This forum doesn't have much traffic

Post by sparkywig »

I'm surprised at the lack of posts on this forum.
I own other models of cars and am a member/moderator on various other marque forums and the post rate is much higher than here. What is the issue on this forum, I thought it was for enthusiasts?
I'm interested in what you've done, where you've driven, even if you've just washed your car or been shopping.

There isn’t anything wrong with the forum or the enthusiasts. Most of the chit chat is done face to face at regional club nights and events. I’m not entirely sure that you really are interested in when I’ve washed my car and when I’ve been shopping, but i get the drift. You’re a member and you’ve got experience with forums. The more you post, the more interaction you’ll get.
By the way, nice 996!

Thanks.
After re-reading my original post it doesn't come across in the manner I intended, and I apologise.
I agree that most stuff is done at the monthly meets, but family and work sometimes means that Club nights and events are missed.
As for Facebook I don't use it much, but it is good for announcing events that aren't club sanctioned.
A friend and myself took a trip up the M4 to Newbury for Porsche@thePodium last weekend. Without social media we would have never known that it was on.
