View Full Version : Proposal...
MazdaManiac 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.

Jedi54 05-12-2010, 01:04 PM so I'll get perma banned if I eventually start a "My BHR Turbo Build Thread"
damn.
wait...
that means Ray will get banned for just announcing the BHR turbo. :FIREdevil
Huey52 05-12-2010, 01:09 PM I'd like to see new "low compression" and related "warm start" threadsters banned.

We call them hairdryers around here, so no problems there.
I'd like to see new "low compression" and related "warm start" threadsters banned.
Added.
terch1 05-12-2010, 01:11 PM How about a life time ban for "what should my first mod be?" or "here is a list of my upcoming mods."
MazdaManiac 05-12-2010, 01:13 PM 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.
The Reverend 05-12-2010, 01:13 PM how about ban for trying to sell shit in the general discussion subforum

Feras 05-12-2010, 01:18 PM how about we deal with the rampant population crisis combined with the famine by eating babies...

Just about EVERY thread that starts with those words ends up being a complete train wreck.
Galen Darkmoon 05-12-2010, 02:21 PM What was the question?
SideOfBacon 05-12-2010, 02:22 PM What was the question?
doesnt matter, ban is always the answer.
all are used 05-12-2010, 02:24 PM is this the wrong thread to ask which oil I should use after installing my ebay electric turbo and performance chip on my low compression RX8 that has a CEL on and doesn't start well?
Atilla 05-12-2010, 02:29 PM is this the wrong thread to ask which oil I should use after installing my ebay electric turbo and performance chip on my low compression RX8 that has a CEL on and doesn't start well?
^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??
mysql101 05-12-2010, 02:54 PM 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?
SideOfBacon 05-12-2010, 02:59 PM depends. how recent was your grandfathers pacemaker install? they lose compression over time mysql.
Anijo 05-12-2010, 03:55 PM 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.
pdxhak 05-12-2010, 04:19 PM add these:

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?
yada yada yada
Feras 05-13-2010, 09:07 AM im disappointed that no one picked up on my Jonathan Swift reference/joke. Would it hurt you people to read a book so that we can have some class in here?
09Factor 05-13-2010, 09:53 AM So I can't ask how to make my Automatic faster?

Dude - We picked up on it.
It was corny.
Why do you think I titled the thread what I did (And left out the "modest" portion)?

I stared at that for a good 2 minutes before I accepted the fact that nothing was gonna happen!
nycgps 05-13-2010, 11:04 AM which oil should I use?
5w20 good ?
Synthetic sucks
add them.
RotaryP7 05-13-2010, 11:49 AM I guess I'm banned then.. I'm a noob.
zoom44 05-13-2010, 01:07 PM what about the people- some of whom are in this thread
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.

Where does a New Thread actually Go?:scratchhe
ShellDude 05-13-2010, 09:34 PM got another one, although officially not a word:
mpg
mscamp02 05-13-2010, 09:57 PM start swinging the ban hammer :rofl:
I'll think of something to add to the list shortly
EDIT: where do I get?
zoom44 05-13-2010, 10:51 PM 3 people in 2 days- "where do i get the mazdaspeed body kit? ive looked around and cant find where to get it."
ShellDude 05-13-2010, 10:53 PM and a couple more...
milky and dipstick
Mazda
Edit....
That would rule out 99.9% of my Threads..YEAH...nu
Flashwing 05-14-2010, 02:09 AM Has anyone listed the "My fans keep running after the car shuts off!" thread?
If not, add it!

thats out of season. we're gonna get a lot of the fan threads here pretty soon tho. along with AC that isnt cold enough. and the hot center console. etc etc. its summer
perks11 05-14-2010, 09:24 AM man im kinda dissapointed i thought you were asking us how to propose to your girl. i had some really good ideas too....
but i agree with all the mentioned thread topics above, a favorite of mine is people asking how the fitment for body kits from ebay is.
Phil's 8 05-14-2010, 12:02 PM So I can't ask how to make my Automatic faster?
yea and how do I make my automatic faster? :scratchhe

BlackRX82006 05-14-2010, 12:15 PM "Thinking about buying..."
"Is the RX8 a ____ choice?"
Ever Hernandez 05-16-2010, 12:18 AM I'm surprised no one's brought up the "Rumors on the new RX or 16X engine" The demise of the Rx8 and the Rx7 resurrection. or a cheap chop of the "next" Rx car.
DarkLord7854 05-16-2010, 02:21 PM Here's an easier solution:
Ignore the offending thread.
Bigbacon 05-16-2010, 02:37 PM you can't fix internet forums.....
Speed_8 05-16-2010, 02:47 PM how about which is better turbo or supercharger
Gr8Bullet 05-16-2010, 03:11 PM Theads at are 4+ years old and haven't had a post since deleted to make the site load and run faster....
pking1122 05-22-2010, 11:56 PM 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.

Similar to the above but people that resurrect a 4+ year old thread thinking it is current.
Also anyone who cant figure out the S1 VS S2 Sections.
AJRx892 05-23-2010, 09:43 PM how about "theres water in my tail light"

That's why I made the comprehinsive MPG thread.. To prevent noobs from opening up yet another mpg thread. I was hoping for it to get stickied for that reason
Mawnee 05-24-2010, 01:50 AM MM didnt approve of my turbo build thread? :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
imop45 05-24-2010, 05:34 PM any thread title that has a question with muliple question marks.
"What #%*$??????!!!?!?!?!!!!???!?!?!!!?!??!?!?!?!!?!?!?! ??"
grr even "??" annoys me
Highway8 05-24-2010, 06:06 PM Anything about wanting or going to get near 300HP or more without FI.
White_Shadows 05-25-2010, 07:30 AM If done what the hell would you all have to bitch about?
You would all sit there munchin your Cheetos's wondering why the fuck no ones posting anything for you to flame.
I'm just sayin.
