Complaining about being tired of hearing about Corvette waves is rather like doing your part to kill the wave. If people don't want to hear about it, they shouldn't open the darn thread. If people don't want to wave, don't wave. But quit slamming the people who want to talk about it. Just move on to something you are interested in.

I completely agree. However, I am a new member who has been lurking on this forum for a year and a half (my old name was HARD DRIVER, didn't post much, I had a TT 3000GT VR4, 400hp), so I am not as tired of the subject as other members, us newer members haven't got waved out yet, so let us have our fun.
If you don't like wave threads, don't open em up and complain about them, it is as childish as the threads were people are mad because someone didn't wave. Some of us think the wave is a noble, genteel pursuit that has a little bit of the good ole days magic in it. Please don't spoil it for the rest of us.

Haha Pure Fun, it's not about the wave (how many times and ways can you talk about the wave, it's the circumstances surrounding the wave, the diss, or the bliss, of another acknowledging a shared fun), but about the negativity that is just unneccesary in another's thread.
I am also tired of preaching. I am not the Captain of the Wave Club. I just want the good Vette good will to continue and be extended to us newer members who aren't really tired of the wave (I have seen a million threads in the year and change I have been here, but so what, its important to that person and I would think we are just making members uncomfortable with actually posting) and don't mind seeing people be happy, however small or insignificant that happiness be.
Nuff on this, I just finished washing and armor-alling the inside of my black 02. I am gettin my windows tinted this weekend, by my brother in law, and he's goooooddd.

Oh i waved at three vettes today. Two C6's and one C5 and not one returned wave
Didn't bother me in the least though. Maybe i will start a new thread about it this one is getting old Will have to admit it is something special when another vette owner acknowledges the tradition.
