STOP BUMPING OLD ASS THREADS.
How the fuck do some people manage? Is this some new rule for messageboards that I managed to miss? When a thread is dead, it's dead! Reading it is fine, but don't fucking bump it! There's a reason it fell down in the first place: everything useful has already been said. This is not the first time this has happened, and this is not the first time someone (including me) has expressed an opinion about it. Do some people need everything fucking spelled out for them? There is basic forum etiquette that is expected to be followed, and this is part of it.

Yeah, yeah, I know (for example) CJ just bumped his Mustang thread in Gearhead, but that's different for multiple reasons. If this needs to be explained to you maybe you should pull your head out of your ass first, then we can talk.

Needless to say she won't be back, nor will this thread be around when the next one comes around bumping threads from 2003
