so you dont think putting one's personal info out (such as your real name, where you live, and what car you drive as well as pictures of it) would make it more liable to get stolen from the NUMEROUS thieves who use TR as a classifieds?

this "help thread" is just a cheap ploy to try and get yourself a lil green name

i dunno what bug crawled up your ass, but i came up with an idea that i thought would be helpful. i could care less who mods it, and i certainly dont care to be mod. i just thought that if its something to help others out, there had to be someone out there who would deal with the bullshit that is TR.

and to be frank with you....uh, frank, (lol) almost everyone has a picture of their car in their sig anyways. and they have a (usually legitimate) location on the left side under thier username. a member directory would only put all that info into one spot.

yea, i'm working on getting the hamster out (the one that crawled up my ass)...

anyways keep throwing out ideas, it may just work out if you can get it down to a specific (yet non specific) detail...

in fact, why dont you start a thread in general car chat to test it out.

heres shinmei point. i see you (gst racer) all the time (ie QS&L, seminole bvld.)but you have no idea who i am or what i drive. and for a members directory i wouldnt post up my info for everyone to see
edit:*whispers* its because you have a giant picture of your car in your sig

i dont see how a picture of your car makes it easier to get stolen. you dont have to put your full name. i dont see how if someone shows a pic of thier car (maybe a civic), and says thier name is john or something, means someone is gonna track down a guy named john with a civic on rotas. all they have to do is go to a car meet and follow someone to thier house...you dont have to know someones name to steal thier car

^ +1. If I wanted to steal, lets say a black gst with silver hp racing wheels and a front mount, I would follow steve home from quaker and steal it some other time. People post pictures of their cars in members rides all the time, and most of them have their location posted under their avatar, so if your theory is correct than we would have alot more stolen cars on TR. My car is a PICTURE WHORE and everyone knows I'm in palm harbor---my car isnt stolen yet...
