  • Something I noticed about the forum.

    So I viewed the site off my work computer while not logged in and noticed by default the forum only displays the last day's posts. This forum is fairly active, but not active enough that it shows a full page of posts for a single day. The general forum only showed 1 post! Maybe a mod should change it so it shows the last week's worth of posts? Could probably get some fresh blood in here, because for a second I was like "wow where did all the posts go?" If i browsed it for the first time I'd think the forum was dead.

    Just click on the drop down menu and display posts up to a year if you want or the begining. Its what I do if I click on a foruum that has no posts in a week.

      also mods usually clean it up after a couple days. you can tell which sections have active mods cause they are usually clean and only show active threads.

          Yea I know that... :) What I'm saying is the default is 1 day. It makes the forum look dead to new visitors. The default of 1 day works fine on really popular super active forums since it makes them appear less cluttered and shows more time relevant content in searches. CV6 has a ton of great info, but its not as active as it once was.

          That could be cool. Maybe we can think of some kind of incentives for people to participate.

          Considering the hordes of 5th gen v6's I see on the street it would be realistic and cool to see some fresh blood on this forum.

            Make the forum colors more dark and sinister. Black.

            It would be a great idea to have more 5th gen information available.

                    Why couldn't it? It honestly cant be THAT hard to do, what just take a minute to click/give someone administrator/moderator privileges, and then just watch the forum for that special winner of ROTM, email them for some information and pictures of their car, and then put it up. It would take 10 minutes at tops to do. I have no idea why this hasnt been updated in years....just trying to bring some life and community to the forum. ...

                      It's not hard to do. They (TealV6 / FirebirdGT) just don't want to do it.

                            Seriously, a black forum with white text sounds like a horrible idea?

                            Much better than lime green and bright blue. We need to make our "image" look tough and powerful... kinda like LS1tech.

                            This was probably an "open mouth, insert foot" moment. I'm just going to apologize in advance.

                            Flame away...
