I know its blasphemy! Now im all lonely in the tech side
I guess it had something to do with the new forum layout and how everything got merged. This thread is now in talk, not tech. I don't really care much. It is a thread about my progress on the car I'm building. I didnt see 'build thread' listed as an option to choose. Blame Noobz!
If there's any blaming to do,.. blame the implementation of the "progress thread" on me.
I think it was last year when I jumped this guy for posting a bunch of pics that he took of the work, and progress "his man" was doing/making for him.
Anytime a shop is involved in the "build" pretty well negates the benefit to the community.
An example of that for me is simple:
Dude #1: I just made these subframe connectors, I made them outta 1x2 .125 wall mild steel....and now I'm gonna weld them in,...here are some pics:
*build
Dude #2 I just got my car back from the shop after they welded up the MM SF connectors for me, here are some pics:
*progress
I can see how having to decide which thread to bounce from tech to talk can be a chore for the moderators,..
And that problem compounds especially as they evolve like this one Scotts has,......for the first year(s) it was a
build thread, w/ all kinds of cutting, welding, scraping, plumbing, painting, fabbing up body rollie carts and flippy over thingys.
But now that he is posting pics of the nice shiny s hit that he is simply bolting on, it has become
progress.
Personally,..I prefer talk to tech for these type of threads. Leave tech to the guy trying to figure out why his EFI junk wont run.
