I'm just glad the site is here. The stuff like old news is just minor compared to the rest.

One thing to remeber is this is a 1200 dedicated website and as of the last year or so its like members have tried to make it just a Datsun website.
I totally agree. I don't mind hearing about 1000s (us 1200 guys need our history lesson) and about B210 and B310 since they are the succesors and share many parts. But I could really do without all the talk about the 610, 710, 720, Skyline, etc.

Feel free to mention it relative, like "these Skyline wheels fit a 1200"-- that's good.

But "Here's pictures of my Stanza", that's a waste of time for most 1200 people. There's always Ozdat and other general Datsun sites for that kind of thing.

It might be a stupid idea, but would anyone be interested in having a 1200 chat room?

I think this thread is a good idea. If the Branco Bros have any spare time and space to freshen things up they'll have a little list of ideas to help.
If the News on the home page is too time consuming to keep up, maybe they should get rid of it. Add another 10 recent discussions to the list instead.

Or, don't do anything and leave well enough alone.

Just don't pull the plug

Don't take any comments the wrong way. I think sugestions are a good idea. But so are sugestions on why the things sugested are not a good idea.

At the end of last year Danielblues made this thread Webmasters TODO List
His first post explains what is planned and why things haven't changed.
In time when Daniel and Pedro get time, I am sure things will change but the main factor is having time.
Both of them regularly check in on the forum but dont forget that they also like to spend time checking things out like all of us. Who wants to work all the time?
I do recall there used to be a Contact Us button on the top left. My guess is it was removed to prevent members waiting on replies that the boys never have time to reply to all. I have always contacted Pedro through other means and he has always replied and helped me out, before the day is through. And required things do get done, like bullshit threads deleted.
Whats all this mean?
Make sugestions, also make them as to why things arent worth doing. But dont expect things to change unless they are required. With time the boys will get time and can get on with evolving the site. Until then, the site is still operational and as good as its always been these many years.

Dont ever forget that the donation function is always there. Thats one thing that will majorly help in keeping the site up and running and can even help it get bigger and better.
