audiofanaticz Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 There is an outrageous number of forums now days. Too many in my opinion. So I really been wondering what every ones favorite forums are that they visit on a regular basis? I think some of the answers could be interesting to see! Im going to post this on a few sites in the off topic forums, so If theres a site that I dont visit and you do go ahead and post this up! This maybe a way for some to find out other great sites, meet new friends, and broaden your knowledge of this hobby. Lets keep this topic clean!! Copy/paste my questions in your post when replying. No one post crap like "I cant stand that guys site because he is a douche". No singling out individual users of said sites if you dont like them. This is not a method to bash sites or members of sites you do not like. I dont want to see people quoting someone elses response and saying "x2", or any replies that have nothing to do with this thread.

hdorre Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Your likes: SMD- for answering question and conversing CACO- for buying/selling SSA- I occasionally go on if SMD is slow Your dislikes: CA- its not organized and I don't think the staff really does their jobs to the fullest. What keeps you coming back: SMD-just look at my post count lol What does the site offer you the user: This was the first car audio forum that I joined, so I think of it as a "home." I also met a few friends on here. I text them and talk to them on Facebook. How can the site improve: Giving the mobile theme more post options that the other themes have (bold, underlining, inserting links/pictures, etc). I memorized some codes, but it would still be nice.

Namosh Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Website name/link: SMD Your likes: Lots of big installs. Lots of very creative and skilled "hobbyists". It's got a real community feel. Your dislikes: Way too many pissing matches going on all the time. What keeps you coming back: I feel invested in all these ongoing projects and want to see what happens next. What does the site offer you the user: Almost instant feedback on pretty much anything car audio related. How can the site improve: ....I'd like to see some kind of automated moderating. Like when someone quotes a long post of pictures for no reason, the site should block it and smack you through your screen. Website name/link: Talk Audio UK Your likes: Very friendly people who are always willing to help (you will never see someone there say "use the search button noob"). I like checking out the way they can cram such big systems in such tiny cars. Your dislikes: It's the middle of the night there when I'm on and pretty deserted. Hard to follow some of them because of the different terminology they use. What keeps you coming back: It's the first forum I ever joined and I feel nostalgic for it sometimes. What does the site offer you the user: Knowledge. How can the site improve: ??? Website name/link: Crutchfield Forums Your likes: It is very basic. Your dislikes: It is VERY basic. What keeps you coming back: I like being able to help just the average guy who want to put in a modest system but has no clue where to start. Most of the posters ask a question, get an answer, say thanks and never come back. I like that. What does the site offer you the user: How can the site improve: Because it is owned by Crutchfield, they don't allow linking to anyone they consider a competitor. That makes it hard to recommend equipment sometimes. Quote My Ram Quad Cab Blow-through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jbabycsx Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Website name/link:SMD Your likes: I know most of the people here that can offer good advice Your dislikes: Repeat questions that have been answered a thousand times already. Too many noobs with their "vs" threads What keeps you coming back: This was the first forum I joined and I have gotten to know a lot of the members. What does the site offer you the user: Entertainment, advice and a ton of builds to follow How can the site improve: No complaints PS- The main reason I stay here is because most of all the topics started here are also posted on every other major forum. Almost every member here with a thread count of over 500 has an account at SSA,CACO,CA etc etc. Just makes it easier to stay here and post.
