aqwkmf · 08-29-2002, 09:31 PM

so far this was the best forum untill now. show me where me asking about a 1/4 mile time is not on topic. i've been refering every 240 owner i've met to this board but if we are going to lock every thread then fuck it. add a fucking OT forum. thats the only resoultion becuase other wise the moderators will lock every post because thier all off topic. now either make a usefull repy or lock this too. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':angry:'>  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':angry:'>  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':angry:'>

You are really helping by bumping an 8yr old thread. Take some time off.

anthonyisd3ad · 01-19-2011, 10:23 PM

whats up with all the broken code in this thread?

gearhead55 · 01-19-2011, 11:16 PM

Wow I feel dumb now, I was reading some of these posts and thinking ''WTF are they talking about, there is a off topic chat'.

Now I realize it's bumped from almost a fucking DECADE ago. Jesus christ.

SR20Fastback · 08-29-2002, 09:37 PM

Personally I think its only S13Grl thats locking threads, because about 10 or so have been locked by her today. Hence her nickname Nazi Moderator... I guess it cant really be helped, but your question seems legit to be in this section. Maybe because it said OT she locked it? I dunno, but I hope you stay man  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

aqwkmf · 08-29-2002, 09:40 PM

no it wasnt OT...it was completely on topic about 240sx's but seriously. this is the only forum i've seen that doesnt have a OT board. FA, RX7Club, Nopistons, 300zxclub, 240sxforums, clubsi....they all have ot boards. and instead of locking the thread so that the person can get no feedback just move it.

fodive · 08-29-2002, 09:42 PM

dont leave dude,  the forum is going to be fine, i think the mods just went a little overboard today to make a point that there should be less off topic posts, the board is going to be fine as long as people still conrtibute

chickenmanq · 08-29-2002, 09:42 PM

I think we should all just forget about it for a while.  Moderator(s) included.  I think there has been some slight overzealous locking of topics, perhaps to make a point, because there are also a lot of ridiculous threads.  Nothing more, nothing less.

Clear your mind, post some good info, and relax.

SimpleS14 · 08-29-2002, 09:44 PM

KiDyNomiTe · 08-29-2002, 10:03 PM

As she explained she is trying to get the boards back to the way they are. The board used to have every topic on topic, but now everyone turned the Chat into an Off Topic. So many posts, but most are off topic. SO I say hooray for S13Grl. Hopefully this sends a message to everyone else. If you go to Fresh Alloy they will bitch at you even more.

This is exactly what my point is. This is the most off-topic 240 board around. yet we have a lot of reputation with owners. Every meet I go to, people just blow zilvia off because of all the off-topic crap that goes on. It's not the way it should be. I'm not saying that everything should be totally stopped, I"m just trying to get a message accross. You all always talk about how there's too much off-topic crap on. There is, and I dont' like being asked why is it that none of the moderators are doing anything about it. Mark's nice enough to provide a site for us all to bitch on, let's get the good reputation back now, because it isn't just us, it's him as well.

One-Eighty SX · 08-29-2002, 10:16 PM

Okie, i know there is alot of OT's in here and it does suck alot. But my last post was maybe out of hand cuz i didnt like how the mag degraded the women in it. But i too want it back where i can find the info i want and need and not no OT bs. I feel why she did it cuz all the good topics is like gone. Those retard photoshopping pics or favors got to stop cuz alot of ppl can do it themselves jus too lazy to find the software to do it.... ahh that is how i feel

aqwkmf · 08-29-2002, 10:17 PM

i totally understand what you are saying. but your missing the point. its not going to stop by just locking the threads. we need a OT catagory added. what can be done to get one? people need some where to go to vent, or have a general question or comment. if the same flaming and locking keeps going on its just going to piss people off and they are going to leave. 75% of the flames are at people who think threads are off topic. ff we had a OT catagory then no one complain that the topic is OT and leaving the general 240 catagory for strictly 240 stuff.

S13Grl · 08-29-2002, 10:25 PM

I'm really not sure. That was requested before, but I think that we voted it out b/c of the lack of relativity and the possibility of 240 chat being kind of left alone. Most people just voted for the whole "if you're off-topic, go to off-topic.net". But I don't know if I think it would be a bad idea. Seems that's something we might want if we want to follow the set guidelines fully and correctly.

yeah but the thing is you know that no one wil ever follow th eset guidlines, just look at the post in the tech colum right now, which i basically an FU post, and its in the tech section, i agree that we should ahve a OT forum, but that may just cause more arguments and flame wars about what is OT, and what isnt OT, you see what im saying?

aqwkmf · 08-29-2002, 10:32 PM

how about a OT Catagory label with a direct link to off-topic.net

fodive · 08-29-2002, 10:35 PM

people dont like to talk to strangers, they like to talk to us, im ok with likea c ouple of friday humours and stuff in the chat, but its the freaking look what i found on ebay type posts that get on my nerves

i think we should all get into the zilvia AIM chat room instead of debating on this post by post, but thats just my opinion

xLSTONEx · 08-29-2002, 10:53 PM

what is the biggest 240Sx forum on the net. I have yet to find a nice one except for this one. 240Sx forums isn't big enough yet so I haven't joined it, even though it looks a whole lot nicer thank this one. But I like this forum and we should keep it clean and keep more people coming in.

