Bugs & Broken Things
Image/picture posting broken — Members can’t reliably post pictures; size constraints confirmed it needs fixing.
Real names exposed in notifications — Notifications show members’ real names instead of usernames (privacy leak). Priority: High ·
Editor cut off on the right (CSS) — Composer clipped on the right depending on sidebar state (marked fixed). Priority: High ·
Search icon hidden until scroll — Home-page search glass only appears after scrolling, so new visitors don’t see search. Priority: High · @EdMc34ZuZu
Login trouble on first attempts — Some members had initial login trouble (improving over time). Priority: Med · @brookstroutr
“Superimposed page” glitch — New user saw a page overlaid on the current one (likely the composer overlay). Priority: Med · @gruff54
Feature Requests
“View unread posts” button — Core nav many rely on; “Latest” ≠ “unread,” needs pairing with “Mark all read.” Priority: High · @MudOilnGears, @magik, @JoeIsuzu
Bigger composer / typing window — Enlarged after requests, but power-users still want more, esp. for marketplace listings. Priority: High · @EdMc34ZuZu, @EdMc34ZuZu
Post Preview option — Requested early; later found next to the Options “+” and confirmed working. Priority: Med · @EdMc34ZuZu
Site glossary for acronyms — A glossary of engine/sensor abbreviations (MAF, MAP, IAC, IAT…). Priority: Low · @AuDmax
UX / Design
Can’t figure out how to quote text — Member couldn’t find how to add a quote when replying. Priority: Med · @JoeIsuzu
Username role-colors are confusing — Members don’t understand why usernames change color; role/Orange-Post styling is unexplained. Priority: Low · @EdMc34ZuZu
Content & Structure
Tag system: list, creation rights & sprawl — Want a visible tag list + user tag-creation; staff will pin a suggestions thread and limit creation to L4 (OG/Veteran). Also questions the 8-char min title. Priority: Med · @EdMc34ZuZu, @AuDmax
Missing “Vehicles for Sale” category — A vehicle listing had nowhere to go. Priority: Med · @EdMc34ZuZu
Avoid “mega threads” — one topic per deal — Per-deal topics using the URL-in-subject feature; staff will add a FB/Craigslist deals sub-category. Priority: Med · @JoeIsuzu
Suggested engine/swap tags — GM 2.8/3.1/3.4 V6, 3.2 Stroker, 3.4 Swap, X22SE (staff confirmed added). Priority: Low · @EdMc34ZuZu
Honorary section for Jerry Lemond — A dedicated section + tagging effort to preserve a veteran’s posts; volunteer offered. Priority: Low · @EdMc34ZuZu
Moderation / Spam
AI/bot account policy (ForaFrank) — A parody “AI assistant” account raises whether bot posting belongs here; members object, staff lean toward keeping it as a bit with an “A.I. Assistant” role. Priority: Med · @ForaFrank, @Fvscope, @Cooltrainersamson
Onboarding & Signup
New-user learning curve — Less-technical members find it takes getting used to (tagging, nav, notifications), though most stay positive. Priority: Med · @gruff54, @isuzufool
How to send a private message — New user couldn’t find PMs. Priority: Med · @Enemigo
Email-on-new-post notifications — Asked how to get notified; email notifications later confirmed working. Priority: Low · @gruff54
Performance & Uptime
Abysmal performance on low-end hardware — ~5fps with half-second input lag on work PCs; suspected a site-side issue vs. other Discourse forums. Priority: High · @Rumena
Slow, awkward mobile UI — Mobile loads slowly; staff committing to mobile work this week (Discourse Hub app offered interim). Priority: High · @magik, @Cooltrainersamson
But seriously,this place makes me feel like I’ve gotten out of the Shower and had a Shave..!! It’s clean..!! Kinda like I had a great coffee,then took a “Healthy Fora-Frank And Cleanly Wiped My VertiScope”.. Ughh.. You Poor Guys..!! As a 65.5 yr. old “Self Confessed Digital Moron”,even I am able to make sense of this “Happy Home” and rudely navigate it’s Halls and Rooms..!! One thing that I’ll figure out is just how to PM you “Plank Owner Legends” so that you have all the dumb stuff from me..!! Ya’ know,my email,name,cell # and even Snail Mail address here in Hot/Humid Ohio..!! Hey,Forward We Go..!!
you could probably request they take it down too
