Look I see where the members who have been on here for longer are coming from, but surely just a little tweak and some small fresh ideas put in place will ensure it does remain as the best 1200 site on the net.
For Dattodude to say "If there ain't no news, then there ain't no news....." just surprises me to think that the 1200 scene has been dead since 2003 according to the news page.
Surely all the meets and cruises that have happened since then should appear here, to generate more interest in gatherings etc. Correct me if I'm wrong but they are all archived aren't they?
I see guys trying to organise meets and cruises on the main forum page. If somethings' on then it should be in your face on the front page (obviously moderated).
Don't get me wrong I'm not putting the site down at all just trying to generate a thread that might generate some fresh ideas. Surely if your car sat around for over 3 years "unchanged and modified" you'd want to do something about it??
How about another approach: We all suggest something we think would improve this website and or the forums etc? If something happens all well and good, if not I'll still remain a member
Idea 1: Voting poll about certain 1200 topics (simple yes/no polls e.g Do you prefer old school power or conversions). At a quick glance on a counter you could get involved and vote, no need for a forum, but just keeps people thinking.
Idea 2.: Front page facelift.
Anyone else?
