Duncan Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Since we are being philosophical in here, I just want to say that I think there is value in a place where Skyline focused but not single pointed people can discuss cars, in a moderated environment with some minimum level of respect. There are other places around if you want something else, either less moderated, more generic, or more specific. Thanks for keeping the place alive for so many years Christian, with recent events I've been thinking a lot about the old days, friends we've made and lost through here and how SAU has made it in one form or another through so much change in the world. 17 years now. 5 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477433-why/page/2/#findComment-7908667 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leroy Peterson Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I think we should close the forum and move permanently to Facebook so we can put up with 100 more people like Slap and answer the same questions every day regarding failed AFMs, cam angle sensors and what oil to use in for a basic service. 1 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477433-why/page/2/#findComment-7908714 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty much how I look at it. Plenty of people prefer the lack of moderation, quick responses and convenience of facebook. SAU is deliberately different, and I think the quality of the content is better as a result. 5 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477433-why/page/2/#findComment-7908733 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's have a Skyline remembrance day cruise. Can be a car cruise where we all use our euro SUVs and tow our Skylines on trailers.

The age of facebook being preference is surely dying. I find it a very hard place to take things seriously purely due to those reasons you mention. And I agree content quality is far better on SAU.

Old man style, I rather these forums stay in the format. Easy enough to search through. If you want to type incoherent shit with a random picture that has nothing to do with your post, do it on shitbook. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477433-why/page/2/#findComment-7908825 Share on other sites More sharing options...
