Llsoc

Simply researching another web-site, then reposting the info, isn't fair to the site that has to pay for it in the first place.

i'm sorry. i don't understand that. you search google.com, find a web page that answers someone on here's question and you post a reply on here... isn't it kinda the same thing? with LLSOC, you cannot even view the slightest bit of any LS forum on their website without being a member. And with the price of gas and "most" repairs being 1000 dollars plus, I need all the money i can get.

I don't see a problem w/ Boston's request. Half the time if someone asks for help on here people shoot back w/ a smart ass remark and bash them for not finding it in the past threads.

Maybe he needs to know ASAP to get his car back moving again and can't sit in front of the computer to look through that stuff. It was a simple request and if someone was able to accomodate him they should have.

Now go ahead and flame this thread for me offering my opinion.
 
Look at it this way.

If there was some content only available to 'Gold paid LvC members' on this site - and someone went and copied it and pasted it in the main free forum - would that be fair? to the other Gold Members or to LvC?

Especially if LvC had to pay for that content in the first place?

It's cool to ask for help - but I would personally frown on anyone reposting this type of content. There are two web-sites for a reason - they are different and unique. Many people belong to both.
 
It's after "Friday" and Boston has "loot" to get a membership on LLSOC. He can post his question there now. If we want to continue to beat him up on questionable judgment, fine. But as a practical matter, its a moot point.
 
People need to stop complaining about people complaining that they are offended. I paid for the LLSOC at one point and I would think it wasnt fair to have the ability to get that info from someone that can just post it to another free forum from one that others has to pay for. Besides, the people that are a part of LLSOC that are bitching about us beeing offended still didnt help him anyway so what is your points.

There isnt a single point people just feel the need to argue, thats all and that is F'in stupid. There is a political room here for people to argue, use it. I my self have tried and got my ass kicked is that what some are so affraid of?
 
Wouldn't it be cool if he wrote up a tech article on how to do this - with pics?

I agree it would be cool. :) I too am a member of both forums and agree fully that if you are using the free portion of the LVC forum, you must go along with Joey's wishes as to what will or will not be posted. Simple as that. If you are a Gold member you can debate your preferences with Joey and maybe convince him on your position.

You can view the news and announcements! :D You used to be able to view several boards free. Like Quik's recent Austin meet thread, that was open; but now it seems to be all locked down? Change in management maybe? :shifty:

Yes. In addition to funding certain features of the site, the annual fee keeps out the riff-raff (you know who you are!). This results in a different type of membership, which is why this club and LLSOC are different. I enjoy being a member of both sites.
 
I used to be an LLSOC member but I quit when I heard RBONES was joining... :D

Way to steal my idea and post it in another thread! Everyone should try to contribute to the tech articles as much as possible, this would result in a lot less threads.

What!!!:confused: Are you making a living by posting "ideas" on forums? Have we arrived at the point where we are accusing people of "stealing ideas"?
 
I was being sarcastic, I was hoping you would have caught on, I wasn't accusing anyone. I'll try to be more obvious with my sarcastic remarks(my mom loves them).

In reality 90% of what I say is sarcastic, that's just how I am. But, whether I say it or anyone else says it, LETS SEE A TECH ARTICLE, AND MUCH MORE OF THEM!
 
:rolleyes:

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: It is hard to tell emotions or sarcasm in a forum without using emotcons.:D Sorry. Getting a little touchy in my old age:D
 
You guys must have no life to be complaining about something this petty. I find it way more unethucal when someone asks for a carfax report. This thread is just juvinille.

1bad93, you taking time out of your fun-filled life to post that useless comment is "juvinille" (sp: juvenile).
 
That's a good point though. I'm surprised it took so long for someone to bring up the "free" carfax reports. That to me seems WAY worse than asking for help from a different site.

:confused: I don't think I understand this being unethical. If someone pays for access for a certain number of reports and is willing to use that access to get reports for others, how is that cheating Car Fax? When I was looking for a BMW M6 last year I bought reports. When I purchased the car I still had a couple of paid reports left over and provided reports to anyone interested on this and other boards.
 
Time to take this off-topic, GWL, you have an M6?!?! I LOVE THEM, the CEO of the company I work for drives one(company car). He pulled out in front of me one day and I drooled onto my lap when I heard it. I'd have to say BMW is my favorite car manufacturer by far.
