Yeah he only has less than 100 posts under his belt so it might help to point him towards how to do a search. What I mean to say, go easy on people. Its his first post for help in the qld section lets not jump the gun. Better yet, thanks Chris for the effort taken... This should help him out...

Thats cause he intentionally drives aound 2000km's per week, in high traffic areas so he can get spotted...

night

Hey Chris If i was so sick of seeing the same threads id leave... But im all abotu people Chris, im here to help people the best way i can... This is all about posting the right thing in the right area, doing a search shows you have tried... Generally you will find what your looking for, before needing to ask a question or you can add a reply to a previous topic to enrichen the threads material... By all means post a question just be sure you will recieve many replys saying do a search or this has been covered, just go with it and wait for the right info to be posted. If some one says do a search and you have, maby you can ask them to do the search seeing as how they could find it and you could not and this will point you in the right direction. The search function is pretty simple to use once you know how but ill admit it can be hard for people new to it. So any help needed dont hesitate to ask, thats what im here for... _______________________________________________________________ Sorry to pull the pin, but im busted... I need some sleep and ive been on here for about 5 hours straight now... Time to pee and go to bed... PS. Go easy tomorrow, the mods will answer any questions just be sure not to get into attacking each other. This is a forum not a keyboard war, im open to anyones opinion and would love to hear it, thats what forums are all about... Feel free to vent your consirns as its the only way we can make improvements to the area and try to make everyone happy... Just consider when suggesting something that the majority would be happy with the idea, as if its going to cause heat its not going to fly... Good night

For those who were not there and cant see the formation... Try this, it might help understand the formation... The top of the "S" was there, just out of sight in this shot... The original photo; The modified one, outlineing the "SAU" Hope this helps...

Thanks Warren Yeah I pointed that up just above... Threads in the wrong area will attract the wrong attention... As for whoretown, its been around before the main whoretown, its all about relationships and bonding with other friends... Most post in there from work and its good that they post their pointless stuff in there... Whoretown is one of those things that is used by some many that it cannot be removed, its a good resouce otherwise with out it we will get general chit chat threads in the qld section... Whoretown was taken away late 2003 and threads started poping up like "Today 13/10/03 - What ya doing" and these would be used as like a daily whoretown... Most eneded up in the bin but in doing so it cause too many waves and more people were upset... In short its like the bread and butter SAU QLD is built on, I mean to says its better being posted in there than 30 topics a day starting in the general section...

Thanks Chris The workshop thread is dead and will remain that way, it was voted on and the trouble it cause ws not worth the benifit... Way too many complaints, for eveyone who liked it there was a person who hated it cause they didnt get the thread their way... The benifit tho is without the thread it promotes dicussion of workshops and constant user interaction with other users... So its ultimatlly a good thing... Its great to see a thread froma new person asking "Hey where is the best place to get a thingy me bob"... Its sparks discussion... The member events is something you will have to talk to the events execs about... I have nothing to do with that anymore, other than being a member like yourself... It is cluttered, however I like the general event section the way it is cause it helps with repeat events like the sunnybank meets. So the first thread can be updated and the title can be updated with a new events details and then bumped so all those who attended and registered intrest they can get the info emailed to them instantlly... So its a good thing also...

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=useless Serious side: If you dont yeild a result then post the question and ask if others can point you in the right direction... You may not be using the search function correctlly, or someone may have the answer for you there and then... Dont stop posting questions, just use common sence... The biggest complaint I personally have is post your topic in the right area... What i mean is; By posting a topic in the general qld section about what turbo to choose you are not going to get the information you would get if you posted the same topic in the Forced area of the forum... Also by doing a search as bigger result is yields you will get the idea of what section the info your looking for is in... (hot tip from col, better write that one down )

So are you saying lets close everything in qld??? I could pick something wrong with many threads but I see the benifit of some... Jasons thread has had little intrest its about to drop off the first page, it is not a reference list... Nor has it had any complaints that hold water... Jason has pointed out something most of us were un aware of and I dont see him getting anything out of it personally... There is nothing wrong with pointing out this fact John, your missing the point as to why yours was closed... If your making a reference list you need to include everyone with an un-bias opinion, ie cut and paste the yellowpages... If we start deciding who and who does not get into the list then we would be doing the wrong thing... Plus the yellowpages is updated everyday, it has thousands of listings and there is no need to double up on a resource that is already free... So in short, Jasons topic is different to your reference guide... You reference guide and the one made before it were both closed and were closed for the simple reason of heat and that fact that its not needed. You can point as many users to as many places as you like, but at the end of the day the reference list was ment for phone numbers and names, not recomendations and like i said the yellowpages already covers that and I dont get any compalints about the phone book... Like I said "Let sleeping dogs lie"

