:flame: First off this is a rant because I got really ticked...So read on if your interested.
I was looking at a forum today and they list the banned threads for everyone to see. I felt like I was in a crazy house. The threads that they close are retarded. I mean in a stupid way. The threads were serious questions or topics but the rules they have are so retarded that they were closed. One topic was closed because the guy had a capital letter to start each word example...
"I Was Going To Go To The Store But I Changed My Mind" not exact quote just showing caps thing.
Another thread was closed after a guy listed all his mods and asked a question related to what fuel issue he was having and how much possible Hp might be gained by fixing it. IT WAS CLOSED FOR "Bench Racing!" How retarded can a forum get, There is a big difference between "bench racing" and asking a question related to a rich fuel issue and if it was worth fixing for some extra hp!
I'm glad this place isn't run that way or I would have to ban myself.
I read about 20 more closed topics and realized how badly moderated that site was. I felt I should join and post about how angry I was with the way they were modding the site, But I would've been banned for giving my opinion.
Here is two of their rules.
"No Guessing - if you don't know the answer for sure, don't reply - we don't need you spreading misinformation. If your reply contains phrases like "I think", or "I've heard", or "everyone else does it", or "my brother's uncle's friend did it and had no problems" - IT IS NOT USEFUL- only post a reply if YOU know the answer from YOUR own first-hand experience. Instead of replying with a guess, post a link to a thread where the answer can be found, or the same discussion already took place. "
"Do not post info found in our forums on other website forums."
^^^^ oops' good thing I didn't join or I would've been banned!:waiting:
The point of a forum is to share information! What good does that do if you can't share the wealth?????
:attention:
