I was just trying to say that I could see both sides. It takes 2 to argue. I prefer to post smileys like this.

It's even more beautiful when people can stop using age as an excuse of why something can't be and realize age DON'T matter but the person themselves dictate what happens. I've seen 14-16 year olds that have been through and more mature then 50 year olds. My best friend had to raise himself and his younger bother and sister on his own when he was 13 because his father wasn't around and the mother was a drug addict. He paid the bills to keep the lights on and enough for a meal everyday. He is now 29 and in the same social class as me, which is a fairly high one.

So yeah that's why I say age don't matter, it's clear to see since we got people in their 30s and 40s here that act as if they are still in grade school.
clearly we got past this portion of the debate. genius

I agree too.

But keep in mind this is the internet. Some people are posers, misrepresent or are just trolls....take everything here with a grain of salt and you'll be fine.

Exactly, he's exactly the type that STEVE DALLAS is referring to in his opening post. I can nevermind him. All my post and points still stand. I'm sorry everyone's life isn't what he expects them to be.

Some of the threads were started in such a way as to be seen as bragging. Heck, just mentioning that you are 16 is unnecessary, but not unheard of.

Most people say hi, but my problem is that some people take what I think is a prejudice against people with money, and spew hate and vitriol at the original posters based on the fact that they don't deserve to have a car because "daddy bought it".

Simply put, this kind of attitude should not be allowed on the boards. We don't allow racism on the boards, and frankly I don't think we should allow classism as well. I've been seeing too many people take this too far.

It's fine to say "Hey...I worked hard for my car", but to start calling people names because they come from a different family and background is wrong in my opinion.

We -should- give these young drivers a hard time when they talk about racing or getting run off the road by old men 1 day after they bought their car, but is it really that big a deal to you that someone got a Camaro and it was paid for by their parents? Do those of you that feel this way think that the Camaro is so exclusive that you have to find reasons for people to not deserve one?

If so, I think the following words sum this up...

A competent and self-confident person is incapable of jealousy in anything. Jealousy is invariably a symptom of neurotic insecurity.
Robert A. Heinlein
I never like all the cry babies that complain that they had to work so hard so that's why they deserve a camaro. Like Clint Eastwood said "Deserves got nothing to do with it".
