Formal Request: Fail Factor returned
 
That section was awesome. Keeps the place in line, amuses members, and keeps BS out of tech searches.

Formally request it be returned.

This I can definitely agree with.

leatherface24 06-30-2010 05:14 PM

I have a feeling this section was going to cause some legal issues in very short amount of time. Probably better off without it.

Legal issues wat?

Srsly, if not this, at least a chat room. Something.

kotomile 06-30-2010 05:21 PM

Well y8s doesn't like it so I guess that's that.

y8s 06-30-2010 05:52 PM

my opinion seems to only have random effects on administrative changes depending on:

a) how much of a beer braineack has had

b) how much I've helped braineack with his car

c) how many items I have on loan to braineack at any given time

d) if i am a good listener when braineack's car is broken and he's not too upset about it



he is fairly autonomous when it comes to forum administrativia barring rick's involvement due to flow of cash.

if you REALLY want it back, have one of these sent to his house:

One of those would nicely fill out my collection of lenses, can I have one too?

johnmatt 06-30-2010 06:09 PM

I was wondering what happened to that section. I just thought I failed too much to find it again. Go figure I failed about failing

Nagase 06-30-2010 06:17 PM

Dear Braineack,

Do not have any lenses so am sending you this drawing i did of a spider instead. Value the drawing at $233.95 so trust that this settles the matter.

Regards,
Nagase

FRT_Fun 06-30-2010 06:26 PM

No one wants a 7 legged spider gtfo.

fooger03 06-30-2010 06:42 PM

sry, i dont have the cash flow for a fisheye zoom...

but i do have a 70-200mm f2.8 for nikon af-s.....

y8s 06-30-2010 06:59 PM

fisheyes are for suckers.

and 233 might cover his circular polarizer.

chicksdigmiatas 06-30-2010 10:47 PM

Don't put yourself down. :(

It's good to know we have someone on the board who knows what to do in case we need to use vegetable oil as brake fluid, or install soviet engines in 50's American cars...

Oooohhh burn he got you.... Wait what?

oilstain 07-02-2010 09:25 PM

Damnit, I was only half way done reading the threads that were there last weekend, went to VA for a week, came back and *poof* it's gone. That's sad, I thought that the forum was a great idea.

FRT_Fun 07-03-2010 02:35 AM

How bout fail factor sub section in 1337 speak.

WonTon 07-03-2010 03:31 AM

how about a mini forum and call it (Rape Camp) <<<<<< this would be were all noob will go, let them loose on their mini boot camp.. just have it set up like a real forum and have a couple of us be mods to that section? i put myself up for election. and when we feel necessary we can alow the crap to be amongst alot of the gods that control this wonderful place.

Why? If it's that or nothing I choose that.

fooger03 07-03-2010 11:50 AM

im on a local forum here. Upon registering, new members are only allowed access to their version of the 'meet and greet' subforum. to get into the rest of the active forum community, you have to post an intro thread there., have a bit of discussion on your ride, and get 5 'rep' points from other members. once that happens, newBs are allowed full access to the boards. I'm not sure how common this practice is - ive only ever seen it on this particular forum.

unfortunately, it also stymies new membership from potentially valuable members, keeps 'outsiders' from being able to learn, and stops intelligent outsiders from being able to propose solutions to problems if they're not willing to go through the nutroll...

johnmatt 07-03-2010 01:47 PM

I think that a pretty decent idea but I never view the meet and greet section so I wouldn't be any help there. Also a good point of people not wanting to go through the noob BS

FRT_Fun 07-03-2010 01:50 PM

I could see that... as long as they are able to view... not post, but view the entire public forum.

Leet section is for members only, noobs aren't members, therefore: dumb idea

I mean put the noob threads in a sub section of the 1337 forums so just the members can see. Ya know, like once the thread has run itself out and is locked... I know the noobs can't post in there anymore, but we can still laugh about it.

Obviously the Fail Factor forum was best... :/
