True. But also true = Google. Honestly. I never use the search engine within the forum. I use google, add “the370z”, with or without special notations.

And honestly, people usually don’t get negative responses when they show they’ve tried to search. Seriously, there are even times that someone publicly acknowledged that he/she knows of a thread but not read it, because TLDR. Sigh...

Also - if you look at FB groups for the Z or any car forum - I swear the SAME 15 questions come up OVER and OVER again - so when questions related to exhausts, FBOs in general or FI come up - it just feels like a simple search would answer the question instead of adding to the already tons of threads that are out there.

As someone else has pointed out in the past which most people don't know is if you add site: in front of the370z.com. Example: best exhaust site:the370z.com, it will only show you the best exhaust threads from this site, not other sites.

Had to try this out real quick and DAMN - that is nice way to search. I feel most of the way I was searching got a lot of the same searches but when you are wanting JUST forum threads - this is really nice feature. Guess you learn something new everyday - thanks

Unfortunately, what you said, is going to fall on deaf ears.

That is not considered a smart question, and you will get ridiculed for it.

Then, you will get all mad and call people names.

Did I get this right?

Well, since you've read it for days, I don't need to do a search, I'll just ask you

You don't mind do you?

HUH? What was that?

cv129 · 11-13-2020, 05:59 PM

He starts crap...

Then tries not to engage with those that nail it on the head, bc he knows he can’t win.

Then he uses a short denial to a lengthy mock. Funny thing is Cooltoy was actually one that answered quite a few questions for him in the past.

cooltoy · 11-13-2020, 06:04 PM

I don't even know what the purpose of this thread is. And it should be in the off topic section, or deleted.

2string1 · 11-13-2020, 06:16 PM

This thread only seems to bother the ones that do the very thing that this topic is about.
