Come on guys. We can do better . We have Mavericks😁

[Phimosis]

I was saddened on yesterday when I saw an otherwise interesting thread devolve into name calling and profanity laced insults. It seems as if it got so bad that it was closed to further comments. Most of us are older people . We can do better. We're talking about a TRUCK. It's not that serious. . I enjoy this forum because we're civil even in our disagreements. When I want to watch a nasty back and forth,mingo to twitter, Facebook,and Threads. Anyway, let's do better God bless.

This is how I see it: A YouTuber makes video where he pans the Maverick, then makes an account at MTC to promote his video, but disingenuously starts a thread about the video, claiming it was made by someone else, but that the content of the video was “spot on”.

Then when someone accuses him of making the video himself and self promoting, he gets very defensive.

So then someone else jumps in and starts to mock and belittle the YouTube video, because it is a hatchet job of a review on the Maverick. And in response, the OP starts to get super offended and defensive about a video, which he supposedly did not make or have any connection to.

Which then leads everyone else to pile on about how bad the video review is, causing the OP’s temper to boil.

Then on page 5, Art Vandelay jumps in and very skillfully starts to “troll the troll”, slowly and subtly at first and then openly after the OP has taken the bait.

And that leads to a complete temper tantrum / meltdown of the OP, slinging insults and obscenities at everyone that had criticized the review video, that was supposedly made by a third party, that he had no connection to. Which makes absolutely no sense, unless this guy was the author of the video and he was lying to everyone about it.

In my opinion, OP of that thread was disingenuous, hypocritical and self aggrandizing, and that he got what he deserved when other forum members criticized him.

And the swearing and insults were only coming from the OP of the thread, which led to him being banned.

As far as the “we can do better sentiment” goes, I think the other members that commented on the thread were not being unreasonable in bringing up criticisms of a video that repeatedly panned the Maverick.

Unless one feels comfortable crapping through the eye of a needle from 40 paces.

BTW ...I looked at that " other Maverick site " , he hasn't showed up there ....yet ..... ....or hes using a different name ...

He was asking questions about Mileage F-150's get on an F-150 forum I go on every night I had many F-150's before the Maverick I have now and the BS BB I had before the Maverick.

With the fuel savings from my hybrid - I'm making it to Taco Bell twice as much - and am also burning as much gas - also feel more comfortable... afterwards

I feel bad for the people walking behind You!! I use Gas X put sometimes that doesn't even help much!!

So the OP was the one who made the Video? He told Me He didn't make that Video? And I agree all the swearing and insults I seen came from the OP right before the thread was locked.

It took me about 3 cups of coffee to find the offending post...

The OP in question who is now banned was always causing a stir in his short time here on MTC. Never had anything nice to say, created threads just to stir the pot, and had a very short temper. His first thread or two were good entertainment value, but after that it quickly devolved into what has now led up to his ban.

I think there is a percentage of posters on this forum that have nothing else to do.

Then some who, well.
“ Low self-esteem is a negative view of oneself, encompassing feelings of inadequacy, incompetence, and being unloved. It can affect a person's sense of identity, belonging, and confidence.”

They feel important when they get reactions,

It’s like compensating for a little one by buying a really big manly truck.
It happens.
:’P

I did the opposite. I bought a little truck to match my little one

YES!

The OP's first threads back in the summertime would ramble on and on about how uncomfortable the Maverick seats were and he would mention many vehicles he drove and owned that were SO much more comfortable , and yet he would get all defensive about being overweight and push back against everyone's suggestions to fix the seats , or sell the Maverick .....
...and yes , there was the speakers , cheap plastics , parking brake issues he would bring up too....
The lighter side ....we all got to hear about his tennis shoes .......

I honestly think he had/has a problem ...

AMEN ....

 

[JMJB]

Yes , there were a little of insults being hurled back and forth for months , but his vulgarity at the end seemed like he wanted to commit Forum Suicide ...which he did ...

Now , AMEN ....

And happy Vets Day !

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

That thread was a heck of a ride.

I would not be surprised, if we see some of the banned members return with different profiles.
Yes, I know it takes a different routers and IP numbers it's not that hard to do.

There is one who I am wondering about already.
