I am no lowrider; hell I don't even know much about cars. I have done the tune-ups and changed tires, but when it comes to cutting springs and putting in hydraulics, I'm a dummy!
What I do know something about is running an internet site with a bulletin board. I think what you guys face is going to be a challenge as has been noted on LIL. My site for starters is a group of fish geeks that are for the most part, conservative. Sure there is the occasional "turd" but they are usually short lived in the communities.
What I have seen that was very effective is to not stoop to these peoples level. Smart, whitty replies are what will usually stray people off that have nothing to contribute but sarcasm. Stick to that, good moderating and keep a clean atomosphere and your on to something.
Just my input.
