One way or the other, Im going to hide the Political Forum once the change is made. There are other ways I could have done it but its a HUGE PITA. If I cant come up with anything more elegant with Xenforo, Ill do it the same way I coulda done it here. Its just going to take a lot of reconfiguring which is why Ive avoided it here.

I don't understand. Is it that bothersome for some people to see the words "Political Section" that it has to be removed or put somewhere else?
Also, is there some kind of prize for having the most posts?
These two topics sound like a waste of time in bettering the board!
Maybe I'm missing something here but I just don't see a big deal, just nonsense.

That's the key right there. Bettering the board. While it may increase traffic to the board, so would a porn section. But do you want that on here either?:biggrin:
HMMmmm. Are you giving me the option?

Not arguing here Dave, but that's what we're trying to figure out. We also have guys buying parts, sitting on them for a few months, and then re-selling them at inflated prices to make a profit. This isn't a witch hunt so don't get that idea please. What it is, is an attempt to reduce the number of guys that are making part of their living on the board as well as reducing scammers like Justin Gunn and others. If Turbo TJT had bought that many parts he probibly has enough to build a car from spare parts right now though. After all less than 1% of his posts (actually .001%) are in other areas? I don't care who you are, even bison isn't that good and either answers questions or sometimes asks them.
I guarantee Tim has bought more parts on this forum than he has sold. I actually would bet his selling to bought ratio is 20:1 or more. He's a god guy and a good board member so please dont use him as an example.
We're still trying to figure out who's doing what Jeremy. Not looking for scapegoats but looking for those that are not paying for free advertising that they're getting not to mention basically free money.
I think a good idea would be to limit the amount of threads that can be "STARTED" from each member per month. That would also keep people from posting 20 threads with one thing for sale in each thread. Make one big list and let people sort through it, thats whhat I usually do when it's time to clean shop.

Yeah I understand. Just sticking up for Tim because his name was brought up. He's a good dude! Another thing to consider is PM traffic. I know I dont care to post much in the Brakes/Suspension section anymore but I bet I personally get 20+ PM from people needing help. And I also get plenty of PMs from people who dont really like to post publicly. I've sold my fare share of left overs on the for sale section so I cant say much but I will say it gets old seeing the same people selling parts everytime I go to the For Sale section. I usually end up schrolling to the second or third page. I think a good idea would be to limit the amount of threads that can be "STARTED" from each member per month.

x2 !the same should happen to all political forum posts. They are of zero use to the hobby.
