A toast to our fallen Noodles thread:(

A General Discussion forum for cars and other topics, and a great place to introduce yourself if you are new to NICO!

Thanks Fred. I was starting to panic. I spend more time on this forum then I do on the internet otherwise. I've learned so much here in the past year I don't know what I would possibly do without it. :(

Werd. Is it just me, or are people nicer on the NICO boards?

I'm always out of the ****ing loop... I have no idea what the noodles thread was, and don't believed I've ever looked at it. You'd think with that many posts I'd have looked at it at least once.

I think it's nicer here because we all have a tendency to blast the douchebags with smart *** remarks and such that there was no call for.

that and we all tend to be a bunch of dirty skirtchasers:D

the noodles thread started out talking about, well.. Noodles. And the different types people liked. It broadened to many many topics and had well over 2000 posts before the mods decided to take it down. Several of us were really bad post whores(myself included) but others had some funny stuff in there(like Mr1der for instance)

I think people are generally nicer in Nico because we share alot of the same interests, also our love for our Nissan/Infinitis'. So we're all willing to help each other out as well as encourage each other along the way. It's a fun place. My favorite place on the web by far. :D

I definitely agree with both of those. Maybe this group is more mature or something, but I definitely don't feel the "You're a teenager working on your first car, shut up and search dumb***" vibe...

Your Moderators and Admins have worked very hard to make sure we have a supportive environment.

Thats whats been making us successful I think.More hits than Autotrader.com.

That's part of the reason they are admins tho Mr1der. They're responsible people who help keep Nico running in tip top shape. Which is more then I can say for me and my hatch. :(

All other Admins are tech support folks.

NICO has only 3 General (Purpose) Admins, Greg, Myself and Torry aka ezcheese15.

And Lauren you know you make me smile too, more than anything. I really can't wait till you get here, I don't think you'll ever want to leave. I really need to make sure the house is clean before you get here, change the sheets, dust vacumm, do the dishes, I don't want you to think I'm slob. See you in a few hours.
