The problem with this forum is the level of maturity. That's the number one problem. As long as you have people acting like children, it will have to be policed like children.

Oh, and can you please show in the past , oh i don't know, six months, where i've been starting shit on this site please, spotted mango? You'd be hard pressed to find it.

I don't consider pointing out the fact that people are cheap asses and then telling them if they spent more money on their car it would work better, alluding to the age old adage of 'you get what you pay for' starting shit. I consider that a very healthy dose of reality that people working and living in the real world deal with on a day-to-day basis.

If you police kids, they get mad.
if you let them run free, they think you ignore them

I think the number one thing that will make this forum work better is by limiting the number of posts per day a user can make. This way, their posts have to count. They can't get a billion rep points for being stupid, or post whoring, or who knows what else.

Just my $.02 from having to run a sight that has just as much drama in the drifting community with a much smaller base, yet we keep shit in control very easily.

+1 on this..... the issues involved are detained to some extent when you pushed the post limit on certain people on the other site

It seems this forum is all about the "im da best driftar" and "Yo DrFting is da Shiz yo!" attitude. 90% of you kids need to learn a thing of two about real racing and motorsports...so I say just delete the forum.
i say its people liek him...and all the red necks, and worst of all the fwd ppl with their civics and shit.. they come in here and talk about how gay drifting is... without ppl like this guy.. there wouldn't be problems like this..

I moderated this forum daily when I had my computer I just got it up and running yesterday so I will be back as before. I am in the middle of a divorce just moved to tampa from st pete and am starting a new job tomarrow and it has been quite a journey but things are slowing down to a pace now where I have time to get on and all that kiddie porn is off my computer now so it working again so like it or not Im back...and I think its time to start a **NWS** thread to lift morale

and these "O.G's" are so hard core fifa..but they arnt. drifters in japan suport drifting. not o.g drifters. drifting, they dont talk shit when someone get's into it after watching a movie. cuase as long as there INTO it, sall good to them.
i mean i know lots of people skated or biked or shit when younger.
skating, your all down with each other cuase you skate, and like to rip shit uppp. same with drifting in most places. atleast thats how it shoulkd be( but yes there will be the fags who are anoying, and do nothing for the sport but bring drama, like jake the bryek lol)
but drifting in america will never be like this, cuase its COOL to not be cool with new people. i mean shit, its cool to smoke crack too right? fuckin lets hit them crack pipes!!!!
but drifting in america "fail's" cuase its not about drifting, and who loves it, who lives for it, who doesnt, who just liked it...its only about who is O.G..for the most part, not all groups of people are like this keep in mind.


well i bet that doesnt make sense, cuase shit, i dont make sense. but yeah just my 2cents.
whats an O.G.????

Basically, to be an O.G. of drifting, you have to be in No Ants.
No, seriously. You think i'm kidding, but I'm not.

There's nothing wrong with not being an O.G. It's not like you'll be looked down apon, or laughed at, or not cared about by the O.G.'s. It's not like you'll be disrespected or ignored by the O.G.'s, so why should it matter?
