I didn't find anything extraordinary - just a bunch of people bench racing.

One night not being able to sleep after a long day at work-I made my first post to the site. I challenged one member who is particularly viscous in attacking anyone or anything that does not subscribe to his belief that Pontiac is the Supreme Being.
I have read the board for years and found it amusing to see the ruthless diatribes against every other car marque or enthusiast, but this was my first time challenging the propaganda spewed from the site. As soon as anyone is challenged in a fair and reasoned debate they are immediately blocked by the administrators and censored from posting a response.
It is clear the administrators at the “Pontiac Performance Years” website refuse to offer a democratic debate for other viewpoints.This makes one all the more appreciative of “The Supercar Registry” where all varied opinion and reasoned discussion is tolerated and encouraged. RM

I have no problem with spirited debate, as a practicing trial attorney that is what I do for a living. However when only one side is allowed to express their viewpoint and the other side’s views are blocked by the administrator of the forum that presents a real problem. It only serves to diminish any level of credibility the site or forum has with its subscribers. It is an easy task to attack someone’s views-if the other side is left defenseless and unable to respond. This seems to be the rule of the day at the Pontiac Performance Years Bulletin Board. RM
