If it was locked the likes of Mojomick wouldn't be able to post useful tips  It's a reference section, so spam will be deleted without warning, as will any bum info. |

The idea (I think) is to keep it bare so that anyone looking for info doesn't have to wade through a dozen pages of "Your patio needs weeding" type stuff to get the information required. If you have comments (good or bad) or additional info, then according to the guidelines at the top of the page, start a thread in the Tech section along the lines of "Re. Crank seal replacement" or such like. HTH Mick. |

Why create work for the moderators? It's very easy to delete a post, "moderating" a board takes some effort. Educating peeps not to put shite in there in the first place is (long term) the easiest of all. Besides, we had exactly that in the last forum and not once was it used in 2 years. |

Wasn't going to switch it on, loads more work for everyone, and you will get people bitching and whining if after 5 minutes there post doesn't appear because we haven't approved it the very instant it appears in the Mods approval queue Will reserve this function for the Friday night pissheads who do my head in |

The rules for the section do tell you to comment in the tech section. If you think something is wrong, and it could be (especially if I am the author ), then flag it, but in the tech section or by PM.Cheers Nick |
