I'm great with supporting vendors posting their cars ... but in 'General' ... c'mon. There's an entire section dedicated for that. The content is getting hoochi-momma'd all up.

How long before this one is locked?

Why would he get some spare time for a legit question? Don't get me wrong - there are some great forum vendors - but they do have a for sale section. Maybe what they should do is have a dedicated vendor for sale section in addition to the current for sale section?

"The question" has been ASKED AND ASKED AND ASKED and ANSWERED MANY TIMES over. This isn't a new topic. The vendors supply the money to help keep this forum running and are allowed specifically to post their wares in the general threads. It is not an issue-- Period.

The OP is clearly taunting the mods on this one--he could have clearly sent a PM if he had a real concern and/or question.

I haven't seen the question before, and it didn't seem like a "taunt" to me. I understand completely regarding the vendors and money, that isn't the question though.

I can appreciate the pm aspect - and like I said, maybe there's room on the forum for a vendor only sales area, in addition to the existing for sale area. It would definately unclog the general area.

I dunno. If they did it every week, car after car, I'd say maybe there's an issue. But to highlight their wares? How many people on here, when someone gets a new item, ask for a lot of pics? A lot.

Take interiors for instance. How many ask for pics with all the stuff on/in the car? A lot.

And if it's a personal car, how many a week? 20? 10? 1? Not a prob for me. I just go past it.

Choice is (allegedly) a good thing: use your finger to hit the down button, be it the space bar or arrow or mouse wheel. Nothing wrong with being on Page 2 to find a thread you want to read.

actually this has been addressed so many times I have lost count yet people still think that posting this type of thread will do some good.

here is a very fine response to this issue as posted by Administrator savewave
