Just like everywhere else on the net, there are a lot of people who post lies for no purpose try to deceive and a lot of sheep who believe them. I'm quickly learning that there's no use in trying to point the deceivers out because the sheep will come baaaaaaing to their defense... oh well..

The worst part is that the car looks pretty darned good without the chick.

yah and the chick looks pretty darn good without the car too...

but when most ppl r voting they dont really think they just vote on what comes to their head, like without thinkin so in that case sex does sell... and in every other case too...

If you ask me, the whole site is a joke. I mean, really... how hard would it be to set up a forum, so people could show their cars and get real feedback instead of a stupid rating.
Then you could weed out the posers and retards, with some hilarious and degrading comments and send their stupid a**es walkin.
In a nutshell, Xmods site blows goats and I would stick with winners like Tiny RC, Bitpimps, and RCMod anyway.

Not to mention does the rate an XMOD suck, see the messageboard? It's just hilarious, going from Tinyrc's awesome board, to a mb with people talking like they're in a chat room (also found here, but at least most of us know what they're saying)... Lot's of stupid questions...

Well, guessing from what I've seen on there, the average age of posters is about 10...

dude neuro! ur right! look at this page and see topic numero six? that has to be the most amateur statement ever lol.

xxspeednplayaxx · #25 12-23-2003, 09:54 PM

hey neuro, sorry about your pic being swiped like that (ill have no mercy for such an insult) good luck with the x-modding

hey lemans, i was cracking up when i read "how do you get you xmod to run straight" any way above that it reads "double your power" and it tells people to remove the capacitor and reisitor on the motor to gain speed lol "stupid retarded noobs" all well my x-mod should b all painted by monday... project "Blitz-Kreig" begins saturday

lemans23 · #26 12-23-2003, 10:16 PM

haha. but what i was talkin about when i was on the site is the post that said "how do you make the xmod go really fast?" that is hilarious!

HAHAHA! That's just hilarious. Another fine example of how the Internet can help you lose your faith in humanity (and grammar)

That site is run just like the stores "total RS control" everything has to be "APPROVED" before being posted (very lame-what are they afraid of).

There is no reason to really go there other than to see if something new has come out but even the we usually know before they annouce it.

It is good for a laugh though.

lets face it...as soon as you post an image, it's bound to get copied, linked to or used for dubious reasons. i actually found one of my overland pictures used in a site banner for another forum! how f'ed up is that?!? it's one thing to link to it or post it but to use it in a representational way is fraud to me...

anyway, as stated earlier in this thread, please take the time to get good pictures. a good picture of a mediocre car is better than a crap picture of a great car. bc has some nice ones, ask to see his mad force pics

i take great pride in most of the pictures i have in my MANY albums. alitlle work goes a long way.
tips:
1. natural daylight is almost always the best. glare and shadows can be a pain to avoid. but in some cases they are intentional
2. when necessary, use the macro mode...so tired of seeing blurry close ups. i know some don't have that feature, sorry.
3. many more but this is not a photograhpy class

Well, I acctualy give some props to the people who put thier "real" xmod on the site. At least they didn't take other people's pictures or photoshop real cars (that one pale skyline straight from the bomex website... Isn't that plagerism?) or take stock pictures nd photoshop them...People these day really neeed to start tell "and" showing the truth.
