I used to moderate a very active forum on which there was much heated debate. Most of the "reported" posts were so innocent it was so tiresome to keep up with. If someone pisses you off, add them to your ignore list or even send them an IM stating they are going too far. Or just ignore it. The signal to noise ratio in here remains very much in favor of signal.

Totally agree.
So now he's banned for good. Maybe those supporting him should hit the "report" button too sticking up for him.
A few people complain and the guy gets banned?? Seriously? Like a small witch hunt. I'm sure more guys don't like me on here, so five guys complain and ban me?? Only time I got a warning just because diva Eduardo complained about me.
I don't like one out of the five things I see posted on the form here, but I just move on and ignore them. Part of being part of such a big diverse group. Don't you guys run across people in your day to say lives that you'd rather not deal with? What do you do? Call Mommy??
We can't have a few laughs here? Last thing I want to see are thumping tire posts and when should be first oil change be posts all day.
Anyway, kinda disappointing losing a guy who actually has some decent threads (including this one!!!!) and contributions to a few people who need coping therapy.
So come into his own thread and troll/stalk him?? Don't like it, don't open the thread. Easy isn't it?

So Internet Brands makes a ton of money and relies on volunteers to moderate the forums? If it's that time consuming and stressful, why do it? No thanks for me.

My first purchase for my new car, since most of my old stuff I salvaged from my old car. 
A sunshade for the windshield!

I had a black one like this for my old car - my young children got a kick out of it.

Do you mind taking a pic of it in the windshield when you get a chance?
Thanks!

Bought a carbon fiber license plate frame. Will post a pic when received.
Now onto the more important question, what did R_Rated do to earn a permanent ban?
Why are there so many thin skinned people on this forum?

Did you ever order the 991.2 rear view mirror? I'm really disliking the 991.1 mirror. Install looks like it should be simple, but Suncoast's description has me nervous.

That's brilliant! There's a car like that at the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart.
