ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Rice was never an acronym in the beginning. It has always been a slang term with negative connotations, used for any vehicle of Asian origin. Originally coming from the term "rice burner", because rice is a dietary staple in Asia. It is actually a very racially charged word.
    The acronym was only created by people that drive Asian vehicles to try to defend themselves.

    Over time, the term has simply come to indicate disapproval. It is generally accepted to refer to any modifications that are gaudy and functionless, but I've seen it extend to people who go overboard with expensive modifications, especially if they'll never be used (such as a 700hp show car...)

    Either way, it's offensive, and nobody should ever use it directed at anyone else. Whenever I use the term, it is in an effort to discourage someone from taking a certain path... such as "only ricers slam their car on stock shocks." Essentially, stepping down to their level... because an ignorant kid won't see the reasoning behind "lowering your car for $50 isn't safe"... but he may stop and think "oh, if I do that, I'm a ricer?"

      I don't think the issue of flame was specially to what type of car or statements made. I have gotten the dis for posting a question or it's not in the right area. I use this site and like it's style...except for the threads I read and someone says .."what did he post a worthless thread for?" Or "Did you read how to search?" To me that is a flame. Opinions will be either good or bad and should not put down anyone for how they roll. Questions are asked and the members, mods and Administer should be flattered that the person had faith in the site to ask something they hope this site can help their problem.
      We strive to keep our Accord sedans,coupes and wagons on the road and away from being an extinct model only remembered on print and in junk yards....and have fun here too.

        As Raf99 put it "I'm all about respect."

        That's about the truth right down to the bottom of it.

            Telling someone to search without actually answering their question, or providing a link to the answer to their question, is against the rules. People get banned for that, when it's noticed by a moderator.

            Granted, sometimes people should search. I just banned a worthless member (a 38 year old man that types like a toddler) for posting a thread about an H22A headswap. I answered his question, and I called him lazy (because I know I have PERSONALLY answered that question well over a dozen times in the past year alone!) While I called him lazy for not searching, I still provided any information that wasn't already provided by another member that had replied.

              Point taken...we all get annoyed at the ones that ask the questions that can be and should have been searched before they posted the question. I'm glad to see the issue is seriously handled and I personally apologize for thinking it hadn't.

                You'll very rarely see a thread on this site that says nothing but "search!"
                There should always been some info given, or a link to the necessary info. If you ever notice a thread that does otherwise, please let me know about it!

                      Saying "ew omg RICE!!!" is just downright insulting. Yes, it's the internet, and people shouldn't take things to heart... but you know what? We're not just a bunch of random dudes on the internet. We're a community here. We talk to each other on a daily basis. We interact, and ask each other for help. Our interactions are very "real life", despite the fact that we don't see each others' faces.



                      We had a member get banned for 4 days for a comment he made, He said something only mildly offensive, but he randomly put (R) (I) (C) (E) (Y) tucked between words... very clever. Rather offensive. Of course, he made another name right away and started attacking me and the mods... "this guy (himself on the other name) was banned, but you didn't ban that guy there... thats not fair." (that member is now permanently banned, btw...)
                      "that guy" was a guy that said, "I think it looks pretty ricey, but you did a good job with it."
                      Same offensive word, and honestly, I don't like the way it was stated... but it wasn't an attack. It wasn't ban-worthy.



                      Show some tact. Show some respect. That's all we ask.
                      what if they flame you then you flame them back ? is both of them going to get banned?

                        Yes sir. I don't care to pick sides. Flaming is flaming. I don't care who started it. I ban all involved, and the mods have instructions to do the same.

                            If someone flames you, and you want to get revenge... PM a mod and get them banned. This isn't 6th grade, where being a tattle-tale is frowned upon. Here, that's considered being responsible. As long as it's within reason (I've had people crying to me about every little thing another member said, and it gets irritating when overdone!)
