Thats because we had 1, it got out of control, and caused the site to be shut down for a while. ThirdGen.org will not allow it again.

People ask for this all the time, its not gonna happen.

I still maintain we get a board for people to ask for a non-tech board.

lol.

metalli... if you push for it, i nominate you to mod it. i sure as hell wouldn't want to lock all those posts.

also, adding on, a lot of members post their chat names on their profiles. sometimes we have chats thru messengers which are outside of the site here.


that's the closest we'll get to having a non tech section.

I also belong to PontiacYears... I guess they had a big problem also so I can understand. They shut down for a while also but the new board stays pretty clean, you start something your banned for life. and some have been. Great site for older Pontiacs.
