Pistonheads the future

[Stuart J]

There are so many threads on other forums saying how PH just isn't what it used to be and how chavfantastic it's becoming . I appreciate there are now commercial pressures but interested to hear the thoughts of others on how the original spirit and ethos can be in some way maintained before it's diluted and lost forever

I'm guessing you mean in terms of the website rather than the forum?

If the forum dies no one will come here and the website is doomed anyway !!!

A secret forum for users who've been on here for over 6 years...

Unlikely to happen as I can't see it fitting a commercial model

I'd love an ignore/block user feature, that works like the block function on FaceBook

That would be excellent, can it be done in a way that the person knows someone has blocked them, they don't need to know who has blocked them but if it were possible those who post reams of utter ste and bks may discover people really don't want to read it and they may just disappear back into the sewer they came from.

Also please no more advertising popping up, really distracting

Would I be correct in assuming posts are being deleted as the forum needs to be tidied up for commercial reasons.

If a post is deleted can the masses be made aware of it so we know how heavily it's being moderated. Simply leave the persons name etc , remove text and put post moderated and a reason against it. I've been on a forum which was moderated for commercial reasons as a manufacturer took an interest. Wasn't good , hence my questioning it here

No response to what I believe that posts gave been deleted

Rule one, we are your customers , you can only be here with the consent of the majority, that's us. Tread carefully or you will be something people reminisce about after it's demise Keep it free and open Please!!!
