Since becoming a member on this site i appreciate all it has given me the good the bad and even the ugly etc.. Now with that being said i think it's very importantto create a "FAIL" section! With all the members we have and services offered speficially through this site i find it imperatave to also offer or dedicate a small section of this site to all the failures that occur on a daily basis from members, vendors, sponsors, people in general(Z,G related whether body, engine or mechanical) etc.. Simple if someone has a rant about a product, service, non sponsered shop, forum member or a failed attempt at a DIY for instance then they can simply throw it in the FAILED section for all to view so the same mistake does not happen twice.
IE:
xxx shop has x amount of failures
xxx vendor is known to be slow on shipping
xxx motor setup not recomended above xxx amount of power
xxx failed during track event

all potential failures. Thoughts?

 

Good suggestion my man, but realistically, probably won't happen...

 

Thx for the reply and i do understand why. But with that said we should be able to have a place in which we can post product, shop reviews and all other Z,G FAILS that are posted using forum rules. Strictly honest well thought out reviews which can save the community and others who may reach this site via google. I can potentialy see the new "FAILED" section as the biggest section easily generating the most hits.. just my .02

 

I could see that section getting closed within a day.

 

I hear ya' brutha. The problem that would come along with this type of section would be the negative conotation that comes along with it. I mean, it would basically give the "go-ahead" to create threads left and right, which would IMO would largely be comprised of opinions. Fights would break out left and right, as would flaming. How the system currently works, it generally disuades these kinds of negative threads from exploding amongst more positive thread content. Yet if one absolutely feels the need to post a "fail" or "call-out" thread, there are certain consiquences that may follow for doing so. Therefore the OP will think twice and post once, or at least we'd hope they would, saving valuable bandwidth. As the system is currently set up, we have the itrader rating system which is a foundation and database in itself for users to directly grade the amount of "win" or "fail" a vendor/user has to offer...

 

Gotcha. I won't push it as i haven't had any issues at all with the vendors and people i have dealt with thus far. Just a thought!

 

Good response. I concur.
