Changes in the Jeep forums... - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Ok, I've made another change. I think this change will make everyone happy. The goal behind the changes are to create a place for everyone. The hard core Jeep guys are always complaining about how gay the Jeep forum is because of the dumb questions. Well now there is a place for dumb questions, so you shouldn't have to deal with them anymore. These changes were suggested to me by several people from very large companies in the Jeep industry. Our Jeep forum is only our 4th largest forum, and it should be without a doubt our largest forum. I know some of you don't like growth, but growth brings new ideas, and a hell of a lot more tech (and newbie questions, granted). So let me know what you think.

post count is imaterial anyway - it that specific post is worthwile and has good tech - is anyone going to care what the post count of the guy who made the post is?

YMMV

Nice, now that it looks like there is going to be a jeep in my future. Just until I can afford to build the runner I want. I've got a '78 CJ lined up for $500.

Been a member here for a while, just read, because of the additudes of some! I'll become a paying member now and help out. Not that the hard core guys are total asses, just too much testosterone!!

Glad you did this!
