MUST READ: New Users must post three meaningful messages within 30 days or be deleted

Post by Dan Szwarc »

New users who register and then do not post at least 3x within within 30 days will be automatically deleted.

One does not need an account to browse or search. Membership is for asking and answering questions.

This is to reduce spammer accounts.

If your post is not at least three reasonable or legitimate questions or comments or just a spurious comment, our AI systems will detect it a delete it and the account.

If you get your answer and never come back, you won’t need an account.

Sorry if this causes any inconveniences. Spam is a very big problem and is not tolerated in the slightest.

I deleted a user today I suspected of spam when I approved the account.

He tried to make three spam posts but new user posts must be approved by me. No one ever saw them.

Obvious spammer account registration with obvious spammer email deleted. Didn’t even bother waiting to approve them.

I tried Chat GPT, and it seems plausible, but I guess the joke’s on him…my transmission isn’t even slipping! :lol:

Hi Dan, because of my cancer and concussion I will be reading and posting less and less, but please don't delete me as I enjoy what I read. If things get worse, I will probably have to sell my 63 sedan, but right now I'm really trying hard to avoid that. If I am going to depart the planet, I don't want to leave my wife with that responsibility, but with prices so high, now might be the time. Wayne

You have nothing to worry about, Wayne. I do not delete content from users who have contributed even one single post of useful commentary or advice. You and everyone are always welcome to visit as non-Lincoln owners to provide feedback, welcome messages to newbies, and moral support.

I wish you the best in your recovery.

I'm rebuilding a 64 continental for a guy and I've been learning a lot just reading these posts. I'm really starting to like this car. I'm in need of a trunk deck lid for it. It's a sedan. I'm trying to keep costs down as much a as possible of course but some things you have to have. Any recommendations on parts would be appreciated. Thank y'all.

Thanks for posting. Check out the Usual Suspects thread, but finding whole deck lids is difficult. 64 was a very popular year and other years may be compatible. Please ask I’m the appropriate forum.

Sorry, but this doesn’t count.

If you don’t post a reasonably contributing question or answer specifically Lincoln-related, your account will be deleted.
Sorry, but spammers are bastards and I do not need accounts for their spam email addresses being in the member list or questionable usernames. It may seem hardship, but you don’t need to be a member to read the forum and get tips from our 22 years of posts.

If you’re not ready to post or don’t have a Lincoln, just rejoin later. Sorry for the inconvenience.
