dunno if this has been put up or not before.........
we have a TON of collective automotive knowledge on this bbs. enough that i think it may warrant it's own forum in here, for anything from just general automotive chat, right down to automotive advice.
there's a lot of us that don't mind....and even enjoy trying to help out fellow ah gamers with their cars, and having a forum for just that seems to be a good idea.
what say you all?

Vroom! Vroom! Beep beep! Putt putt putt...

Aye.

I'm a bit of a shade-tree mechanic. I'd like to have a forum like that to bounce some questions off the experts here on AH.
So, +1

I don't really think HTC wants to have a thousand sub forums as they have stated in the past...it would be neat, but if you give 1 subforum requests will be pouring in for many others.

I agree with this point, however all I ever see is knowledgeable people on this topic helping other players of this community with advice, constructive suggestion and the benefit of their experience which is genuinely helpful to all and in the long run helps save people money and time. It's a great thing and probably more directly useful / beneficial than the AH classified section.

Trust me, I +1 this. I think the only way to do this and be organized is to create a main forum and each subforum under it. I don't know if they will go for it, however. Possibly if they gave certain people forum-specific moderator privileges, but I know they like to do things in house.

Yes. I agree it would be jolly decent of them to provide it. A worthy request and suggestion however :salute

you ever googled a simple problem? you find much more wrong stuff than right stuff. i think that most of the people in here that ask advice know that there's about a half dozen of us that they can trust.
i also work on cars all day, 6 days a week.......but there's a difference. helping people with this stuff is enjoyable....to me at least.

I think it would be a liability issue for HTC to have a there dedicated to auto repair. In a sense, they look like they approve the advice given by opening the bbs section for it. That's why I don't think you will see a thread for auto repair or anything else out side of the game for that matter. They try very hard not to even make "recommendations" for things outside the game like computer parts and such. All to avoid someone coming back them with "well someone at HTC said that's what I should do!"

THAT is something i hadn't thought of, and makes a lot of sense.........

Surely a simple disclaimer would take care of that?

They have a disclaimer on the "Aces High Classifieds" thread, but also watch it closely so that it only pertains to flight game stuff. With the company being small and the main livelihood of those people, can you blame them for trying to protect themselves as much as possible? And what better way to protect yourself than not to allow it in the first place.

there's plenty of automotive bb's out there. no need to have a separate forum in here, it has nothing to do with aces high. I am pretty sure we have plenty of attorneys, accountants and tax preparers, and why not add a forum for them too?

i was thinking of this as a good idea. but at the ripe old age of 50, i still sometimes fail to think things all the way through. what fugitive has stated is something i hadn't thought of. and in todays environment, htc could end up in a world of poop. i wish it weren't so, but that's the way things are today.
it didn't hurt to suggest it though.

Why segregate?
