+1 videos are annoying as hell, I mean if I wanted to watch a fucking 3 year old fucking video "youtube" is no fucking secrete, and don't get me wrong if a member post a video every now then that's new or car related I don't mind even if it was posted before but when you have someone create 3+ threads every day it's just a stupid call for attention.

I think the mods or owner been working on it lately, but I also think new mods need to be recruited for the one's that no longer have the time for the site due to family jobs or other things.

I totally agree. I think to eliminate that, is to have a PHOTO and VIDEO section forum.

I think the for sale section has really turned to shits latly I don't think people should sell stock parts unless some one post that they need it, theirs too many posting with people selling junk trying to get rich.

I thought of that, but what if you get in a great discussion and then you hit your cap. I doubt they have an option for "THREAD STARTER" though too.

No kidding. I have checked /lurked or posted this board almost everyday since the 98cobra.com days. Down hill lately for sure. This board goes up and down so we will see.... Hope it comes back a bit to how it was. ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

I think it would help if
1. The General section was turned into a General Car section.
2. The street racing section turned into an offtopic section.
3. Sales should be combined into one post. Multiple posts will be deleted. Continuing to break the rules results in a vacation. (It's like that for all the hardware related sites.) And they sell a lot of stuff and put it all in one post and its fine.
4. Feedback section or use a third party feedback system like heatware which we could leave feedback. The major hardware forums which have 500k+ members use this system and it works great.
5. Active moderators.

+1 in order for this to work, you have to put rules in place and available to all, you break the rules = suspension for first offense, lack of disrespect for others or non sense crap = ban

funny they know who they are an seems that no one above 2004 really comenting on this.
good to see the oldies are still floating around the boards. i know i'm just 4yrs old on this site but been watching it get torn in everyway. I appreciate what the mods have been doing lately thanx again

I still dont understand why grown men bicker and complain like women.
1.Every thread has a title. You can pic and choose which one to read.
2.If you want a forum with only your friends try www.myspace.com.
3.No one is being disrespected by the for sale and vid. posts.
4.Fox bodys are 15+ years old some people would rather buy the small parts rather than go to pic n pull.
This small group of people dont make cafords, and by all means if its not worth comming to the site anymore dont come. Dont push your your negative attitude on us, we dont need it!!! Take your bad attitude to 1320!!!!!

John I agree to some degree. And yes every last nut and bolt doesn't need its own thread. However if someone is looking for something specific its ALOT easier seeing it in the title makes it much easier to find...As I said before I don't usually a post with a ton of parts, and alot of others don't as well.
An option:
I am a fan for closing a thread or deleting a post if something has been sold,(maybe not the ORIGINAL post,but all the after posts in a thread)
General talk has turned into a joke and who the fukk are the majority of the new people, does ANYONE even know them??? I know you have to start out at some point but these guys are talking shit to long standing members, turning classified and tech posts into bs, kinda weird
One more idea I nominate John/Blown67 as a moderator, he lives here anyhow and has something every few months or so to say, hell give him the power!!!!

Thats quite an interesting thought there. But id have to say its 50/50 on people needing or selling stock and performance parts. Not everyone is into aftermarket/performance parts.
