I (like others here) post on a 'car brand' forum. they rarely ever discuss mpg muchless FE. I had been posting here for the last 6 weeks about my progress and finally posted on the Q45 forum site.
The hostility was.....welll...... I'll let you judge....

the post by PARINIOD JACK toward the end was completely unexpected.


Can a 2002 Q45 get 31mpg on the freeway......: Q45 Forum / Cima Forum: Nissan Forums / Infiniti Forums - NICOclub
That thread would have gone so much better if you'd just ignored the sophomoric posts.

Remember, just as much as they were trolling, you were biting.

I try to push this fact out there alot. If you're responding, you really have no reason to complain... (Not saying that you were complaining, but you get the point.)

I do it too. I respond to some of the most infantile BS posts you could read, except I do it for fun. I don't mind going completely OT for a few posts (as you've probably noticed) because eventually, trolls bait themselves. You find the bait, and you can run 'em out quicker than fire burns.
