RCing = Soap Opera


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
I am tired. I am tired of constantly seeing/hearing nothing but bashing and name calling towards other peoples opinions, ideas, and comments. Its getting really old really quick

I feel like I am watching an episode of "All of My Children" or something, and man is it ever annoying.

I know in the past I have shared my opinions towards stuff, everyone has, but now its just getting stale. Everyone out there say "I" if you got into this hobby becasue it was fun......."I". Now, say "I" if you got into racing becasue you thought it was fun....."I". Now say "I" if you are sick of seeing all these racers and RCers crying, throwing purses, and sucking their thumbs over whatever it is this week people are complaining about....."I".

OK, by now you have probly got the point I am trying to get across. My point is that it is this is just a hobby guys, not our jobs (well atleast for about 3% of us it is their job). I know we have heard this from people in the past but its true, IT'S A HOBBY!......(grabs Webster's Dictionary)

"Hobby-An activity done regularly in one's leasure time for pleasure."
Key Word-PLEASURE!

Common guys (and gals), we need to make a change around here. There is so much bad blood, and negativity around here that its sad. Be more positive, have a better look on whats going on in our hobby today, its a hobby....lets keep it that way

I admit that I contributed to this whole negativity and brawling today. Unfortunately the issue is not that people take this hobby to serious, it’s that this is their attitude towards everything life, we are just seeing a part of it here. Someone thinks they are smarter than someone else and desperately want to prove that. There is no more equality in society. There are those who think they are better than everyone else, bullies if you want to call them that. There are those who are just plain arrogant. People are become spoiled and they are not being brought up correctly. It’s a paradox: We live in an atmosphere which contributes to this type of behavior, yet humans are the ones who create this atmosphere.

The biggest problem is. Everyone thinks they have the answer to all the problems.

And as it turns out the answer to this problem is very complicated because we cannot change other people due to the stubborness in the air. Telling someone to grow up like I did today will not necesseraly make them grow up. Their life is in their own hands. They have to become aware of the effect they have on the society. We all do. Everyone needs to work on themselves and not point out the problems or issues of others

And also, I'm not saying we all need to start going Barney the Purple Dinosaur on each other, we need to become more courteous. I'm going to stop saying "we" and work on "I" and "I" alone for now
