I think the animosity toward Sam is that he talks about a lot of things without actually knowing them. I won't disclose conversations we've had in IM but its rather obvious that Sam knows Sams world. I haven't said anything in his thread(s) but Sam IM'd me for several hours numerous times a week asking about what to do for his transmission swap. It wasn't until I told him the specs on his used clutch that he realized it was already shot. Or how to properly remove/insert the rear main seal on the motor he's using - even though I have done this more times than he has cut lawns. I am not really one for "taking credit" - I help tons of guys out with BMW **** daily, but what is funny is that he'd ask and then come onto TST and post that "he figured it out" or something. We all start somewhere, but most people acknowledge that - Sam seems to like to act the experienced sage, when in fact most of what he is doing is for the first time.
Sam you have a real desire to make your situation worse than everyone, harder than everyone, more experienced, and more intelligent than everyone. That's really not appealing. Some of the comments you make are straight up ignorant.
