wisdom from the mods. I have seen this cycle a few times, and i know exactly what you are talking about half
lol well hey, if its the only way to make him happy, i say give it to him
I also remember when i first came to the site. i was over in .com and already had alot of knowledge about the cobalt, cobalt future, and the ecotec family of engines. Everyone that greeted me was nice (and a lot of them are no longer here
). I had no problem finding things on the site, and if i had a question i just asked. I really love the site and I would gladly pay 20 a year for the site

so i agree with halfcent, he has some good points, many members just miss what CSS used to be. at the same time many of these members feel like the administration of this site as not done enough to prevent this change.
CSS used to be sortof an awkward family with a huge sense of community.
Of course you cant always prevent change from happening as it always will, but when its a forum you love and put some time into, i can see how some older members might get a bit bitter.

what about m-dub, steddy, and some of the recent bannings of older members....they just want the normal site back...they are tired of a lot of the nonsense that goes on....
halfcent i hope you are not referring to those guys as the trouble makers and martyrs in your post....as those are good guys and i cant wait for their ban to be lifted...

Im talking about the original post ******, and great people who made this site what it is.
Its not just me but there are ALOT of older members that we all knew and loved that do not come to this site because of the new flock of ignorant members on this site. Im tired of reading about people ragging on people just for typing things certain ways.
Just a few moments ago i saw someone bust on someone who said they are putting nos in the car.. and more than 5 people jumped down this guys throat. The worst part was.. is that he actually purchased a NOS bottle.. thats what he wanted and thats what he said he got. and everyone jumps to F and the furious crap and "naws" .. this site is just getting really old. Im calling out the true people who knew myself and a few others including reignmaster or reignss. dc5 and all those other cool guys.. We gotta do something about this site, even if its the admins need to clean out some of these kids...
anyone else agree? disguss?

This is the short sightedness I was talking about. While I know before I even type this that you are going to disagree, the people you mention are the ones mostly responsible for the "nonsense" that you are talking about.
The truth is, there is nothing wrong with the site.

Before this become the very kind of thread that we don't allow, I have to close it. But understand this. People with negative attitudes are the problem. Not the site itself.
