Server Busy
The members. A lot of senior members that helped make this site the great site is once was are gone. It's over run by noobs, pissing matches, Emo G/F trouble threads, and bullshit. Not much technical anymore. See many build threads? How about new track times? Not like it used to be.
this sites a joke now
this **** is annoying.... i know for a fact if he gets 400 people to go premium thats 400*10, so its 4000 dollars, you cant tell me that all the server fees and costs are 4000, he can obviously put some money into the shitty setup to help keep a more reliable site. nasioc does not have this issue and they have more members then this site does and way more traffic.. im seriously done with a site that cant be kept running, im on multiple forums and this one is by far the worst as far as reliability goes.
its carelessness and poor managablility

Raise your hand if you are in IT and know how much a server costs that handles pictures threads user info etc? I am sure a small 700.00 gateway server just doest cut it not to mention the bandwidth to keep it going. /sarcasm
im in IT and if u want to run a site like this its not worth buying a server and paying insane amount for high bandwidth isp...
u go to a hosting company and pay a monthly fee... u could easily run a site like this for maybe 50-100 / month depending on where u go and what u want... and it wouldnt go down

well all i have to say, is why would anyone in their right mind pay or a premium membership on a site that goes down as much as this one does... if this site was more reliable i'd get a premium membership but im just not going to do it in hopes the site will get better.
i've kinda been spending more time at the OTHER site when this one is down cause im addicted to forums... but you can't really blame me... i'd be here if the site was up.

With all the money gained from Premium memberships, apparel, decals, vendor fees and of course advertisements. There should be absolutely NO reason not to have a fast and reliable forum. I'm tired of the slow load times and busy servers.
There needs to be more Moderators as well, but that's a different problem.

Thanks for the “constructive” criticism. I am working with the server company to address the issue. Paying for server management services. I rather not shut the site down while they figure it out.
