I had to hop over and look what that was.
Members are asked not to disclose any 3rd party site, bulletin board, news feed, forum, blog, or any similar web site. If the post has the only purpose of publicizing a similar genre site or another party, the offending link will be removed. If the user continues to post in the same manner the user will be warned. #
so open ended that you can't really post any link that doesn't direct you in the forum.
Sounds like a lot of doublespeak to me.
No thanks.. I like the environment around here.

And dont forget Folks, that the rule also applies to Private Messages (PM) which are NOT private in the least.

I'm glad to see that many found there way over here despite the dictatorial attempts of the A.S Admin and his cronies to stop people from finding out about this site and accessing the info we have.
We have a policy of respect for our members and that includes letting them decide if they need to post a link to any additional info that a 3rd party site may offer including links to A.S, but above that we sure as hell will never be looking at anybodys PM's.

I remember about the first thing I saw on there was a picture of "old Yellar"
He's still around here too, somewhere, "Yellan" at someone no doubt.
Lol, but seriously folks. I like it here, Doyoulikeithere?
You posted on the archive board I thought......

I think the fact that they even need a locked area called "The Attic" says something. The way it's advertised makes it look like a power trip.
I don't want to get too much into forum moderating, but you can use people skills to tactfully remind people of things, PM them, even warn and suspend if you have to .... or you can plot in secret. Can't website changes be discussed openly, especially when it's the members who use it and make the board what it is? Cloak and dagger sorta stuff bothers me. What are you hiding? Tell it to my face.
Whatever.

I was on the old site. Haven't posted in years now.
How many were at the site before that? With the purple? Astrovanoffroader, mdmead, etc.
I was there. I have a 2004 now, a 1994 then (both for a while).
Any advice on injector diagnosis/repair on a 2004?
Also, if you don't have one of these, they are fantastic....saved a lot of grief changing heater hoses today.
