The Afterburner Tail Lights from Technostalgia(www.cool-leds.com) are really life savers and great safety devices.

Think about, how many times have you been behind someone who just slows down to turn and doesn't use their signal?

I'm was guilty of it on occasion, but since getting my Afterburners I use my turn signal every time cuz I love showing them off.

Warnings serve as a reminder to you of the forum's rules, which you are expected to understand and follow.

All the best,

What the ****???

I get a WARNING for posting my experience with Afterburner Tail Lights in the General Forum.

General Forum means just that, any topic in general.

Again, What the ****???

Does this really constitute the need for a WARNING???

It goes in Cosmetic. I got one of those also. Just make sure you post relates to the type specific forum.

The reason for this is it eliminates the over populated posts in one forum section. Otherwise you would never be able to read all the posts if they were all in one section.

No general means any topic that does not fit in any othrr subsection

This is just a formalized way for us to remind members to "look before you post".

Sorry for the inconvenience and/or shock of the warning.

That's correct. The description of the General Discussion forums read:

"General 5th generation Camaro topics not covered by other subforums."

If a member has been here for quite some time and have been quite active, he/she should already be well aware and have seen that threads made in the general discussion forum which is more appropriate for a specific subforum, are almost always moved out of the general forum.

Repeated posting of threads in the improper forum despite multiple warnings may result in account suspension. There have been previous notice made regarding this issue - http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=185962
