i have not been here that long so i guess i don't know how the fourms use to be. just so people know i will say random things at any given time. its how i break up the tention sometimes. so don't freak out when i say somthing that doesn't apply to anything. its just how i am.

Good point Ki... I noticed that all of us at one time or another have taken personal issues to the posts rather than the pm..Thats a good lesson for all to keep the posts on topic by not bringing personal problems into a thread "UNLESS" the thread was specifically designed for that purpose

I've noticed a change myself and am glad someone has come in to try and correct the problem.

its a lot like a sibling rivalry... i think the outcome is known by all... but we gotta give the underdog a chance... it will end when one of them is in the 12s they next time they go to the track.

I should paint my car Garnet, move to FLA, propose that I do a 1JZ swap, and see how many hate letters I get in my mail box from the local club members!

I think, to keep members and mods from suspecting serious conflict, that the two 'brothers' should use more smilies in their posts to reveal their true, humorous intentions

  • remember to be helpful, no smart alek comments
  • keep the jokes clean
  • practice patience
  • make "beef" comments offline
  • PM people whom you have an issue with and attempt to settle those offline
  • feel free to speak your honest opinions, but do it conscientiously
  • be friendly, be happy, and enjoy the forum and its members and knowledge!!

Just some suggestions...

Ryan
i think ryan has said it the best.

dave,
i've been on a personal mission to be more of a MEMBER & contribute by posting replies to tech problems. in the past i would refrain for fear of being flamed if i got on the wrong track. i've been doing this a long, long time & i wanted to pass on some theory's & info. as you well know its difficult to diagnose in this manner. a lot of info gets lost in the time between the car & the screen before your face. so dont bash, we are all here to help each other.

i'd like to see something implimented for all these open/unresolved repair threads. theres nothing worse than reading a 8 page thread w/ no ending. i cant beleave theres 10,000 cars riding around w/ noises, leaks, etc. since everyone should be searching before posting a new question, we need to make their search worth while. i considered doing a year end bump to all the threads i'm subscribed to that are still open, but that could get really annoying to others.

just a thought
john

Post great topic!

the kind community is what really keeps me so interested in this forum.... and the fact that the moderators are so responsive is freakin amazing, i still haven't gotten a response from the dsm forum....it's been a year... anyways, i agree with the above post that it is annoying having the same ? asked over and over again, but one thing i did like about the dsm forum, that they changed to because it wasn't originally like this, is similar to what the moderator said in the beg.
+be respectful
+if you don't have an answer or don't have a nice response...don't post.

lol like when i posted about emeralds sc in the modified a few weeks ago.... someone simply said that i was a month too late... very painless and not rude in any way... and it was shortly closed after that... that kind of respect and attentiveness, from both the mod and community, is what this forum is about! i haven't been here too long so i know i can't say much but i really do like this forum and would hate to see it go downhill!! KEEP IT UP GUYS!!!
