The search feature here is a step below serviceable.
Does having the edit button removed help the moderator(s) here?? Anyone care to chime in on that? Is there an alert given to moderators every time we edit and do normal edit-free posting???????

As has been pointed out many times, the edit feature is broken and may or may not be fixable without upgrading the forum software to a newer version. I believe the admins are considering the upgrade.
I highly doubt anyone is notified when a user edits a post.
Somewhere on this site I have a long post about Royal Purple being a Group IV (PAO) based oil. I have communicated several times with David Canitz, Tech Services Manager with Royal Purple and he says it's Group IV and their racing oils contain Group IV & Group V. He said they do not use any Group III in their products.

When I spoke with RP at SEMA they shucked and jived about the Group IV question and any other sort of technical question. I got the impression that the RP guys would think anyone at BITOG was wacko for being interested in oil.
Synerlec is super secret stuff that only 2 or 3 people are said to know about.
The most I got out of them was that RP contained perhaps some mix of Group IV or other 'synthetics' and mineral oil to dissolve additives.
If RP wanted to get me interested in their product they failed miserably...they were smug and condescending.
Redline's booth was very low key and friendly and they answered my questions without any tap dancing or sneers.
Mobil 1 and Castrol Syntec had great booths and very savvy reps who read the scripted lines beautifully...I couldn't learn a thing talking to these guys.
Can you provide any evidence? And I'm not talking about well polished Tech Line scripted answers.

The first paragraph is exactly why I don't add anything to the oils I use.
RP puts a heavy emphasis on additives.
RL plays up the Base oil.
...the others both.

box,
how can it be meaningless and without merit?
the oil corporations spend billions developing, testing and hyping their oils with much sales emphasis on base oil quality and advantages
they spend millions on legal fees depending their base oil a nd formulation patents and copyrights
all on little old us, the oil consumer
will Mobil have to use a small s in Synthetic now? or do they get to use the BIG #@$%!.
there's gold in them thar oil pans, boys but it doesn't show up on a VOA or any lab testing

true the big boys spend millions to fool us more... most of the rest of the big companies except the botique oils..my opinion....
iam glad that we have this site and experts to spot all that.
some of motul's synoils are pao...but their 300 series are 100% grp 5.
