Moderators: A Request
To all Moderators:
Would it be possible for you to take a more active role in monitoring these forums? There are a lot of threads that get off the intended topic and then just become the equivalent of chat room conversations between a few people. I think it's great that this forum has become popular over the past 6-8 months; I remember when there was very little input on Solaraguy. However, there just seems to be a lot of superfluous postings that have nothing to do with the original topic on many of the car related forums. If people on this forum feel the need to just have a conversation, they should take it to the General Discussion forum or even to regular e-mail. Otherwise, I feel that the Moderators should remind people to stick to the topics or close the thread.
I realize that everyone has different ideas about the use of forums like this. Many people are probably very happy with the way things are. I'm sure that there are others, however, who would be happy if some of the "less useful" posts could be eliminated.
If this request proves to be unpopular, I won't mention it again. I just thought that, in the interest of retaining a wide variety of posters, this might make some sense.
All responses are welcome.
