Don't get me wrong, the 2005 is HOT, a guy in my building bought a new bluew one, and it's NICE, but I still prefer curves.

Maybe a 2007...

no kidding R-man. I wanna see the new Tiburon based on the HCD-7. That is going to be one sweet mommy. I also like the GK but i don't think it's perfect. the FX is flawless. even for a 6'3 guy like me.

Somebody try to convince Xorro (Zoe) from UKCS to keep her ride and swap it for the 2007 mode.

i'd like to see some GK members up here. my fault. we won't see that happen any time soon because 70% of them don't know squat about us.

So on AIM this morning, my friend tells me this:

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>I posted some stuff about some kid asking about an RD header. I told him 2 other places he could go for info cuz NT is for GK's. A freekin Mod deleted my post...I just dont know who</div>

On top of that, NT.com has shut down ALL new registrations. No one can register to that site any more.

Now the two things above confuse me.

They are soo worried about keeping members and growing their community that they will delete posts that show links to other sites, yet they make it so no one new can register to their site.

What tools.

No they didn't.

http://www.newtiburon.com/forums/register.php?

I logged out and was able to register. Don't know why you cant.

As for the thread about the header, I'd like to see it. I'll post in it and see if my posting gets deleted. Or is this the same "FRIEND" that had all of your stuff in his sig?

Ummm....yes they did: http://www.newtiburon.com/forums/showthrea...ead.php?t=32260

Perhaps they realized it was dumb idea and turned it back on.

Nope - it was BoostRichter9, a well known member of NT.

Aside from that, just because someone has a link to my site in their sig doesn't make it suspicious. There's other members here who have tibathon.com stuff in their sigs, as well as plently on NT.

Sorry if that somehow bothers you.

Well, if you posted the reason WHY they closed it for awhile, it would make sence to everyone. Telling a partial truth doesn't help anything.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Tibfighter)</div><div class='quotemain'>Time for some tough love.

Over the past few weeks we've been averaging 10-30 trolls per day (newly registered accounts whose owners have only malicious intent). <span style="colorarkGreen"><span style="font-size:14pt;line-height:100%">On average, the moderators as a crew are spending a 5.5-6.5 HOURS A DAY cleaning up the mess. Well, the easiest way to eliminate trolling is to kill registration. We haven't decided yet if this will be a temporary measure.

We have determined that the trolls we have been fighting off are in fact 5-10 former members of this site who have decided that it is a great pleasure to spam this site. We plan to reveal their identities.</span></span>In the meantime, if you have a friend or know of a legitimate user who would like to establish an account here please contact a moderator and we will draw up a new list of potential members and provide them with accounts.</div>

Wonder who will be on that list?


<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Nope - it was BoostRichter9, a well known member of NT.</div>

Maybe it was an accident? I've accidentally deleted posts and threads before.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Aside from that, just because someone has a link to my site in their sig doesn't make it suspicious. There's other members here who have tibathon.com stuff in their sigs, as well as plently on NT.</div>

Well, depends on what they are posting. And it also would depend on the drama going on at NT.com that we don't know about. After reading that thread, this is silly.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Sorry if that somehow bothers you.</div>

Doesn't at all. But next time, tell everything that's going on. I don't blame them for locking registrations for awhile, we are restricting some registration stuff now too.

Maybe when your site gets a bigger userbase, you'll need to also.