**West** · 08-29-2002, 11:18 PM

Not sure why everyone is mad but I have a damn good idea. I will reply about everything tomorrow. I just got back from a Broncos game and need to go to bed. b

tnord · 08-30-2002, 01:21 AM

here's the ultimate solution.........

everybody goes to their local pet store, purchases a helper monkey named mojo. now with mojo you can accomplish many things, most importantly increase your IQ. now with a higher IQ, everybody won't be so idiotic. and instead of having absolutely pointless arguments and starting rediculous topics, you can actually have intellectual arguments about such intriguing subjects as.........the spring rates of valve springs, should they be progressive? when you actually become a "non-idiot" you can begin posting again. but for now, the member count should be somewhere around 20.

in case nobody has noticed, i'm being stupid.

*Grant* · 08-30-2002, 02:02 AM

I agree with Irena. A lot of the socal members kinda dismiss zilvia as a joke forum. It shouldnt be that way. I mean i know there are "tightwad" mods like Alex and Asad on freshalloy.com but it works. People argue there, but the stuff is meaningful.. Their intellectual level has gone beyond the sr vs ka, your mom is...... blah blah, phase. Nonetheless that has been a sucessful forum.

I mean seriously, if we can all just a grow up a bit, act more formal it would help. Keep those BS responses to a minimum, and try to get on track with things. This INCLUDES me, so I will do my best and not just dick around either.

I know it makes it seem boring, but zilvia.net is where 240sx memebers discuss about 240sx's and help eachother, sharing technical information about their cars and giving eachother advice. it wasnt intended for fucking around and posting random off topic posts, about other cars and what not.. (no disrespect, but there are other forums for other cars. ) and lets try to keep it mostly countoured to the concept and keep B.S. posts to a minimum.
Any kind of B.S. takes up bandwidth and space.

yes we need a off-topic forum, I agree, but does anyone want to help mark fund it or maintain it? remember Mark is busting his ass to maintain and provide a free 240sx community.. the least we can do is contribute and work with him..

I hope what I said doesnt just go in one ear and out the other.

okisil80 · 08-30-2002, 04:27 AM

I know I'm going to piss someone off but.... this section's labeled CHAT. I don't see how too much could be OT in a section labeled CHAT. If you only want to see technical threads (except for a few, unwanted exceptions), go to TECH TALK. I don't see what's so complicated or what all this bickering and locking threads is about. You guys have a OT forum pretty much already set up the way I see it.

CHAT - "General Discussion About The Nissan 240SX"

trying to stray way from posts like "s13 is a nazi!" or "hondas suck"  and other random useless information.

tech talk offers technical help. while general discussion, may be instances where people give advice on what to do to their car, or find out some relevant info about are cars.

The mods havent been bickering, other members have.  We just lock useless/irrelevant threads.

A lot of the socal members kinda dismiss zilvia as a joke forum. It shouldnt be that way. I mean i know there are "tightwad" mods like Alex and Asad on freshalloy.com but it works. People argue there, but the stuff is meaningful.. Their intellectual level has gone beyond the sr vs ka, your mom is...... blah blah, phase. Nonetheless that has been a sucessful forum. I mean seriously, if we can all just a grow up a bit, act more formal it would help. Keep those BS responses to a minimum, and try to get on track with things. This INCLUDES me, so I will do my best and not just dick around either. I know it makes it seem boring, but zilvia.net is where 240sx memebers discuss about 240sx's and help eachother, sharing technical information about their cars and giving eachother advice. it wasnt intended for fucking around and posting random off topic posts, about other cars and what not.. (no disrespect, but there are other forums for other cars. ) and lets try to keep it mostly countoured to the concept and keep B.S. posts to a minimum. Any kind of B.S. takes up bandwidth and space. yes we need a off-topic forum, I agree, but does anyone want to help mark fund it or maintain it? remember Mark is busting his ass to maintain and provide a free 240sx community.. the least we can do is contribute and work with him.. I hope what I said doesnt just go in one ear and out the other.

I don't see how too much could be OT in a section labeled CHAT. If you only want to see technical threads (except for a few, unwanted exceptions), go to TECH TALK. I don't see what's so complicated or what all this bickering and locking threads is about. You guys have a OT forum pretty much already set up the way I see it. __________________ <BR> <img src=http://velocity.isfaster.com/okinawa/okisil80/carsig.jpg> <BR>

I don't feel like sticking around this time (this happens what, every 3 monthes?) So I'll be back in a week when everyone dries their tears <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/dozingoff.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''>
