Hi,
Everyone complained that the crap build up was taking away from the technical threads.
So a spot where crap could flow freely without harming anyone was introduced.
Now the complaint is noone is talking enough in the technical sections.
Like I said, actions will speak louder than words here.
If you think that's how you'd like to use the forum here to have a better experience, please, do it.
I'm not arguing with anyone.
Cheers,
Nik
You're not reading this right.
Stop for a second Nik. Pull your head out for a moment and smell the roses, not what you think smells like roses.
The complaints are this:
1) GT is becoming ridiculous in size and content.
2) Technical content is being lost in there with people asking questions in there.
3) Only dedicated forum whores can keep up, and is alienating members who can't commit as much time there.
4) Genuine lack of technical discussions on the forums.
Now consider it from the owner's point of view of the forums: He's essentially paying countless dollars so you all can talk crap. Nothing against this, but this is a specific car forum, and I understand not everyone is as technically minded as others, but the original intention of establishing this forum was to unite members from all walks of life, with various models, together, to share technical knowledge, and facilitate an easy exchange of parts
Lately... All it has been is the GT, with an occasional tech thread. Boring as batshit I must admit, apart from the tight inner circle that's the GT regulars. Waste of bandwith if you consider it from the perspective of the original intentions of the forums.
Josh - a little dissapointed about your comment re: it's their problem. Yeah. Nah. You should know that it is everyone's problem. I don't think I need into going into why...
I think there needs to be a little bit of a shift of focus for the forums. I agree codeburn3r - need a chatbox back. non specific data that's being stored en masse, is a waste.
