it's totally amusing, no one's getting excited, I'm rolling in it. Maybe Beer Mod is a rocket scientist for NASA; think it's lame that he wants to let it be know right from the start that he's a dick to new users.
where's auto4crossr? hey are you out of school for the summer? shouldn't you be doing your summer reading? when's cheerleading practice start?

i haven't posted much on the A4 forum for a while now for the same reason as arif, it's just not worth it to search through a bunch of BS just to answer questions that have been asked a million times before...not to mention you're making it harder for GOOD newbs to search for good info when you make a million threads on the same subject, only 1/4 of which have actual answers...nobody's saying that the questions you ask are stupid, we're just saying that the info is already on the forum and doesn't need to be asked again.

First off I agree the Search button should be in bold. Second before completing the membership sign up they should be given a list of commonly asked questions and be directed toward the search function. If they know it’s in the forum from the beginning they won’t unknowingly ask a repeated question, thus flooding the forum. As for bamvant :

that's right boys and girls, show your rich bitch attitudes toward the little noob. let's all jump in on the noob. hey is there an audi get together somewhere this weekend where we can all get together and wax each other's wood, I mean cars? Then we'll take pictures together with our frosted tips and wet-look hair leaning up against or opened hoods.
I'm sure your dad's can eat more ice cream and caviar than mine.

What a bunch of worthless dirt bags.
Your stereotyping attitude only accentuates your ignorance. Not everyone with an Audi is fed with a golden spoon. I and many others work themselves to the bone for what they have. I grew up with nothing which drives me to provide for myself and my future family because I don’t want them to live the way I had to. So now that you have your new membership, why don’t you try to use it productively instead of acting like the prepubescent you claim others to be?


P.S. My father can eat more Ramen and drink more Keystone and Coors than yours.

Can't we all just get along?? Instead of waxing eachothers wood or cars you should get together and put the gloves on and knock eachother out.

About the noob problem (i'm a noob)...I only have a few posts but i just bought my car 3 weeks ago..still haven't posted pics but i search here and the zine to find answers because its quicker than waiting for a reply to a question asked 200 times.

Maybe you can make a 30 post requirement before people can create new topics. I've seen that on different forums and it seems to work. Also this may take some time but if some1 cleaned up the threads and deleted the ones that had 2 replys saying use the search that would make searching easier.

Yep the zine is where a lot of knowledge stems from. Seems like evvveryone is BT over there, and they have the knowledge to back it up. Cleaner forum, more mature members, etc. Still I only have approx 120 posts there and almost 1800 here.

The 30 post requirement may promote PWing tho.
