Unhappy Has Scoobynet gone **** up?????

I used to love this forum. Hence the massive post count.
Now, I hardly bother. The pervs are in the Adult section, yet for the life of me I can't think why??? If you are so desperate, google is your friend
Not stirring here, just trying to get some feed back on members.
It has died Scoobynet was my tension sheet from a hard days graft, not now
Anyone else feel the same

I'm not sure it has died, but certainly it is much quieter. One of the problems is that Subaru's are not really as popular as they once were or certainly not as 'different' so there is a lack of new members.

Where else do people chat?

Changed a bit. As much as people say? No.

To many threads complaint about the changes and lack of posts though. If you want to say something say it FFS.

BOTW is ok, but NWS so will it replace SN? Not without some major changes and Tam is too much of a perve to make them.

I visit less too, but then I don't have a Subaru and so only visit the non car related stuff. Face it, Imprezas now for sale < 2k so different demographic comes on here.

Forgive me if Im wrong, but were you not a hardened member of the 'Post Whoreing Gang' hence your high post count.

Post Whoreing doesnt count in my book, never did never will.

Starting a thread in Muppets and posting ... (dot, dot, dot)

Then ---

Then ,,,

Then $$$

And so on, means nowt to me.

I will never judge anyone by their post count, but their post content.

No offence.

Agree with Yoza and on top of that this topic has already been raised at least 5 times in the last 3 months and overall people have been saying it for years.

I still struggle with slow page loading, this is the only website that does it.
So in return I spend less time here now, as I cant be bothered waiting for the pages to load.

I still visit daily, but not several times a day like I use to.

I'm still here, but my interest has wained somewhat. Not really sure why, muppets section used to really interest me, but now it does not NSR is ok, so I still read this, but don't post that often. I am busier in my life now, so have less time to mess about on the internet.

Oh, and the site is a bit slow. It is annoying waiting to post, or load a page. I have not analysed the issue to see if there is any sort of pattern. Just seems to be random slow downs to me.

It's certainly deader than it was, no real characters any more, everyone walking on egshells or Stu says goodbye.

Not been the same since it started being a money mine

For me, i like the fact the SN Clique has disbanded. I hated all the pointless topics/posts that no-one else "got".

It's much more normal now

Not just me then
Yoza, none taken. I'm not a big fan of your watch threads (no offence) but agree with your comment about content not quantity.
Some of the threads in NSR as well as Muppets were great and very funny, some were ghastly
It appears now as if people just want to whinge about the Mods/Site. Yeah, yeah. I've just had a whinge.
Maybe I am having a touch of nostalgia

There are very few names that I now recognise , which is a same really as there were some real characters about at one time.

p.s new name registered as I can't for the life of me remember my old name, it's been that long since I was here last
