Re: I really feel like an ass!
Good troll example link http://help.com/post/421893-i-got-naked-at-walmart
Bad troll example would be the guy that leaves strings of swear words as replies to every post or forever trying to start fights |

Re: I really feel like an ass!
Fordbarn and other old car forums are fertile ground for college students. Those wishing to do a class project on social networking could not find groups of people on the internet more unwary than ... frankly, Model A folks. "Salt of the earth" guys ... pure as driven snow ... eager to help someone. Make it a female. Ever notice notice how "helpful" us older guys get when a female shows up? Make that "someone" a 13 year old and document the reactions. Several social changes in America would be worth exploring. The first would be that a 13 year old with a computer can be given the credibility of an adult. Note that he's never accomplished anything, according to the image presented, other than sitting on his computer eating Fritoes and drinking soft drinks. This is not surprising since in many households five year olds dictate what's for dinner, what's on TV, and where the family goes on vacation. Perhaps more difficult, but more rewarding to document would be how "real" a message board can become, and how a special society can develop with bonding between certain members and with a bond to the board itself. The reactions to "Garrett's" proposals over on the Model T board would have guaranteed him more than just a passing grade. Amazing how threatening a kid with a computer can be and how he (or, someone) with a computer can bamboozle the boys.

The fact that I befriended the kid is irrelevant here. I have a son his age so I can understand his enthusiasm for antique cars and I also think that adults should try to encourage young people rather than just being obnoxious old farts to them. I happened to notice that Brent Terry is also one of the kid's friends, so does that make him a bad guy too? Didn't think so... Quote:

Re: I really feel like an ass!
I think Hoop makes a lot of good points that we should all keep in mind.

Re: I really feel like an ass!
Been done. Try a Harley Davidson one with a model a flywheel on it. Not the best idea ever but it would be unique
