View Full Version : Proposal...

05-12-2010, 01:00 PM
I suggest that any member of the forum who has been here less than 3 months receive a 7-day ban and any member that has been here longer than 3 months* receive a perma-ban for starting a new thread containing any of the following words in the title:

Performance Chip
O2 Fooler
Ram air
Turbo
CAT-delete
Resistor
Check Engine Light
Flooding
Warm Start
Compression
Engine Coolant Level Warning Light
Synthetic
CAT
350Z

More words to be added as I remember them.













































































*Except NMO, who will immediately open a series of threads with these titles or some approximation of these titles purely for the purpose of being a worthless turd.

damn.

We call them hairdryers around here, so no problems there.

How about a life time ban for "what should my first mod be?" or "here is a list of my upcoming mods."

Really, anyone that posts threads of what they are "gonna do" instead of what they "have done" should be swatted.

^that depends - did you have any issues regarding the O2 Fooler? When was the last time it flooded?? Have you started a thread regarding warm start up's??

Which would be faster in a race, my grandmother's 1984 toyota corolla or my rx8? what if I was wearing spandex and my grandma had arthritis? what if my grandmother was slightly drunk and I was wearing infrared goggles? How about if I had racing slicks and launched from 8000 rpm?

I agree with this proposal 100% if we can get the forum's search button powered by Google. Most of the good threads on these subjects are massive by now and it can take quite a lot of time to sort through the wall of 1 sentence or less replies to get to the good ones.

ANYthing to do with oil.

What oil should I use?

I know you all said syntheic is good but my friend's brother's sisters's buddy has a dad who fought in Vietnam with this guy who heard on the radio that a tech at Mazda says it's BAD threads.

Anyone who makes another oil thread should be awarded with a free donkey punch to the gonads.

Should I premix?

Why do you think I titled the thread what I did (And left out the "modest" portion)?

http://i.imgur.com/7GCUd.gifthat's right he's looking at you (im still convinced that's going to do something eventually. jump out or shout something.

who are going into the "help diagnose my problem" threads and answering without a clue as to whats wrong and without asking any pertinent questions? they seem to be intent on parroting stuff they've read on here somewhere but apparently can't be bothered to parrot stuff from the people who are most often right. they seem intent on parroting WRONG info.

How about an FAQ sticky w/ alphabetical links? I know mechanical genius' hate answering the same n00b questions every time a new guys asks a question, but this would help. Or even, a n00b thread with 'things you should know', or 'RX-8s 4 dummies'. Anytime someone asks a question that has been addressed in the existence of the forum, the n00b gets torn a new asshole, which doesn't exactly encourage people to stick around. Of course we have 'search', but lets be honest, its far from the best, and is barely usable.

Perfect example, I typed what is premix in search, and got nothing that answers my question. If I ask, I'll be made to feel like an asshole. First time rotary owners, or people who are generally green should be able to come to this forum and get the answers they need. I'm not against the proposal, but if I may speak for the n00bs, meet us half way.
