I like my truck. And I like this forum. Can we stop linking to Ranger6g on the "latest posts" list.

The 6G is gonna be great, no doubt. But now that it's gonna be a thing a little separation might be good.

Listing threads from another forum that I'm not a member of is kinda odd. Never seen that before anywhere.

Edit: Damn Title Typo!

While I whole heartedly agree, it'll never stop. The owner of this forum owns the R6G forum too, and they are driving traffic for ad revenue.

You're probably right. Doesn't hurt to ask though?

I agree it's a bit annoying to click a link on the latest posts that takes me to another forum I'm not a member of and not really interested in.

It will hopefully stop posting here too once the 6g site begins being used more regularly. I imagine this will be relatively soon with 6g rollout in the near future.

Maybe as a compromise, could the thread titles for the 6g links somehow show that it's a thread at Ranger6g? So it would appear something like:

"Order Banks Open Next Month? [Ranger6g.com]"

That would be great if it did so on the mobile site.
it already shows it in the thread, in regular font.
In BOLD with the title would be OK, but i'd still rather not see them at all. I'm a big boy with google skills, I can find 6G related info when I need it.

Perhaps it does on the full page. But not on the mobile site. 99% of my internet use is in my phone nowadays.

My phone loves the link warning....... ..


Please remove the cross generation linking. Those 6G guys can stay off my lawn. Walked up hills both ways to make my 5G how I want it and still walking... Something something stupid something.

I understand the position of 5g members who do not want to be linked to 6g. For myself, I am assuming that I will more than likely be buying a 6g Ranger at some point, so I do not mind checking out stuff over there before the time comes. (I went ahead and joined over there so that I can react and comment, but I hang out here much more, where the content is oriented to our present 5g Rangers and the members are so congenial--not to mention the damper jokes!)
