i check the thread title and if it doesn't look interesting, i skip it. Life's too short to sit around and complain all the time. Besides, most of the technical stuff is here already. I very rarely see a new subject.

On the technical side, do you think a cdv delete is worth it? What offset are my wheels? What engine mods are there for a 2.5i Auto? Do you think i should ditch my runflats? Should I get a bbk or an ssk? What's a bbk? What's an ssk? Which suspension should I get? Should i run 20s on my car? M6 reps are the best looking wheel you can get. What oil should I use? Why is the build quality complete shite? Why does my car rattle? Should I get an M as a dd? What's a dd? Am I a poser for putting M emblems all over my car? How do I de-badge? Should I go Icelink or Aux In? Why didn't you get an M? Where do you park? How could you park such an awesome car in the open air? Why would you not buy a coupe when it's the best looking car in the world. Here's why the M Coupe is better than anything else. I've got an M, does that make me cooler?

I think that covers most of the usual threads.

im not trying to act old. i joined this forum to share and find out more about modding Z4s and Z4M. not to see a bunch of useless threads that have nothing to do with cars. take your forum flirting to the off topic section. thats what its there for. this is why this forum is dead. its really pathetic that a girl makes a thread about finding the right guy and the thread gets to 5 pages. but if someone makes a thread on rims or something actually to do with Z cars the thread barely goes passed 1 page.

since when was car discussion technical talk. this forum was meant to for cars. not your social life

When you have newbie shmucks every day asking how to put on a wind blocker or which sticker makes their car look fast, it gets tiring.

If anyone had anything really technical or serious about modding worthwhile to ask, I'd be more than willing to contribute. Until I see questions about how to install an exhaust, or what kind of ecu tuning is needed to install cams, then we got a great topic! But if you're asking me why your paint is scratched, i really don't give two sh!ts.

And when it comes to being a car guy, I love doing my own work, so I like people who ask how to install stuff and what not, not guys who ask which shop can install it and for how much.

So if you dont like the topic, move on. Personally I think these topics are great sometimes. You get to know your fellow forum mates and realize that there are more interests that keep us as "family" than just our cars.

So CHILL out.

Interesting... How does one prove their coolness in the real world on an internet forum?

Everytime I see stuff like this. I think of this.

Dude, your living up to old joke about the difference between a porcupine and a BMW! Skip the thread or lighten up! Most of us are having a good time here.

PS: I think I might have a chance in the 100M! LOL

Well, if that was the topic then I would think it's about X5 or X6.

If topic said F YOURE A GUY WITH "Z" CAR PROBLEM- IS IT NORMAL? ... then I say it would make it very much on topic.

I wish I were your second derivative so I could experience your convexity.
