In fact, in regards to making an example of a forum and being embarrassing, I could say the same to you. You've still not backed up anything you've said, other than with a book that literally does equate to something marketed to people who just don't know any better, and (that I"m aware of) has no references contained inside it. I have, in my library, a book called "Sport Compact Tuning", published by Haynes, INC. Of course, if I were to use that book as a reference to tuning a car for anything more than "The Fast and The Furious", I'd get laughed out of ANY venue.
The fact is, there is science to support the efficacy of nearly everything that gets discussed on this forum. If you choose to separate yourself from it, so be it. The undertone in posts is not necessary, though.

Same could be said about yours, coming from a member who's got 6,000 posts, I have to wonder how many of them are targeting newcomers who you find "rude." Maybe there should be a criteria posted somewhere so that they'll know how to write things in a light, fluffly manner. Any and all of my comments have been proceeded by some sort of cool down statement. I'm not here to put others down, but rather, to get the facts. Everything that I don't know about will be questioned and I'll put forth what I know in order to see if it's right or not. So far, nothing has been said otherwise.
What forum am I making a bad example of? I'm exclusive to no forum, hence why I joined this one to enlighten myself of the eco-modding world.
Here's a link to said book:
How to Build Performance Nissan Sport Compacts, 1991-2006, Sarah Forst, Book - Barnes & Noble
Now, since you referenced a library in your comment, (Don't know if it's a credible one) if you happen to come across it, the photographic image of the cover will be ingrained in your head. There's no missing that giant Sentra with a GT wing.
You still haven't admitted that you haven't added any sources either. The most you have provided was one very interesting word that I've added to my vocabulary. There are posters like you that I've encountered who seem to value quantity over their quality of statements. (Based narrowly off of the statements you've made with zero backing. I'm following your example.) In person, the tone is the same, regardless of who's receiving it. I have little patience or sympathy for you at this point, much less after attempting to reconciliate only to have been countered by a condescending response.
