very clicky and the moderators delete whatever they like whenever they feel like it. Plenty of people on there who think they better than everyone and like to let you know it. There are many good people on there also but unfortunately it seems most of them stay away. Also seems to be an awful lot of underhanded trading going on over there now with many buyers and sometimes sellers being left unhappy and out of pocket

Good club for trackdays and the like, shows also tend to be like a carpark - Japfest last year must have had 100 evos +

If you can wait months for a reply to a question (maybe years, maybe no reply) then it's a good site! If you want a friendly site with no subscription, a lot of help, quick replies, good banter, then you're in the right place :)

Anything goes up for sale etc. you don't have to pay or wait a few days to view the ads

It is of course your opinion, but most on this forum would disagree with you, that is why most of us are members on the mlr but have since chosen to spend more time on this forum because of the friendlier attitutude:p:p

I already pay a members fee on hot and accordr members fees don't bother me. I find all places can seem quite clicky unless you put yourself out there I'm normally quite an out going person but I felt that the meet so slightly clicky on Sunday but i put it down to you guys all knowing each other. Different people had warned me about the trading thing but I never realised it was as bad. So I will avoid there unless absolutely necessary.

i have had my head chewed a couple of times, one time rsvrob came into save me before i lost my temper and got kicked off and that simply was me asking if anyone in the local area could map my car. if your not in with the crowd you just have to blend in, i get what i need from there without paying 35 quid as i dont by thousands of pounds of parts or do the sprints and only go to the shows that intrest me

i would say the meet on sunday wasnt cliky but more that people knew others, in the middle there was the evoowners lot, up by the skylines it was british mods and down by the green civic there was a couple of the evoowners models and some of their friends,

its only the second meet so still getting to know everyone

over the road is very good for info and there is some nice people on there. Just feel's like if your not running over 400 or you're got a 9 gt. No one will post on your thread? Over here any evo in fact you don't even need an evo and anyone will be welcoming! And no post's go up with out reply(unless its geof lol).plus they want to know the out come or get feed back after thing's have been sorted or modded want ever the prob was.This is a very helpful site with lot's of great members happy to be part of it! Hence the large club sticker on of my car.:)

Hi,
I cant really comment as im not a paid member and rarely visit but I would say we are quite different to MLR. We are a lot smaller and much more of a community over here.

you have to wait hours between posts on here:whistling:
If you are so unhappy with the place we dont force you to stay. It is getting old seeing every post you make saying MLR is better. We are two very different forums! We have some great members here who will go out of their way to help anyone and it annoys me that every post you make is a sideways jab or a hint you would rather be on MLR.
