Recently,
I've became fairly discouraged with this site. I get on the site multiple times every day, and each time I get on, I find all kinds of new stuff that irritates me. Mindless, completely-useless posts in off-topic; non-related, stupid, or mean posts that ruin what would be good threads; topic titles that don't follow the rules in buying/selling that have been there for well over a year; people who only come to the site to cause trouble or irritate people; It all irritates me, along with the rest of the site's management. We, the management of the site, think that lately the forums as a whole have gone a bit downhill, but we're curious what all of you think. We're also curious as to what you all think should be done. Pete's in Japan and couldn't get in on the discussion of this idea, but Tim and I are considering changing the off-topic forum to be an "other cars" forum. That most likely won't happen, but we're sick of the completely pointless posts in off-topic. We all also are considering what to do about the people who constantly question others such as in the Lori Ann thread, and what to do about the people who constantly post pointless, off-topic stuff in the Celica forums, and what to do about the people who always post mean stuff on the site, and what to do about people who are mean to girls and treat them as if they've never talked to a girl before. I've had at least four girls talk to me and say that they didn't want to join the site or post in the forums, simply because of the way girls are treated on the site. Tim is sick of it. John is sick of it. Pete is sick of it. I'm sick of it. Tim put it well when he said, "i feel like i havent left highschool yet when i go on 6gc..." We're just wondering, what do you all think about what's happened lately, and what do you think should be done? -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

I come from a forum called www.indycarz.com I've never met ruder people. You can register and check it out. People on that forum make fun of you for whatever you do, and really hate on you if you have a S13 cuyz youre a "bandwagon jumper". When I came to this site, I was so impressed with how nice everyone was, and how laidback it was. A little guff and arugments makes this interesting. But there should be a limit. Coomer, You've done a fin job with this site. If this site wasnt avaible with all the info it has, i wouldnt have bought 6g due to lack of support.
