    Default What Happened?

    I stopped coming here daily awhile back. I stopped by awhile ago and there was a controversy about another forum being advertised here. I never saw what the other forum was or why anther forum was started. Later I see that Paul quit, and now this place is a ghost town. Can someone tell me what happened in the last six months that killed the site?


    PM is fine if it is something that cannot be discussed openly.

    The site was sold at the first of the year. It's been trying time since, to say the least.

    How are you, Chris. Long time no see. Later, QD.

    Peopled lied to themselves and in mass threads so much saying IA is dead that it finally DID die. It's nobodies fault but all of the members that quit posting.

    Actually I think we all grew up. Well..not ALL.

    I knew it was sold, but I cant believe that alone killed the site

    Been doing good man, got away from the internet for a bit, dropped 50 lbs, and actually started going outside again. I took up riding stand up paddle boards, and pretty much paddle when Im off work.



    Crappy picture but it shows what it is, you and the family would enjoy it. There is a guy up in Blue Ridge who rents boards and gives lessons(kids get lessons free with parents), real awesome guy and good rates. I want to go back up there and paddle down the Toccoa soon.

    The vibe here changed before the sale, I know that I changed too and we just went in different directions. Cars stopped taking a large priority to me awhile ago but the WL was always entertaining.

    Aside from Obama, Simon, and "the man", I blame Thacker.

    The server was too busy for the members and its database was having issues so "the man" added more google ads to make people even more angry. Now no one posts here that its fixed.....either that or it works because not many people post like they used to.

    We had some server issues that got fixed. That killed traffic for a minute.. It took a little to long to fix. But we are up and running. So everything is good.
