In other forums, I'm sure that content would've been heavily screwtinized and maybe members even going on witch hunts. However, the way it was delivered and the guise it was under is what was frustrating. That CAMARO could do no right seemed to be an underlying theme in the majority (not all 95%) of those posts. While one can't argue facts, one can argue intent, and that's where I, personally, took issue. Using the User Title as a badge of honor also shows intent, to me. I'm not going into what's happened in the past, but suffice to say that it's a slap in the face, really. But to really only, almost, come in to put down Chevrolet or CAMARO is not something I'm going to stand by and let happen without some thought.

JMHO.
Don't get me wrong, I agree wholeheartedly. There's no reason for someone with no interest in the camaro to be here. I was just making the point that, despite being heavily mustang bias and seemingly only interested in the mustang's performance in comparison to camaro, I don't see him intentionally riling people up or making new threads about the mustang to stir the pot, but posting on-topic info in threads. It just seems the blame game has turned thepill into something he isn't, but that's just my view.

Personally, I am of two minds in regards to the pill. One, I agree, he did seem to have a condescending attitude toward Camaros, and their is NO DOUBT where his loyalty lies. On the other had, and perhaps from a selfish point of view, I am interested in what the Shelby/SVt/Cobra will have. I like performance cars, and while I admit to a certain Camaro bias, it is by no means a foregone conclusion that I will buy a ZL1. The GT500 and the 'Vette are also up there as options for me.
