So I have several F1-related books that I'm offering to you goons if you want them:



Anyone who emails me at krushgroove169@gmail.com gets first crack at the whichever ones you want, just pay postage and one or all of them are yours. Most of these are gifts from the secret santa thing a while back and I've read them all but they're all in great condition. I'm in the UK so postage outside the UK will be a bit expensive, but if you want 'em you can have 'em.

i can't ignore all of the 1000 posters who melt down over my posts and don't bat an eye when other posters say the the same things. it says a lot that people went out of their way to change the topic and yet here we are, people keep bringing it up over and over, and they wonder why we keep getting into these situations. it boggles the mind.

I think its a generational thing to be honest. I was 24 in 1994 when I first discovered the internet and not long after that it was really starting to be pushed a a viable source of information... if you could get onto it. This was new to us, and was generally used at first as a bit of a laugh with people from both sides of the waters and borders basically using it to be like 'lol Yanks are fat' kind of poo poo.
The internet to me is still that funny place where I can have a laugh. I neither hate or dislike anybody on these forums as I do not take any of you seriously as your just anonymous entities occasionaly posting things of similer intesrest to myself. There is literally nothing you can say that would upset me me enough to be angry, these forums make me smile everyday.

Now there is I feel a whole generation that has being bought up online with the internet as a major infuence on their lives, and with social sites and forums such as these I think this generation treats the internet as a far more serious place than I do or others who saw it appear in the 90's. To us its a laugh, to the next generation its a form of communication thats instills the exact same responses and emotions as face to face communication.

Looking forward to China this weekend

i appreciate the effort, i genuinely do, but it doesn't jive with you clearly being angry and flipping out at everything i write, then wondering why i get defensive when you make it personal every time i post two words. you can't backpedal that easily.

Let's put it this way: you had your name changed to "be nice wicka" because you're a sensitive little snowflake who lashes out at everyone for perceived slights.

I am also with Myrddin. I am just having a laugh. 1998 internet crew represent.

"perceived" lol

again, you cannot backpedal so easily. you respond to my posts differently to anyone else and you are somehow surprised when i respond in kind. you sit and complain about derails you are exclusively responsible for starting. i've said it a thousand million times: if you don't like it, just stop! just stop behaving the way you behave and watch as this thread magically gets a million times better overnight.

this is a discussion forum. people constantly have discussions here, that's the entire point, and yet why i am involved you run to say "ugh why is wicka arguing over nothing again." just don't make it about me anymore and we're all fine. easy.

I usually agree with most of the points you are making, but do you really need to turn every point into a multi page fight?

You respond to people telling you to not flip out, by flipping out. Usually by saying 'no its you'

Guess what, it is you :ssh:

Hell, I like Wicka. I just use these forums to get an aggregate of any F1 news that I'd miss on a daily basis and to hear funny opinions of like minded fans. Most of the intense discussions just pass right over me.

I'm not the one that is taking offense at anything directed at you, so it's not on me to stop it. You don't have to reply every single time someone mentions you or directs a post at you. You don't have to demand that people stop posting about/to you - well, you can but they don't have to listen to you. You are free to ignore those posts, or put those users on Ignore. If the other posters won't do what you seem to be asking, that's on YOU.

This is the first time I've commented on this, and it'll be the last. Unless you bring it up again.

I like Wicka too - I like pretty much all of the posters here. I wish some like Kade and that cool guy that made the awesome steering wheel mod for sim racing posted more, though. And yeah, Alonso's pretty smokin'

I would take all but Senna v. Prost (already have it) but alas I am in the US and poor.

Also, currently reading The Limit: Life and Death on the 1961 Grand Prix Circuit. Gotta return it to the library by Monday, though.

Also, my F1-related (plus my only other motorsports-related) BluRay collection:

any idea how much shipping to the US would be? it might outweigh the cost of the book and make it not worth it, especially since there are plenty of posters in the UK who could take em.

How much do the books weigh? My in laws are coming here from Leicester, so I might get them to being them for me.

Otherwise, let me know how much shipping will be to British Columbia. I will take all of them.
