    Exclamation Important Message for Newcomers

    Hello Everyone,

    I'm a newcomer myself. But, I don't post SPAM on here just to get my post count up. Please research the topic and then participate in the forum. It's not guys...

    I'm requesting to administrators to ban people who post SPAM and delete their posts. I would gladly do it myself if you give me the authority. I like this forum and learn alot each day from it.

    Good point! There is a ton of useful information on here. In fact, almost all of it can be found by simply using the Search button and really not having a need to post at all...

    But if you don't get your post count up, you can't see all the really cool install pictures people have posted or the cool concealed display mod that Reb did.

    I don't have a problem if they want to limit what I can upload or hyper-link to, but I would really like to be able to see the pictures people had posted that I used to be able to view. JMO.

    It's a pain to not be able to view the install images without the post count requirement. I guess the mods impose it to keep the forum active. Although I think there is enough activity here that they could survive.

    This section is great for newcomers to introduce them selves. Everyone needs to pay there dues and the post limit for assess is a great idea. It takes time to absorb all the information here and the post count will help new comers allot in this way. I know quite a few people here that this feature would of helped allot.

    Some tips on how to get your post count up in a educational and fun way:

    1- Click on the new posts button and participate with good questions and opinions.

    2- Use the search button to find information your interested in and ask questions.

    3- Find someone you can antagonize and start a constructive argument.

    More importantly, I wish that the new members would start a new thread when they have any questions which are somewhat off-topic relative to whatever thread they currently are viewing. This way off-topic questions don't clutter up threads about other topics, and new member questions will be more visible for all of us to answer. And before anyone starts replying to new member questions with stuff like "Use the search button. It is your friend.", keep in mind that I frequently have trouble searching for old threads which I posted myself! Its all good. I love having a bunch of new forum members. It is spicing up the forum in a very good way.

    X2, I agree 1000%.

    I hate the search button, I actually make notes about good threads so its easer to reference them.

    I can't search anything worth a sh!+. I think getting good results from quick searches is a personal skill like drawing or something.

    Anyways, I don't get pi$$ed when people ask the same questions. I keep a word doc with most of my regular responses ready for turn key opinions like "What's the best radar detector" and stuff like that.
