Honestly, and don't take it "offensively", but why would you crosspost when there's plenty of adivce right there?

Hell, i'd probably get a warning for crossposting stuff in the general.

He wants a broad range of opinion before he acts and in this instance I don't blame him, it could get messy legally if not handled properly.

Well i wasn't saying he shouldn't get advice, just that, with atleast two pages of advice, the crossposting need seems a bit, meh.

I've just always thought, that this kind of posting wasn't that nice.

Nah, there are a few clever people in here that don't read the general forum because of the way some people in there treat them. All brooky is trying to do is engage them to see if they have any helpful advice or can provide an insight that the people in the general forum haven't. It is a perfectly valid crosspost imo.

There's no need to cross post. I'm sure those of us who are interested in the General Discussion forum will see it anyway.

It's bad etiquette.

This is what i thought. Especially looking at the people who do visit general(most of the frequent FHOT crew).

It's always been a bit naughty to crosspost, and this is what i was bringing to light. As said, it wasn't meant as offensive or anything, just a friendly "tut tut".

I know what you mean cHodAX, but it's just, well, those who don't go to general, don't really want to cross-post their way there eiher, you know?

Agreed, I don't see the harm in this instance so to hell with etiquette.

Well to be honest, this thread would slip into the abyss of undead FHOT rumours if it wasn't for discussing the validity of this thread.

Since, and here's the beauty, if anyone were to comment on this issue, they surely would comment on the general discussion about it and as such, wouldn't be afraid to talk there AND quite possibly ferquent there *grin*

If we don't have our immoral bastard etiquettes, we got nothing left!

Just tell him to get fucked, a few scratches on the bonnet wont push his premium up that much, its probably down to the fact that he is to old to brake in time.
