Trolling For Dollars- How Not to Sell Your Porsche 924

By Robert Emslie Jun 7, 2010

Over on the 924Board, a new member has been trying to unload his Porsche, and has taken issue with the fact that no one there wants to buy it. Instead of trying a different venue, he’s decided to unleash his inner troll. The responses from responding board members are awesome.

Supercharger throws out the first volley calling everyone there (in bold uppercase so you know he’s royally peeved) BOCAMF. Now, for those of you not up to speed on the latest Internet memes, that apparently means Bunch Of Cheap-Ass Mother F*****s. Sadly for the Sup-ster, nobody on the board is that savvy, and hence he gets a lot of WTF? responses.

The discussion devolves into queries about a horse for sale and how many hands high it is, and eventually clowns – or ass-clowns to be precise – until Supercharger finally explains the reason for his ire –

To which fiat22turbo succinctly responds THAT’S BECAUSE WE ALL HAVE 924s ALREADY!

Supercharger finally leaves the conversation, and it may not of been his idea to do so. The 924Board members did gain something from this exchange – a new unofficial board slogan – BOCAMF.

Just goes to show, every rose has its thorn, and every troll sings a sad, sad song.

Check out the whole shootin’ match here.

  1. Awesome.
    There's a kid (he's like 17) over on Bimmerforums who vacillates between posts like "Need to sell my car ASAP" and "What [insert multi-thousand dollar upgrade] should I buy?". The best part being on the "need to sell" posts, he never puts a price on his poorly running 3-speed auto 1978 BMW, that he's gone out of his way to make clear is owned by someone who's done nothing good for it. He seemed somewhat miffed when I offered him $800 for it (his only offer).

  2. Funny how board slogans can arise… This tale reminds me of a certain site that was lambasted via e-mail for its poor "cotomer sevis"…

    1. That's some vintage Jalopnik, right there.
      Another guy just hit me up on Flickr for Renault parts. I guess he saw my shots of Jack's place and assumed the collection was mine.

      1. So are you shipping those parts or what?! My car has been torn down in the garage for a week and we're starting to run out of beer. If you aren't going to ship the damn parts, at least send more beer.
        /u have no good cotomer sevis!

      2. I get all kinds of comments on my Flickr Cruise Night pics asking if I have parts for some car or another that I photographed on the street. I wonder if they think I own all of them?

  3. Great… I can't even read "racingjunk.com" in passing without wandering over there and saying goodbye to two hours of my productivity. Thanks…

    1. Ha! Had I known it was a faithful Hoon responsible, I wouldn’t have posted it. Good luck with the 924!

  4. BOCAMF is serious guys! I knew a guy who had a cousin whos girlfriend had it. She had to go to some specialist in Guam. She died a month later. Not because of BOCAMF, but trichinosis she picked up in Guam. Sad.

  5. One thing that I find the most helpful is number five. Sometimes when I write, I just let the flow of the words and information come out so much that I loose the purpose. It’s only after editing when I realize what I’ve done. There’s defiantly a lot of great tips here I’m going to try to be more aware of.
