Okay we need one Forum about Ranting.... The my guess would be someone who got a 240 about 2 weeks ago (or is planning on getting one) will post a topic about how crappy hondas are or how people only talk about hondas (when they are in essence talking about Honda by making the post)...And then a bunch of the same typa people will reply and feel real smart for putting down Honda.

Another one could be ebay items... People could post all sorts of electronic forced induction and contraptions you put in your intake pipe that are super devices... And then people can reply like "No, it's not worth it!"...

Another one could be about Drifting cuz well.. the obvious...

I dont know I just thought that would be cool.... I'm not sure how many forums Ikonboard allows or how it all works but I think it would make the place run alot more efficiently...

====================================
edit: oh yeah and one for new folk to introduce themselves... or old folk to properly introduce themselves because they didnt when they were new

I think the best Idea would be a "Vote to Delete" button.  Say a topic gets 10 or 15 votes it gets deleted.  It works great on TwinTurbo.net and I think it would work great here because I see people asking the mods to lock some of the posts or just flat out delete them.

Just my .21 cents

Can we use the "Report this post to Moderator" button or does that not work?

more ranting, more ebay items and drifting posts. if those sections get made, i'm outta here. not that i'm important that anyone would care, but those are three things i do not look forward to when checking out the board. no offense.

Its called the chat section for a reason.... chat=bullshit no really info/no other forums for me to talk on.
If you dont like that then dont read them... if you see a topic that excits you or you think will piss you off then dont read them. Is it possible that those lame ass topics are wasting space? hell ya but what else would waste away your day.... oooo you have something else?<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> then again dont read the damn thread.
There are a lot of people on zilvia that have been here longer then I have and have all read this kind of post before and are tired of it.. so deal with it or stick to FA which is less of a community(no jokes and funnies) but hardcore technical.

lol thank you badmojo
well sil80 you 300zx hatin freak. there is a reason why i personally wouldn't want those sections. because this board is very slow. more BS posts just slow the board down even more. and it will only get worse. that's my only reason. if the server were faster, then bring on the electric supercharger posts.

Hmm.. Im guessing this is aimed at me. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hmmm.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hmmm:'>

I would reply to this, but oh yeh thats right, then we would have to open another forum about people who post theads directed at members for the purpose of starting arguments... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/butbut.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':but:'>

Not just you... it's just a bit ironic about how someone rants about Honda being the only topic racers talk about... when you were only talking about Honda... &nbsp;But yeah you werent the one putting down Honda, there are others. And I'm not sure you have posted any ebay items yet....

And James... I dont think it would slow the server down would it? Aren't each forum seperate... It would just redirect the ebay posts and such so the chat would go faster... oh well... just a suggestion....

ironic? and someone who post a topic, ranting on and on against ranting isnt? &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/eh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':eh:'>

Anywayz. Im done with this. Next time I post something it will actually have something to do with the 240sx.

And nah, I havent posted any e-bay items as of yet but that revolutionary electric turbo kit sure looks tempting. hmm.. I wonder does anyone else know about its wonders. &nbsp; <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sigh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':rolleyes:'>
Maybe that delete button isnt such a bad idea after all..
