheek approach and then people just start hurling abuse and get banned!

I don't know, I don't think so, I would imagine I would need lessons if I bought a super car with paddle gear shift.

The statement is either one of a F1 driver or someone who may be somewhat imature. A full drivers licence in Ireland would not qualify me to be able to drive any car in my opinion. However, in your vast and long experience, you seem to be the one with all the knowledge, not me.

To be fair, you do rile people with your crap attitude to driving. It always seems deliberate to provoke a response. If its not deliberate then I await the day you make a post asking what legal advice to follow as you have managed to kill several people in a horrible accident.
I have commented on it numerous times before. I am not specifically chasing your name around, but it is blatantly obvious when you enter a thread.

Cappo

If C_Breeze is so very confident and would like to prove his uncanny motoring ability perhaps he should challenge himself to the Irish advanced drivers test – www.irishadvancedmotorists.ie - he could even post a copy of the results on the board for us all to see!


Even with my full licence and 40 years plus driving experience I don’t reckon I could handle every car and every condition. :cool:

cpoh1

Why for the love of god would someone who as a full licence not be capable of driving an m3, m5, evo or skyline? If they cant they shouldnt be on the road in the first place. The only thing that makes these cars different on a daily commute keeping speed limits from a normal car is that they have a heavier clutch and tighter gearbox. As far as I can recall C_breeze never mentioned anything about driving these cars on the limit which is a different story altogether. Get a grip lads.

i was listening to the radio the other day and there was a piece about what makes a good driver in the safe sense. a few things came to the fore.

young males make for very skillfull drivers, due to good hand eye co ordination etc etc, however, this was differenciated from good driving.

good drivers display an awareness of the road around them and whats going on.

part of the advanced driving course is to call out potential hazzards you observe as you are travelling along. this simple exercise really puts things in perspective.

the bhp and 0-60 figures of cars only becomes relevant when placed in context. skill wise, most "young fellas", id imagine, are well capable of driving a high powered car. but it enables them to drive faster than their ability to observe hazzards ie they can get to 60 in a shorter space of time, reducing margin for error etc. but then again, a granny in a fiesta can drive faster than her ability to observe hazzards.

lets just say they make better track drivers than safe drivers .

Jumpy

They also generally havent had the life experience to know that showing off makes people dislike you, rather than be impressed.

jesus, this 'young lad' bashing is a crock of crap.

I'm only 23, but I don't spend mz time drifting my car round roundabouts or stupid things like that.

I see as many drivers in their 30's and 40's doing stupid things on the road because "they have the experience"

No because they have the arrogance. There is a difference.
I reserve the right to bash young lads. 23 isnt a young lad.

Eh, no. He made it quite clear that he was attacking the posts, not the poster. If you're going to ban posts for insinuated, as opposed to actual, insults then you'll need to a.) change the forum rules and b.) give up the day job.

With respect, I think you might be better employed rereading the thread.

I was expecting a healthy discussion - 3 pages of discussion infact, this thread is a let down! Best closed IMO, nothing new or informative in it.

If you had been banned, thus depriving you of the right to defend yourself against a false allegation, then you might think differently.

First off, my comment was on the thread itself and what it has turned into.

So, what is your point exactly? How is it motors related?

The majority of participants reading this, want to read worthwhile threads and possibly contribute... they don't care about trolling or disputes with moderators.. take it to PM's

C_Breeze

C_Breeze leaves destruction in his wake !



Joking


Thread would be best closed tbh

You're right, at this point the thread has nothing to do with motors. My point is that someone was unfairly banned. To shut down the thread is to draw a veil over that, and I for one don't think that that's right.

If i said "From reading your posts, your appear to be a jackass", would you, or would you not take that as a personal insult?

Note, I am not actually calling you a jackass, or actually mean to say that is the impression i get from you, but merely wondering how you would react to such a post. IMO, if it was said to me, i would interpret the comment the poster was saying i was a jackass (which i probably am)
