What's up everyone. Just purchased a 2022 Explorer st in Stone blue. 34,000 miles. Wanted speed, but needed something to put the family in. Already been looking into upgrades. What mods do yall recommend first?

^^^ Bad manners to be pointing members of a forum to your own stuff. This isn't the first time.

Forums compete for members time, eyes on their site is why forums exist. No one can stop people from jumping all over the internet, but a web forum shouldn't be a portal to someone else's site. Steering members elsewhere is just in poor taste.

Make a single thread on this forum and import all of your stuff here.

Understandable, but not at all realistic for me. It is easier for me to do it that way and easier for other people too. It is way to hard to import or write all those articles over here, and they get way too big and cluttered on the forum. It’s easier for me to write and edit the articles on that website, and it keeps everything together and organized, making it easier for others to navigate and read. I don’t get any money or anything for all the time I invest into all these articles, just do it for the education of others.

And therein lies the rub. You have links to other sites on your page, right? People go to your site and do a little reading, click on a YouTube or other link, and they start their journey down the rabbit hole and are gone from this site. People have X amount of time to spend surfing the forums. They come here, get led away and don't come back. To put it short, you stole eyes on this forum.

As I said before, no one can control anyone's time and where they go on the internet, but this forum shouldn't be a portal to your pages and beyond.

This isn't just referring to forum members, but guests that might become forum members. Perhaps they bump into your stuff while here and go to the, as you have advertised, ONE STOP WEBSITE FOR ANYTHING RELATED TO THE FORD EXPLORER ST, maybe to never return to this site.

It isn't about what is realistic or easiest for you to publish. If you wish to share your information with this collective group it should be on this site. What you are doing is kind of like coming out and saying, your time is better spent on my site than spending time on ExplorerST.org.

You may not be getting compensated for your work, but you are soliciting people by virtue of your membership here, to your site and it is akin to poaching. More importantly, it's a matter of respect to this forum. @STFan has spent his time and money building this site. He's running a very good site, I'm glad he has done it.

Stepping down now from my DAD BOX.

To the OP, I'm sorry to have screwed up your thread. Welcome to the forum.
