matt b Posted April 5, 2007 Report Share Posted April 5, 2007 Well i can see that was a complete waste of my time .. oh well Live and learn!No, I think you had a valid point and that more people agree with you than you might think.If you ever look at the stats at the bottom of the homepage, you'll see how many people lurk. It's significant, and I'm sure that most don't want to register for what may be just one small problem, or something that convinces them to take their car to a shop rather than work on it.

Thats not really enough to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RZT5 Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 I know I'm probably not a "valued" member on here as I am usually the one asking questions rather than giving answers but I thought I would chime in anyways. VS is great, its helped me many times, and I've learned tons from it, but as others have said it can be a little hostile at times. It also seems as if people dont take you seriously if you dont have a long list of mods. My car is stock not because I'm not a true enthusiast, but because I have no extra money to modify it. I am a full time university student and get no financial help from my parents, so I literally dont have any money to put into my car no matter how much I want to. That being said, I really appreciate this site. One of these days I'll bite the bullet and buy a supporting membership Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that many choose not to join.. but for a new direction.. why not find a way to encourage new blood to join and maintain existing membership .I dont have the answer for you at this point..but why not get a group of people together and bang something out that would help? Im sure many of us understand that we can only get something out of this site if we put something back into it... well besides errr attitude :) Edited April 8, 2007 by CarVolvo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
