Suggestions for "New Members"
Would there be any way to get these threads sent to the in-box of every person who signs up for an account? At the very least, the New and Potential Owners one should be made a sticky in EVERY forum/ sub-forum. Just a suggestion
New and Potential Owner’s, Start Here https://www.rx8club.com/new-member-forum-197/new-potential-owners-start-here-202454/
Congratulations, you got an 8 https://www.rx8club.com/new-member-forum-197/congratulations-you-got-8-a-202548/

But, I think that if I saw something in big bold letters saying "New and Potential Owners Start Here" I would have read it!
Luckily, I just kept my mouth shut and continued reading until I learned the ways on my own
Or, maybe a set up like 7club? Must have certain post count to start threads, a forum for new members, etc?

That's a very common setting. I'm surprised it's not used here. Hell, I wasn't even allowed to reply to a thread in the regional forum on 7club without a post count of 3 (which was kinda weird).

Well, I think the post limit for creating new threads is justified, but anything else would just be a pain. I created an account on rx7club to reply in one of the local threads about a meet I want to go to, but it wouldn't let me unless I had more than X posts. I don't really like that. But for new threads, hell yes!

Nah, threads like yours get started every day. That is the problem. We are all here to help but answering the same questions daily just because people are too lazy to search just gets old. Not to mention the questions that get asked that cannot be answered like "what is the best exhaust for my car?", etc.

I have a better idea. Why dont you guys delete some of the old threads that aren't worth a sh-t anyway? That way, when a "noob" tries to search he doesn't come across a week worth of reading. That's why you guys keep getting the same questions.
Maybe re-vamp the search feature so you get better hits when you are searching for something specific. Maybe it isn't the newbies fault??
If you make someone who doesn't know jack about the 8 wait until they have enough posts won't that just create MORE worthless posts?????
