On the other hand, its IDIOTIC to confine them all here.

We dont confine all camaro etc threads to single topic threads on allfordmustangs.

Frankly, i think that is how it should be here about mustangs rather than forcing them all into one thread (which seems retarded to be honest).

However on a Ford forum, the threads usually have 10 or 15 replies and then they slide on and we move to another topic (is that not how it would go here)? At any given time there may be one or two or even three camaro threads up but its nothing thats an "issue".

I do suspect that for the reasons pointed out above there would be more than 2 or 3 at any given time (possibly 4 to 6) but i think the way it has been handled here shows extreme intolerance and a lack of willingness to discuss the competition. Something we rather enjoy on Mustang boards.

The way its done here..there are so many pages that one can not really discuss mustangs any more. (who wants to read 500 pages of topics NOT related to the particular thought you have that day before posting or discussing?)

Whats effectively happening here is that the threads/topics/posts are essentially being buried and swept away. You have heard of fanbois? I am afraid if this forum doesnt re-think how it handles these they may eventually have a reuptation around the world wide web as a "fanboi-site". Not A REP i would want ot have on my brands board and choice of place to discuss things. I would HOPE that C5 would RATHER be viewed by other car enthusiasts as a legitimate and regular car site??????? Wouldn't they?

Not name calling..just an objective thoguht of how people might see this.

Since I don't post in these threads, I'll throw my 2 cents in.....


If you don't like posting here, then hit the bricks.



To me Fanboi means a person that has no interest in the car that the forum is about, going to that forum and constantly posting about their car just to stir the pot......


Christ, let's just get the tape measure out and get this length contest settled once and for all......
