cant u just keep a log of the edited post, only visible to admins/mods?

this would be the ideal solution, but we will have to see if it's practical. as it would mean much more data stored. and I don't know if it's even possible with the software we have.

My event thread is on hold cause I cant edit posts

Also it is true that most fourm members have no clue about the new systems that has started :kiss: with reporting posts to edit information

Its not on hold - your aware of "report post", please use it until the work is complete on the solution (that Dan said one page ago)

i think Stewy is onto something with

already having a trader rating and putting a time frame on how long you have been on this site, i think a minimum number of posts isnt a good idea as that promotes spam

i was going to suggest maybe a minimum donation or after you've made x amount of donations then you have the ability to edit

but support would need to be added to make multiple subscriptions at the moment its only one

My thoughts exactly. Could just do something similar to what nissansilvia.com has done, they require you be a member for 6 months AND have 100 posts to be able to make threads in the classifieds section - surely something like that would be the easiest to implement & a good way to weed out scammers? rather than to have mods manually edit peoples posts

I find it silly and saving "reporting" till I really need too, as I dont want to be whinge at by Admins,Mods cause I want a lot of changes done in my thread.

yeh the posts part is a bit iffy, i know ns use it, but it does promote spam. we should take advantage of the trader system we have here on SAU, as long as people dont go to the effort of creating troll accounts so they can give each account trader ratings etc.

I requested some posts be edited about 5 days ago, and none of them have been changed yet.. why don't you guys leave it enabled until you work out what you want to do?

+1. i've reported my thread for some changes to be made. didnt happen. i also reported it to be closed. can someone please do that for me. its inmy sig. thanks guys

well I can't speak directly for the for sale mods as I am not one of them - but threads don't and shouldn't get deleted, edited or closed just because something is sold. Just post in the thread that it is closed.

closing a thread doesnt mean the info is lost.

Would enlisting more mods help? I'd be happy to do it.

Honestly running a group buy without being able to edit my post is very frustrating. I can understand it from an accountability point of view but should we call suffer for a few bad traders?

  • 2 weeks later...

For one, I didnt even know that editing has been removed on purpose, it is only until I searched around and found this thread that I now know that you guys got rid of it.

I too, dont even know what the report button did until now.

It seems only a few of the same people in this thread have posted here. Imagine the rest of SAU who dont know about any of this. THOUSANDS

THATS WHY YOU HAVE NO REPORTS

I think its stupid.

People make mistakes in things they type and the way they type it. Why have to go thru so much BS to change a few words around?

As if theres not enough FS threads already...now everytime someone wants to add something to a thread they have to create a new one! WTF!

Ive had a thread going for ages and its worked beautifully being able to edit. since 2006.

Having to read through the thread to see if somethings sold is BS. Most people dont know how to manage their thread effectively, so they get PMs re things previously for sale. Then they dont reply, then people get shitty.

Now if I change something on my car once a week and want to sell or swap (it does happen), thats a new thread for every week. Doesnt make sense at all. And you're worried about storage space?

Its not hard to avoid dodgy traders. Its common sense. 1. dont buy from someone with neg feedback. 2. dont buy from someone who signed up a day ago. 3. dont buy from someone who has no posts. Its easy.

This is a 'bandaid', 'knee jerk reaction' lol

I HOPE YOUR NEW SOLUTION IS PUTTING THINGS BACK THE WAY THEY WERE.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 馃槀 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
