Fargo Street does suck, i'll say it too. It is a very poor reprentation of Fargo and the Fargo Import Scene. If i didn't live here i wouldn't be reading this either. Look @ the people who are actually commenting on this thread and those of us who actually comment on the BS in the threads that go on rather then the people posting here who bitch and start shit in every other thread as well!

You guys are missing a serious point here.
Yes, fargostreet was originally created just as a forum to setup meeting places and for the people that run around fargo that are in to cars, to chat on.
I didn't know many people in fargo that were in to cars, just the ones that went to my school. Honestly, does fargostreet still accomplish that goal of new people meeting each other? I think so.
I'm sorry to all of those people who think it should be a hardcore forum, but that was never is purpose nor its goal.
I removed all moderators and administrators, I will from now on be the only one that does any sort of moderation here. This also eliminates any of those cheap shots to the guys at straightline. Obviously they don't run this site, I do, so stop saying the board is run by them.
Fargostreet doesn't have the amount of "hardcore" people for it to be a serious internet forum, and even if ALL of those people who would take it seriously signed up, there wouldn't be anything to talk about here anyway, becuase they all see each other on a fairly frequent basis.
Do I care that Fargostreet is a joke on other websites? No. Whats was MY purpose on MY website? What was MY goal on MY website?
It was for people to get to know each other, so they can meet up and have fun, so if they like to rip on each other on the internet, if they like to post whore, who cares, you can tell what thier charector is just by that.
I'm not even sure how many times I've said this, but if you don't like it, why do you all keep coming back? Do you have some distant hope that it will ever turn in to a REAL forum? Well, maybe when drake and dubbsy get thier Fargostreet clones up, theirs will be a serious website but I guarntee there will be absolutely no vistors.
Honestly, Fargo doesn't have the car population to support a real forum, I found that out three weeks after the site started. So all of you go ahead and talk shit about fargostreet on otherboards and make fun of it, but for god sakes quit tourturing yourselves by coming here.

If i think about it, the majority would be people that aren't like in REAL life, not just the internet, there's not all that many people total!
Good representation of fargo? I don't know how that could be accomplished, maybe a website of pictures of snow, and how boring it is!
Common man! Sure there's bullshit on Fargostreet,
but I think everybody that is an active member of it will agree, that they visit it becuase they are BORED. They are BORED becuase we live in FARGO. What topics could we ACTUALLY create that would pertain to cool stuff happening here? Nothing happens!

u have been the only one ot say that we live in fargo1!1 -
There's plenty of population, plenty of people, plenty of cars. It's just all the BS that goes on and is unmoderated which makes it a shitty message board. Fucking Minot for god sakes supports a more straight and on track board and that town has nothing going for it. Idk if anyone has noticed but the people who would actually have made good contributions to the board and most the people w/ the knowloedge have quit posting and have quit visiting the board. If your not in the HS clique you dont give 2 shits less or wanna sit and read threw 20 pages of BS to get to a few good posts. Seems like everyone comes on here to make fun of someone, start some shit, or just talk like a complete dumbass. Some people have straightened up their acts but some have gotten worse.
ENJOY!!

so very true jim! -
Well i have a few buddies from out of state who were possibly interested in coming down for some events but if they read all this shit and take this in as to how Fargo is why the fuck would they wanna come here? Figured being you run a car forum you would support the scene and strive for its benefit not its destruction and embarassment.

Look at that, I made a very nice effort to keep that EVENT moderated. If there is a serious event, then it will be moderated accordingly... but what events are you talking about?

If it was like any other board half these members would have been banned after 3 posts.I think there's probably only a handful of us who see the big picture here and who are interested in supporting the causde but none of us post.
Well what is there to do? Ban every member on fargostreet? Start another website?
You had moderation rights, what do you want me to do about it?
If theres a good solution, i'm open to it

Its a small select group who continue the BS and alweays cause the BS do you see everyone doing it? Moderate this fucker, get it on track and throw out the BS so we dont have to hear people complaining about how the board sucks, so we dont have to see people thread whoring, so we dont have to see EVERY topic get outta control and off topic. Then maybe some people will start posting, start contributing, and actually wanna be on here and actually may want to show up to some events, come to car shows, come to the track. But if were an out of state person i would be asking myself what kind of joke are these people, why the fuck would i wanna go there, and this is exactly why the dont come, i've had this conversation w/ a few buddies already.
-
Honestly, how the hell can you take kirks, joes, mynova's, flowcus's, or any other of these people who do the post whoring seriously.
If I lived in africa, and read this board, i'd seriously think that those people were the ones bringing shit off topic, i however, wouldn't say "why the fuck would i wanna go there, and this is exactly why the dont come" becuase of a few people.
It's like reading minneapolis's gay forums or something, just becuase you read alot of bullshit, and peoples personal opinions on it, it wouldn't prevent you from finding out the real information in real life, if you really wanted too! if they seriously wanted to, and were dismayed by fargostreet, then that sucks, but obviously you cant take everything on here to heart!
Nick remember, the purpose of it was to have somewhere to meet people, we have jackshit for car shows, and the interstate dragways board is filled with just as much bullshit as fargostreet.
Your friend drag posted just as much shit talking, prob more per total posts, and there wasn't any moderation of it, he was a buddy, I didn't care, so why the huge deal now?

Nick show me one god damn forum on the internet that keeps everything on topic... there isnt one. There will always be someone bitching, or changing the topic. Its just like life and your going to have to live with it.
Just because fargostreet isnt what you want it to be doesnt mean that its going to change just for you or that you have to start a big fucking war like this with everyone else. Just keep it to yourself... fargostreet is probably the best representation of what life is in fargo... a bunch of bored people looking for something to do so they do the only thing there is... bullshit with each other.
If your looking for a car forum that talks nothing but cars... good luck finding it, and when you do make sure to come back here and tell us all about it. Because in my opinion that will be the 8th wonder of the world. Nothing will ever stay on topic in any forum because we being people are all opinionated, and most feel that they should be allowed to express that opinion.
So sorry if we dont want to visit a forum that doesnt allow us to express our opinions... I love fargostreet, and have met a few cool people on these boards that I can cruise with whenenver. I guess it just takes a complicated person to filter out all the clutter and bullshit that happens here.
I love all the bullshit though... I guess it keeps me entertained every night.
-
I guess we could sit around, wait for 5 hours until somebody posts, and not carry any conversation on whatsoever[/sarcasm]
what dont you get about 'Run Your Mouth?'
If you dont like it, don't go there. Easy at 1,2,3.
If you wanna read somethin other then cars, go there or read up a thread that doesnt have a question about cars.
Car Tech has plenty of "unwhored" threads in it. I dont go there mainly because its not my topic of interest. I like bullshitting with the guys on here, which is why I mainly post.
If you can sense that a thread is going to be whored, simply click out of it. You don't need a fuckin sign on every thread saying "This thread is whored, please leave."
-
This has been building for so long. Dont you ever notice it'll be me and Blake will both post about the drama in like every thread? DOes it ever change? No. Does it ever stop? No.
Nobody said anything about taking anyone seriously but it comes to a point where its just stupid and annoying. When you read every thread and you got people cocking off, ripping on everyone, post whoring, etc.. its just not even worth reading anymore and it seems half the people get some sort of enjoyment by ruining all the threads and bragging about being a post whore.

I routinly visit probably 5 boards where things stay perfectly on track and moderated. Go to some boards and try pull some of this BS there and see how long you last. WILL THE BULLSHIT EVER END!!! This is my $.02 and if you dont like it, BAN ME!!!
