Hi all, been asked to maybe clarify who the forum admin is, who are the moderators etc.

Firstly I (Gary) am the “owner” I guess you would say of the forum.  I decided to start it, I bought the domain name, picked the name,etc etc.  This came out of a frustration with the instability and neglect the old Street Commodores forum had been going through.  The other forums I was on just didn’t seem to have the same feel as SC.  In case your wondering I started and run my own CAD Drafting business “Cadgile”, which is why you see the blatant self promotional advert on the right hand side there

The only “Admin” apart from me is my daughter Georgie, she is currently studying (and nearly finished) Law & Journalism at uni, and apart from a million other very worthwhile things has become a quite a handy little software coder.  She in fact started her own small business “Easy by Design” as a free lance website designer and this is funding her way through Uni. http://www.easybydesign.com.au/

There currently is only one Moderator – Me.  And I am quite proud to say that in the almost year its been going there has been a grand total of one occasion anything needed to be moderated.  And tbh that was a pretty minor rude word.  The whole idea from the start of the forum is we all treat each other with respect and so there shouldn’t be a need for any Nazi moderators.

So hopefully that provides some info, carry on building

The forum is bloody awesome Gary you and your daughter should both be proud of the outcome.

Thanks for making this a great site to hangout and get some great ideas and answers to some not so simple questions.

 

Cheers

Was almost a shame I couldn’t even register on street Commodores otherwise I would have never found this place!!

 

Well done mate, not only that you get to spend some time with your daughter as well!!

I have noticed that on this forum most members appear to be car nuts as opposed to the randoms that post “hey my car wont start after steam was pouring out of the bonnet for an hour, what do I do” type. Less members, but the members are well educated in the school of car mods

"If your going through hell, keep going!"

That was the goal from the start, not to chase thousands of members but have a smallish but solid base.  Looks like we are heading toward 600 though, which if you got them all in one spot is still a nice chunk of enthusiasts.  But def agree, there are some very knowledgeable people on here and I think the bit I like the most is all of them are willing to share that knowledge.  There has also been some serious discussions with differing points of view, and unlike may other forums, people on here seem to be able to disagree but without resorting to a shouting match.

Except you have crossed over to the FI dark side…..

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

You mean the fast side

[ImmortalityParticipant 97 HSV Senator 185i 02 VX L67 Calais View build HERE Member since: August 31, 2015 Posts: 535]

Nothing wrong with FI.

Missus is driving a supercharged V6, lots of torque when you want it but with all the manners of a standard type car.

Personally, I don’t mind grumpy, makes driving more exciting….

Only taking the piss, I like anything that’s fast (except Fords of course)
