Another forum?

[PolarBear]

Now that change has come around, how bouts that computer forum? Seriously I think it would get used a lot more than the restoration section. Could be modded by the people who are more tech savvy

[ib4200]

no difference to me :shrug:

[JW]

You want to have a computer forum on a car site?

JW :D

[PolarBear]

Why not? There is a lounge and a basement and a multimedia and a restoration forum. Cars DO have computers in them and people are always askin about them and how to fix them. It is a logical next step :lol:

[LTb1ow]

Isn't this a car forum? :mrgreen:

It would be cool I suppose.

[PolarBear]

People are coming from all over to BS about BS and there is little contribution to the tech forums (relative terms) and I was told conflicting things about the "spirit of the club" i.e. F-body or car related. People are asking for help HERE for other issues, so it is not really a car forum anymore. I am thinking about the people asking for help. If there was a computer help form I may be able to help more or give my opinion more. I dont go into the tech areas all that much because I have little to contribute in them. I am on the other hand computer knowledgeable and can contribute there.
I dont always have time to look through the posts in the Lounge area and some times I see something pass that I could have helped with.

[JW]

Yea but you are referring to home computers aren't you? If so then I think it makes no sense.

The lounge is where basically all general run of the mill talk goes on. The basement is for power members, and the multimedia and a restoration sections actually apply to cars...

I would say just keep your general computer questions in the Lounge, if they are car related like PCM tuning or such then they would be posted in Engine/Power/Tuning section.

JW :D

I would say if you are that desperate to help with peoples computer problems... another computer support website might interest you more for that.

Damn you, I have been trying to get this for a while :lol: If you cant agress with me, take your opinion elsewhere :lol:

I dont have time enough for this board much less ANOTHER one, heh

[sweetbmxrider]

maybe a little computer symbol for a computer thread, easy to find!

[LTb1ow]

Why not like a "hobby" section, not just for PC help but a section more serious than the lounge but for off topic hobby help etc.

[79CamaroDiva]

I would be ok with a computer/gaming forum. Nastyz has something like that and it seems to work well.

[JW]

I am rebelling against this request! Bah!

I tend to lean towards these ideas. A bit broader.

[sweetbmxrider]

"Other Tech" or "Non-Automotive Tech" section?

And a craigs list section! :banana::kneeslap:

I'd rather a craigs list/ebay forum. Maybe one you can't reply to.

Absolutely. You and I talked of this before. :mrgreen:

[sweetbmxrider]

what, so you just post random links you fine that could turn into scams/bs? i hope you give someone power to just run wild through that section 24/7 cleaning up bs/deadlinks.

would be nice though :)

[LTb1ow]

I volunteer. I haz big banhamma.

[BonzoHansen]

Ha ha, no.

Hmm...ebay & craiglist...maybe power members only....

[WildBillyT]

No, you are a big nail, as it were.

When I see a carb sticking out of the carbon fiber hood, I'll think about a computer section... DEAL?

Otherwise, I vote no computer section.

[JW]

Can we have a weather section too... and a whatever is in the news today section... since these seem to come up a lot in the lounge....

OK I am just kidding, but at least Pampered-Z agrees with me!

JW :D

aside fromt he kidding, I wonder if theres a way to consolidate all the birthday posts. But still make it noticeable when its someones birthday. I like how they wish people with 0 activity happy birthday.

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

. I like how they wish people with 0 activity happy birthday.

That bugs me. That's why I do it only for active members, maybe throw on an inactive member if it's a regular's birthday but that's it.
