So what does everyone think?

[RHondatheHonda]

This site has gone downhill since this summer. I've been here lurking since October of '06 and I can say that this is the lowest point that I have seen in my stay here. I'm not saying that my stay has been very long or that I'm of any authority on the matter, just stating a thought-out opinion and looking for other's thoughts. So, where is the community? Where is the love? I remember when we weren't hondatech.

I use to stay on this site allday-everyday. I loved reading every thread about everything. I liked hearing about everyones life events and reading the backandforths. It was like a networked family just interacting and being cool with oneanother. We had asshole uncles and dumbass cousins and wise grandparents- ready to tell the tales and share knowlege. I was hooked. Hours of reading a day, swear it, but now- this site has become something that I look at once a week for a few reasons.

First reason being that offtopic, and the community in general, has degraded itself to something not worth caring about. Gone are the days where you could start a thread about something and have it stay about that thing without being flamed or it just getting out of hand. The laid back originals that actually helped and chatted are becoming less and less, while the new, more hostile regulars are just bullying people and trying to do things for the lulz. This is not 4chan. This is not Ebaums. This is not SomethingAwful. Stop posting fucking memes out of context. here's a meme for you-Newfags. This is NOT Honda-Tech. So stop being complete asshats. We are a community with a special interest in the cb7 chassis code, if you can't be a legitimate part of the community go to the degenerative cess pools that are 4chan,ebaums, somethingawful and honda-tech.

The problem mostly lies in the fact that noone respects anyone else here anymore. You can't have an opinion without some immature or pointless reply involving a fucking internet meme.

Someone says something off color and everyone goes- 'OOOHOHHHOHHOHH, you're gonna get it." 'banhammer' and '****'. Again what is this 4chan?-"85000000 get!" Stop being trolls. I knew that this site was going to hell in a hand basket when I saw all the mindfucks posted up about a month or two ago. It all started with a dead girl and ended with a dead community.

I just feel that a lot of this site's better points--diy write ups, all the tech info, pretty much everything except off topic, is being completely thrown out the window by how shitty our actual interaction is getting. Hell, not to offend chris, but it's a sad day when the best new thread is by Cvc7chris. If anyone remembers the fallout that came from his early days here a year ago, then the point of the statement will be gotten. Again, not to offend you Chris, You're alright in my book these days, one of the more relaxed, least dickish members floating around.

This is just me talking, am I the only one who is seeing this decline? What say you cb7tuner?

tldr Cb7tuner is starting to suck, because of ass-hattery.

i think it has something to do with the alignment of the moons.

something like this happens every year. It gets super hectic for 1 day and it'll go back to normal the next.

Last year was 4thgenaccord.

[RHondatheHonda]

the first reply would be the exact thing I was complaining about.

also. come to think of it this is about the same time as all that crazy shit happened with chris last year.

You said it..


And who are you again?

people take the internet way too serious. It's a car forum. It's not a "lets all be a huge family and hold hands and never get into arguments" forum.

If you want a tight knit family, go start a different forum.

If you want to learn a thing or two, either search because it has more than likely already been covered, or start an educated thread about it.

Its okay ... Im just here to make my work day go by a bit quicker. Not to be in a big group hug or anything.

[d112crzy]

If you don't like it, leave.

If you don't like it, and want to do something about it, the only thing you can do is meet up with people around your area and form a family from that. Don't waste your time talking to people you're never going to meet. Why get your panties up in a bunch? It's a waste of energy.

You need to understand that in any community, there will be asshats. There are over 5000 members here, some of us are cool, some of us are whiners, some of us are racist pricks, some of us are.. .You get the picture. It's a microcosm. Occasionally it seems that the bad outweighs the good. I've been here a year or so, and it's a good site. I'd given up on finding a decent Accord forum and was sorely missing the Corolla site I used to run until I found this one. I've gotta say that if you're not enjoying the site, either go away and come back later, or stop reading the posts you don't like. I also think you're mistaken. I've been reading threads and posts from way back in the day, and there was a lot more flaming and asshattery going on then. Things that would definitely get you banned now. Like real life, things come and go. You deal with it and you move on. I understand that you're a long term lurker. That's cool, but if you aren't a contributing part of the community, you really don't have the right to bitch about it's problems.

Ok look, i'm not saying that we were a literal family, or like some sort of commune. the point i was trying to get across was that this sites communtiy has dropped off abit. off topic used to be fun now its just a group of jerks trying to see who can be doucheiest. There were arguments but they were actual arguments not 'dur hur hur lol wut. your dumb' arguments. that aspect is a more and more common thing here these days. i'm just pointing it out and asking if anyone else cares or notices. guess not.

i've learned quite a bit from searching and reading, as stated in my first post i believe.

no man voice you opinion man . Fuck man thast one thing i cant stand about the forum. One person says something correct and some ass hate feels the need to clown. Next all the monkeys are cosigning. Seriously man its better just to lurk and add helpful replys to people that need it.

Like the top person that I dont like is owequitit. (What kind of a fucking screen name is that? the translation would be something like what you have done has caused me to speak a phrase which conncerns my well being. ) He is a dick. If any one has an opinion he feels his is better which is often in reply with self wit.

Next person I dont like is d112crzy i mean this dude is full of shit which is himself. I mean you learn to tune a fucking engine and now you rock socks? WTF? Sit down man, you might feel like a badass and you display it through your post but its a car forum not a forum to see whom can make another person leave for not knowing a subject.

every one else i really dont care about

yeah i rant its off topic bitch

[d112crzy]

sounds like you have a problem with anyone that calls out your stupidity.
