Tired of Newbies

I agree 100%. On Zilvia, an S/Z chassis forum I frequent because of my previous car, we get a lot of newbie posts asking the same questions over and over

I agree 100%. On Zilvia, an S/Z chassis forum I frequent because of my previous car, we get a lot of newbie posts asking the same questions over and over again.

"What wheel fitment do I need for flush-look?" Even though we have a 500+ page thread on it specifically stickied for all to see and look through.

"Which part is better, this eBay brand that cost $50 or *insert reputable brand* that costs $500?"

Many questions can be answered by searching the forum, or worse case scenario *gasp* Searching this almighty thing called "Google". Surprising how strange it is that nobody's ever heard of this before. But it's available, free and seriously will answer 99% of your questions. Damn those 1%-ers.

But seriously on this forum, there are some threads that make me scratch my head. I'm not going into specifics but off the top of my head, some people start threads that should have been knowledge about cars in general, not specifically to the 370Z.

This is the reason for my low post count, because I know how to search and keep my posting to a minimum. The difference is that on Zilvia, they don't tolerate the newbie questions and the threads get locked, the OP gets pissed, hates the forum, and leaves. This forum is MUCH more tolerant towards newbies and embraces everybody.
