I think it's important to keep a culture of talking alive on a forum, or your forum is screwed forthwith - following that, FUCK people who whine about either searching, or gravedigging - it's great if you found a thread, and it's great if you made a thread, and if people don't like it, maybe they should go somewhere threads don't exist, so nobody will post in them.
Promote positive car culture - snowflake ricers who think everything under the sun is doing it wrong, with no distinction as to what is actually wrong, or not, don't attract anyone - if they're doing it wrong, they're trying to do it and you should be trying to help them. There's nothing wrong with calling out what's wrong, but that thread is generally a discord-sowing misdirection of the energy that the community needs.
It's important to make sure that pictures are hosted in long-term ways, so that builds and how-to's and other underpinnings of the community don't float away with old members loss of interest, and undermine the knowledge base. Threads should be future-proof.
Convince people to save 240s - beyond improving, there won't be any left to talk about pretty soon.
