True, you putting me on ignore wouldnt stop me frequently helping people out on this forum, and frequently annoying people who WANT to be annoyed in life, the sort that moan about X-factor etc normally so it wouldnt be the end of both useful services on here like my arms going would.

Timrud, in certain ways absolutely, hence the x factor analogy I used previously in this thread, some people just WANT to be wound up, so they let people they have never even met "get" to them, which I find hilarious personally just cause I have the strength of character myself that means I dont ever let silly things like x factor contestants or people on forums etc get to me.
But its very funny when other people do, just says SO much about how content they are or arent deep down IMHO

I think jedward are crap singers, so I personally wouldnt choose to listen to them, but some other people listen to them just so they can get annoyed at them, strange people IMHO but then by nature im a love not a fighter, I always assume the best of others until im proven wrong, rather than vice versa like a lot of folks choose to, which generally leads to themselves getting wound up or unhappy all the time it would appear.

How on earth have we gone from F1 to xfactor

The reason people get wound up? All they have to judge you on is what you write on here. And we both know the same sentence can be taken more than one way! Once people are antagonised your very good at goading them. Then you get an army of haters, then we end up where we are now....

How would you react if you were arguing with yourself?

Indeed, like I said, its not about whats written, its about how people choose to read and react to it, the people who get wound up by my posts are the sort of people who get wound up by all sorts of things in most cases im sure.
Personally I never let anything that anyone posts on the internet get to me, why on earth would anyone do so? especially if its something as totally impersonal as talking about valve springs, if I was calling your mum a cunt or something then fair enough if it upsets you I suppose, but getting upset over someone chatting about valve springs really does demonstrate some issues with the reader not with the writer IMHO


How would you react if you were arguing with yourself?
I tend to stick to being factual, so I cant imagine a situation where I would disagree with myself or anyone else who is of the same very factual and accurate mindset, but if I did do so, I wouldnt "react" at all, its just not something worth getting upset over, Ive got a very close family member currently dieing of cancer, why would I get upset over something on a forum? The people doing so must have had very sheltered lives if someone talking about valves springs is able to make a difference to their happiness levels enough to feel the need to moan about it!

lol!! thanks for the grammer lesson Mr R. see you on track next year. We'll see if my shonky bit of jap crap can keep up with your dagenham dustbin ( possibly not judging by your list of wrc parts going on to your car lol )

on the subject of valve springs (which we were once upon a time), why don't they have dampers? surely you could have a cunning system that varies the spring rate (by a moving seat under them that varies with engine speed or something) and the damping so that you can get the optimum compromise between valve closing, bounce elimination and cam shaft load/wear? don't know if anyone knows of any work in this area?

I use the site because I enjoy talking about engines, turbos, psychology, finance, morals, management.

Dont particuarly like talking about myself, but for some reason loads of other people such as yourself do so, so I will reply on that subject as I think its rude not to when a comment is aimed at me, but its not something I enjoy talking about TBH, would much sooner stick to the engines and stuff, but for some reason Im just too fascinating for some people to resist.
