Poll on BAIC OT. Everyone please vote!
This is a poll in response to he seemingly overly high number of OT threads in the BAIC section. Additionally to a smaller degree threads that maybe do not belong in the regionals at all.
Please read each option careful and really think about which is the best not only for you, but other members as well.

Don't start with me.
Me posting pics of guns in your lame *** thread was the best thing to ever happen to that thread...
and posting pics of me in guns in the "POST PICTURES OF YOURSELF THREAD"? Oooooohhhh.... breaking the rules there.
I agree we all post OT stuff in BAIC, but you guys take it to a whole new level. I don't mean to sound like a dick or anything, but honestly, look at that damn xing lao lao... its leaking into every thread! You dont see me posting pictures of me holding a mini gun in every thread now do you?

seriously.
Whatever happened to just leaving sh*t alone?
Its not like there was drama in that thread or anything, it was just friends shooting the sh*t with each other.
If friends can't talk to each other in a thread with each other, whats the purpose of the forum?
I mean I know its here to help out, but its here to make/maintain friendships, right?

I can see the desire and maybe even a need to move some stuff, that's why we have a troll hall and dumpster forums.
But I still contend a regional forum needs some latitude and that the notion of there being some sort of "regional topic" criteria is nonsense.

I agree for the most part. But some topics clearly belong elsewhere despite where the OP put it. Just because a OP put a thread on best coilovers in engine tech doesnt mean it should be there. Just the same a thread for best track coilovers in regional is probably wrong, unless it is something like best track coilovers for laguna seca

not everyone has access to AIM @ work, whats wrong with a few threads dedicated to friends talking to each other?
