I would like it to be a “core friends and members” type, invite only forum. People who actually work on thier own cars, go to races, who have something to offer, and isnt just here for socializing.

> [@STEALTTH](#): > > :word: I hate when people say, it’s just the internet. That may be true, but if you’re an asshole online, i’m prob not going to like you in person. How you act online also dictates the kind of person you are. I would say to an extent. I have meet lots of people from the boards. Some i thought would be cool, and they were jackasses, most that seemed like they would be idiots were actually pretty cool. Lets use the shining example of Beck. He is a tard on the interweb, but a decent guy in person. ---

you’d rather push a fat girl down some stairs… anyways, i still stand by the belief that OT should have low moderation… ban people from GA and tech, but leave the dumbasses here so i can make fun of them. ---

I think the off topic should be narrowed down a bit. Instead of just off topic it should be called SOCIALLY RELEVANT OFF TOPIC and it should be policed accordingly. Topics such as “cost of living” or “politics” or “terrorist attacks” or “natural disasters” are examples of socially relevant issues. Irrelevant topics should be deleted such as “This guy passed a note to my girl friend in math class, if you see him kick his ass”. My 2 cents. Edit: a comedy forum would be fun for the latest jokes etc because everyone likes comedy. ---

So yeah, your idea is totally lame, and **you** are the joke forum. ---
