Color Scheme - easy on the eyes
Beginner regulations - keeps out the riff raff
Rules (or rather the enforcement of rules) - so many forums don't enforce their own rules. thus, chaos ensues.
Respect - whether it be for different platforms or just being courteous to newbs, it really helps breed a sense of...
...COMMUNITY! - Nothing like the CB family. Ya'll are great! seriously..

It isn't something on this forum but something I would love to see is a like button on posts. So many times I wish I could just hit like when someone posts something that I like or agree with rather than having to actually quote them and and say hey I like this. Also with a like button instead of the rep system people can't use it to flame people.

like everyone says the color scheme is great, the way the letters pop out from contrast to the black background make reading alot easier. other forums are blinding at night with white boxes. cd5tuner hurts my eyes.
one thing i'd like to see that would help a ton, is some more focus on the search system. atleast in the DIY section. IIRC the thread maker can only add 5 tags (maybe my membership is just limited). personally i think that's good from my experience of "hashtag whoring" from social sites, you end up linked to something not even related just for the sake of views. i would make it where, through approval of moderators, that mods themself can add additional tags that are suitable to make searches more relevant. i see how this can be bad though, thread creation in beginner's sec are probably in the millions so the results would be plenty. that's why something more prestigious and non-question related like the DIY sec would be nice.
also to add that when a useful DIY is made that the images be stored on site so that if the original source somehow gets deleted by creator we can still view it. i've came across on cd5 where Deeve had a battle/misunderstanding with a member and he deleted his post. everyone is now suffering lol. maybe that might be pushing copyright stuff, morally not legally since we still have freedom of internet til the gubmint strips us of that, but still.
probably bandwidth problems are restricting this.
seems like i talked more about suggestions sorry. however i do love the hospitality of the site. a bunch of members that are easy to get along with. probably comes along with the chassis we're attracted to. if it was a bunch of ego'd out mustang owners on a forum all it would be is a muscle match (no offense to owners). but the members are really helpful whether it be info giving or through generous sales in classifieds. i only feel bad for the new members gettin flamed by the search nazis.RIP '91 LX.

Originally posted by deevergote View PostOne of my favorite features (and one that we strive to maintain) is the format of the Members' Rides section. A feature that was put in place long before I was even a moderator. I love that at a glance, you can see who owns what. It also makes searching that section very easy!
Otherwise, I didn't think this place had any features that haven't been done before. Obviously different owners will have different ideas about keeping things under control, but that's not a "feature" . The people here are the best though.

Have you thought of using the GMail API for email? It's safe it I think it would work really well hereThe CB7 Collector.Team Kindred Impulse Member #392 LX Coupe F22A12013 Toyota Corolla S92 EX Sedan F22A1Originally posted by deevergoteDo you really need to make a thread asking if having your car like this /---\ will cause uneven tire wear? Try walking like that for a few weeks and see if your shoes wear funny! (hint: they will.)

I really wasn't looking for suggestions on how to improve things... just comments on existing features that you like. Suggestions for improvements is kinda, ya know, the opposite of that!
I know things aren't perfect. Some of that is due to the original design, some of it is due to the limitations of the software, some of it is due to the limitations of the site's owner I don't want to risk the stability of this forum by adding a bunch of junk to it. Also, storing ANYTHING on our server (images especially) will drastically increase the bandwidth usage... which will drastically increase the cost of operating this site.
Originally posted by CyborgGT View PostThe format for the titles is actually something that has annoyed me when I go searching for specific ideas. It makes sense to require the member's name, but I'd rather it be _____'s Coupe or _____'s Wagon, since there's no significant difference between the model years. It'd be way too much of a hassle to fix though, so don't mind me.

Though aside from some body mods, most ideas can translate well to any of the three.
