I was just thinking of making a thread about this after seeing some threads locked because they werent "LSX based." Pretty lame if you ask me.

+1. Maybe the mods can take care of other sub-forums where it is needed instead of beating on the Multimedia section. Too bad there isn't another LS site worth a ****.

This is a useless thread, since this site was purchased, it became a dictatorship, where we are dictated too. You're kinda free to your opinion if they deem it not lockable, but the rule won't change.

^^Exactly. NOTHING around here has been the same since IB bought the board & those who say nothing has changed are full of ****. We lost ALOT of great mods who helped this board turn into what it did. IB dont give two ***** about us as individuals. This forum is just a money making machine for them.

I have been on here since 05' & I'm on here Monday -Friday all day while I'm at work. So I noticed changes where others dont that only log on for 30 minute or an hour a day.

As written, the rules say that only "LSx" material is to be posted. What about LTx stuff?
There is a LT1 section here. For that matter, there is a SBC / BBC section as well. I guess those
guys are second rate members and their vehicles don't qualify for the MM section. They get to
post in the Racer's Lounge. I agree with everyone else. Just my 2 cents though.
Sir, is that a Cobra I see in your sig? Lock it down!!! Lock this thread down!

The test will be when a sponsor posts a non-LSx related thread.

Yeah, that rule is pretty stupid. Not even SVTP is this bad!

Hey guys, let me try to explain it more clearly I guess.

That section is intended for GM LxX (Lt, Ls, Lx) topics only.

The Racer's Lounge is the dumping ground for everything else. I don't have a problem with non-LsX related threads, they just need to go in the right spot.

We are trying to keep all non-LsX stuff in one spot (Racer's Lounge) with all other portions of the site dedicated to their specialties in LsX related topics.


I will definitely try to be pretty lenient, and if it has a GM performance vehicle with a V8 in it I will keep it in here. But definitely anything non-automotive related will be moved to the racer's lounge.

This change had nothing to do with IB. This is just me enforcing a rule that has been long forgotten.

I was one of the mods who left when the whole IB shenanigan's went down. So the bottom half of your argument is kinda null and void.

Then you need to amend your rules stating this. Most people are going to read your "Section Rules" topic and see nothing about where to post their videos/pics/what-not and just assume that it would be ok to post it here. Hell, you may want to put "GM V8 ONLY" (or something along those lines) as part of the sub title for this section of the forums. In the end, when someone's thread gets locked down for all eternity without being moved (which it should be done this way in the first place instead of just straight up locking it) then they won't be pissed about it. Especially when you can just throw them a link to your rules. But hey, what do I know...

The moderator's here will be moving threads in the future.

Just using the straight up lock feature so people will notice it. As you can tell just by the number of views the Rule's Sticky at the top has, nobody pays attention if you just change the rules. They need to see the visible change, sadly.
