Suggestion: Split General Chat
I've noticed that there are relationship threads, bigbrother threads, lolpostcount threads, all intermixed with "what shall i do with my car", i brought this threads, megane sport threads, fiesta threads etc.
Was suggesting for the General Forums section:
Motoring Chat (post count enabled)
Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Any wheels by anyone general discussion.
Off-Topic Chat/General Chat (post count removed)
Discuss anything (within reason) and play nice with your fellow members here.
I know it could be a big change but feel that keeping motoring separate from "general chat" heads means that the motoring threads will have content and not just "get a saxo" quick replies slapped in.
The removal of the post count should also stop the amount of "spam" in the general chat too.
Anyway,
Rate/Slate
Discuss.

Then I fooked it up by posting my crash thread in General. Being picky, should be in Saxo Problems I guess.
Nah, Gen was right, would have sat nicely in the Motoring Section though.

I don't like forums that use it like that to be honest, looks cluttered lol.
I'm sure they have thought about it in the past though.

Except £7.50 cheaper.
My inspiration actually came from the zetec S owners brigade.
Their General Chat is full of pap.
Where as the motoring is full of genuinely thought provoking conversation.

Im not asking for a section for every subject.
Just that now the Saxo detail sections have been promoting, we don't have a general area for "non-shit-spam" threads that actually want answers.
Techy questions in General chat sink to the bottom unanswered.

General Car Chat under technical sections?
This can be for DVLA, Registrations, Car Tax, Car Service Costs etc etc?

I think that would be best and keep General Chat to general day to day shizzle.
