I usually go straight to the new posts, and browse, but if I have a question, I'll got straight to the forum that deals with it.

Isn't HELP and EMERGENCY the same thing? Also you have OTHER listed twice - is there a difference? You might be splitting the votes on these two. I voted for HELP (instead of EMERGENCY) and the first OTHER.

i don't like how our classifieds are set up.

i wish it was PARTS and VEHICLE's by Gen.
not 2~3 different sections of parts for each Gen.

that way, you can click on the classifieds daily, and see what the 3rd gen guys were selling.

on some motorcycle forums, i just book mark the classifieds, and that is all i look at. ( in case something is cheap)

i needed a $150 part for my truck, found it from a dealer for $120,
then it came up on the random pics on the left side for $60 in our classifieds.

but it was in one of the subfolders i had not looked at.



here's the best way to surf a forum daily:
click NEW POSTS drag that screen to the upper left of your screen.

then RIGHT click and OPEN IN NEW WINDOW each thread you want to read.

that way you keep your location in the new threads listing.

and, without the "mouse over" of the subject line showing the first line of the thread, it's only way to see what is in some of these posts. i think some of our forum members intend to use mysterious subject lines so they won't get any response.

Wink You guys sure are funny!

*Disclaimer: "Dumbest poll" option not original to poll, added by admins!*

Dumbest poll you ever saw eh, I thought it would be great market research! You guys sure know how to make a guy feel welcome! What can I say, I had nothing better to do.

I am finding it interesting to see the highest traffic areas based on users.

Besides I love polls!

The thing I love about this site is the conversation that questions, polls, comments, and everything else that sparks a conversation. The dialog between CTD fanatics is great. Any time we expand the the interaction between us I enjoy it, so there!!!

HAPPY VOTING!!

D-C out!

Well I guess I didn't think through the the last other, I had hoped that it would be self evident having it separated by the "ALL of DTR ( I go everywhere)" option. The second "Other ( I threw it in just in case)" was for guys who always say they don't vote because there is no info or options in the poll that pertain to them. So it is an "OTHER" that is for any option not listed, simple enough for ya? DTR has an Other forum, it is the first in the list!!!



If the "Emergency" and "Help" are the same forum, I am sorry I have never visited those forums.

All of them, since I am still a relative newbie, I neeeeeddddd INPUT!

After I feel comfortable, I will probably only haunt the 2nd gen, general and other though.

No one told me this place needed its own addiction support group!

Yup, pretty soon you will be glued to the screen with blood-shot eyes posting the "dumbest poll ever!"

Yeah it's pretty easy to become a DTR junkie! There should be a timer that counts down as soon as you log on. Once that timer reaches 0 you get booted off for the rest of the day. The debate is... what should the timer be? I think 5 hours is fair. What do you think?
