In order for you to get the rank of Member, you are required to contribute a little more to the forums, such as replying to forum threads and making an effort to contribute to the site. Once you have contributed to the site to an acceptable standard, you will then get the rank of 'Member', and you can then post up something for sale.

But if you only want a custom title, then you can do something to benefit the site and I will provide you with a custom title!

Ie: do a tech writeup or contribute to the knowledge base ETC

Another handy feature I discovered:

If you are too lazy to click the submit/post quick reply etc button whenever sending a PM, replying to a message or editing a message, just press ALT-S....it does the same thing :)

hmmm yeah i just noticed it today, but do you really want to encourage EVERYONE to post their specs, u dunno who is viewing the forum. look whats happening with the cops dicking the idiots on nissansilvia.com (from specs posted online), do we really want that to happen here?

if it wasnt for that i'd say it was a great idea, i just dont want ppl gettin in trouble for sharing information about whats under their hood.

hey wyn ... just a thought about the site...
you have done a greate work trying to keep up with everything else

I have an idea for the site which might be a bit useful for everyone... here it is

If say Me, reading some thread ... and one of the users adds a reply to that thread then the whole thread refreshs the page so it can show the last reply that was written while reading the thread.. dont know if its been discussed or not but im just throwing it out :) ... hope it helps or adds it to your list hehehe

I dont know if you get it but let me know :p...

It will/does. Double click next to the thread title when you view it in the forum not when you are in the thread. If you are still having difficulty PM me and I can do it for you.

It should. Can someone try editing a thread in the WTB section and post back? Unless the thread is VERY VERY old......you should be able to.
