Suggestions for improving threads, chime in!
 

Too often questions pop up like: Car won't run, help! without any details as to year, type, location, signature. It would save a lot of space here if, before someone could start a new topic, some required fields needed to be filled in to encourage the user to disclose the best possible details regarding the year, history, repairs, upgrades, symptoms, etc. Also, to encourage the use of the "Search" feature, a new-topic-user could be advised to search first before popping a non-specific, vague question. I think it's almost a must to have a signature for location, etc. before posting. What thoughts on this one? :rolleyes:

I only request that thread titles be a bit more specific. I can't stand threads that are titled vague. Search functions also work much better when the thread has a decent title.

I like City/State and Year/Model to be listed in the SIG/Avatar too. It does help understand issues (rust in Maine is different than rust in Tucson) and will yield better answers.

its friday guys,,, this is a better monday thread im thinking. either that or see scooter.....

All threads should be screened for spelling and grammar. Any thread containing mispelled words or gramatically incorrect sentences should be instantly deleted. Any requests for technical assistance should include the authors SSN, mothers maiden name and last two year's W-2.

The author of a reply should include documentation in support of their expert status. For example, the signature line could state, "I'm not a doctor, but I play one on television".

All threads should include a photograph, even if it is unrelated to the topic. That way, those of us who are technically incompetent will have something to entertain us.

But seriously, providing background on the year and model of your car is most important. Otherwise, I would say that most people do an excellent job of explaining their issues. I like the threads where people share their own stupidity. That way we all feel a little less inadequate.

Also, all posts must include a pic of a really hot chick.

This thread is shaping up to be another gem....lol

Vague titles get me too.... "Guess what" as a title for a transmission question.....AAAHHHHHHH!

Also, I'm all for hot chick pics as long as they're SFW.

...with a 911 to keep it on topic...

Also sometimes pictures will help make technical answers more clear...

agreed!

i cant stand when someone ask a que, and gets offended if the answer is not to their liking. there are some smart folks here, and some regular guys that have been through the same friggen thing. and that is better than smart...

not much you can do about the majority of it, but a required signature with at least the year and model would be nice. a complete name would be nice too. nothing to hide from here.

Let's keep it on topic people..... there are plenty o' topics on this site to discuss everything...
