The videos are becoming a nuisance, Once in awhile they are really funny and related to the thread. Many members are now complaining about them. I really don't want to over moderate the site, so I am going to give Andrew his own forum "Andrews handpicked video selections and political commentary" All will be free to post in there, videos related to the thread they are in will stand, but most of the rest will be moved or deleted by moderators. Hopefully, the crazy videos will just migrate there and there will be no need to moderate at all. Thanks for your understanding.

Really?? Members complaing about videos? They must be 1.6 drivers :banghead:

Caesar / Jim

Many categories have been combined based on your suggestions, not much of the structure was changed. Please look around, any questions please ask.


Excellent job of rearranging the forums - it mirrors the layout of spacmiata.com using the newer, better software. :clap:

Did I mention that I like the emoticons? :thumbsup:

Counselor, you might want to figure out what the caps lock key does...

You can pass the Bar but the forum stumps you? Really? :rolleyes:

That's a good suggestion. Let me see what we can come up with this week, we are going to install an update in that section and it may be a good time to address it.

All the stuff on the right is longer down the page than the left.
Can well get bullets for each SCCA and NASA to even it up and make it easier to read?

Mike
I hated the site for awhile when we switched, many did/do. But now many would shoot us if we went back as they are now accustomed to the better software and all the features that this site has that the other didn't. I am trying to make the new site "look" and function more like the old site while maintaining the all the bells and whistles of the new site. Give the site a few weeks and you will be flying around like you were before. If you have specific problems or issues, please let us know, we will try and walk you through them. I t is my site and most of the members know it better than me :)

Mike, you seem to be having trouble with responding to posts. After you press "Reply", scroll down and add your comments below the quote. If you like I'll go back and clean up the posts where you've forgotten to enter anything but the quote.

Thank you for your concern, I just don't like the site as is now..here are some of the reasons:


1. The old site was so easy to navigate..

2 .There were so many people who cotributed to each post,

3. The sections of the country was separated so you knew immediately where to look for interesting posts.

4. The categories of subjects were listed separately..and on and on and on...why not just admit you made a blunder and try the old site for a while and see what happens.You had a gold mine and never knew it Just my 2 cents which is usually worth a lot less these days
