Need input from the west coast forum on what I can do to help you enjoy the forum :)

This is a open discussion group posting. Be professional and courteous to others replies. Anything you guys can think of that should be done or addressed in our section please give me your ideas and suggestions. When I was deployed in Afghanistan I would sit my marines down and have a discussion on what I(we)can do to make life easier and ensure we all go home.

Please keep it mature. And if you get out if line I have the whipping stick for your hard to comprehend needs......just kidding.


Some examples pmd to me where.
Redoing a new shop location thread and clean up all the clutter.

Have a delete day for all old for sale threads.

West classified feedback thread.



Let's hear them.
Alex

Fun for all and a great way to meet all the other RX-7 people in person somewhere other than a parking lot. Lets get some solidarity going!

How about in all the classifieds you have to put up the state initials when you start a classifieds thread so everyone knows what state the goods or seller is in. I think it would make it a ton easier to search through the classifieds and not have to open threads that have no designation only to find the goods are states away. Im more talking about all the classifieds, but it can work in the west classifieds as well seeing as its not just california in here LOL. I know i scroll through the classifieds and have seen parts id like to pick up like engines that the seller wants onky local pick ups for. Ill go in the thread only to find the seller is in alabama or something lol. I know you can already put the initials but i think it should be mandatory.

Natey- Absolutely a summer meet would be sweet.

Rotary Bobby -Unfortunatelly the way the forum is laid out its intended for each classsifed to be used in that region. so if people outside the region post they should be relocated if they want the forum to see they need to post in the general section

But still a great Idea how about sellers and buyers start putting City location in the AD for example.

FS- Los Angeles- Bosch 044 ,FD bumpers white and red, 16" oem wheels
WTB- Fresno - 83 GSL emblems and hood struts

Hers an example on my ad

cleaning up classifieds would be a help reduce wasted time by members looking at "old news"

^ we currently have WHiV in Vegas (working out details for WHiV8 now) in the spring, many folks from various states attend including Cali as well as Vendors

13x do you have a thread made yet so we can make it official and stick it on top of the section.

Cleaning up of the classifieds is something I been trying to do but I need everyone to come together and close their old threads or post SOLD at the end. That way when I check random threads I see it and close it as well.


KEEP THEM COMING

west forum is dead so bring back the post count and kill the mod's ability to edit any post/censorship. West forum should be fun like back in days.

Fixing things so when you post in the West section that post will add to your post count might help. Certainly will get activity up from Newbies.

I second encouraging sellers or WTBers post what city they're in, especially if they're looking for something big like a body part.

All the PM Wacky for smog **** or whatever joke is dead already, give it a rest people!!!! That bullshit alone makes me not want to bother with the mess that the west forum is in.

P.S. I know this is bound to attract a string of shitty nonsensical posts from people with old shitty cars that make no power about dumb ****... whatever.

We have a winner!! Your IQ must be high to finally realized that it was a joke since asking for a hook up on a public forum is a no-no, thus peeps will refer them to me since my cars are smog exempt.

so what if i own an old rx with no power. And you're wrong as I can AFFORD to build a RX-3 with more HP than your FD but what for? I just enjoy restoring these cars. I'm not some broke *** kid lol

Seems like the whole forum in general ain't what it used to be.i build a lot of old school cars and would post up a lot of builds but now I don't post as much seems like no ones interested in them.
