    Very true, it does seem that the cars that get a good amount of attention are those that are semi-dream cars (they are easier to attain with a little more hard work.)

    For me forums have become boring because everyone seems to have turned so fake....everyone seems so concerned about their online persona, they can`t even be who they really are. Several months back I had a conversation :phone: with a well respected member that left me scratching my head........they acted so different then the way they do online....just be yourself. If I can tell your fake, I`m sure others can too





    Great thread David l:

    Personally, I enjoy seeing real in depth click n brags. I also remeber back when click n brag threads were common and easily had 100 pics in a thread showing every possbile area of the vehicle, and really gave you an idea on how much focus was given in the detail showing the true turnaround. Threads like those were kind of inspiring and gave me ideas on my details, and helped me improve my techniques. Now a days, its more common the see a couple before exterior pics, followed with a couple afters

    Alright Flash, if you get a call from an old Icelandic woman with a Portuguese accent, don`t hang up.

    I enjoy the click n brags, I do like how people break down the details to explain the process and how to resolve a problem.

    I don`t get too excited about the Exotics.



    I like the bread and butter daily driver transformations and the huge turn around`s on salvaging a totally trashed older vehicle and restoring it into something proud enough to own and drive. Those are my favorites...



    I read and reread many of the articles here and use the search function to glean as much info as I can from everyone here.

    I`m not a huge poster mostly because I don`t think I`m worthy enough to post anything of quality or do work as good as many of those dedicated here that detail for a living. My hat`s off to you all.



    But I`m willing to learn and enjoy the forum. I find it very helpful for me.



    Thx...

    I think this is a hugh problem here. For whatever reason this site has always seemed intimidating to post on. I think if the weekend warrior that wants to post up the 28hr "Detail" that he/she performed on their DD they should be able to do so w/out worrying what kinda response they will recieve :nervous:



    As far as Click-n-Brags in general. I think if someone takes all the time to document and post, they should at least take the time to come back and thank the ppl who responded. Not only is it common courtesy, its a great way to bump your thread! Plus you won`t look like a douchebag in the process :yo:

    What`s wrong with a weekend warrior posting a CnB about their DD here? What kind of response are they "worried they will receive"?



    This forum is not a haven for flaming people who are trying to learn and improve by delving deeper into what they`re doing and trying to understand why things work the way they work.



    I just get tired of all the "politeness/generic answers" sometimes :puke:


    Hmm... I see less of that (the generic answers) here than I do on some other forums.

    Because if you don`t "fall in line" with the "sheep" you probally want recieve a response at all



    Honestly, I could do w/out the Click and Brags all together. Pictures and Videos never show the true outcome anyway

    Are you confusing this with AGO, Flash?

    Hmm.... I wouldn`t go so far as to use those kinds of absolutes.

    I guess we could argue back and forth for a few pages on this, but I just don`t have that desire tonight Charlie



    I`m well aware this is Autopia.org, not Autogeekonline. Thanks for the heads up though

    It all depends Scott, here is a pic of a single stage correction I did with my DA last week.
