Would it help I was rude to all these younger people like I used to be? it was funnier then yes?

Rather than waffle on about the why's, I think the main reasons have been mentioned. I find myself barely posting any more yet like you log multiple times per day in the hope there is something interesting to read... Or even do.
So any suggestion to change this mindset?
I buy a GT again, tune it and inspire a generation like I did before? well I don't really have money for a toy car at the moment. My K14XON plate is currently on a Mazda 2.
Dan,
you've just written something i've felt for months, i think half the problem is that this place isnt a community anymore, the older members who had punto's have sold and moved on but still hang around(where else are we going to go...) and for me the site isnt active enough and bores me(no i wont f**k off just yet).
we log on 3/4 times an hour(if not more) hoping to find something to read or respond to but for me i read stupid questions that have been covered over and over and i have to stop my self replying fir a moan about how to use the fcuking search button.
all the girls left, and with it all sense of purpose! haha
I know what you mean though, even I seem to be spending less and less time on here.
I think half of it is we don't have any meets any more, but when we did it was only the "old core" that turned up.

Another thing that winds me up is dragging old posts up and wondering why they cant get an answer, ffs look at the date on the post!!!
You've got it spot on dean
Ive been coming here for about 3 years now, and even after i sold the gt would log on numerous times every day to read up on interesting projects. But like others have said, the only interesting project i have seen lately is sams mk2 and the guy doing the 20vt (sorry to any ive missed). now, i too log on click new posts, oh same sh1t different day and then go else where. A few times lately i may have even been spotted being snappy with noobies but for christ sake, are some of them really that dumb. Do you still get the welcome pm when you register explaining about introducing yourself and using the search function, becasue it seems no one searches and there are no intro's. its always "hi, ive got a problem".
Thats my input, 27 by the way if that has any relevance
havnt seen Puntoboy post in a little while either, maybe its just me. Looking at the join dates i can't really call myself one of the "old lot" but I agree with all that's been said.
When I first started on here with my sporting I'm pretty sure even I wasn't that stupid. And if i was i tried the search function and 9/10 times found what i was after.
The lack of interest in the forum is the reason i never re-newed for the 3rd year by the way
