Default Would you like to see a pictures forum?

So there's a place to show off your rig and get together pics.

Yes, I would love to have a pic section. I just get tired of searching for pics and stuff...

When noobs come in, they can check out the pic section, and learn alot by that, and also get hooked.

You know.. It's only people who don't, can't or will never post pictures are always the ones who want a picture/post a pic of your ride forum or special thread. It's so they can feel like they are crawling or actually doing something.

Just take some pictures and post them... if they suck, they suck... If they are cool, then they are cool. No need to add worthless threads to please everyone here.



















Boy, after reading that I came off kinda like an ass..... 'eh... so be it

I think its a good idea. Everyone is always ripping on newbies for not using the search. Plus its just a good way to show off your rig.

So what does using the search function have to do with showing off your ride?

NOTHING!!

Learn to use the search function and life gets easy....

I know your not talking about me...

Lets see, someone new wants to get into it, and see what we do. You could either A: tell him search , or B: Let them look at the pics forum just like they can the video forum and see for themselfs without making a new "I wanna see your clod crawler" post.

To get back to the topic................pictures take up a lot of bandwidth, and bandwidth costs money.
I am sure if someone wants to make a large donation Jason would love to add that feature.

See, there are two different flip-off dudes... the red one which is bad, and the green'ish one which is a friendly one.


Is someone doesn't want to buy from me, then so be it. If you contact me about buying a product then you get A+ treatment.




Perhaps I just see so many posts like this one that just start to get old. If someone wants to see pictures of the crawlers doing what they do then all they have to do is go look in the Competition forum or Get Together forum... or if you're after videos, look in the video forum





I do know that lately I've been coming off as a asshat.... All I can say is that a new job, new business and no life tends to get to me.... but if you know me you'd be fine with my playful 'tude :P If I've affended anyone, then, well.... feel free to let me know. I get PM's from a few people on a daily basis about feeling like I'm picking on them Gotta have thick skin to live in the real world....

I guess I could sit back and not be a good particapating vendor/enthusiast of the RC Crawling world but I think I'm one of the more active vendor/enthusiast on this board and a couple others as far as giving helpfull answers to tech type questions reguarding crawler tech.




Plus, why isn't this posted in Chit-Chat? This has no tech to it but for some reason it's in a tech area of the board.

Don't feel bad toyo. Its been WAY too friendly around here lately. People are not posting by sections, searching, or even READING THE THREADS ON THE SAME PAGE TO SEE IF ITS ALREADY AN ACTIVE THREAD. And its really annoying. People just think we're all here to stroke their cock and answer their questions. No, we're here to post information, if you want the information, FIND IT. You don't need to keep asking

This was not directed towards the person who started this thread. I've just been annoyed by the lack of moderation here. Jason, give me mod permissions so I can start yelling at people and deleting their threads :P

As for the subject at hand, I agree with Toyo.

Yeah... Dave would clean this house up, hand him the controls! We should make a new forum for "The Band" and "Worthless". It'll show people that this board is a serious one and not a "love me 'n squeeze me" type place.

I am not asking for a place to upload pictures to, just saying it would be cool to have them all in 1 forum like the videos are. It doesn't use bandwidth anymore then if people posted them in other forums on this board.

Its posted in the same forum as the rest of the related forum posts and polls are, in the general forum.

And I know what you mean about the , I have been around long enough to see how you guys are, and I do it myself. I also know when your kidding around. But new people might not, and take it serious. Just something to think about. I have done a lot of retail myself, and know that the first impression is a lasting one.
