This forum strives for quality over quantity. Our goal is not to make a profit off the site. This forum is here for you to freely exchange information about your cars.

That said, I am not opposed to members making a profit for quality products and services. If you are an individual or a large manufacture of aftermarket parts you are welcome to post relative links/ads/prices on this site as long as they pertain to the JUKE. You do not need to ask me, and I don't expect anything in return. However, if you made a significant amount of money off this site I would be open to a donation for server costs and beer money. :)

Personally I'm not big on rules, but one of my admins on http://kizashiclub.com spelled things out rather well and this is what I would like to see from our members.

  • If you're going to post the same complaint you posted on every other thread where somebody said they liked the car, save it, we've probably gotten the message by now.
  • If somebody wants to complain about some issue that they have with the car, that's their right. There's no reason to attack them for finding a problem with their car, even if it's one you don't have or have managed to look past.
  • Use the search feature. We don't need 20 threads about the same thing.
  • Please don't hijack threads. If a discussion starts in a thread that is not related to the original topic, please create a new topic and link to it.
  • DON'T FEED THE TROLLS! If someone if spamming the forum or continually posting things that are not helpful or are simply meant to be inflammatory, report them to the moderators, don't dignify it with a response.


We have a good forum here with an active group of members, and I'd like to see this site continue to grow. That will only happen if we continue to have constructive and civil discussions about our vehicles.

Random talk about something you saw/thought/ate/found funny/etc. is great as well, as long as it's in the appropriate section of the forum.

Thanks.


In addition to those rules I will ask that if you copy and paste anything to the forum please make sure to quote it and provide a backlink. (even competitor forums). Few things bug me more than finding articles/papers/posts that I wrote copied without any acknowledgment of author.

A few things new members might want to do

This forum allows you access to options you pay for on other forums. If you would like to see any added functionally added or changed just post it in the suggestions section. Occasionally I forget to turn things on.

The ads that are currently on the forum are whats going to stay on the forum. You will not see any extra ads and nobody is going to bother you for lifetime membership fees.
As out community grows a few things may be added, but the focus will always be on providing the best community possible. Ideally we will grow a strong technical group.
