[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 6697676, member: 549629"] The only valid point against this site Ive seen you or any other CT fan pose is the server issues. Ive said the same thing. I was saying 'fix the server issues first' the very first day these most recent aesthetic changes were implemented a couple weeks ago. You allude to other problems based on Goob's lack of presence here, but dont give a single example. Bots cant be controlled because the site admin isnt around to ban IP's and mods cant do it? I find it pretty easy to avoid the bot threads, as annoying as their presence may be. And Im sure it doesnt help the server problems any having them here taking up bandwidth, but this site has had the same server problems since long before the bot issue became anything significant. So that's it? That's why CT was made, because you cant stand to look past the viagra and chinese shoe threads? Or because the site is down regularly for a few hours in the middle of the night? I agree its the people, talking about the subject (car audio), that make this site great. I disagree its a small portion of the people. As much as I appreciate you considering me one of those people, if I left tomorrow, this site would still thrive. As it continues to do so even with several of the people you mention (or are thinking about) not coming here any more, or coming here less. If one person, or even a small group of people, start thinking they make or break this site, they are just fooling themselves (like MoT). This debate seems to have two heads. Some people like yourself discuss the car audio resource aspect of it, others talk about the more entertainment aspect of it (deerhunt painting himself black etc). CT is, self appointly, not a car audio resource. And the car audio population of this site dwarfs CT, so I dont find that a valid argument. The entertainment aspect... that is what CT is all about. If you, or anyone else here or there, finds more entertainment there than here on the t-dome, awesome.
