Yup. That it is.

It's a lot about T-shirts and decals today, and instant gratification, not leaving room for sitting down and thinking things through.
You do have a point, and I do see bashers many times being all about pre-built stuff and mostly concerned about if the car will hold up to driving in to stuff.
But at the same time I'm really amazed sometimes by racers really being stuck in a strange mentality of "monkey see, monkey do".
A basher would at least listen to advice, but possibly not be concerned about things that really do matters for racing.
I would think the forum is big enough for everyone, and being clear on what matters to oneself might help people to see if it's the advice they want to take/make.

I was very much against Facebook, and in some ways still are. But in the end of it all it's just people being people and you can decide how involved you want to get, poisonous group mentalities is everywhere in the society though they get a little bit more room there. In the end it's a tool and you choose how you use it, sometimes it's great to use to stay on top of things that happens (that's of concern to you) as well as getting advice (on things of your interest).

Facebook has nothing of value to offer to me - especially when they have proven over and over again that they do not care about the users’ information and will do anything for a buck. No thank you. It’ll be a cold day in hell before I contribute to such a debacle.
