i have no objection to that .....and in retrospect sometimes the icons really do fit , but it is also ok to silently read

What about grouping some specific years (78-82) and then leave the performance, tune-ups, repairs, "general" all within the year group. As much as I do enjoy reading about my "other lust" the '69-70's, I really focus on the latter C3's. Just my 2¢ worth.

Default There’s a new law enforcer in town….and he’s half man, half machine!

Time for the return of ROBODEP!!!!

I've already dropped dimes on a bunch of threads that are posted in the tech section that don't belong there.

Looks like we have a bunch of SLACKERS posting in here now. Gotta tighten them up.

C3 Tech/Performance
Internal Engine | External Engine | Tech Topics Only | Performance Results

Now where in there does it say to ask about how wide a wheel will fit on a C3 or advice on what color purple paint to use on the dashboard???? NOWHERE is where. There are specific sections for paint and wheels and radios and all that other manure that is beig dumped in tech section. USE THEM!!!!

Now if the REAL ROBODEP returns, he will have powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. As in the power to DELETE a thread and not bother to move it where it belongs. You slackers that are posting ***** nilly...BE WARNED!!!

BTW...***** Nilly drives an L-88 and he KNOWS where you're supposed to post.

I think general should be for whatever anyone wants to talk about. And I don't think people should just read silently. It is a forum, I or anyone else should have just as much right to say something as the next person, or post nothing but icons I support and buy stuff from the businesses that advertise here, so what is wrong with that. Lets just keep it fun like it is

You owe me for getting the tech section created.

Big time.
Me too!

I had the same problem. I think when they updated the site and split the forums if you went with your old links you still got the page that showed only C3 general which directed you to tech. It fixed itself after my computer got struck by lightening and I switched to a new computer. I think if you get rid of your old links and type in corvetteforum.com it will get you to the correct page that the C3 pulldown will give all the C3 forums. Or you could just destroy your current computer and get a new like I did. This could be all wrong because I'm not verry cumpewter smart, but I don't have that problem anymore.

Sometimes when I think I am in General even though I selected general from the pull down - I end up in Tech. What's up with that?
