Well I have been on import atlanta for some time now (yes i know not as long as most) but for the first time, I am losing interest in the forum. Where did all the fun go? I remember i'd get on almost everyday and there was tons of funny or knowledgeable threads worth reading. Now I get on and it seems like no one is really online and those that do post make stupid shit that isnt worth looking at.

So how about everyone else? Losing interest or is the lulz still there??

It just seems like a big decrease in the amount of posting

Quite the opposite. There is a HUGE increase in the amount of posts. But they're all geared towards crap. I used to be a WL post whore. Up until the last couple of years, I was always on there. But while the site got bigger and bigger, the quality of the posts got smaller and smaller. Too many people that "know it all" signed on here and you get more head butts than on a a Swiss mountain top. And throw in all the "ATTN: "So-N-SO!!!.....you suck" threads along with some I LOVE LOLI threads and you've got yourself a shitload of crap threads. Now I don't post but a handful of times in the WL and post more than ever outside of it. But as long as Julio and Paul keep me on, I'll not lose interest in the site. I promote it everyday from state to state, lolol. Later, QD.

True on the first part. The only place here that is of any real value to me is the Flea Market, where I met Tech5 (whom you guys prefer to slam). There is almost no useful tech info in the tech sections, and nothing but time-wasting, "I'm BOOOOORRRED" threads in WL. For those of us looking for substantial content, HondaTech is a MUCH better resource. Shame, too. I'm about fed the fuck up with E-thug pussies, and smart-assed retorts.:upchuck::jerkit::wgaf:

It gotten boring a little bit. But everyone has there dought times. But it more active then most car forums in the humor since. I have never been on another forum were there is so much drama. IT fuckin epic. A forum that is so anti noob friendly. Ban Fridays and the whole nine 9 yard. It all great. It funny to see how seriously some people take the internet.

I would just like to thank everyone for helping make IA such a great experince.

Lack of basic grammar, and all the new people who think they are such e-thugs. I have to convince some of my buddies that there are good people on this site. Before I posted much I had the same view as a lot of them, how this site is full of a bunch of ricers who think their stock Honda is gods gift to man. Once I started posting I realized most of the people on here are good people, and not just little Honda rice-boys. The site is full of them, that's for sure, but when you have a site this big its bound to happen.

But on a side note, the lack of grammar and proper sentence structure has DISAPPEARED on this site. If English is not your first language that is understandable, but at least make an attempt to throw some periods and capital letters in your sentence! It is hard to read a whole post with no periods or capital letters. And that is what half of the posts on here consist of now. One of the sites I used to be on ALL the time was DSMtalk.com. They have a rule there that if you do not attempt to post in clear, legible English with at least an attempt at proper sentence structure, you get a warning then you will get banned. It may seem kind of neo-nazi, but it cleaned the site up a ton and made it a much more enjoyable place.

I like IA, I like the people I have met, and I like the flea market. I can contribute my car whoring to this site, and solely this site lol.

It all goes in cycles. Sometimes it's fun, sometimes it sucks. Don't worry, you aren't the only one. You will see about 5 more of these threads in the coming days. That's a part of the cycle, too. Similar threads.

Next – I am all for proper grammar, but please don't preach it if you don't know it yourself :). That is one of my pet peeves – no hard feelings.

I still have my love it/hate it days but most everyone I have met on here really is cool IRL. I just don't give a damn what MOST people post on here anymore or take it seriously. Inculding myself, but yes this is a serious answer.


I'm serious

For real.
