Well, sometimes it takes me more than a minute to produce those graphics, so if you would actually spend a second or two reading the refrences I give you, you might get the complete picture.

And there is no need to call me Mr. Superior. Your Majesty will do just fine.



Yes they do. Did you read the whole thing? I doubt it since your answer came so quick.

 

dude, i participated in that thread. i will be happy to take back my words if you can find anywhere that a mod/admin has stated that they turned off the post count in the MW forum.

and i think your majesty is a bit much ... your highness is much better.

so mr heiney, that is all ...

 

now 6 months to answer ... not bad zoom not bad!!

 

Greatness is most often not associated with punctuality.

I invented the Heinie, BTW.

 

I did not mention the lounge as I am fully aware that it does not add to the total.

To echo what RSD said, it is absolutely pertinent because I was responding to someone's post about needing a certain post count to start a thread.

Thanks RSD!

 

Now let me get back to work!

 

np gray, us windy city folk stick together!

 

OK, enough work. My suggestion.

Rather than post count (mine is low cause I lurked on the site for over a month prior to joining searching for answers) how about time based. Anyone who has been on the site less than 3 - 6 months, whatever, when they click on new thread, is prompted with a "Did you search for this topic first?" dummy box. If they click yes then open new thread. If they click no then redirect to search page. If they click yes and are lying, flame away.

Suggestion part 2 which is contrary to the last sentence above. If a repeat thread is opened have a mod close it immediately with an canned answer such as: "Existing topic, search". (Some of these mods can be brutal). That prevents pages and pages of flaming which again adds to the unnecessary posts. One of the biggest issues with searching is that you can get back 40+ results with multiple pages on each thread. After reading several of these that are mostly flames telling the person he is an idiot it makes the search frustrating. And I know that many here can search in detail but they have the advantage of having particpated in that thread so may have more key words to filter on or will be able to quickly sort through the multiple threads on the topic because they remember which it was in.

Somebody kick the soap box, I have more work to do before I can go home.

 

If someone starts a thred and it is a repeat. Don't respond and it will go away. Instead, on this site, you guys post and post and post correcting the guy and bashing him, and the thred stays around for ever.

 

but then how can they use all the flame smileys? i mean its not really over til someone posts right?



j/k

 

I believe people should do a search first since posting new thread is a waste of bandwidth. Furthermore if people keep adding new threads of same or similar topic, someone that actually did a search is gonna have to read through all those similar threads that might or might not answer their questions, waste of time.

 

wow this thread still goin/??? lock it already, all we doin is goin back to the same over and over. yes search works, yes the answers you get might be too out dated, yes mazdamaniac is a dick, yes noobs are annoying sometimes, yes new threads can be a waste of banwidth only if you post pics and videos on it not other wise. but thats what makes us family. we all argue and disagree but in the end we all have one thing in common. and that one thing is what makes this forum. MAZDA RX8!!!

 

gayest post i ever done....

 

Bite me, assclown.
You sure bitch a lot for someone who is saying a lot of nothing.

No it won't. When they don't get an immediate response, they start bumping the thread and complaining that no one is paying attention to their question.

 

:muffled laughter:

 

in my defense mazdamaniac.... this is chubaka, now those this make sence? no it doesnt make sence. here we are a bunch of grown man talkin about chubaka.

How about we don't make this personal? I thought we are supposed to use PMs to tell people they are dicks, assclowns, ******** or asshats?

I vote for the noob forum and restricting all noobs to post there for their first three months on the forum.

 

That's no fun.
