Merli, what do you feel your role is?

If you are so offended by Squizz, then maybe you should take him up on the offer of the poll.

From an above post...

You weren't chosen to be a moderator because "you were the best person for the job", you were chosen because you posted a lot and spent a lot of time browsing the forums.

surely someone who spends a lot of time browsing, is going to be one of the best people to do the job??

I have nothing positive to say? Did you even READ my first post? That was all aimed at a positive future of SAU pat.gif

My role here is to browse the forums and post when I feel like it.

Unfortunately I was privvy to the rants of a few disgruntled moderators, so I thought I should say something before SAU fell apart. The aim of this thread was to get people to say what was bothering them about SAU and the way it was being run, so hopefully moderators could take an objective view, sit back and see if people have a valid point or not, and then hopefully make inroads to fixing any problems.

someone who spends a lot of time browsing, and is mature enough to make forum decisions, untainted by emotion, bias, grudges and personal vendettas? YES.

Most of the issues that seem to be arising in relation to 'forum issues' are people who have issues with others.

Personally, it's my belief that if you have a problem with someone, you should take it up with them personally instead of posting your feelings on a public forum.

I am another person who feels that there are 'too many cheifs', and by saying this, I am putting my own moderator status on the line.

Some moderators were 'assigned', others were added as moderators because they are responsible people, and can make a judgement call without having to defend themselves.

I don't think that the forum needs so many moderators, as there is a button on every post that allows posts to be reported.

As long as the reported posts are being taken care of, then thats all that matters.

:)

I pretty much agree with everything you just said, except for the "too many cheifs" thing... I'm still undecided about that, as ideally, it shouldn't *really* matter how many moderators there were, as long as they were all mature and sensible. Of course this is but just a dream we call Utopia ;)

Again, the aim of this thread wasn't to start culling moderators. Not from my perspective anyway...

:uh-huh:

i dont think the 'to many chief' thing applies anyway because we all have the same amount of power so really it doesnt matter. atm i cant think of what else to say to make my statement sound better and more understanding because im sick and just woke up

True - we could have 1400 members and 1400 mods provided they all did their job correctly.

People need to start taking constructive feedback as that - not an insult. (me included).

4thly - yeah come on mods, this whole skating on thin ice only applys to me .. last check im the only one who plays ice hockey...

5thly - the only problem with mario that i have is.. that a) from what i hear, he dont build the car, he just pays the bill, and then secondly he dont drive teh car on teh track..

personally that to me is cheque book racing..

My feedback is that everyone should stop letting their personal feelings get in the way of this forum.

Everything's becoming far too serious here & there's some large egos getting in everyone's way.

This place is turning into SDU........or even worse........PF.

Stop all the moaning & get on with your lives.........IT'S ONLY A FORUM.

I agree. As Donnie says. You guys need to come to atleast one westie cruise and you will see what SAU has been truly about.

Just being with friends with common interests and having a good time like we all have been doing.

NO egos and no attitudes and no grudges.

    • Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.
    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
