Social media cut the head off of localised forums of all types. Facebook groups is what happened.

Not true. EVERY other forum I frequented is still alive and well and active.

This one was run by a bunch of homo erotic obsessed “peaked in high school Rob Lowes” that bullied new members. By scaring off all the new members and old ones losing interest, this forum has become a ghost town. This is a result of the constant one upping of who could be a bigger prick and pack mentality. Sucks but it is what it is.

For drift stuff head over to zilvia.net, it’s a graat site for nissan s/z chassis and a lot of drift related info.

IB Forums bought it a few years ago and started the downward spiral.

I can somewhat agree with Sideways but then again we’re assholes to people on FB groups who do the same annoying shit they did here and they don’t leave those groups. I feel like Hooch and Sideways both have valid points in why it died. My other forums haven’t gone this far down (yet) but activity is definitely in severe decline.

Maybe investing in a good simulation gaming system. Xbox 1 has a game called Forza, or Playstation has a really good game called Gran Turismo. Both of those games cover a lot of ground in racing as a rookie and all the way to professionalism as a race/drift driver. Thanks, have a good day.
