    Thats how I take it now.

    Very true.

    Not true at least in my case, roll-a-tuna (just kiddin) but I can't say the same for other newbies.
    I had a feeling that something was off, cause I think I was the one who asked about these chippees not too long ago,

    http://vvti.net/forums/showthread.php?t=13304

    But since others started playing around, I thought rollatuner was serious too.

    haha We gotta mix it up a little bit once in a while. It's too straightforward in here. Don't worry, this is my first time. I thought it was obvious that the speed chip was bogus. Its always been known as bogus. Well, if you didn't know, you do now. LOL

    unfortunately, people who come here to ask questions occasionally don't know everything you do. deliberately misleading people isn't a good way of mixing things up, and it makes people question you when you try to sell things on here. congrats, you just lowered yourself in the eyes of newbs to the forum.

    you want to mix it up? post some nude pics of a hottie - preferably no one anyone knows personally.

    let's keep the morale down, people. we're not allowed to joke around in here. it's a place for sharing valuable info only.

    This just shows how people can be brainwashed into thinking some bogus product will work. Consider it a lesson which will teach one to do their homework, research, and think for themselves. I never had anyone hold my hand and tell me what works and doesn't work. And yes, it was just a joke. The bubble would have burst sooner or later anyways. Some of the comments like about the welds on the intake manifold and only 20 hp was supposed to make people realize it was just a joke. In this day and age, there is no excuse for not being able to find out information on anything. There's the library, bookstore, and the freakin' internet which is a superinformation highway sitting right smack in the middle of everyone's home. Do a little homework, and decide for yourself what is right and not right.

    falnfenix, I'm sorry if this offended you or lowered myself in your eyes, but I'm sure you had to figure out things on your own. I know you don't blindly follow the masses and join the bandwagon on some ridiculous crusade. It was merely a joke and a test to see how many people haven't done their own research to fall for it. A test of ignorance may I add. I'm glad to see that most of us on here knew right off the bat that it was fake.

    not picking at all , but you contradicted yourself twice in here .
    hence leading to this: (this is not directed directly at rolla tuna:D, just saying he contradicted himself in the paragraph)

    for the others , to whome it applies.

    it would be good to have a good , if not one of the best info sites on the corolla here at vvti.net . now lets say a noob comes along and does a search on a speed chip , and pulls up this thread , not reading the whole thing . see what she or others are saying? there are no self rightous people here , just people that want to learn , and people that want to help in that process. jokes and squabbles , disagreements and confusion only hinder that experiance for some.


    if your on here just to chat , like i see some of you are ( still havnt seen any useful questions or answers) then get a myspace or something , this is an automotive site. for people that wanna know about their cars.

    judging from the age poll , most of us are 22-25 . seriously? do you guys not have lives? if your not on here trying to get info for or on a corolla why are you here? my point exactly. either post useful , correct , or anything w/ a hint of common sence post. or find somewhere else to waste your time , and stop waisting others .

    for christ's sake , im reppin this site , for corollas on my corolla , and this is what people will find when they get here? kinda embarrasing really.:(

    if you take this to heart or have a acute or negative comment to this , it shows you are ,on this site for the wrong reasons.

    yknow, i learned by coming here and reading what others had to say about it.<br />
    <br />
    fortunately, back then this site didn't have asshats on it trying to lie to newbs. this was also back when Eric was still one of the people running the board, and it was busy as hell...and Eris was still around (i miss her).<br />
    quoted, because THAT'S THE POINT FOR FORUMS LIKE THIS TO EXIST. THIS IS WHY NEWBIES COME HERE. if they don't know, they come here to find out - and blatantly lying about it only makes them more confused.<br />
    <br />
    <br />
    yeah, that's cool.

    Like I mentioned, it was obvious that it was a fake due to the silly responses. I don't see how anyone can actually believe it even after those blantantly obvious signs.
    Forums on the other hand have never been accurate. I don't take everything I read about on forums word for word. I do my research by browsing through sites, companies, retailers and the such. Forums can only add to that information. It is NOT the information itself. If you take and learn everything from forums alone then you yourself are misguided. People make errors and can be mistaken. Reputable websites will have accurate information because they are the ones wanting to sell the product to make money. Who else would know their product better than themselves? Besides, why sort through forums when you have more useful tools at hand. i.e. Google? The internet wasn't only made for forums. Its a way for all sorts of information to be seen by the public. And with all sorts of information, one must make decisions as to what is to believed or not. Nothing is perfect. So how am I being cruel by deceiving newbs when they are already being deceived by countless others when they should be judging for themselves? They may be a newb to the forums, but they are not newbs to the internet or to the world. Nothing is as it seems. And there is no one to hold their hand and tell them exactly what to do? This thread merely showed how people follow blindly to the peer reviews of others.

    Shes not over-reacting.....a specific person asked about it, and he was mislead. We were all noobs once, and maybe the person that asked the question wouldnt be able to tell that people were pulling his chain at his own expense. Though who knows...maybe the jokes on everyone else for actually believing his statements were real, lol.

    Mislead into thinking the chips he never bought doesn't actually work? Okay. What's the big deal? Did he buy it? Was he or was he not told within three days that it isn't true?
    Too many super self-righteous people around these boards.

    Alright guys, let's get back to work.

    Looks like the Morale Supression Team is all over this one.

    no judgements , and no not just this thread , but the whole forum and all threads in general.

    and just stating that if most onhere are in the 22-25 age group , why the pointless jokes? thats all .

    would it not be an embarassment to you if you were reppin this site, and send everyone you know or have met in the corolla scene here for info , and this is the kinda ish new members see when they get to this site?

    im really not being judgemental , but if your not here getting info or sharing it , then what? let alone dispursing the wrong info.

    ive said what i need to say here . marinate on that for a second. i wasnt trying to be a smart ass , just honest.