Hey Chris... Thanks for the feeback... Firstlly let me address the questions above... 1. The thread John created cause too many complaints and sparked a huge disagreement... Yellowpages offers an unbias opinion in alphabitical (spelling) order, this thread he created was to provide phone numbers and address. Which is something that the yellowpages does but with ever listing in Brisbane not just a select few. Also the biggest complaint was about a club sponcer by the members, so what do we do. Ditch the listing or promote the listing... The forums is separate to the club and for that reason i refer back to the forums guidelines... This thread cause too much heat for its benifit hence it was closed. But as i said its not mived so it can be found quite easily with a search and or a point in its direction with a copy paste of the address... Whoretown, there is only one whoretown in qld. All regions of qld should put off topic posts in whoretown always... NSW sections is an example of too many sticky topics, its take 3 scrolls of the mouse to get to the content and past the stickys... Also ill ad here i never want more than 4 sticky topics in the qld section at any one time. However in saying that there will be times when more are needed. However is its not essential that it will be un-sticked again... The noob section is only a trial, we will test and see how it goes... 2. Stats, will have to contact Squizz about this... 3. Events, I dont close them simplly as they generally just drop off the page and dont ever cause any hassles. Also they are great for reference and if someone has a question about past events they can post them up in that topic rather than starting a new one... Closing the topic has no benifit other than stopping people from posting new content to the thread, so it saves nothing else... This help???

John> Well it works the way it is atm either let people have an active role in the forum by letting them suggest places to go... Or you can point them in the direction of your thread, thats why i left it there. So you can use it as reference... As for a even bigger list of places to take you car, you need not look any further than below... www.yellowpages.com.au www.whitepages.com.au The work is done... Let sleeping dogs lie... Lets keep this thread moving...

Nice... Post up the pics tomorrows then...

WOW We certainlly left an impression...

miridol who...? There is no member by the user name miridol...!!!

Ok, yeah i guess thats the beauty of forums... Anyone can suggest anything or anyone to conduct a service and give that company/person a good or bad review... Yes sponcers are great and they get their value from work of mouth business and most then give back to the forum... Slide as in example, he has recieved allot of business from SAU users and he is now a sponcer and business trader, oh and a top bloke :shameless plug: But yeah, thats forums i guess. No one would be flamed for suggesting a non-sponcer... If they offer a great service or do a great job then tell the people of SAU about them. Its then up to the club execs and forum admin to approach them for sponcership if they become really popular and can offer each other something usefull... Hope this helps...

Yes, point taken however no one has made a complaint about the above thread... Also your thread was not only complaint about by sponcers/traders it was complained about 2 or 3 members saying they felt uncomfortable about advertising certain workshops as they had bad experiences... So we cant add or delete traders based on what people say. If its a list then it needs to be complete or not as all... So what im saying is if its in the phone book then all business should be given equall opertunity... However what do we do when a know workshop is on a sh1t list, do we reove it based on someones opinion or do we leave it there and then that person gets upset about it...? It was a loose loose situation hence its closure... Said that, if someone were to complain abotu Azzurra thread then id look into it...

Im a little lost on this??? But if you asking about advertising within a thread asking where to get something done, they is rarelly a problem. Only a complaint would spark any action. If your asking is it ok to suggest a workshop without getting in trouble or if you can refer people to your service traders thread, then the answer is no you would not get into trouble. In fact in encourage you to offer advice, thats what SAU is all about...

Never do... All threads are good threads, its just a case of weather they are in the right section or not... No worries, thats what I had in mind for this thread when I asked Mud to open it back up... But it got a little out of control, im all for venting tho so i dont mind...

As you saying your lazy Andy???

Yeah those who were there would be able to see the SAU in that photo... Great idea too Adam...

picsorban

Yeah not worries Noel... In short if its to do with Queensland then post it in Queensland... Thats it, thats all the guidelines you need... (As stated above also mate ) Apart from the usuall guidelines that cover the whole forums, you base your threads to the section that is most revelent... Does this make sence??? PS> Ill never allow noob bashing... Never have and never will...

Ill confirm tomorrow if im in for one or two seats... Would love to try Ribbets, never had it before... I remember the frog ad's also...
