    just my bit on the recent changes in the garage forum

    admin is putting a lot of time and effort into the changes in the garage forum which is for the better for every one and the forum in general, when the changes and maintenance in the garage forum are finished, the mods and the rest of us regulars who care about the future of DK will be keeping a very close eye on what is posted/downloaded etc.

    I hope your right about the changes being better for every one and the forum in general, as this is a very good & informative site. I can see people maybe going elsewhere (if there was another site anywhere near half as good as this one!). All the best one's I've found since being ex-communicated from the garage section are in polish! Which makes them good for software but without the information on how to use them from other English speaking people, makes it a difficult long winded google affair!

            Yeah that is a shame that people always think about themselves trying to make money off of something that was given to them. Like I always say 1 bad apple spoils the bunch!

              Put it this way, i found DK by accident, followed a certain thread for months, didn't go anywhere except this one thraed, i leeched and leeched
              as much as i could (rapidshare links)

              Then one day a problem was found, this was sorted by a file, only members, could download, so had to regestar, now less than a year later
              , been banned and boll**cked by admin SEVERAL times, i'm still here

              long live dk

                That's your opinion, and your entitled to have your opinion, but I couldn't disagree more.

                The reason I came to this forum was the garage. With this section made unaccessible to me, the only option I have on DK is to pollute the "general chat" with my political-incorrect opinion.

                That's not a good forum for me, when I want to do smalltalk I'd find myself a chatroom!

                So; Anyone knows a forum to chat about car-techniques?

                    Let's put it this way:

                    It's not public to all users any more, you have to earn your right to access it. There are loads of (closed) thread about this subject, I suggest this one

                      the thread is accessible to everyone, all you have to do is make 1 post in the introductions, thats it!! ease peasy, but at the moment their working on the garage section to make it better so be patient

                        If that's the case, why don't the say this (in simple English, like above, so even I can understand) eq. here
                        AND:
                        Why are there 17 viewers at the moment who CAN view, I guess? (General Automotive Help and Discussions (17 Viewing))

                        (little update: I've introduced myself when this still was possible, but can't access the garage)

                          I've been trying to avoid being pulled into this.

                          People need to learn how to read all the posts in a thread, especially the stickies (listed in red). All the information needed to understand what is happening is in there, waiting for you to read it.

                          The reason there are people in the Garage section is simple. Not everyone is barred. A level of participation was agreed upon by Admin & Mods. Those people below that level were restricted access.

                          Although some may see this as unfair, the decision was made. A community only exists if all give what they can. A lot of hard work is put into every thread in every section. To protect that hard work restrictions have been applied. This isn't stopping the effected people from contributing to other sections.

                          All those individuals that seem to have crawled out of the woodwork since the restriction should be more constructive. We all know how much you need access, but until you start to join in with the rest of us...nothing will change.

                          So, stop complaining & posting useless oaths to share more. Participate, join in, have fun... Things may change, but life will always move on.
