Everyone needs to relax a bit here. I was trying to HELP.  I don't want any rules and, in fact, don't even care about OT posts. Someone else had taken issue with OT posts and I posted a list of Netiquette guidelines. One of those guidelines was merely to mark off-topic posts so people knew the thing was off-topic (and could therefore read or promptly delete the message).  

 

I don't want rules, don't need rules, and I'm not lobbying for rules.  I posted a list of helpful guidelines to help people get along better (cuz it looked like the OT post issue was gonna get out of hand).

That's all!

Ok now pay close attention to #1

#1 This is a list for people with Chevelles, we talk about them.
Then we BS about other things. Just like Chevelle people would
do in their garage .

It is a fun forum , we have a way to un-sub, I'm sure someone
will post it...
