Well yeah, it’s because Network General is Gen auto network wide… and it has one post in it. Not a “bunch” of import crap.

Chill.

What would be the point of a network wide thread if it didn’t show up on all of the sites? The network wide is where the sites come together and there are not many of them.

But we didn’t ask for this, it was forced upon us. If we wanted to see threads about Honda B16 vtec engines for sale, we would go to THEIR site. Likewise them with us, I doubt they give a shit.

Don’t you find it weird that a lot of only our specific site threads are bashing many of the people, cars and the sites we now are affiliated with?

Give us the option to filter out that shit, because I heard CanDrift and many other forums… Do infact give options. Just saying.

Lol at forced upon you. You pay the bills, you do the work, you make the decisions. Simple as that.  
Hate can still be posted in the non network forums. I could care less if you hate on torontonissan. Just keep the bs out of the network threads. As for a filter, you are a filter if you hate it and do not want to read it, don’t click on it. Pretty simple solution if you ask me.

Then take your bill paying elsewhere and filter yourself away from me.

not really a solution, but you can always collapse the forums you don’t want to see… out of sight, out of mind?

That is actually a great solution that I didn’t think of. Solid post :tup: there are also mods that allow filtering, I am not sure if they are compatible with this board yet. We are running pretty custom software and not all mods work for us, or they take way too much time for me to work out with m busy schedule

Doesn’t sound like it’s going to be a huge loss when you stop posting. Judging by your endless whining so far.

5cott, the forums are not public property.

I recommend cooling down a bit.

Public Property? No one said it was.

I came to rant about my post, which I did.

Your right; its not public property so just as much as I complain, if someone else complains I whine too much then they can just minimize my post

Alot will change in the future… we’re quite a bit behind on some of the behind the scenes stuff and we need to catch up on that before we start making front end changes.
