Is it me? . . .

[(RIP) PLANK]

Is it me, or does the club site feel like a ghost town lately? Has everyone migrated to adding their input to face book? if so why? Is it because it's easier to upload photo's and content?

Would a 'share' button help?

Would new easier to upload software help?

Maybe it's time for a re-vamp?

I hate to see the club in decline, even Briggie's joke seem to have dried up, come on fellow members get posting!

photos easy enough to upload, photobucket works well.

yep, but not like facebook, instant mobile uploads. I'm not saying this is the problem but it's worth thinking about.

Do you think it's gone quiet?

[Fez_uk]

a little, but end of the day people have to contribute themselves

maybe the subscription cost needs looking at

absolutely, and that's my point, but why aren't they?

Is it cost? or just are forums like ours/this being superseded by social networking?

a tiny bit quieter, but id say its more time of the year. Everyones busy with work or whatever (i certainly am), not so sure about Facebook, seems quiet on there to me but I dont look very often!

if the cost you are refering to is the membership cost of £10, yes times are hard but this is the best £10 i have spent in the long run you will save this easily with all the help and support from fellow members...... thats if the membership is still £10 .........oops saying too much ....i think mines due soon......

Think u have to consider what folks use the site for i personally wanted to know about modding my truck and green lanning
This site is great for the technical info on trucks but recently it's green lanning and social side has dropped off so now spend time on another site and I think thus is true for others

Well looking at the details, there have been nearly 100 people on the site today.

What we need is a bit of snow to get every body to contribute.

Many will want to know how to sort their auto hubs, and what tyres to get, when they get stuck.

Am on most days but admit to not posting much as mostly not related to my little truck but still try making A contribution when I think may help

it may jut be that a few 'big hitters' have gone awol, DaveD has left, though still a mate through FB. Paul/lacroupade doesn't seem to be posting much at the moment, and of course Zippy has let the side down and got a job! whimp! lol

I am guilty of the same thing as I often don't post for weeks/months but usualy in the summer when i've 'gone walk about' (to quote crocodile Dundee).

So come on lads knuckle down and get posting

Well for me asside from post Christmas blues and being a mild SAD sufferer my R3mR is currently enjoying a reliable and trouble free spell.

Only real issue has been sorting out the rear suspension rubber with new bushes last year.
The short rear top axle links are Milner Off Road Polybushes (4) whilst the long lower rear suspension arm bushes (4) are genuine Nissan ones as the ride was too boneshaker with Polys all round.

Currently daydreaming about a replacement when this one reaches the point of being beyond economic repair.

Current alternatives are Jeep Grand Cherokee, Kia Sportage or if I am really mad a Nissan Murrano !!
