whats with the fakeness..?

[soapbox]why is it that to some extent my "bluntness" is frowned on? i mean on a LOT of internet boards im on, people get bitter when i speak my mind... if you make a post saying "hi im new here my car what do you think... then list mods consisting of the "uniwiper "conversion" and green vinyl" and i tell you your car is ass and to get lost... while everyone else is tellign you how nice your ride is.. WHAT GIVES... i mean i guess i really dont care.. but i am under the impresion that the idea of a message board is to SHARE views and idea, NOT kiss each others ass... if i think your ride is crap i should NOT take heat for sayign it... my car is NOT all that, but when i post it i ALWAYS say "positives and negative comments welcome" because i do NOT want people to kiss my ass.. if you think my rims are gay tell me.. as i use internet boards to exchange ideas and learn new things [/soapbox]
