[quote][/quote] u already started wit a curse oh. As for me, I have an auto but still got myself a manual. There r many things a good driver can do with a manual tranny dat can't be done with an auto. Secondly, autos r boring to drive. They r so easy dat I often find myself dosing behind d wheel. I luv manual, n manual luvs me.
Re: Is It Cursed People That Drives Manual Vehicles? by purefella(m): 1:06am On Jan 30, 2012
Thanks Decotech and am sorry if that word cursed scares a lil bit but i wasn't cursing anyone , i asked if it could only be the person is cursed that sounds harsh i know but that's how i felt after driving a manual vehicle and from your reply you stated that the auto appears to be too easy that you often find yourself behind the wheels , , Definitely you like things being uneasy than being easy , something that you can put more effort into to get what you want than just getting it right away hmmm thanks for reply i appreciate it . I need more replies Nlers thanks

I have a hard fast rule that I've never deviated from, my sports cars are all manual and my luxury cars are automatic.

If I expect to be conducting business while driving, i.e. meetings and such then I drive one of my auto powered cars.

I've been commuting 5 hours a day for the past 3 months in a manual car and I don't feel tired. And the car has a high performance clutch which requires more pedal force.

To each his own.
Re: Is It Cursed People That Drives Manual Vehicles? by Joy2Dwise: 6:33am On Jan 30, 2012
Cursed? So that means you became cursed the moment you stepped on the manual car huh?

Gosh! Did you even bother to check the meaning of that word before you punched your keyboard?
Re: Is It Cursed People That Drives Manual Vehicles? by Nicols(m): 6:59am On Jan 30, 2012
@ Poster,
You don't have to be rude to express yourself 'cause your post really sound like a direct insult to people who drives manual cars. Auto transmitted cars from my understanding was originally designed for handicaps. Pls correct me if I'm wrong.
There are over a hundred threads in this forum which outlined the advantages of the manual cars over the autos. Being ignorant of the pros and cons of both cars is not an excuse for you not to be discreet in your choice of words.

What kind of foolish, stupid & silly thread is this? Poster, that you are too lazy & lack the knowledge of proper clutch application/engagement, shouldnt give you the right to regard those that know better than you do as "cursed". This thread is very irritating.

Please keep to your auto trans & shut your trap!

@Ikenna? No need to be unduly vexed. The poor guy was just stating his feelings tho his choice of word leaves much to be desired. I believe he didn't mean to insult manual transmission users hence the 'question'.

@OP whether online and in real life interactions, please learn to pick yhur words appropriately so as not to be subject to misinterpretations from readers/listeners.

Like a poster rightly said, to each his own. Whatever rocks yhur boat( or in this case moves yhur vehicle,l )use it. Cheers.

Sorry guys. I guess I overreacted. To be honest, my earlier post was a transfer aggression. A colleague upset me this morning at the office. So when when i saw this thread, I lost it. LOl grin grin grin grin

Anyway, Poster, pls next time, ask from Manual trans users like myself, what make them to be so passionate about or love manual tranny, in a polite manner and it would be explained to you. You don't have to make them angry to get true responses and explanations from them. Your post sounded so immature, as if you are a teenager. Or are you?

Re: Is It Cursed People That Drives Manual Vehicles? by GoldCircle: 2:10pm On Jan 30, 2012
Just shows how shallow minded some people are! of all words in the dictionary, the most appropriate you found was 'cursed'?? i bet the OP doesn't even own a car! Gosh!

so before rides with auto transmission became as popular as they are today, all drivers and even our parents who owned manual cars were cursed abi?? i think you need to get your head examined!!!

Re: Is It Cursed People That Drives Manual Vehicles? by purefella(m): 3:24pm On Jan 30, 2012
I can boldly say it that it's only Somatic that understand me properly , First ask yourself if that topic says Manual Vehicles Drivers are cursed people most of you that are annoyed with my post needs to buy and read a book at least A to Z common mistakes in English for beginners

I chooses that topic and use the word Curse to get what i wanted to know , grab the attention of people so that i can achieve what i wanted so many vital questions has been asked in this forum with no responses and i think you guys should have been used to it from the front cover of magazines and newspapers you read daily that the way a word is stated in the cover front doesn't mean the content of the true story rhymes with it

and finally i got what i wanted  grin grin and it doesn't mean i won't repeat the same in all of my future posts , infact it will only make me use such words more often

and finally from what i gathered i would say people sometimes like the inconvenient over the convenient and the uneasy over the easy and there are some people who enjoys things better if only they can use there own manpower to put it to work

If i get more positive replies i will appreciate it a lot and please note i am not abusing anybody
Thanks

@ Poster, you better not let Sienna see this, some people are just passionate and not caused (as in your thread). Do you know some people are just sentimental and nostalgic about things especilally electronics and autos? My old man still treasures his LP player and i hope to one day inherit it and keep the tradition ongoing.

if their z anybody on this thread that needs A to Z for beginners or whatever you called it, then it must be you.
With all the 'bolded' in your post and even the title of your thread, I must say that its a miracle the spambot has not nabbed you.
The sentence wiv the strike-through is an epic fail.

NB: This is not for the fact that I use a manual car.

The use of english language is a big problem for the poster. The moment I read his post I discovered he did not fully understand the meaning of "cursed". So, forgive him because he cannot put a simple sentence together.
Re: Is It Cursed People That Drives Manual Vehicles? by adesolar(m): 6:40pm On Jan 30, 2012

You have yet to get a grasp of pure English as the boldened part of your reply show; and you are here talking about mixing it with others. Or are you trying to force NLders to eat  adalu (beans and corn mixed with stone)? The capitalized ending to your comment above is actually meant for you.
