924/944/951/968 Forum Rules & Regulations
924/944/951/968 Forum Rules & Regulations
1. Post only in English.
2. Here and away from the board you must always promote the fact that the eighties were the greatest decade for Porsche and will forever be.
3. No misspelled words in your posts or incorrect grammar. "Thug" dialects will not be tolerated. "Redneck" slang is not allowed.
4. Porsche is pronounced "Por-shuh". Two syllables. This is your only warning. Say it wrong, even away far away from here, and we will know and come after you.
5. No posting of more than one message a day by new members for the first thirty days of membership. After that, you may post up to two messages a day.
6. No crossing over. If you own a 911 or a Boxster we don't want to hear about your problems. If you own a 4-cylinder Porsche you have no business hanging around the 911 forums.
7. The speed limit entering this forum is 50mph. This is for the safety of those exiting.
8. No posting in yards, feet, or inches. Posting in miles is the exception because no one on here knows how far a kilometer really is.
9. No, it is not normal for your temperature gauge to reach the top of the last bar. So don't ask.
10. If you own a normally aspirated 944 you may not write about attempts to break the seven second 0 - 60 barriar. This is to protect the ego of the turbo owners.
11. If you own a turbo you must refer to it using the secret internal Porsche designation "951". Saying "944 Turbo" is just not cool. Besides, someone may mistakingly think you are driving a regular 944.
12. Someone who is flaming in Rennlist means they are critizing someone else for something stupid they said. Someone who is flaming in real life means they are gay. To avoid confusion, we will now just call Rennlist flamers "flaming homosexuals". You may also refer to them as a "bitch", a "sissy", or simply "on the rag".
13. No drag racing. Period.
14. Unless you are sure you can win.
15. The blood alcohol limit (BAL) for this forum has been lowered. You are now considered intoxicated with a BAL of .0001 (one swallow of a wine cooler).
16. No posting of stories that do not follow the laws of physics. Example, "I hit a dirt mound and jumped more than twenty feet and got over six feet high in the air". You will notice this example also breaks Rule 8.
17. No questioning engineering or design decisions made by Porsche. Except for that !(@^&*# snap ring. We all agree that was a bad idea.
18. If your timing belt breaks don't come crying here. You knew to have it changed.
19. Only a Blaupunkt radio is allowed in your car even though we all know they are cheap, the face is hard to read during the day, and the reception generally sucks.
20. No letting non-Porsche owners drive your car because anyone who doesn't own a Porsche is irresponsible, doesn't know how to shift, and will wreck it.
21. No females are allowed in your car because you might end up making out with her and that would be wrong. This rule of course does not apply to the flaming homosexuals (see rule 12) because they will never end up kissing a girl anyway.
22. No adding interior/exterior "enhancements" that do not directly increase the horsepower or your car. This includes (but not limited to) white faced gauges, chrome panels, and decals.
23. These rules may or may not be easily available and seen from the actual Rennlist Forum website. Being a Porsche owner, you should just automatically know them. We should not have to be telling you anything that is written above.
24. Violation of the above rules will result in immediate permanent banning by some Rennlist moderator who we do not know and never see hanging around here.
25. These rules may be changed or amended to at any time by anyone.
Sincerely,

First Amendment (no relationship to the 'real' First Amendment, of course):
The word 'Volkswagen' is banned. We don't want to acknowledge the relationship.

Addendum to Rule 11: if the 944 Turbo in question is an '88 944 Turbo S, or '89 Turbo, it can only be called a "952." This is to avoid any possible confusion with it's lowly non-S brethren. It is also unacceptable to refer to a 968 as a 944 S3.
Second Amendment: _Never_, on penalty of death, use the A*d* word; We not only don't want to acknowledge that relationship, it just plain does not exist. Never did, never will. Huh-uh. Nope.
Rule # Twenty-whatever: No, there are no cupholders. Real men don't use them. Suck it up and quit whining!
My final addition? Brats will occasionally be treated as such by adults. Life's like that, sometimes. Ref. above vis. "whining."
Jim, still wiping coffee out of the keyboard...

If you have a 944, look in your glove box.
