I haven't received my moderator paycheck, can you please look into that?

I must say I was a little shocked when I heard yesterday but I'm glad this happened. This was needed to improve the site and get it ready for the future. Thanks jonel, I know it was a tough decision but you did what was best for the site.

This has both upsides and downsides. I'm sure that the decisions made intended to scope out the best interests for the site. Anyways, welcome to the site.

Thanks for the welcome. If there is stuff that you feel should be cleaned up right away, let us know! We've done a lot of looking, but I am sure there are dark corners that we've missed

You can't curb all the immaturity, it's the internet and people can hide behind their keyboards. I do hope that the knowledgeable members that left due to immaturity, seemingly random bans, etc. return and IB puts checks and balances in place to ensure the ban hammer doesn't come down when inappropriate. I'll leave it at that.

That out of the way, thanks to Jonel for originally putting this site together which I have been a part of since mid-2005 when I first picked up my LS. Best of luck moving forward .

Finally, welcome to IB. Can't wait to see the changes you have in store and an increased server speed should be a welcome change. A renewed focus on the day-to-day activities of administering a site can only help build the community.

On a side note I just noticed Robb is located in Barrie. Good stuff, a fellow , !

Thank you for your welcome

Definitely keep us in the loop in regards to which things you absolutely don't want to see change, so that we can hopefully avoid creating undue stress for ya!

Thanks for the welcome! I really think we can help greatly with a renewed focus on the day to day goings on of a site this large.

Also, fantastic to see another Canuck on here!

The only thing that I can think of that needs to be cleaned up is the How To/ DIY section...I just think it could be a lot more organized...you know like depending on what year/ trim you have or something I don't know. But I think that should be cleaned up lol
