What can we do?

[whitedragon551 5,000+ posts]

As some of you may know the old mods and the new rules have kind of run some people off. As such other forums have started to pick up. This is where our user base comes in.

What can we do to get more active members. Id like to get some input and then run some of the top ideas across the mods and Goob to try and improve on the already good forum we have.

Doubt that would happen. Our forum is paid for by the ads. Without Google's cooperation this place wouldnt exist so we have to follow those rules.

Im talking about adding features, changes to what rules we have, etc.

I was being 100% serious, and caco managed to do it. ANT has put ads all over that ish.

Honestly, I think the rules are fair here.

Yes, *** sells, but not for a car audio web site. Plus, the advertisers as a whole wouldn't allow it. Neither would the server company where we are hosted, although it's a dedicated server, etc.

If we are losing too many members, then obviously the rules the have been implemented recently are too strict and need to back off a little though...

I don't think any of the rules here are too strict. If people don't like being professional, they don't have to be here. There's no reason to be immature. That's why there are other forums - for the immature morons.

Ant pays someone to write the code for those ads.

The only rules that are really cracked down on are the classified rules and the racial slurs.

A huge part of forums is BS and a huge part of BS is maturity or lack there of.
