New Member Introduction Thread - discussion

[Red Devil]

I don't know if it's a good idea or not but in other forums, to reduce clutter, there is a specific topic for new members. If this is a good idea then please sticky this and any new members may post some information about themselves, their car and a few pics if they'd like.

Yeah, there needs to be a sticky thread for new members that can introduce themselves, show pics of their V and talk about plans such as mods and what brands they want. There has been too many new threads and a lot of people don't have the initiative to use the search tool for the topic needed and don't introduce themselves accordingly. It needs to be a smooth process for people.

Maybe it'd be a good idea to include using the search ability in the introduction of the topic? Give an outline about the general purpose of the site as well as making it clear ALL types of members/car styles are accepted. Also make it clear that opinions will be respected to a certain point so long as they aren't derogatory comments/opinions i.e. "Your car sucks because it's not modded/ is modded". I think there's enough misunderstanding on both sides.

Most definitely, I agree with that. That would solve a lot of the issues going on in these forums.

Haha I'm still pretty new... so here goes...

My name is Andrew, I'm Canadian, 21 years old, bought my Versa last summer, am at 21 000km so far. My car is Airstream (silver) S, 6 Speed manual. Got the options package with power locks, windows, remote entry. Oh and since I live in Canada... I have heated mirrors

As for planned mods... Not too sure right now... more than likely a Thule Aero roof rack system will come shortly to hold my bikes/skiis/kayak, and possibly some oem wheels, fogs. and hatch spoiler, and most definatly tint.

As for work... I am in trade school right now, becoming an HVAC tech.

I won't even bother to post pics of a stock, silver S model versa lol.

An idea for a thread... I post on the VW Vortex forums and at least once a year there is a "face behind the name" thread, where people will post up pics of their car and themselves and this kinda info. Think that would be a cool idea here?

Edit your first post to what you believe it should be and we'll examine and sticky the thread.

Edit: Just saw the other thread.

Thanks
