Let's meet this head-on . . .Alina, what do you REALLY want???

Okay, I have to agree with many people here about not wanting this site to be labled as a flame board. I also have to agree that if someone has been banned twice, then there's a good reason.

I also know that it's hard for a leapord to change it's spots. But, not being the one of the most active posters, I'll try.


Alina, what do you REALLY want to know? Asking about differences between ROW's and flopping around isn't going to get you the information you need.

Do you want to know what car to buy??? Go and drive as MANY different examples of what you can afford as you can. If it's a question of cost of ownership, I'll be the first to tell you that if you have 15k, then buy a 7.5k - 10k car and bank the rest of it as a buffer for later repairs and upkeep.

In a short, concise, congruent paragraph, tell me what you want.

She wants to ask questions. For attention.

First she wants to know what mods she can get for 200hp.

Then she wants to know if anybody has a better car than her boyfriend.

Now she has $15k for a car.

Let's just steer her to a Carrera GT board, see if the high rollers put up with "HEY GUYS I WANT A CARRERA GT CAN I TURBO IT ajajaja?!?!1"

5 to 1 says it's OCD.

Okay, so was it comments like this that pissed you off???

I can sorta see why, but if you want to be part of a forum, you've got to let it roll off of you. Don't ever base your self esteem on other peoples opinions. Trust me they have their problems too.

d.a.

You may not be aware of previous posts. Some of them made by "the perp" were downright personal and inflammatory. When this happens over and over agasin, it is obvious that the objective is NOT to learn, it is to cause as much dissention as possible, the true earmark of a "Troll". Read the other current posts re: this individual. On one of them Z reproduces a quote directed at him. Interesting reading.

Why are we all spending so much time on this Troll? She was banned, came back without my approval, was banned again, came back again...etc.

Ignore Alina and move on. Please do not respond to Alina's posts - she is a troll and will continue to disrupt this technical forum as long as we all respond to her. Since she keeps signing on with a different ID (and email and IP addy), you can't just ignore the user. But you have the choice to not engage her in threads. Let's say she logs in again as ALINA_again, and posts a question about a 944. As difficult it is not to be drawn into a thread of her's, just ignore it! It will be locked/deleted/moved soon enough, and ALINA_again will be eventually banned. After some time, Alina will grow tired of this, and move on to something else. (hopefully).

Yes, Alina has struck a nerve with me. I don't do well with folks telling me to go f*&k myself. I also don't do well with folks who disobey forum rules, and who continually badger reader of the 944 forums.

And Alina, if you are reading this, take note: any further harassment on these boards, and we can take further action. We have your IP logged. You missed your chance to be a member of the Pelican Parts online community.

Can we PLEASE move on from this? Can someone start a post on how to turbocharge their 944 n/a or something??

Thank you,
-Z-man.

Maybe there should be a "do not poke the trolls" stickey that names Alina in it's subject line.

lol, I was thinking the same thing after reading that post. Man I've been away for awhile. I've missed all of her other posts, sounds like a good thing.
