I remember sometimes ago, cartalk used to be real fun. Lots of topics everyday, discussions, arguments, debates and at the end of the day we all agree to disagree (or should I say disagree to agree). But now the case is different.. if a mod doesn't agree with u he hides ur post. Its no news that lots of active members have left car talk, or have stopped commenting on general topics. Or maybe they now only care about their own threads. Its no news that nowadays its only a topic that makes it to front page that gets lots of comments (we all know what happens when a topic meant for cartalk makes it to front page). I really think the mods should take things easy a little bit. Too many hidden posts, they even modify topics created by members without prior notice. This thread would be fun again if the mods take things easy.
