I'm Back!!!

"F" you!!!

After I saw the thread with AMGDave, I knew you were idiots!!!

I may be a dope about cars or whatever, but that dude is absolutely amazing and he has to be one the very best resources for W124s that has ever graced these forums. If you don't understand that then you should be the ones with your tails between your legs.

Bring it on you morons!!! Please!!!

I can start with how rich I am then I can go on to how smart I am. Let's do it!!!

If I'm lucky, maybe I can send you bozos off to the old used C-Class forums where you belong.

Ive seen some really clean looking old c classes.

The more I think about it, the more it kinda does sound like something he'd say. A lot of c class owners have dumped their cars and put a lot bigger wheels on them since they fit easier, and I remember a post from ksing talk about hot much he hates when ppl do that.

Iunno..unnecessary thread....

I am surprised any of you dignify this guy with a reply. Clearly this forum and your responses are his entertainment. Don't give him the satisfaction of rileing you up.

You said it; he is usually very polite. Then a bunch of people ganged up on him and got personal and very mean because they didn't like what he was saying. They became subjective instead of just disagreeing and being civil and respecting his opinions. The man bought his car new and has cared for it the whole time; how many here can say that?

Maybe he just decided that rather than trying to be polite and get along, he might as well say what he thinks no holds barred. If people are going to treat you like dirt even when you are respectful then it's easy to stop caring what others think. Also, he may have had a couple drinks prior to that post.

Straw that broke the Camel's back? I'm on the fence with this because while I like Ksing and think he's got some good stuff to contribute, the other members that got all riled up because of his seemingly anti W124 posting, have also contributed a lot if not more.

Either way we should all get along. Freedom of speech goes both ways but what does one expect coming on to a W124 forum and complaining about said vehicle?

Lay off the sauce Ksing!

I think people missed the point of this forum. We are here to share information and experience that has cost some of us a lot of money to learn. We are basically giving out free info to help others with their w124s. One of the best threads I've seen is the 124-Fan transmission post. That info given in there i didn't even know and is there for others to learn from. Before I didn't know shiet about w124s till i joined this forum. Let's not fight about who's right and who's wrong because someone will end up butthurt.

People need to learn how disagree with one another.....

this forum is a ***** load of info! verry importan to our "pockets" and our minds! no jobb is a good jobb if it's not well studied at the begining. i don't trust mechanics, and choose to avoide them, primarilly because i understand that you can not know everything about every car, theres just to many cars... or everything about one car, because they would always be brocke and out off businness!
so i started reading, got trained the hard way... read diferent opinions, expressed by diferent people, each with there own experience.
the only problem is, or i feel, that some people can't find there words so easely, can't express there ideeas coursively, and some sparcks arrise from there... opinions are always welcomed, choosing from more courses of action beeing easyer.

in bottom line, THIS IS A PLACE FOR IDEEAS!

I know members of this forum have been a great help to me, and I hope to help others out as well... knowledge of these vehicles is a crucial part to owning one, as servicing one (even at an indy MBZ mechanic) can be quite expensive.

Members like 2phast (www.2phast.com) were a fantastic addition to this forum, and full of knowledge - but even though they are gone - I feel that there will be more great contributions made by other members in the very near future

In all honesty, I think the guys' account was hacked as he has not responded though, it would be nice to know if he's serious or not
