Petition to add a forum section under General entitled "Build Threads"

[K'netic]

I think it would be really useful to have a section of the forum devoted strictly to build threads.

I've found that a lot of really cool build threads get lost here in the "Chat" section and don't seem to get the attention they deserve.

Anybody else agree?


Either way, just thought I'd throw the idea out there and see what you guys think.

I figure you could make some rules like "Only start threads of YOUR builds, not YOUR FRIENDS' build" and set up some nomenclature for the thread titles like:

Location, year, model, motor, build purpose, special comment --- Or something like that.

So mine would be titled:

MO 1997 240SX RB25 Street/Drift S14.5 RHD Conversion

and

MO 1991 Civic Wagon K24 Daily Driver RT4WD

i don't see this happening cause sum peoples ideas of a build is only exhaust,wheels and coilovers other then that there is only like 5 completed builds on this on this site

I haven't posted up my build thread on zilvia because it does not have it's own section for it.

Nothing to be excited over though, I personally think my cars are boring anyways. and never finished.

That is true, but I think a lot of people give up on their build threads (or don't start one in the first place) because they think no one will see it. Let's face it. if you post the beginnings of a build thread in the Chat section on a "mildly" busy day on the forum it'll could be on page 3 within a few hours and unless you endlessly bump it up, it'll never be seen or heard from again.

I also think a section devoted to build threads might be enough to motivate people to make one for their car and update it more frequently than they normally would as things are now.

[K'netic]

^^^ LOL.

I think that none of us would ever consider our cars to be "finished" but that's the genius of having a build thread, you can keep updating it whenever you do something new.

There is a forum for build threads.
