What's up with SDU

[REDGTT]

Good website prank.

I think the SDU NZ people are getting abit feisty.

This should do just fine.

Rock on Aussie SDU guys and girls!

Good job PranK (your the man) How much did you pay for the nismo indicators???

Ryan what are you doing here :lol: :lol: :lol: j/k

Couldn't agree more guys.

As a founding member of SDU I have had a lot of sleepless nights lately. The forum has got out of control, and we are taking steps to get it back under control.

See my earlier post regarding an Aussie SDU.

Gents,

Thanks for the invite. I'm a little confused. I drop in about once a day to read most of the SDU OZ posts and I have not noticed anything wrong with the SDU. Maybe I just don't read all the post unless they take my eye.

I have had a few posts up and never been moderated, could someone please fill me in because I'm unsure what people were doing wrong and why anyone would delete or stop a thread.

The Internet is a rare thing where people can stand up and have their stay. I have seen people absolutely sh!t all over UAE but I still go there and have a chat with John, but I don't buy much. What ever happen to freedom of speech? Is this SDU moderator thing just a couple of 18 year olds on a rule the world trip or did some people step over the mark?, which is hard to do because if you don't like what you are reading then don't read it.

Please explain.

Thanks

OZ

They're basically telling you what you can write in which forum and that's that. eg in the for sale forum, nemisis has been cracking down on anyone that posts a thread in which they didn't state ;name, pic, landline contact number, price etc. It's really funny. Oh, and you can't post unless you pay $20 from 1 July. They're just sick of the some of the shit that went on I guess. Oh well, you'll still see me there as I'm learning a shit load and you'll still see me here 'cause I can type SHIT LOAD without getting a warning.

Keep it real Prank!

Thankyou for your honest response Starion. I have always looked upon you as a good honest SDU leader without nonsense. You and Brendon Makes all the difference. I love my SDU but it is sad that it has come to this and everybody is victimised for it and no socialising is allowed.

damn i just got a new SDU sticker in the mail from Shell last night!!

what a wasteeeeeeeeee :evil:

[two40]

It aint a waste INASNT, you can post it to me. :mrgreen:

[ph1]

theres a story behind everything.. such as the for sale forum, certain individuals have been ripping off a lot of people using the for sale forum (taking money but not sending goods, some for thousands of $), the new posting requirements were implemented for forum users benefit, why?

- they are required to give multiple means of contact, no free email addresses and a landline number to prevent against people using prepaid mobiles and disappearing after they have your money.

- they are required to post a photo to prove the acually have the product they are "selling"

the for sale forums were provided free and were very good targetted advertising, its a shame they were abused by some and these restrictions had to be put in place. but.. hey, at least they are still there.

after all the drama i went through to finially get it!! i think i'll keep it and mayb burn it if SDU goes down!! :lol:

Well mine is still on the car but I can't guarantee for how long. as it is I have already become comfortable with things around here, I think if we just look at SDU as a technical resource and nothing more it should all be sweet. I mean who has "encyclopaedia brittanica" stickers on their car? 8)

[two40]

I was only kidding mate. I don't like putting stickers on my car. How much was it anyway?

[Squizz]

I can't honestly remember what I paid for mine, I got a handful of them in the first batch. If you look at my car you can see I quite clearly hate stickers 8)

[two40]

Funny man ay? I don't hate them all that much. I just couldn't bare to put one on my bonnet like you have.

I do have one on the top of my rear windshield though. A small BD4's sticker.

[Squizz]

Each to their own eh? I like 'em other don't, depends on the look you're after really. 8)

[skyzerr33]

i can't be stuffed taking the sticker off.

hopefully we get an Aus club up and running. if not to bad.

but i'm gonna use SDU for the tech info, can't find any better place for in the world atm.

its helped me lots and i'd like to see it keep going in some fashion. I can understand there point of view but would of liked the social side to stay.
