I have thought before that its a shame for people from other nations to always be speaking English, and it will be good for everyone if they can pick up a new word a day. I regret not taking another language (I'd love to learn Italian) so anyone like me can pick up a bit.

Unfortunetly that adds a huge workload to the folk who run the site. If I knew anymore words I'd love to help.

Also too many topics can make things look messy, but I'd like a photo gallery.

What about a countdown because the star and the people icon underneath the F1 technical banner on the start page. Like the one you see on F1.com.
Simon: Nils? You can close in now. Nils?
John McClane: [on the guard's phone] Attention! Attention! Nils is dead! I repeat, Nils is dead, ----head. So's his pal, and those four guys from the East German All-Stars, your boys at the bank? They're gonna be a little late.
Simon: [on the phone] John... in the back of the truck you're driving, there's $13 billon dollars worth in gold bullion. I wonder would a deal be out of the question?
John McClane: [on the phone] Yeah, I got a deal for you. Come out from that rock you're hiding under, and I'll drive this truck up your ass.

LOL! That's why we need a traduction page :lol:

I think the discussion should be "more straight".
Some are only posting agreements.
Such as: good, I also belive this. or simply some emotions: :evil: :cry:

One member here is a master of this.
Sometimes I wish I could delete such replys because they only help to get off topic.

I think posts should be deleted on who is a better driver, it is all opinion no fact to it and it puts the thread out of order.

I agree with zac to stay with the current one, it gives me a headache with too many forums :oops:

mech_coen opened a separate forum. I think he agreed on this with Tomba. :oops:

No, he did that on his own, without any prior talking to me.
I don't think I'll be present there ;)

Well actually the point of this thread is that some people earlier on suggested we'd need something extra in the forum.

A popular question was to somehow seperate the "general car technology" from off topic chat

Furthermore, AES are willing to help with a project when that is run on this site. They also asked for a seperate forum dedicated to development of a car. While I think it's a very very interesting idea, I'm not sure if there is enough interest and experience to build something valuable.

I for one would like to guide it all in good ways and maybe learn a bit of CAD this summer, but I have no experience with any of that, although I'm very interested in it.

I also find some problems between general chat and off topic chat. Having in mind that purpose of F1T is to be informative and educational some topics dealing with F1 history usualy end up in off topic chat while "who is better driver" or stuff about Ide and similar things remain in general chat. I think that either all F1 related topics should be in general chat or general chat should be differently organised.
