i agree..I see most the posts here as dissapointments and some maybe slighltly resentful/hurt as they have put hundreds, some of them thousands of hours into creating a good tech site.

Im sure with everyone putting a little time in here this tech section can be built just as good.

Everyone that gets axed is gonna voice ther .02 but Im sure a new rhythym will develop and everyone here will settle in.

Ladies and gents, I know a lot of things have happened over the past few months, I'm only just hearing about most of it and I'm glad I was pointed to this forum.

However, while many well respected members were clearly treated unfairly and we should support them, that does not give us the right to antagonize the CF. Regardless of whether you or I agree with what's happening or not, it happened. It's capitalism. It's America. Money talks, sponsers talk louder.

Posting insults and trying to see how fast we can get banned over there is not going to help. If anything, other folks over there will begin retaliating and degrade the high quality of this forum by doing the same things. Poking fun and letting people know what's going on by posting HERE is one thing, firing shots across their bow is another.

Let's face it, a lot of us cut our teeth over there, and without the CF lots of us wouldn't be here now. If we want new, quality members to join us over here we should set a good example and make this a place they want to be, not act like teenaged ricers and drop flaming bags of dogshit on their doorstep, ring the bell, and run back to C4guru.

I'm not trying to be "holier then thou" or make anyone feel guilty, just act my age for a change...

Here! Here!

just a thought.

you may want to lock it, but not delete it.

That way people know what happened.

"bogus" It is now time to start rising above the noise and becoming the tech site we CAN become.

Agreed, I am going to spend more time here and get used to this site. Is there a recent topics function on here ?

Obviously in the case of porn threads, nobody's going to complain about those disappearing asap.

That's a tough call because there are ads like that posted on billboards on public freeways.

You're talking about CF right?

Maybe they'll start getting some of those Gay phone hotline ones next, that might just ruin the browsing experience.

...I don't like the idea of the mods working in the shadows like that.

Yes, it was on corvette forum. I do understand that there are images like that on billboards and tv commercials and such, you are right there. But when they show up in a post I typed it gets hard to explain. If it is on my computer screen when the boss walks in it is hard to explain. I know for sure if I were to post that same pic I'd get a nastygram from a mod and the post would be deleted. I guess if I were to post a pic like that and advertise the underwear for sale it would be ok. I am not offended by it, but it doesn't belong in my post over there of wanting a coil wire. I don't go looking on the net for stuff like that, but if I wanted to I would go elsewhere and do it when my son isn't watching over my shoulder. If they put it in my posts, I'll come here!!! I'm here to stay.

Yep, down at the bottom of the page. It's not exactly the same as CF, but it works. Over in Web comments/suggestions, someone asked to have it moved to t he top.
