That said Busta has hooked me up several times with questions
That's because most of the old owners have sold up and moved on and the very few left with any technical knowledge can't be bothered to answer illiterate wrx owners using txt spk

its done no good at all, there are more of the chavved up **** heaps on the road now sadly.

but on the plus side clean cars are commanding a premium its just the gap between the wrx with stickers and wing stiffies and the clean sti,spec c etc is getting wider and the average person doesnt know the difference.

The trend has certainly changed.
There's more talk/threads/pics about "chavs" comming from these trolls than there ever would be from the actual supposed " chavs". They think they are doing us a favour by driving them off the forum but i know which i prefer.

Thing is, half the topics and threads are pointless nowadays, there's nothing actually worth reading. Every now and then I'll find a decent topic worth reading but that's getting even more scarce.
Is this what forums is supposed to be? I can understand a bit of a laugh from time to time but it's getting ridiculous.

As was mentioned earlier, it's turning into Facebook type rants.

I left facebook because I can't be bothered with all of the rubbish that happens on there. SN should be a platform for sharing information and problem solving, not arguing and nonsense threads. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a last post in a thread challenge to win.

I think it's because scoobynet has been around for so long now, that basically almost every technical aspect has been discussed several times already.
I must admit I don't come on here much anymore, because like you say all the threads get ruined by the same people, over and over again. Most of the stuff I "need" is already in the archives, and it's only a google search away

Not been on SNET for months and saw this thread and realised what banter I was missing!

And the choice of Chavtastic Anthem larging through the "Kenwoods" to accompany this post would be !

god that paints such a horrific image of a chav in his scooby in Mcdonalds car park, bass bins rattling away in the boot with his mates disscusing his "mods" (fake roof scoop, baileys dump valve, and manual boost valve turned up to 1.5 bar and how wicked his new camouflage graphics look)

At least this thread is slightly more intelligent than the pitiful 'Last person to post' effort, which is witless posting taken to extremes. As you say, same old people talking the same old bollox.

It's quite expensive but in this case you can't polish a turd.
It is plastidip, as I've seen the car in its palsticness and know who the owner is. Its not great, and doesn't have the finish of paint.
