Just don't buy their ----... they'll go away. And you can easily ----- 100 posts in a day or two.

Yup... I'm sure if they are trying to sell stuff right away on here they are doing the same on other sites...

They will soon learn that HMT is a home for cheap bastards that refuse to pay regular prices ;D

And they will go away and continue to get better prices for their ---- on other sites... problem solved!

they will learn the hard way that we are very cost sensitive (or cheap) ;) and go somewhere else to sell their crap.

Re: Influx of Newbs
 
I'm not saying I was going to buy from them but I was scanning the Classified and the first 5 I looked at where from newbs. As soon as I saw how many posts they had I backed out and went on with my surfing.

Technically I'm a newb to the forum but I've been researching/ planning from the site for like 6 months. But ya signing up to just sell stuff is gay. Thats what EBAY is for!!!!

FURACERMAN 04-23-2005 05:26 AM

Re: Influx of Newbs
 
They're getting flooded with newbs at sohchonda.com too because of honda tuning.

Re: Influx of Newbs
 
With out any "newbs" this site and the whole sport compact sport would die off.


Besides, you need newbs to show off how smart you are ;D

Re: Influx of Newbs
 
hahaha i like how every noob feels the need to justify themselves and say, well i been readin and researching for x amount of months, lol uh huh comon now, no need to lie 8)

Re: Influx of Newbs
 
The more newbs the better, we are not having problems with new users scamming members. If you look at the classified ban list its all senior members who are having problems with selling stuff, so a "post limit" really shouldnt be enforced at all.

Re: Influx of Newbs
 
i agree with abaz, hotrex and ssl2k are the ones having problems not really the newbs
