It seems this website has gone down hill quite considerably since ownership has changed hands.
There has also been many topics and threads deleted, without an explanation why. It seems moderators and admin are simply deleting the the topics they don't approve of (or personally don't agree with), and just leave it at that.
We can all see this website has more then it's fair share of sh1t talking, but don't you think it'd be more effective to try and resolve these issues, rather then just delete them and forget about it? ..I hope you admin don't apply the same theory to things in life as well..
There will always be a certain amount sh1t talking regardless what you do, but maybe if admin take a different approach to how they moderate it, there will be less sh1t talking, and more discussion on topics that are worthwhile reading.
Simply deleting a thread that is a little heated, or off topic, isn't going to fix anything. It's just a cowards way out.

Putting it simply, the "VL Turbo Discussion" section is for VLT or similar discussions. You want to sit and argue, and talk about "crap".. become a member.. thats what the members lounge is for.
If a thread is going no-where it will be locked. If their is offensive posts in it, it will be deleted. You want the rules to change.. buy your own forum.
Their are certain users who only reply to topics that are "off topic", and havn't given 1 bit of usefull information. I'm not pointing the finger at anyone, but this forum is not for that. It's a vl/car forum. And again if you want to go off topic, become a member.

But it's not, and never will be. Besides it wouldn't stop under 18's getting on. And sometimes some of the younger members have a few good points to add to discussions and ask a few good questions.
Putting this very simply, and i hope i don't hurt anyones feelings... Get over it.

1. I'm not supporting the topics that talk about sh1t. My point is that, simply deleting a topic isn't going to fix anything ...What do you base this rule on, "out of sight, out of mind?" The problem will just keep recurring until the overall environment around this place changes.
2. You say it's a VL/CAR forum (VL's & Car's in general(?)) - The only car you can talk about around here is the VL. If you mention any other car, all the little kiddies start crying and talking sh1t, which is when the pointless arguments begin.
3. If I want to go off topic, become a member? ..Why would I pay money just to talk about sh1t and get away with it?

I am over it dude.
At the end of the day, you're the one who spends the money keeping the site running, and no doubt spend hours of your time on it. So if you're happy with how it is, then good for you. I take back everything I said.

If people see that they can get away with it it will keep occurring. If we get rid of it, and people don't see it, it will be less likely that they will keep crapping on.

You answered your own question. If your not paying to use the site, why should you be allowed to talk crap? Pay to help the site run, and go for your life. Just keep it in the right sections.
Life is full of rules. You learn to live by them. Don�t go complaining about everything, saying your not getting a fair go.
If you want to keep discussing this, throw me a PM, I�m over it.

im over it too dude!
this is another pointless thread. become a member! or keep this crazy opinion to yourself!
To put it quite simply: If you don't like how the forum is run and you think it has gone downhill, then we are not forcing you to post on this site.
Each forum is run differently, and this is how we run ours. We can't please everybody.
