Manny of the current members Moderators of this community have been here long enough to see, hear about, and participate in our DSM area here at AF. Being one of the largest most popular tuning vehicles in the past decade it goes without saying this area of AF sees a high volume of people and needs to be a valuable resource for the intermediate to advanced DSM tuning community. With this years loss of our pervious, highly experienced Moderators (Joe wagon & Jake) we, as a DSM community have seen a significant struggle to keep bad information form spreading, sloppy spelling, the nonexistent use of the search button & at least 4 posts every day in the wrong thread topic without any moderation. Myself, and our experienced members are loose faith in what is being done to preserve all the hard work we have put into this section of AF and what will be done to get it back to normal. We are starting to loose faith. These results are simply unacceptable. There in no way One new Moderator can do the work 2 extremely experienced DSM tuning moderators had done in the past. We need change!

This lack of moderation in the Eclipse/Talon/Laser forums is hurting this community as a whole. Josh, our ONLY moderator is new to the DSM world & can't be expected or required to moderate information he can't deem malicious. If we ever hope to attract any more experienced users or keep the ones we have, things need to change He can, and had done a wonderful job in correcting the areas that directly break AF regulation.

The only integrity we have as a community is in the information passed on to our fellow and future members. If we don’t take account for our mistakes, and learn from them we will never grow. . AF need ONE OR TWO experienced DSM Moderator’s to help Josh with this gigantic task of keeping AF a place of learning and sharing ideas. If not I sincerely feel this Eclipse/Talon/Laser will fail.

DO NOT REPLY TO THIS POST WITH YOUR SUGGESTIONS ON HOW THE PROPOSED CHANGE CAN BE MADE BETTER. START YOUR OWN IWC THREAD IF YOU HAVE AN IDEA ON HOW TO FURTHER IMPROVE AF AFTER THIS CHANGE PASSES OR FAILS.

I agree 100% ^^^

Interstingly, this is a topic the mods have been discussing.

Don't lose faith.......yet ;)

Have we made any progress here? What's the status?

Our admin is MIA, you may want to ask -Josh- if he knows what is going on.

I was hoping that somebody with some gurth on this site reads these things, like Igor. We talk to Josh all the time about this sort of thing, and it ends up getting closed because people get out of hand about it somewhere in the thread. Thanks though.

Patience my dear friend, the admins (both Mike and Igor) are quite busy of late, both are upgrading and updating sections throughout AF. This suggestion has been brought to their attention and will be one of the top items to take care of within the next two weeks. I know you all have been waiting, but please bear with the admins, they will get to this.

TS out

Well...? I still have yet to see Igor or someone who makes these decisions post anything up or give any update at all.

I'm sorry about this, I'll see if I can't get someone on this for you guys.

Dude, we all appreciate your opinion, but please help your case and concentrate on spelling things correctly and re-read your post before you submit. That was just sad.

The new AF has spell check for those interested :wink: but I am not a spelling master either :disappoin. I have discussed the new moderators that need to be added with one of the admins as well, he has posted that he will be adding the new moderators that have been requested shortly. Unfortunately these things need extreme patients :banghead: but rest assured there will be additional moderation.

John

PS- Josh is doing a excellent job and deserve's more respect after he has fought for your request such as a additional moderator and additional forum changes.
