4th gen VS 5th gen banter (Poll added)

Banter goes here, and doesn't have to be Lude related

Should the banter between 4th gen owners and 5th gen owners stop?...

Yes, I am a 4th gen owner, I've had enough as it upsets me.

Maybe, I am a 4th gen owner. I can give it, but I can't take it.

Not bothered. I am a 4th gen owner, but I NEVER join in with the banter.

No, I am a 4th gen owner. It's good fun and is part of what makes this forum a fun place to be.

No, I am a 5th gen owner. I obviously have a sense of humour as I bought a 5th gen ;-)

Or look at it the other way, the 4G owners are the bullies?

Ask a school bully why they bully, "I was only having a laugh".

Merlin, stop bullying Nathan by calling him a bully!

This thread was a :worms: from the start.

I don't see any harm usually. Like others have said, in normal day to day friends we all deal with banter. You just got to take it on the chin. You bite and it just makes a 'situation'.

We all agree with everyone's arguments. Who said that nice sentence...(runs off to quote it)...


BINGO!

lol, im not feeling oppressed or 'minority' and i wasn't bullied at school. I know what it looks like though and i know when a situation is pissing me off.

hey, im all for a bit of banter and join in when its in good natured fun. but not all of us work in a building site or a truckstop or the forces so find this constant bitching anything but friendly.

My only beef is that it wears you down. you begin to expect rubbish posts and you are generally rewarded. If all other people have to say is 'you bought the wrong car' then whats the point?. I, and others, like the community. we feel we chose the right car, regardless of shape. but there is a constant assault on that choice regardless of personal experience.
Older members throw slights out 'because they always have' so new members just pick up the attitude and continue it. cant you see how obviously harmful to the community at large this is? all new 5th gen owners read is hate so they leave.

it gets boring is all, and when it gets mentioned it gets blown out of all proportion. the perpetrators of discrimination rarely see themselves as discriminatory *shrug

that 5th gen owners have said they often leave threads because it turns anti just shows im right :roll:

get over yourselves and admit your :mrgreen: of the best prelude Honda built. its not our fault you lot cant afford the newer model :P
6th gen Prelude please Mr Honda. RWD 2.4 turbo lude.

See? That's what I'm talking about! :D :lol:

Delete that other bollocks you wrote, because that's all it is James (You don't mind if I call you James do you?) I can guarantee that every single insult that I have ever thrown at a god damn 5th gen has been complete bollocks as well. How can you not see that it's purely a joke? (Not meant to hurt anyone, and forget all that "perpetrators of discrimination rarely see themselves as discriminatory" crap... Grow some! ;-) )

Just like you've done, you have had your own part in the banter, so why is it fair for you to pick and choose when others can play? Or make them feel like a kebab because you're not in the right mood?

:roll: so thats what it all boils down to? the fact you spent 3k more on your car make you think you are immune to the banter? i honestly would have thought that if you are so very happy with your car that all this banter would wash over you ?
