Hello everyone, I guess it's time I made my way over here as well. Once all of my trusted CF compadres got banned I had to follow so I could continue to absorb their knowledge. I'll still be freuquenting the big house as many of my racing peeps drive C5's and C6's, but I guess this is the new place for tech info.
I changed the name because "scaryfast" is pretty cheesy, but hey, 7 years ago when I picked it I didn't know any better; I still said things like "dope" and "rad". But since I went "pro" two years ago I have to represent the team...so all my forums since then use this name. So...any chance we're going to add a racing forum?  |

I've always thought Scaryfast was a good name. But welcome over by any handle. I think a racing section is a great idea too.  |

Welcome, I'm not a real big fan of having seperate forums for each topic area, it sort of spreads the site out and some people will never see those threads.
What I think would be ideal, is to still have subforums for when you're in the mood for a certain subject, but then be able to view all the C4 threads on one page. Then people will stumble across threads they otherwise never would have seen. I'd like to think some noob could inadvertently stumble across a roadracing thread and then it peaks his/her interest. This is especially important on a smaller forum, where those subforums could become a ghosttown otherwise. Even would-be regular users won't go in there if they aren't getting participation from others. |

that's a good idea, Kevin... we can talk about how to structure the forum sections better to serve everyone.
Then again, the software is limited. I want to upgrade... need to do research. |

I guess I haven't been here long enough (well, almost an hour, now) to consider that. Makes sense, though. Ok, no changes yet.
What's the right forum for such topics? It's not really "technical." So...C4 chat? |

One thing I really hated about CF was the for sale section, it's so counterproductive.
Have you seen the for sale section on DC? It's foolproof and almost moderates itself. I wonder what Mojo's take would be on that since he put so much work into the broken f/s section on CF. Probably not a big priority now, there are bigger fish to fry here, but something to consider when you're looking at other software. |

And isn't status "guru newb" kind of an oymoron? I know the guru part is in reference to the forum name, but... :tongue5:

Think of it as guru school, you're a guru in training as it were....  I've been here over two years and I'm still a newb. But since I'm posting regularly now, it'll go away soon enough. :sign12:  What are these BTW? Sperm cells or tadpoles?  |

They look like depressed sperm to me. Probably from banging a fat chick and aren't excited about seeing her from the inside.  |

yeah, add that to my list of unwarranted comments. A small "smiley" adjustment. We need one that portrays sarcasm on the main post, over there to the left when posting a reply.
Most of my comments will cause me to lose friends unless I can add that big grinning smiley to them - this guy, but not spinning:  Maybe the afro guy will be the new "I'm just screwing with you" smiley... As for the sperm, why is there a pink one? chixwithdix??? |

And one last question (for now, anyway) - how do i get the posts to resize to my screen? I can't get them to fit and have to scroll back and forth with the slider on the bottom.
Sorry...I'm an idiot. |

I can shrink my window pretty far without having to scroll. What is your resolution? It seems like even 800x600 would be fine.
Some threads get stretched when someone posts a wide photo, but otherwise it shouldn't happen. |

I'm at 1024x768 (laptop). Perhaps it's just the pic threads.
So much for uploading all my porn into off topic. |
