What A Difference 12 Months Make

[Chris.S]

This time last year id just left my Lexus job for better times at Volkswagon and serveral PM's a day asking to order parts. 12 months later and yes the PM's have reduced in quantity as most members know i can't get stuff now. Still have a lot of product knowledge stored in this grey matter of mine though lol

Also noticed and don't know wether its jus me or not but members rarely talk to me or reply to my posts.

Maybe its me being paranoid or something and don't think im having a go at anyone because im not and far from it but it has seems to me that because i cant get cheap bits now im not worth talking to

I don't think most people are only out for what they can get.

[whiteman]

I think some people are out there to get what they can but not all of us....

hope you are ok mate

nice to hear from you but I don't get on hear as much as I use to with comitments...

[bensyer]

i dont even no you, but id talk to you lol

thats just the way it is though mate, most people are your closest bud if you got sumint they want, after tht you are just left with yer real mates i guess

[john99t-reg]

i understand how you feel mate, car forums relations are not real friendships most of the time they are just because we have something in common. You leaving your job i think would have had some effect but i think the biggest thing is what's on your driveway now. I and many others can't say much about a golf other than seems a nice car, so it's a conversation killer, and after leaving nissan forum 6 months ago i have not been on since as just moved onto here. At least loc has a general forum etc so driving a lex is not as important.

[Tony-Bones]

I think it's more the case that the forum members are a new mix, don't take it personally mate :)

[eddieblock]

maybe you should talk about something that people will answer too ! such as cows can,t walk down stairs , you can,t lick your own elbow, and LASER is an acronym of Light Amplification by the Simulated Emmision of Radiation. or looking back on this post probably not ! lol

[ROYT]

Agree with WIM above, just a lot of different members, annoying for me are people

who ask for info but never give an update if the info was useful.

Thereby helping themselves but offer no help to others....or is it me thats the paranoid one?

[eddieblock]

i was advised not to eat yellow snow, and i must say it was great advice !

I think the membership (at least in terms of who makes frequent posts) changes all the time - so there are bound to be periods where the level of chat that revolves around you goes up, and periods where it goes down. Since you used to work in a Lexus dealer, and this is a Lexus forum, I think it's pretty understandable that people will tend to have communicated more with you in the past than they do now you are a VW man professionally.

I don't post as much as I used to - I bought an IS200 in mid-2006 and changed it in early 2007 for the GS430 that I have now. So naturally after 2 1/2 years I have less questions to ask, and there don't seem to be so many people asking questions that I can answer at the moment either. General traffic does seem less than it was though, I would hope that it's not related to the various wars between one or two senior club people that were going on - a lot of long-time members got involved and there seemed at the time to be some bitterness around that. I am sure it will pick up again as time goes on...

I rarely get any PMs, I don't take it personally. No-one wished me happy birthday a few weeks ago either - but hey-ho.
