At the very least, pony up the 17 bones for the membership before you start making suggestions on how people should post to please you. Until then, leach for free and STFU and RTFM.

Apparently, smart enough to buy a 928 doesn't really mean smart; the responses here to a serious suggestion are, at the very best, sophomoric. I must admit that in this area, this forum disappoints greatly. Now I'll just sit back and wait for all the replies that will make my point for me.

Hey man, we can be sophomoric with the best of 'em, but THIS IS the place to come if you have a 928 related problem.

When you want to be part of the gang instead of an anonymous user name you'll have more fun here.

Word.

Apparently, smart enough to buy a 928 doesn't really mean smart;
...Nor apparently does it mean smart enough to figure out what a simple abbreviation means

Jeez…someone hasn’t taken their meds today!

Acronyms are a part of life in the internet world. Just because you have difficulties deciphering them, why should the entire Rennlist forum change to accommodate your shortfall?

I call dog pile on rhys…or 100 yard penalty
