"Rookie Forever"
Yeah i can see it being one of those ironic titles!

Poor Cerbs!
I don't think you guys get it... I really don't...

I answer way more than I ask on here... I log in every day and see
what I can help with. I've physically rebuilt 480's for people to keep
them on the road. I've installed a prize winning carpc setup.

Rookie... I'm not a rookie by any stretch of the imagination.

If a mod wants to see me set a land speed record for deleting an account
then they can feel free to change me to "rookie forever".

I 'get' a lot less from this place than I 'give'

Getting bored now...

That's a joke your making ? I mean are you really upset?

Sounds like Rookie speak to me.

Dude, man up. Some of the best respected people on here have sub 400 posts. Its no indication of what we think of you!

If

If you can keep your head bolts tight when all about you
Are blowing gaskets and blaming it on you;
If you can trust your infocentre when all men doubt it,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can push and not be tired by pushing,
Or, being posted about, don't deal in lies,
Or, being raced, don't give way to Porshes,
And yet don't look too oiley, nor torque too tight;

If you can tune - and not make the Richmod your master;
If you can use filler and not make bodykits your aim;
If you can meet with triumphs and delorians
And treat those two imposters just the same;
If you can bear to see the tyres you've inflated
Slashed by chavs to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the rear clusters you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with glue and tools;

If you can make one heap of all your seatbelt arms
And risk it on one lap of Brans Hatch,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your turbo and popups and heated seats
To serve your turn long after the car is sold,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on";

If you can talk with R5 owners and keep your virtue,
Or walk with C30 owners - nor lose the common touch;
If neither misfires nor rusty arches can hurt you;
If all bolts count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of tyres spun -
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a '480 Expert' my son!

Course I'm not, dafties!

BUT i've got to do SOMETHING to get you lot posting! OR
how am I going to get my post count up.

It is irritating me tho. Seriously. I know it's daft and I know I shouldn't
care. All that planning and excellent timing... to get Advanced Rookie?

Correct me if I am wrong but isnt and 'advanced rookie' someone who is
more advanced at the art of being a rookie than a 'rookie'.. and therefore
a step backwards?

It shouldn't bug me.. but it does..

We need some epic threads... Other forums have them. I'm getting old
and grumpy I suppose but isn't anyone else bored to tears of answering
the same 4 questions over and over and over again....?

Again.. that shouldn't irritate me... and by and large I try to help people
out even if they don't deserve it due to lack of search button ability...

It's.... Just.... Starting.... to get dull.......

Hmmmm... If a jobs worth doing.... Hmmmm......

Peace and love... Peace and love...

lol @ JT.

I used to have no posts like you mate. Oh hang on that was when I had no 480 friends or was that when I had no friends lol.

@ Cerberus, IF you are getting a bit upset then really don't worry we all think your special anyway

If your having a laugh then WE are having a laugh with you and JT just helped make it even better! I'm sure there should be a forum section where we save those special threads (no digging mind!)

An epic threads section.... Like Hall Of Shame only for good stuff...

We need some epic threads first tho!

Perhaps we should just start a really sweary thread and see if we can get it into hall of shame....

This thread makes me happy post counts are removed on other forums I post at!

esta · Post by **esta** » Fri Jan 02, 2009 9:29 pm

Yeah I like the post count as well, but I think there should be more "titles" every so many posts, and once you are over a thousand no more titles

stig · Post by **stig** » Fri Jan 02, 2009 11:11 pm

Ya barstward......I thought you were serious !!!

I still wish that I knew half as much as you....you must feel like a Doctor at a party.....could you have a wee look at my back Doc ?
