A few things to address here...

Chat Room will be added soon provided the forum stays stable.

Search will be working again soon, I will have to take the forum down and completely rebuild it, so expect a downtime of 1-3 hours in the near future, maybe this evening.

Because you have X amount of posts doesn't make you any better or worse. I guarantee there are TONS of new members that know a hell of allot more then some of us "Veterans" as some of you stated it.

IMO I really don't want a Off Topic forum, its just a good way to split the forum into dif sections when we don't need to. You came here to talk about the 240sx, please keep it as closely related to that as you can. If you choose to start a Off Topic thread please state that it is off topic by putting it in the Topic Title. In your topic title just put OT: then your subject, People will evenly catch on and start doing this all the time. There will always be some off topic stuff that we can see relevant to the forum. But the worthless posts like a picture of killing cats or whatever is no good to anyone. If you want to post a funny picture then wait till Friday and post it under a topic called Friday Humor, it could be a weekly thing to look forward to.

My last and maybe most important concern would have to be the quality of posts and replies. If a post or reply takes you 30 seconds to think of and post, please ask yourself what good is this post going to do for the forum? Its the posts like people asking questions about a intake and not even saying what 240sx they drive or what intake system they are asking the question about that doesn't help anyone. Or replies that don't answer a question, but instead just get the topic to become off topic. The biggest problem is most posts have a reply to something someone posts and it has nothing to do with the original topic. So please keep the posts on the same topic it started from. Thanks!

Besides all this I think the forum is going very well, sure were going to have some things that wont make every one of you happy. If your not happy get a hold of a Mod or myself and we will take care of it. The forum is only as good as its people who support it so its up to everyone to keep the forum in a informative and fun environment.
