For everyone wanting to get their friends/significant others/dead relatives into Oppositelock as authors, you can't. Only your friend/significant other/dead relative/potato can ask for themselves in a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . If you make a new post on the Oppositelock front page, the Mods will take 100 internet points from you and tell you to go to a Club Openings post anyway.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

For shits and giggles, I'll tag this post with Club Openings, so if you or a friend are a member of the unwashed masses and want to join Oppositelock, leave me a reply.

DISCUSSION (100)

My dead relatives can join Oppo and vote in Chicago? The dream has finally been realized.

Also don't forget that purchasing a Jalopnik Gold membership includes complimentary Oppo authorship:

For everyone wanting to get their friends/significant others/dead relatives into Oppositelock as authors, you can't.

Only Richard J. Daley can do that. And he's dead, and his daughter-in-law Maggie is still pissed off about KCGX.

At least we have Club Openings tags, otherwise his son might just bring out the bulldozers in the middle of the night.

I tried to use my jalop gold account to get discounts on gas but the attendant claimed not to know anything about the jalop gold gas promotion. Who do I talk to about this issue?

Unfortunately, gas discounts are only avaliable with Jalopnik Gold Platinum Extreme level membership. At your current level, you only qualify for discounts on blinker fluid.

I posted upon the openings page, but allow me to introduce here as well.

I have decide I must no longer lurk as coachrotte33 and I must begin my quest. A search to the far and wide for vehicles that must grace both my garage and imagination are my burden. I must rescue my children from the dragon of CVT and teach them to row their own across the sea of heighweigh. My trusty steed, Effie the 150 who was born in the year of our Lord 1997, has become my daily rider this fall. May she carry me deep into my quest. I thank you for the chance to join the masses, washed or unwashed depending on the day.

I'd like to be able to share some stuff occasionally, if there is still an opening or two left over after Christmas. Hopefully I will get a few more worthy autobahn and Nürburgring experiences while I'm in Germany to share.

Oppositelock is already one of my followers, and maybe I am just doing it wrong, but I tried to post some things already and I didn't see them show up on oppo. I did read the rules :)

Been reading oppo and jalopnik for about a year with a comment or two here and there, but I think it's time that I would actually like to post things. Read the rules and everyone here seems reasonable. Thanks.

This is probably way too late, but I would love to have authorship. I just recently found Oppo on Christmas Eve (I actually just created my account yesterday) and I have been on it everyday since. I wrote something that I thought I could post here, but I obviously did not understand that I needed to have authorship, so it would be great if I could post it soon! I would love to contriute to Oppo. Thank you!

Ryan A. > Party-vi
01/01/2015 at 16:05

I want in. I think I'd be really good, too:

I'm a dick.

Seriously, I'm a dick.

I love to stir the shit.

I often post pornography under posts titled: "Pictures of cars, safe for work."

I sneak political or sensitive topics into aforementioned posts.

I use my sleuthing skills (magnifying glass and nifty hat) to reveal identities.

In other words, I read the rules.

Party-vi > Michael Woyahn
01/02/2015 at 10:08

SO MOTE IT BE!!! AUTHORSHIP APPROVED!

Read the rules , and re-post your RX330 story.

I'd like to be an author.

I've been consuming articles since November like an uninvited Thanksgiving guest that eats the whole pumpkin pie and disappears into the attic like hungry, homeless ghost only to sneak down periodically just to eat the last cookie in the box. Now I'm ready to give back.

Hey I was wondering if I could get authorship to post on OppositeLock. I've just written an post on the Focus RS video that I'd like to share. I've been lurking for awhile and I thought I'd add something to the OppoWorld (whether that is of value or not is debatable).

Party-vi > soFreshAndsoClean

Umm we did have an article in the SF Chronical today though... Google Carlypso.com and about us we are all car nerds. — Hoping to get active here Please!!! We have cool data, you have to trust me on this man!

Party-vi > Carlypso.com
02/20/2015 at 08:00

Assuming Carlypso is going to post informative articles I don't have a problem granting authorship, but I will have an problem if I start seeing articles written purely to advertise your services. Just keep that in mind. Granted!

It's never too late - bam! Granted!

HammerheadFistpunch > GT3lover
02/25/2015 at 15:49

Also, please respect that we don't call out other commentors to mock them here on oppo . I sent your post to drafts because it served only to send people over to the front page to start a thing, or to call out people that may or may not have deserved it. I'm referring specifically to this

And don't be a shit-stirrer either (here or elsewhere that will lead back to Oppo. Specifically this entails no trolling, no troll parties, and no posts attacking other Gawker/Kinja communities - Jezebel, Groupthink, Gawker, etc.).

I know it was in good spirits and in jest, but just heads up for the future.

GT3lover > HammerheadFistpunch
02/25/2015 at 16:01

Oh sorry. I'll try to do better in the future.

HammerheadFistpunch > GT3lover
02/25/2015 at 16:06

No worries, we've all wanted to at one point be we (those who've been here a long time) figured out that laughing at the occasionally hilarious comments from Jalopnik in Oppo ultimately brings more bad than good.

Been reading Jalopnik and Oppo since pre-Kinja, haven't had an account post-kinja to comment, just getting into commenting more. Would like to be able to share stupid photoshops of GTS RS2's that more people would see than just my own blog (which no one sees).

Would eventually like to write some articles as well. Thanks!

Well seeing as how this thread is still clinging to life (at least it was when I got here. If it's dead now it's definitely not because of anything I said. Which would have been an accident. Which it isn't. Because I did nothing).

Anyway, lurking on Jalop since the hazy crazy pre-Kinja days, commenting for a bit but hoping you can hook me up with some of that sweet, sweet Oppo authorship so I can drop knowledge like KRS-One (from Texas. And probably more Pete Nice than Rakim).

Here's my Kinja blog address so you can vet that, 1. I'm not a dick. And, 2. I'm not a dick.

http://claysmithsrevenge.kinja.com/

Oh, my bona fides. I've worked in advertising/public relations since I figured out my BA in Marketing wasn't the best idea and left the industrial electrical firm I repped for and started out writing copy, worked with a firm that specialized in dealership groups which is how I learned a lot of helpful info.

Once I get in I'd love to pitch a series called "Garage of Your Life" or "Lifetime Garage" going through some of the more interesting cars I've owned, not because they're particularly unusual but each has a story behind why they're important to me. But that's down the road.

Thanks!
