Yes but there are some people on this board, who %95 of their posts, have nothing to do with car audio, or even a useful post at all. Those really bug me...

Agreed. Nothing's wrong with a humorous or foolish post, but it's not cool for them to be the majority of your post content. No names mentioned here.

Glad someone agrees, well I don't think names need to be mentioned, if you're here enough, then you know the culprits.
There is another board I'm on, where there is a karma system. Someone makes a good post, you give them 1 karma, they make a stupid post, you give them -1 karma (in this board, only paid members get to do so, and karma is how people are ranked). Perhaps then it would deter someone from making stupid, useless posts, or maybe even make it so if they're so far under, you can limit their posts per day or something, I dunno.
Something like that would work good, although I'm not sure if that would be possible on this interface.

Johnny don't throw rocks when you live in a glass house...

I just went into your personal profile to analyze YOUR contribution to MEANINGFUL car audio discussion. [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img]

And the results, of your last 20 posts are:

13 - posts dealing with Dukk's Touque, Janets *****, how not to tow a car, etc.

6 - posts dealing with stuff you want to sell.

1 - glorious post dealing with what this board (according to the whining eminating from therein) would consider a meaningful contribution.

How about that?

Ok and were all my posts full of things not having anything to do at all with what the topic was? I don't think so.
So I'm not allowed to post in multiple areas of the forum?

You said:

So you are now contradicting what you said just a few posts ago..??

I don't think this karma thing would work for you at all...at least based on the above.

My point is this: Ask not what the Board can do for you, but what you can do for the Board. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Start a meaningful discussion, ask a question, or contribute your experiences about this awesome hobby.

But please, don't come on here whining about useless posts when you could be making a difference instead.

No I said not about car audio, or a useful post.
Meaning, making a post unrelated to the topic simply for the point of making a nonsense post, constantly.
What is really the point of that? Can you explain that to me?

Ok, I'll indulge you with an explanation:

It's called Winter hibernation in Canada... it has been proven to lead to post whoring...
