Memorial Forum [Archive]

I see alot of fellow members and friends passing away. With such a large site and memberbase, it comes as no suprise a friend is taken from us everyday. As unfortunate as it is, it is a part of life. It is good to remember these friends, and honor them, as it is what they all deserve.
I was thinking that maybe TR could add a Memorial forum, for lost friends, family, members, or indivisuals that have had a positive impact on the community, racing scene, or fellow members.
This forum would be a place to reminisce about memories, good times, and say anything (non offensive) that may want to be said. This would be done so in a mature manner, and all members who cannot abide by this will be dealt with accordingly.
I think this wold be an awesome and deserving addition to Tampa Racing, site many of us love and use EVERYDAY.
If you are interested in this, post up why you agree.
Thanks for your time guys, be safe...

mods, please consider this...admins too...

Its doesnt seem right to see someones memorial info next to a thread talking about some kid whining about getting a ticket, its kind of asinine if you ask me.

AND WHY WAS MY POLL REMOVED FROM THE THREAD???

I definitely agree.

All of the members lost recently,and the past year(s) were all avid about the site.They went to meets,and are supporters of TR.

I say yes,all the way..

20 people say yes to a memorial forum and 0 people have said no. This is the most worthy thing anyone on TR has ever suggested this needs to happen.

I miss you Pabs!

yeah, angela, i dont believe humor is a needed thing in a forum honoring and commemorating people who have passed away. The idea of this forum was to remember these people in a dignified, honorable manner, not a comical or cutesy one. I believe Memorial Forum or Memory Lane or something to that effect would be just fine...

TR Grave Yard is fucking stupid.

I agree,I hear grave yard,and think of old post for some reason.

I never wanted to call it that, thats just what it reminded me of, like an online grave yard where users can "visit"

and there was no humor related to this. stop being dicks about it.

BlackWind

ok angela, were moving on now...

if you dont think we should have one, awesome. Its your opinion your entitled to, but share with us why...

Why has this not been created yet, Mods, admins anyone out there?

03-16-2008, 09:23 AM

thats why we need more people to see this and offer some kind of input, whether it be positive or negative...

Has there been an administration response to this?

dk1989

03-20-2008, 08:16 PM

^Sadly not.

AcidiCyn_

03-20-2008, 08:35 PM

Terrible.
They have a 'Help TR Section" and don't check it?
13 days without an administrator looking at a thread to 'help' (suggestions) TR is ridiculous.
Correct me if I am wrong, but Administrators are supposed to check their responsibilities daily ;)
I would think this 'section' of TR would be a priority.

BlackWind

undoubtedly running tr is probably a task bigger than we can understand, but at the same time, this subject has arisen a few times now, and ive yet to hear anything from anyone. It would help if more people would post links to this in there signatures, it takes fiive seconds to do and it would help make this forum a reality....

I say a big yes to this.

70-8 for yes... i voted yes... also even though i dont have a whole lot of experience in being a mod i would love to help mod this section...the memories of friends and family should be cherished after their passing...i know personally my grandpa has been dead almost a year and not a day goes by that i dont think of him and there are people on here that have passed away almost a year or more ago and every now and then u will see the thread come back to the top...so why not make a section for them... i mean most the bike forums im on have a riders down section so why not a memorial section for TR. rep for the idea

03AcuraCLTypeS

04-07-2008, 05:01 PM

u know what now that i see how old this is im not going to let this die...they can ban me for all i care...im reposting a new thread in pitroad let them move it ill jsut make another TR is too big a community to not remember the friends we have lost... not only should we have a memory lane out of respect but we almost NEED one...

dk1989

I'm liking the subsection idea.

04-16-2008, 03:09 PM

yaaaa thats my idea! :lol:

but in all seriousness I think we should have a subjection, or at least instead of the cars at the top of the page, have ALL the well known members that have passed away, up there as a tribute

AcidiCyn_

04-16-2008, 03:27 PM

Why would they make a whole new forum anyways? I always saw this idea in my head as a sub-forum.

dk1989

04-16-2008, 03:49 PM

Now do you mean sub-forum as in Ford Tech Forum lounge? Or as in Ford Tech? I think of a sub-forum as in the lounge.

AcidiCyn_

04-16-2008, 04:09 PM

I figured it'd either be a sub-forum under pit road
or
Right under the video post (as in not a sub-forum)

I am very sorry no one has gotten back to you with a response.

As of now, we have other issues that need to be settled, and delt with before considering this.
