Not sure if this is hatin...but it kinda looks broken when it is that low. Kinda like when an air suspension fails and she's sitting on the bump stops.

Do you have to plan your route carefully due to speed bumps etc?

Perhaps not the best attitude? Some will like it (for reasons I will never understand) and others will not...but "hate"? Seems far too strong for just cars in a world where people do real harm to each other for no good reason.

This is not necessary and may be part of the reason people who have different opinions get labeled as "haters". It's an offensive and unhelpful subjective comment. The car, in fact, does not look as you suggest. That is merely your unpleasant commentary. In the future, please refrain from name-calling, but feel free to let the community know if you like or dislike and why. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping MBWorld a civil and polite forum to exchange information and opinions.

Why I don't like it? Because your car ain't a Civic!

But again, This is just my opinion...

Thank you for your coaching on moderating. The standard is not what I like. The standard is the language posted. Your last post was deleted for calling the car "ugly", apparently missing the advice offered in my prior post. Continued name-calling will result in suspension.

Posts 10 and 11 were left as the original inappropriate behavior from both sides, with public correction, to allow all forum members on this thread to learn from the poor judgments made. The OP had the good grace to learn and move on as all can see. You could have done the same. Continued inappropriate language posts in this thread, however, will not be tolerated.

Thank you for your cooperation.

was it inappropriate language, or an inappropriate opinion?

its a public forum after all and anyone who posts must know that people will like dislike according to their own tastes,

i am just a little confused by the term "inappropriate language"; in the future ill be more mindful of my "poor judgements"

A very fair question explained on other threads, but there are so many, not everyone sees everything. Here is the simple example from which you can extrapolate to any situation.

"I really don't like anything about that car at all. I find it completely unattractive and objectionable.". (Your opinion, statement of how you feel. This is a perfectly fine way to voice a different opinion.)

"Your car is ugly. You are an idiot, etc." (Mis-statements of objective fact which are uncivil name-calling and unacceptable.)

Tell us whatever you think stated as your feelings, and stay away from making pretend-objective statements of fact which insult the target ("I statements" instead of "You statements"), and you will be fine. Thank you.
