What's the deal with the M forums?

A General Discussion forum for cars and other topics, and a great place to introduce yourself if you are new to NICO!

Whether you're being serious or not, that's a pretty short list, and they're all from this morning. If they had been sitting for a day or two, I could see it being more of a concern. We'll keep an eye on them but i'm sure someone will check in on them soon.

Half serious half for real.

15 views, and no one posted? Also this applies to most of NICO. It seems like it's slowing down...

I'm going to have to agree with that observation

Every forum website I'm on has seen slow downs over the past year. Dunno if less people are interested in forums or if there are simply more and more forums popping up and thinning interested parties out.

Thanks! :yesnod

I do check in there periodically, but, given that work is also a priority for everybody, some things will sit for a while.

More importantly, do I hear a call for "belling that cat" from you? :naughty: I'd love to see you dive in the M forum and answer questions in there too. :yesnod

I had to look up "belling the cat", and that's not what I meant by my post. I understand how difficult it is and I was just hoping to stir up some NICOnauts to tackle some of them. I answered the throttle response one and it looks like I was way off. One thing I have a hard time doing is car advice, I am not a "car guy". I know some car basics, some S14 and Z33 specific things but as for all the other car sections of NICO I have no idea. For me I stick to what I know, you won't see many unanswered posts in Gaming or Computer/Electronics because I check those multiple times per day.

For me to stumble into the Engineering section and answer questions would be most difficult.

Do you think it is because most enthusiast's budgets are getting squeezed? I figure the largest demographic of car forum users are younger and because unemployment has affected the younger generations more than any one else they have less $$ to spend doing what they love. In my case, I haven't touched my S14 in years. I still hang around because of the familiar faces; If I logged on and didn't recognize any one, I don't think I would check in often.

Could be. Demographics also change. If NICO were only about the 240sx I would be worried as people who are looking for a RWD sporty car now have a few years of 350z and G35 to choose from instead of a 14yo+ S-chassis. The economy has a lot to do with things as well.
