petition to auto remove (useless)threads

i think we should auto remove threads such as:

"which intake should i get"
"which exhaust should i get"
"what is a vb mod"
"what is a drop resistor mod"
"which springs should i get"

and all posts that would be answered in a 5 second google search, or a visit to http://maxmods.dyndns.org/

Anyone think of any others. i'm so bord of reading those damn threads. its not funny. i don't know how other members can't be either.

if anyone thinks i'm *****ing. i am.

peace,

Sometimes people just want others opinions or experience... something more than webpage on google... just skip them if you dont want to read them. But yes some are just annoying.

those threads wouldn't be so damn annoying if they didn't show up avery 5th thread. people are lazy and don't want to do their own research, they want somebody elses opinion on something they are looking to get. of course if 1 person likes something it doesn't mean that you will like it so I don't understand the point of those threads, people need to find the part they want and buy the ****in thing.

there should be a feature/button that requires 15 people to click/vote on to delete the thread.

yeah but its even more difficult if you have 15 intake threads spread out so you cant see more worthful threads, you wind up scanning the page and miss alot of other information or contributions we could make

why dont they add an opinion or thoughts link or something of the liike on http://maxmods.dyndns.org/? under each intake/muffler/etc users could just post what they have experienced and include links to pics/sounds clips...just thought of it....just an idea. that would give lots of opinions on each intake form people who have used them, in theory. probably get cloged full of **** though...

oh well.

The 15 ppl to vote to delete a thread idea is pretty good. Now only if it could really be implemented into the board.

Maybe we could go through and delete useless threads to save server space and exchange get our precious search back...

How about Torgus remove this useless thread ( because one has already started by Syrth 1 day ago and active) , and more members try to focus on helping others like this one :http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=302837

Now this fellow posted at 9:35 pm and no one tried to help him , but rather kept replying to this useless thread. Just food for thought.

I think if this web site was properly updated so that the search function could operate correctly we wouldn't have to deal with these topics so much. The web site has been a real mess for quite some time now and I am wondering when it will be back up to speed. I'm not criticizing, but I am tired of seeing the initial intro telling us to be patient while the server is upgraded to better serve the readers. How long is it going to take?! I'd also like to become a donating member, but we have been unable to do this for months now. Does anyone have ANY idea about when this site will be corrected? The connection speed here is so agonizingly slow it's ridiculous and I have cable.

Always starting shiet. Whats your problem? Seriously. Are there personal issues that you're dealing with? Are you showing off your shift **** to compensate for something lacking? You're holding a grudge of a thread you were owed on, and as I recall, all you could do was trash my car (which, had nothing to do with the thread topic.)

Again, being a hypocrit. You opt to "get rid of useless threads", but all you can do is post stupid comments about nothing relating to the thread.

Geez, let it go. If you want my Maxima emblem, you can purchase it at custommaxima.com and the razo shift **** is for purchase online as well. Seems like all you could talk about is my car.

End it? you are the one who had something to say...and wanted for me to see it so badly!!!

Grow up son.
