Hey guys.
Just want to post is up to let everyone know that there is some changes going on around here. Some of you have caught wind of it, some have not.
This thread is just to let everyone know that there will be threads that are going to move and many sections that are going to disappear.
It is no secret that forums are dying out and until recently, we had no activity. There was a time when we wouldn't even see a post in the busiest thread (what are you doing/did you do today) for a few days.
What we are trying to do is to dump the sections that are not getting any traffic or are barely alive (sections like the regional, photography, diy, etc). Sections like the build threads are now going to be in the generation specific forums, not just a section for the builds/show your ride. They will be mixed in with tech to help make this place at least look like it is a little more active. DIY isn't going away, but they will turn into stickies at the top of the gen sections and will move into an archive type position.
So keep in mind that some of your threads might be moved. We aren't deleting them, they are just getting a new bedroom in the house so you might have to do a little digging to find them again until you find out exactly where they have landed. Also, we aren't deleting the threads that are in the sections that are being removed. They are just being removed from view but will still show up under searches.
I am locking this thread from public posting for now as it is more of an announcement and a heads up than it is a discussion. If you have any questions please shoot one of us mods a PM.
