I'm too lazy to search and need the scoop on your thoughts of Kumho 712 tires

I'm sorry, but what's your problem? You asked a question, he said they suck. What's the problem?

You're funny, but don't quit your day job okay?

Keep violating the posting rules. Maybe you can be known as "GTRBlkMax97 that got banned". hehe.

to be honest, I don't really care about whatever problem you have with bill. If you have a problem, please email him. I don't really care for any of that here.

I think the Kumho's are an awesome tire. I've had the 711's before and would love a set of 712's. There aren't many tires I'd prefer over that one honestly. I think the only ones are Bridgestron RE730, Dunlop SP Sport 9000, and I think that's about it. Maybe the Yoko Parada.

For the last time, I'll try to keep this on simple terms:

Since you didn't read that thread you referenced yourself, this may be hard to explain anyway. I'll give it a shot:

Q: Need your experience with Kumho 712 tires.

A: Do a forum search and visit Tire Rack (link provided). Lots of good info in both places.

Q: I've done that, but I need personal opinions.

Side note commentary: At this point, it's obvious that the member did not really do a thorough search. I personally know of many posts involving people's thoughts on these tires. The question and response at this point was not worded to indicate any research on the member's part had been done. Jeff and I have seen this enough through experience to understand that a lazy newbie isn't being respectful of opinions already on the board.

A: A re-statement that using the search function on the board will yield personal opinions. Jeff states he has commented numerous times personally on other posts.

A: I then ask if he understood what "search the forum" means. Then I go on to say many posts on people's experiences on these tires are readily available. I then refuse to give a link because it took me all of 30 seconds to see 243 results. I then ask why we should do research for him.

Side note: Then you butt in asking me to calm down, etc. And then try to say that search doesn't work, BLAH BLAH BLAH.

A: Jeff responds to your and the member's question by re-stating that a search he performed yielded a lot of info, as well as browsing on TireRack. Then makes a comment that it's much easier for someone to be lazy than actually do research, but if they hadn't been lazy, they would have already received 10 times more info than the current 2 replies he had gotten. Then wonders why he can do research, but this member can't. Then is actually nice and states a personal opinion anyway.

A: I answer your question by saying it doesn't require a brain surgeon to do a search on the forum. Then I called him too lazy to do it himself, and that many experienced members don't like to repeat themselves.

Side note: At this point, THERE IS NO FLAMING OCCURRING. Only statements of fact. Keep this in mind as we continue.

Q: Member responds by asking WTH our problem is. THEN HE STARTS THE NAME CALLING BY SAYING "arrogant *******s". ONCE AGAIN HE STARTED THE NAME CALLING. I hope that's clear.

Then it esclates from there, BLAH BLAH BLAH.

I sincerely hope this helps you to understand why it is necessary for us to make examples out of those who aren't interested in using this site for a resource but rather a sponge.

Have a nice day:
