I love browsing here but since all the posts are in the same forum it is almost impossible to keep up.
Like I just posted a thread yesterday requesting some pics of surf/beach type rides. Now its buried behind 3 pages of new posts/replies.
Its really a pain the the a@@ to navigate here.
Here is an example of how KillBillet is laid out; now I like coming here much better but at least they have a good layout to post in and its much easier to navigate:
General Rat Rod Talk (http://www.killbillet.com/forumdisplay.php?f=13)
Rat Rod Pictures (http://www.killbillet.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2)
Rat Rod Projects (http://www.killbillet.com/forumdisplay.php?f=3)
Under $3000 Club (http://www.killbillet.com/forumdisplay.php?f=4)
30s Rat Rods (http://www.killbillet.com/forumdisplay.php?f=5)
40s Rat Rod (http://www.killbillet.com/forumdisplay.php?f=6)
50s Rat Rods (http://www.killbillet.com/forumdisplay.php?f=7)

etc etc...

Ahhhhhh yeah it was only an example of another board,, I guess I should have used a ricer one instead? :eek:
And thanks, yes I know how to use the search,, I guess this will always be a PITA to use.

It won't be a PITA to use if you figure out how to use it...

The problem with multiple forums is some people post away with no regard to which forum they are in. This is alright for smaller boards but we would do nothing but move posts from one fourm to the other and we'd never get to use the thing ourselves. That and people would get pissed because they don't agree with the moves we made.

Learn how to use the tools here and you'll be just fine.
