    User's rides does and don'ts

    Egg Nog came up with a great idea to check the ownership of cars posted here. Since then only very rarely have people turned out to be fraudulous, yet the skeptic and foremost rude responses to new cars posted increase by the day. Being a former law student I hold strongly to the principle of innocent until proven guilty; the Egg Nog test should only be called in case of doubt. Despite frequent warnings you don't seem to learn. This is the final warning.

    Here are a few examples of what not to do:

    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    Right. It's such a great idea to bounce around gaily and just treat some of these situations as jokes.

    It isn't a joke though..

    I'll admit I have done this sometimes myself, and I will put my hands up and admit to it..

    I will not treat it as a joke.

    You guys are saying that the egg-nog should be a request, not a demand, right?

    So, when I come onto this forum and say, this is my current car; A Ferrari F50, you guys aren't going to demand a egg-nog? If I refuse you give one, you're not going to have any problem with it?

    Are you seeing a problem here?
