I have a great suggestion!

How about a forum, where when you make a thread, it actually shows up?



This is a joke.

Something has to be done about this.

Seriously.

Sites don't run like this.

Admins should take a look around into the forums. They arent seeing the big picture.

ya...and then it kept erroring out on me..
seriously though...only reason i put up with this BS is because there are so many knowledgable people on here and its a good place for knowledge and what not in the how-to section...other then that this site can...well...we all know hahaha


if there was a way to not have the site and admin auto kick my ass for it i would just mass post about everyone going to another site that works, and leave this one to waste cause NO ONE IS DOING ANYTHING TO FIX THE SITE!!!!!

That site is about 2 and a half times bigger in it thread and post count than here . Looks like membership is about the same. Is it really one of the bigger ones in the US?

This quote from another thread about the same issues sure shows trying to help the site by becoming a premium member is a waste of your hard earned cash!
