Arrow IS it me or has the site become a diff environment??

This would be more for the guys that have been here for a while, that can look back and see.. It seems to me that while the site is still great it has changed in a few ways, that I don't agree with fully.. Am I the only one who feels or thinks this way???

yea different but not sure how to explain it! still helpful and more technical than any other sites i frequently visit! I have made a few friends and met a ton of people who enjoy the same thing i do, but also there are others who don't fit in i guess you could say! Although they are trying.

Still a great site and still helpful, but thunder550 is gay and bill is gettin senile haha! jfw you guys!

I see alot of thread being deleted because of 1 to 2 peoples disagreeing with them...i know i have had my racial threads in the past those are not what im talking about. Most recent the thread about the marine punching his teacher...i am not a true believer in god...OMG MAY I BE BANISHED TO HELL i feel it was closed for no real reason...it was a good story i liked it, i didnt take offense i laughed, but because 1 person cried to bill...it was closed.

I have been here since 2004, and i feel the site has grown for the better, but lately i see it getting worse and worse, people who cannot accept criticism and have a my way or no way opinion have become the top dogs and i feel its hurting the site...good people away from the site, bad on.

Also...in before locked....

IB i feel is running the site the best they can...they have alot of other sites to oversee as well...i think its PT.nets power figures that are a issue.

Im not going to put names around...chris is probably on my better friends on here and in real life (wow i sound gay...meh) he does his job, he doesnt delete every thread with out giving a chance to level out, "most admired" is not admired by me...

Thats my opinion and i dont give a flying...well i dont care what you say

seems like some of the older members have given up on projects/trucks and gone on to other things, or they just don't post alot anymore... It also seems we don't have the big/custom build threads like we used to... Honestly when we move into our new house i am starting a new project that I will probably be posting on other forums instead of this one because it will not be a truck build, but it will have a truck motor

I think people don't have the play money like they used to also... But yes the site has changed since I have been on here and plus its getting close to winter and I think it slows down in the winter time. That's just my .02 cents.
