This awesome forum
Im a member of another forum completely unrelated to this one, I haven't visited the other forum for just over two weeks,and I received a generic email, but an email none the less, saying that my presence was missed,and they want to find out if I'm ok.......it's this kind of attention to detail that makes me feel like I belong to more than an on line community. I haven't been on this forum properly for over three months, and I didn't even get a pm from any of the friends on line. Which didn't really bother me as much as the fact that a number of my forum buddies haven't been on much lately either.......what's happening guys and girls. This forum isn't the community it once was. People on here are becoming increasingly hostile, even towards regulars, mods and the formative members of this awesome forum,let alone newbies.

Re: This awesome forum
This has crossed my mind. The economic climate over the past 2 or 3 years probably contributed as well.......everyone was/is feeling the pinch and tensions were/are running high. It's just sad to see the extent of the knock on effect......well I'm back,I should be a little more involved from now on. Anything I've missed during my absence? How is everyone keeping?

Re: This awesome forum
this is by far the friendliest forum i regularly visit. some of the others i have been a member of for years, but the older guys (been on the forum for years and years) still give grief at the slightest silly question. here there is no such thing as a stupid question cos most of u guys know we all have to start learning somewhere...
i think the only time theres hostility on here is when foreigners try to buy SA buses...

Re: This awesome forum
Thanks Lord of the dark holes, hope you are well. How is the TF coming along? I would read the build thread, but the pictures are too above board for what I'm used to you posting,.....They used to be NSFW and are now all STSK (safe to show kids.).......freaks me out.
