Ok, the post whoring is starting to get a bit out of hand. It takes up bandwith so that people trying to get information, or post legit topics have to wait.

Please try to keep threads on topic.

It's still getting to be a pain sifting through on-topic posts and off topic posts.

Would like the definition/example of whoring please.
Nismos14: This forum is packed most of the night how can you say no one is on (I never see you when there are only 3 people logged on during my lunch hour)

Actually, it's 240sx chat. It's supposed to be chat about the 240sx, IE: what good mods are, timeslips, etc.

After looking at the front page, i find you are indeed correct.

But it does say "general" and general could be interpreted loosely.

listen up kiddies.........if you wanna talk about random crap, do it in some aol chat room. not here. if you have a need to share certain aspects of you're life, go talk to your mom, because frankly, i don't care.

an off topic forum on another server maybe. if we had it on here, it would still slow things down. i must admit, this board is much faster, even with the added BS.

seriously, i don't think we need an off topic section. there's a zilvia chat everyday on AIM w/ like 10 ppl or so. so there's plenty of time to be off topic in the chat room if u want. no need for it on the site....not at the time at least IMO.

I think some Off Topic stuff is nice, but it can get out of hand. It would be nice to have an Off Topic section, but that requires bandwidth, and that means Money. So, what ever happened to WeST's idea of selling stuff to raise money? Shirts, Stickers, etc... I think if that gets organized correctly it will work nicely. Just need to get them designed. Anyone have any artistic skillz?! &nbsp;Transient? your an artist of some sort right? Make some damn shirts boy! &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crazy.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':crazy:'> &nbsp;j/k <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':cool:'> &nbsp;But I think we should get this Idea up and running.

A section for off topic could be great if you could have they threads only last three days and then be deleted(rather than archiving B.S. &nbsp; <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'> &nbsp; If something relavent comes up in the thread then soeone can contact a MOD and they can archive it under chat for future reference, other wise it is just removed inorder to save bandwidth?

I will still be starting to sell stuff for Zilvia.net. I still havent decided what to sell, but thats ok for now.

On the side note, to raise money for servers, connections, events, etc. I will be selling ad space on the main site and one logo on the forum that will be on the top right by the Zilvia.net Forums image. It wont be annoying so dont worry.

I am done with getting my LLC setup. My company name is Syndicate Studio and im done registering the company and me and Josh Van Hook are going to start working on redesigning the site and then we will go after potential shops for ad space on the site. So once all this is going we will start to have some revenue so we can order stickers or whatever else you guys might want.

It will all start happening within the the few months.
