Provide VIN for Forum posting or membership

2010SS2SS · 12-13-2011, 10:52 AM

So tired of the non Camaro owners posting their no it all comments on a car they don't even own and or have probably never driven. This goes for all the Challenger/Mustang owners that post or troll on the forum just to be a P.I.T.A. Why not make it a requirement to provide VIN or ownership info to be a ble to post?

That's just dumb. I was a member prior to owning a camaro.

I've had Camaros all my driving life (over 40 years). Currently own a 1st gen. and sold my 2010 a few months ago. So your saying I'm not qualified to post here?

Yeah, I signed up for info and to ask questions prior to buying. Probably too much trouble to setup the site to validate not only that it's a legit VIN but that it hasn't been recycled etc... and what about couples sharing the Camaro but with different screen names etc... just makes no sense, this is the internet not some elite private club.

i was a member before i came an owner on these forums. no problem with that at all.

SSGUNNER · 12-13-2011, 11:02 AM

There's tools and trolls everywhere. While most of the Mustang/Chally owners that troll here know about as much as cars as their brands commercials tell them, they at least provide some balance in the forums and realizing that the Camaro isn't the only car on the road.

I'm a member now, and I don't (as of this date) own a Camaro. I have in the past, but not currently. I will eventually own a Gen5, but right now the financing is not in the cards for me. I come here for information, answers and camaraderie of fellow enthusiasts. And to know EXACTLY what I want and what I don't want when I go place an order.

I contribute based on my general mechanical knowledge of certain things that stay the same no matter what the vehicle. Anything specific to the Gen5 Camaro, I avoid commenting since I don't have one.

So should I remove myself from the membership since I don't have a VIN?

I dont think this idea was that well thought out

Sounds like a bad idea to me.

Glad that you aren't my grumpy neighbor.
