Fark I'm getting old, and I'm sore after doing a 2 car coil-over, sway bar, and wheel conversion last night.

Let me know when you get here.
How about we all just stay as we are and if we are still here after 1000 posts or so give out titles.
Do we really need this "us and them" thing happening here.

Yes...

Maybe...

Probably not...

I'd like something to include the following words: Falcon punch Sperm Exploding labia Flaming homosexual Dylan Golly, those last 2 really are made for each other.

Imagine the combination of story's you could come up with using just those 5 lines. Discuss...

Gayest thread yet.. Can I not be a 'Member?'

[Soop]

Great way to divide people! As someone said, it'll just cause the "Us and them" bullshit that we tried to escape no? I say forget it. My 2.0c

Soop is right. User titles can cause issues between members sometimes. But.... i do think that the "founding" members should be recognised in some way as they are the ppl that created what we have here. I'm not against having something under the Avatar stating the fact that the member was one of the first. If that makes sense

[Soop]

How about we get the forum to some respectable degree prior to handing out these titles? I mean, ffs EVERY member is a founding member at this point. Lets see who's left in 12months - 2 years and then give them some recognition.

Agreed......although it is still hard to justify giving a title to someone that joined on day one and never contributed for a year and then shows up expecting the red carpet.

It will be hard to give "special" titles out at any time for any reason as the ppl that miss out will wonder why they don't deserve it.

I already know I'm "special" so I'm happy even if I dont get a special title

[twinturbosubaru]

Listen guys, let's not get hung up on silly titles, you haven't heard the actual people who built this thing clanging about titles have you ??? Let's concentrate on talk about cars, amazingly enough that's why this board was built.... Titles, logos, groups, and fancy words can all come later, let's focus on the site design and functionality before anybody goes and pats themselves on the back, I for one want to see a site that works as a discussion forum about Subarus, anything else that happens to happen is a bonus :-) Enjoy Paul

[Soop]

^^^ Exactly!

[Dylan]

Yeah, agreed. I think anyone that truly gets hung up on group titles need not bother - ultimately we are all here for the same reason and it should all be one happy loving (gay) family. Hell, incest is a game the entire family can play.

Wasn't this forum created to steer away from useless threads and all the politics that OZlib had? In the first 2 weeks it was great. Soop worked alot on putting quality information and tech posts up which included DIY's that are very valuable to the community. Wheres the rest? we cant only survive on the stuff we extracted from ozliberty and other forums. lets go out and create our own tests. Go out and learn the hard way. No ones learns by just reading what people tell them. you have to do it your self. trial and error. dont be afraid to get your hand dirty. find out why that car isnt turning over, check what you think could be the problem. from there ask a friend who may have an idea. Then once you have no other options, you should post a thread on the forum to get answers from the tech guys. this will stop alot of useless threads and reduce people repeating them selfs. PM the thread starter if its an old thread instead of reviving it. its all thse small things that will stand this forum out from the rest.

[Soop]

F*cken bang on Jovi. That's exactly the attitude the forums need. People need to explore things and tinker and find out the results. Instead of taking a bunch of hearsay (Disregarding valid sources) and making a decision based upon it. Were the forum comes into its own, is when people can run idea's by others to insure their idea/thought pattern is correct and if it's not, what is in fact the correct way to go about it. When you have a bunch of morons congregating in one place, you end up with moronic idea's and information. I say save the special wanker titles for those that earn them, by doing more than simply joining up first. No good being #10 and never posting or contributing. Quality > quantity.

I've seen some forums (havent got an example off-hand) where users can give other users ratings and it shows up every time they post, sort of like a reputation scale decided by other members. Just an idea?
