The now totally redundant recommended suppliers section could be used as a recommended parts section.

That way there's no preferential treatment for any particular external vendor, and maybe less people would end up buying crappy steering idler arms in ignorance of just how bad they are 

Some examples

Trying. Really am.

Those Tc listings are no longer available on the Tc web site by the way. They may return, but they may not. Good job some of them where copied. But what's the point if their lost in the depths. ...?

[chrisgixer]

Another valid point. Recommended sellers desperately needs looking at. We could never get it to work in the way we envisaged. To the point, there was a discussion to remove it entirely.

Ok, we're talking at cross purposes by the looks. By that I mean, admin are looking at a private criteria, or whatever you want to call it.

Members seem to presume, or is it just me, that they will have some sort of input. If that's not the case, then can we separate the issue?

Ignoring recomended suppliers, for a minute, I think there's grounds for recomended parts section. There would need to be a structure on pricing. I guess? Like on tyres with top end, mid range and budget where available. Etc

But it would save people a lot of money having the latest info, such as idlers, on a particular part to hand. If a part goes tats up, then we need to know. Such as lemforders idlers. GM only now.

Sorry TB I intended no kind of criticism and I didn't mean to infer that if some kind of poll were posted that my views wouldn't count,just that the admin team set the rules[as far as I'm aware] and a very good and fair job they make of it too.As for distinctions in sale/wanted ads that is the sort of thing I know nothing about but your explanation has made it clearer for me.

None taken, you'd have to be far blunter to piece my skin .

You are a member here. Your view counts as much as anybody else's, including mine, Mark's, Barry's, Broocie's, Kevin's and James'.  So stop arse licking , and post 'em up

 

Sorry, funniest thing I read on here for ages and I'm sure Sir Tig and Capt Zok would agree.

Its for the safety of members that the criteria cannot be published.

They would, just not in the final decision on if they are included (as they won't know the criteria)

Can I draw attention to this again..?

[Diamond Black Geezer]

My observation - the OP couldn't have picked a topic more likely to provoke intense discussion on here! Good call, I say! 


I'd say potentially...

1. '250 minimum selling posts - stupid or good idea?'
2. 'I have excessive inner wear on my front tyres - what's wrong?'
3. 'Is there a God? And is he a Ford or a Vauxhall man?'
4. 'What are 'Poly bushes' and is it worth fitting them - I say just get the cheapest wishbones you can'
5. 'Omega C'

...are the 'top 5' that get plenty foaming at the mouth

Surely you missed out .... which oil do I use?

Here's a clue which oil God uses...
