I agree to an extent about what you are saying, maybe the fact that new members get flamed by people like you every time they post, is why the forum is tapering off so to speak.
As far as the "dealership biased drivel" is concerned, in that regard I am just like you, and will tell it like it is. I've worked at a dealership, ie, for the manufacturer, for 9 years and I know what will fly and what wont.
Considering this is a Subaru forum, a Subaru biased view is not a bad thing.
I'm sure the forum will continue, in one form or another, with or without you, or anyone else for that matter.

At the risk of being flamed...

It is what it is, a Car Forum where we all have a common interest, Subi's, and yes there is some banter and jokes as people carry on personal jokes or funny comments, but seriously is that SO bad?

The forum still does have some helpful info and personally have got to know a group of PWRX'ers that are great to catch up with outside of here. Honestly I can say I have never met so many helpful people, who are genuine and willing to help you fix something or change something over for you at the drop of a hat !! Or even just give you that nudge in direction in making it look better, go faster etc I have made some good friends on here and with so many different people/personalities surely there is going to be difference of opinions and what people like or don’t like ?

Whilst the banter and flaming’s come along with it, it’s like a TV channel if you don’t like it turn it off, switch over to a different thread.....stab your eyes out with a blunt pencil….who cares just get on with it already and each take what you want from it.

TJ I have a feeling you will be in another Subaru in no time and as long as I’m not the one being flamed I enjoy reading your posts !!

edit: everyone's definition of drivel is going to differ greatly, but many newer members and those not so knowledgeable would basically post nothing and contribute nothing even if it is just Non-WRX Discussion. As mentioned above, might as well just turn this place into a FAQ/Wiki with little interaction.
Couldn't agree more. It's important to have a difference of opinion, as if we all thought the same, we would have trouble 'moving forward'. It's a common idea in philosophy.

But yes the drivel can be narrowed down to the members not so knowledgeable who only post in non-wrx discussion and in others welcome threads. I could think of a few from the top of my head, but would prefer not to shame/offend.


The social interaction is definitely required, but there needs to be a time and place.

Absolutely and utterly correct. Like I said, this discussion is beyond the thoughts of just me.
