Dear Car Talk Community, While I had a chance over the holidays, I simply wanted to share some thinking from the Car Talk Plaza end regarding the Car Talk Community, our plans and hopes as we look to 2012 and beyond. First, a belated New Year’s thank you. We’re grateful for our local Car Talk Comm…

I don’t think a “stronger stand” on moving things to the queue is needed at all. If anything, I think that the site admin is often a bit too thin skinned about discussions that people have. If this site gets any “cleaner,” and I find myself having to watch everything I say because there is some po…

At one time in the past, this forum did use a queue and all replies had to be reviewed before they got posted. That did not work out very well. At the time, there were a few people that were real (what’s that body part I am trying to think of?) that were very disruptive and disrespectful to everyo…

Happy New Year to all. I think that the transition has been relatively smooth. As far as fuming especially to the newbies; I am on a few other forums and cartalk is the most civil and benign.

Then it’s probably just Internet Explorer’s error report. to wit ; Internet Explorer Internet explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We’re sorry for the inconvenience. If you were in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost. – Please tell Micros…

Yep, those reports go into the Microsoft world, never to be seen again. That happens all the time with my XP/IE8 (fully updated) machine, never now with my Windows7/IE9 machine. The XP/IE8 will, after a couple of errors, refuse to show the discussion until I close, then reopen, the window. Does t…

Mine always reopens. ( but it’s such a pain in the keester to fiddle with that over and over. ) As this is a work place computer I’ll have to just wait for any I.E. updates to come through the front office.
