Dear guys,
Yes, I understand your points. Actually, they're what I thought, too. Believe me, I love our Lextreme forum a lot more than the Clublexus or any other forums. And that's why I want to contribute my best opinions to improve it. My philosophy is that we never stop at improvements. But as I mentioned, we're too specialized in V8, we don't have a variety of cars/options to attract more people. And as the consequence, we might come to the point that people are getting less attractive with the same ideas/modifications when our old SC400 and LS400 become faded out (no offense, please). Unless we can expand to newer SC430 or LS430, then our future wouldn't be in good shape. I would also believe that many of us here would want a newer car, newer mods so that concept applies the same.
If we only concentrate on the targeting (goal) numbers, of course we're higher than other forums. But if we want more "business", then our current goal might not fulfill what we want. So we need to consider between the "V8 culture" or the "business culture". It's hard to keep both at their peaks at the same time. So although Clublexus has more junk posts, that doesn't mean they have bad business. By now, if you look at their "currently active users", they have 1390 users, while we only have 26 currently active users.
As John mentioned, thanks to your compliment about me. And I know that there're many real knowledgeable members on our forums to make up our pride & value. Beside our rich of technicality on this forum, we still need more members, right? I believe this is what David considers the most. We need more members to get more supporters, so we need more members to sustain our forum.
