From all the posts of his I've read, he seems like an incredibly knowledgable guy, but with a silly temper. Just seems like this time he let it get the best of him.

It's a shame, but that's life I suppose?

yup, that's life. You cannot overstate what Xviper has brought to the Under the Hood forum. Practically every good DIY was written by him. He has been an invaluable resource for me and countless others. Imagine all the greasy printouts he was a part of. I'm glad that his threads will live on, but it was always nice to get some advice from the expert himself when you ran into trouble on a mod or a fix.

He will be missed no doubt...

Willie I hear you loud and clear, but Xv was being way bitchy and it is clear he had issues with the site far greater than Nates drawings. I have siad my peace in those threads but if he is truly gone he will be missed dearly.

I think he will cool off and come back eventually. He is too imbedded in this community.

Those guys just need to chill the hell out

there were alot of posts in there regarding noobs.. although i am fairly a new member as well .. i hope to positively impact this forum .. once i am more familiar with the car i think i will start to make some how to just like i did on honda-tech with my old civic..

but, that post reminded me of the group drive and that guy that started driving like an idiot.. and almost ruined it for everyone..

xviper was an asset to this forum.. no one can deny that.. no matter his attitude on some of his posts..

it's only the internet, no reason to get all emotional over a bunch of pixels.
