That is interesting, although I personally think it is a great honor to have your ride as a featured ride. If we had just random cars up there, what goals to new members have? At least that is how I look at it. If I were many new people, I would want to see a ride that has it all. Not something that just has cool rims or a custom bodykit unless it had it all. Which is why they stay up there for so long, again, in my opinion or what I think I see.

i think we should have featured rides every month or so. and have the mods pick 3 or 4 rides and then have us members vote.
just an idea --------------------  QUOTE ‹Superaison› i'm a computer inclined guy.. ‹Superaison› or girl. idk what gender I am anymore. ‹SeverX13› *facepalm* QUOTE suprakid: o sh!t suprakid: i wanna get an obama chia pet SeverX13: hahahahaha |

The thing is that there are actually quite a few people's cars that are good canidates for being featured, so a switch off every 3-6months probably would be good.

I think every few months or so is a fine timeframe... it kinda separates the "cream of the crop" from the rest. IMO a FR should be more than a paintjob and body kit.
Some day I'd like to see my car up there... not for the recognition, but because I hope some day my car is even worthy of it! Maybe I can be the Prettiest Stock Around FR. ha ha ha --------------------  |

I think every month is actually a good rotation...you can always read past featured interviews and such if you miss a month. It's just that I'm so busy I barely have time for this, so they usually end up stuck up there for a few months at a time.
I'm working on a tool so that the moderators can control this themselves, but it's not quite done yet. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

I like the voting idea too... but is there a way to vote on the car w/out necessarily knowing who its owner is? That way it doesn't turn into a popularity contest.

That way it doesn't turn into a popularity contest. That's kind of hard to do, since alot of cars on here have something distinct about them that you'd recognize (like a certain paint job, body kit, wheels, motor ext..) Especially if it's someone who posts alot on these forums. Mabey there should just be nominations and have the Moderators/Coomer figure out who'd be the best candidate. -------------------- "A true car enthusiast can see the potential in any car"
