What’s happened in here
this place used to be the central scooby place with loads of people even the parts section was booming when I last had a Impreza just a few years ago .
|
facebook killed most of the forums with there "groups" that they call clubs
|
Facebook is so annoying I don't understand why it's preferred to a proper forum?
|
This was a great forum aswell a spent more time on here than I did working
|
Facebook is instant, simple and easy to scroll through.
I prefer the knowledge stored on here compared to facebook as most of the experience, knowledge and correct advice has long gone. pwople on Facebook comment by what someone told them rather then factual. more often then not I revive an old thread here then ask on fb |
Where on Facebook, though?
I'm thinking I need to expand my Facebook use a bit, because it's really dead here now. |

Probably because most Facebook groups believe us knowledgeable folk are the idiots as we usually correct most the bull**** advice and get called trolls or old men lol |

I've had to justify myself more times than I feel comfortable on facebook groups. The worst by FAR is Subaru Army. Total bunch of w4nkers. |
I quite like the bunch we have on SNET these days, leave the teens to it on FB and once they have blown their cars up they can come on here cap in hand.
Would like a few more of the old guard to come back though. |

I also believe photobucket helped kill all the forums off when they suddenly stopped hosting pictures over night and all these build threads, info threads and years of technical knowledge became next to useless. None of them have really recovered and life moves on to platforms that ear easier to access on phones etc.
Personally I still love this place, quiet now but nowhere near as bad as some others like the Forester forums I'm on. |

Cant move for the tumbleweed on the fozzy forums Andy :lol1:
By all comparison this place is buzzing! |
Am not a big fan of the Facebook groups myself I still keep in touch with a few who have since dropped out the scene but have scoobys. I just fined the whole big family thing gone like we use to have as big events
elvington. Even the mcrea gathering that was epic. I would say that far to many of these cars are being broken aswell but that’s just life I guess even when it was the ford scene years ago . |
I never made it to the mcrae gathering years ago and massively regret it.

Wow that feels almost like this place used to feel like :)

To be fair it's getting better on here as more and more people head back to forums for quality content.
|
Gotta agree with Juggers - I think people are realising that there are too many giving bullsh!t information and so they are heading back to the Forums where the better-quality knowledge base can be found: S/Net, 22b, etc

i've never even been on either Facebook, or Twatter...seriously... All i ever hear about them is how terrible they are.
|
Ditto, don’t use FB myself, doesn’t interest me one bit. Type RA forum is still very active and is a great forum.
|
What ever happened to 22b.com that was another brilliant forum
|
Type ra is great forum with lots of early cars being saved.
