Why? Seriously?I`m still hanging on, but it`s hard.
The VA Chapter was one of the most active, and there have been less than 30 posts in 6 months. The laissez faire attitude of the ownership in addressing the site`s many problems over the last few years, and the subsequent crashes drove many enthusiasts to other sites...it is what it is.
I see more posts on the "other" site in 5 minutes compared to activity here, and it`s because former members experienced 2 big failures. If a site takes a few more seconds to load or hiccups/lags, then people are going elsewhere because there are too many more reliable options. Failure to address the issues, not once but twice, was the last straw for even our Chapter Pres.

No I understand why you would hang elsewhere and not post here but why delete your account? It may pick up again someday.

ok it will not let me delete my account anyways. its just not the same as it used to be on here like (02TonHog) said it used to be one of the most active sites!! also i dont even have a Ford truck anymore. atleast for the time being???September 30, 2012
I still check in from time to time just to see if anyone`s returned, but it`s really just the same few guys hanging on. I point blank asked if people would be willing to come back to the site, and the resounding answer was no.Remember when *is* coming up because of a craptastic response to a crash? Remember the galleries failing? Remember the first crash, and how those many issues weren`t addressed leading to an epic crash? People went elsewhere because it took WEEKS for the site to come back up the first time. When they returned, the errors persisted, and mods kept apologizing for ownership that showed absolutely zero sense of urgency in even the most basic site maintenance.
I`m tired of apologists covering for ownership, because if anyone with the power to do something actually cared enough to do it, the site would be busy. Instead we get half-arsed service, and despite the epically low traffic I still get errors when I access anything other than my direct link to the VA Chapter.
Putting it politely, the ownership let the site die and have done absolutely nothing to bring the site back.

Just to let you know, it took 5 TIMES to get my last post through. THAT`s why people aren`t going to come back, even if they don`t delete their accounts."Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?"
