I'm glad your the one getting those and not me. If I get a PM from someone that I normally don't talk to it's simply asking me about a mod I have and how I like it.

So, I've subscribed to this thread. Let's hear all your ideas on what topics to add and we will pick the best and most popular ideas and add them.

Thanks

This is along those lines. If I spend some time and write out a "What size tire fits your truck" thread can you make it a sticky? I get tired of the same ?'s all the time, and since most people don't know/use the search function it can be a pain.

I guess I just thought that would take place in each topic.

a how to would be both, in my forum for my dsm's we have the usual how-to's stickied, and then the questions are asked there...makes things easier

and honestly i dont mind getting em but its just a pain we dont have a section when its me, tide, ty, ngm, and a few others as the main contributors and im sure im not the only one...i mean i personally know i have intruded tide's pm box a few times with how to questions
