The Sa Wasteland

[CRoNic...]

omg no way!! i still got the awesome thread opened in my browser with last 2 pages saved on there woooo!!

Save the 2 pages and upload it to another file sharing website... so I can link it lol.

[Dohmar]

Bah the server is huge no doubt, 9 pages won't kill it.

So why is there 1028 pages of wasteland, and the old crap no one reads hasn't been deleted?

and yet people kick up a fuss about 9 pages that get removed anyways..

lol

/end rant

Yes the server is huge, but Christian rents it from a hosting company - and they charge by the megabyte - which is why you now see ads at the top of the page. Wasteland is fine, its what its there for.

And as for it being 'only 9 pages' - thats 9 pages of bullshit the mods have to sort thru, and its not a once off - this is happening often. The mods have better things to do than to lock threads, and when you guys do nothing but spam the shit out of a thread, they are compelled to look thru it to see what is said.... what does warrant 9 pages of bullshit?

+1's are sometimes useful to indicate agreement, but IBTL should be a 1 week holiday. Serves no purpose that to whore someones post count up. Its bad enough when you log on to SAU and someone has his name as the most recent poster in no less than the last 10 threads. Its hard enough to find relevant information in the search engine without the bullcrap wasting your time.

[scandyflick]

Idiots can't read rules again... the rest of you, was there really a need to whore up this thread. Leave it be, report it and let mods take care of it, was there really a need for 9 pages of rubbish?

you know what, I'm seriously pissed that I had to go through 9 pages of crap because a newbie didn't know any better & regulars who should know better, couldn't help themselves.

I'm tempted to go thru that thread again and pick out the names of all the regulars and give you all a holiday but instead I'll give you all a warning cause this place would be very quiet for a couple of weeks otherwise.

Next time a stupid thread gets spammed with "IBTL" expect a holiday (no matter who you are) and an increase in the warning percentage.......feel free to give the newbie that starts a thread like that some direction or let us handle it, but there's no need for anymore than a couple of posts on top of the first.

I did have a life earlier today other than SAU, but have now wasted an hour doing this all for 1 lousy thread!!

[heslo]

My thoughts exactly Pete, actually spoke to Andrew today about this too briefly and he is in agreeance also. I know we sound like hard asses for this but we like to enjoy SAU too instead of scrolling through thread after thread of rubbish like IBTL

[skylineguy19]

on a unrelated topic, pete, your old beast was at my work today, one of the guys went outside for lunch and was in the carpark with luke getting in it. Apparently he gave it a little on the way out lol. Still looking tuff he said.

[Madaz]

We're nothing compared to the interstate guys with 10,000+ posts!

Every forum will be whored... so why start up a forum and think "I hope no one posts over 1,000 posts... otherwise I'll have to buy another cluster"

have you ever search what some of them say its not all banter a lot of people with high post counts actually do contribute

[Madaz]

yeah not wrong, but funnily enough i started researching rebuilds like 4-5 days ago knowing one day i may need one just wasn't thinking it would be this soon

damn that sux to hear Steve,

were u boosting it when it happened??

no wasn't boosting it started on my way home from work thursday i just thought it was my front bar flapping

then this morning heard it louder and thought it was my clutch fan, till i got to work and with Luke help we diagnosed it was a bearing

Na James limiter bash played no part in bearings going

[MissR34]

how many km's were on the motor Steve?

u gonna rebuild or put a second hand motor in???

[Madaz]

no Idea how many Km's on the motor it was out of a stagea but ive had the car since 123k and just clocked over 200k and thats 80k hard serviced properly but driven hard not hardly driven

will look into all building options so i bought a daily and will start saving and purchasing parts as needed for a forged bottom end and maybe even a 25/30
