Default Metro's Venting/Rambling Thread

A lot of Metro's members have complained that this regional forum has become dead. I want to throw out this idea of a venting/rambling thread. I just want to say that this isn't an original idea at all. Its something I noticed Honda Tech and Upstate NY both have. I think it can be an easy solution to bringing back some life to this thread and making our local members visit the Metro regional forum first before they venture off to other threads (FI, marketplace, gallery, etc.)

RULES
-Feel free to share, vent, and ramble about anything thats on your mind. Tell a joke, share a video, complain about your blown motor cause you went turbo . As long as you keep it somewhat classy then no topic is off limits.

--Feel free to introduce yourself if you want too. Many of us know each other on a first name basis but if your a new member an introduction can be a good way to get to know you if you havent come out to a meet before.

COs I know you might be tempted to move this thread to the Off Topic section of Metro but if it does become a successful thread I would like to keep it in the main section. From speaking to other members, many of us rarely check the off topic section. I feel like thats where threads go to die no offense. So I am asking that we keep here on the main forum. Hopefully it can become a sticky if we all participate.


Let me start it off.
Intro: As a new CO I feel I should introduce myself, especially since many of the NY guys don't know me too well. My name is Harry. I am 25 years old. I was born and raised in Jersey City, NJ. Currently driving a MY00 NFR aka Anuj's twin. This is my second s2000 (first one being a my00 BB) and I absolutely love this car. After a shitty day at work I just take out the S and I forget all about how crappy 9am to 5pm can be. If your a new member and your reading this just want to say come out to some meets. Personally I have met a lot of great people by going to humpday meets some of which I hang out with outside of the whole s2000 thing. I hope this thread can bring some life back to metro and would appreciate your participation.

There are some old Metro rant threads burried deep down in the time capsule.


My first rant ... why are people so damn lazy that they can't check other sections of Metro and s2ki...
I mean rules are there to keep these every flowing sections clean and well organized. It's really just ONE click away from the main Metro section. ONE DAMN CLICK!!!!!! really .. come on now .. really!?


-end rant

I agree with the Barry .. Props for bringing a fresh new one to Metro, Harry. I also think with some time we should revisit some of the pinned topics. It looks like some of those sponsers may not even exist anymore
