Facepalm facebook fail finds

[CrawlinMike]

I think it was more for the kids on fb molesting their trucks and having zero common sense.

And those that WILL not hear anything about how there is such a thing as too Complicated or too much flex. As for the members here, I went through the lift it flex it 120mm shock phase, and I am glad others around here pointed me in the right direction. That way, when I got tired of my rig performing like crap, I had their guidance to fall back on.

Another spring system in the back that I just can't comprehend.

Much scale, so smart

I've given up even trying to talk them out of it

I stayed on the group. But unfollowed them. It was a 24/7 stream of Rc diarrhea on my wall. Actually sold a tranny there today pretty fast. Hardly ever glance in there.

I UNfollowed a few weeks ago as well. Changed my life!

Why all the bashing on folks ? Especially on members of this forum.....

We all enjoy this hobby in different ways, live and let live.

I guess I dont understand the mentality, almost like school yard days with clichés and play ground bullies.

Im out, enjoy your toy trucks"thumbsup"

I think it has something to do with that Facebook group in particular. A lot of what they post would perform poorly mechanically and physically. When more experienced hobbies to have politely tried explain to them that there may be a better way to setup a truck to get the performance they say they want. They have a tendancy to become beligerant and belittling to the person trying to help them.

So those that know better started this thread here. If they don't want our help, we can still give them the attention they want their rigs to get, but trash them rather than praise them.

Many of us have tried to help them out, only to get e-bitch slapped.

Trust me I know what works and what doesnt when it comes to performance.

I also know some folks like shelf queens, 3000.00 all alum this and thats, mud trucks, mega trucks, or RTI ramp kings.

I also know what it means to help someone, along with what ridiculing them means.

Just an observation, carry on.

I think this thread allows us to vent a little instead of keyboard assault.

There's no helping those that don't care. Nor those that don't listen to advice.

if that guy spent as much time working on his setup as he did photoshopping the chit out of his red and blue bling...

and its fun to see how silly people get with what they want or how they approach things.

Cant fix stupid

Murder might fix stupid...

 

[EeePee]

More like, Darwin should fix stupid. Eventually.

 

[gbean]

Entropy counters that idea though.

 

[Meatwad]

So do they contribute to entropy or are they a product of it?

we counter that every day by buying cars that parallel park themselves, and have all of these advanced systems in them. i dont need a car to tell me if someone is in my blind spot, know why? because i can turn my head and look for myself.

Product of it.

 

[EeePee]

The smartphones aren't helping either.

 

[offroadace]

All these generic flex shots are killing me! Don't you all know that if you UN-Screw the skid plate bolts you can get MAD-FLEX!!!
