Think of it this way, pardon me for not knowing your rank, but if your superior knew absolutely nothing about your job however tried to mask it by micromanaging you and when you gave suggestion were ignored (no where to be found) and when you give slight push back you were dishonorably discharged (banned).

I didn't "Hang Out" at .org all that much. But if people are saying it went "Corporate" I totally understand the direction it went. And that really isn't my thing either. Just glad to be here, especially from the ground up. We can help make this site they way we want it, not what corporate people want.

That about sums it up.

 

The BEST people in the business have been banned from the .org for awhile. The old owner sold off to a corporate giant and its been down hill ever since. The corporates come in, get rid of most GOOD businesses that posted often. The good tech went out the window, the mods became hitler, and the site sucks now.

 

so introducing 450rHQ.com bringing back good people that have long been gone.

 

This site is not just about Hondas. a couple yamaha sites have been bitten by the corporate bug as well as suzuki and kawasaki sites. they will migrate over this way soon enough. There was a tech site that just stopped one day and it was missed by many. Hopefully that tech info will come back, end up here, and everyone will be happy.

Phantom put it best.

 

corporate came in, took away what forums are made of... the good sponsors and the members. They took away the ability for sponsors to do giveaways and raffles. Why? Cause they didnt get pennies off that stuff. it was greed and money!

 

 

Some Honda website took it a bit farther and let dumbshit hang around, make money, and be a douche. That single person ran off more members and sponsors on more sites then I have EVER seen anywhere.

Then you have his minions who have his parts, swear how good he is and reposts his crap everywhere. His postings were nothing but a bunch of cut and pastes off the internet. Which is why no one sees this guy in person to talk "tech"

 

he hangs on to his one win here or there in something. his claim to want to be fame.... he shouldnt bother with these forums. hes always saying how many lives hes saving.

 

enough of other morons and sites.... lets grow this one

Just read this over on the org and I think it puts things into perspective where the "leaders" of that forum come from:

 

......you sent your PM on Friday April 6th, which was Good Friday and therefore a holiday, so our office was closed. .....

 

To them hanging out on that forum is work, here we enjoy being here and at least myself I come here to get away from work!!

i just read the other tread and finally understand your concern and what happened..

and im sure you meant Mixxer, and to be honest i love the work he did on my head(he is highly recommended by my mec) but again if he talks the talk, he better walk the walk.. and i know he hasnt done it everytime he get called out. i dont hate him or nothing since the problem was not with me but defenetly get your point..

 

let grow this web site... im all down for it..

I am new to both this site and .org .... Ive also been a member to many other big forums and over time one way or another they went down hill because of new ownership... The new owners knew jack shit about the forums or what the forums were representing (quads, car audio, lawn equipment etc...) All they did was hire people to go and delete bad threads and ban members for not following there new BS rules...

Then people left and started making new forums....Thats exactly why this one is here...

You're very right however the big difference is we aren't any more on the members side than we are on the sponsors side and vice versa. We've both seen our share of forums crash and burn and we are bringing not only a passion for the sport but also a LOT of forum experience to this board;)

Juice was/ is a good guy...As far as i know. But he kept posting the "dragfag" shit all the time.. I liked juice... But he bought a lot of the crap on himself then compained about everyone causing drama when they callled him on it. I just never got why he did that.

As for the Org i joined just after it got sold to corporate.. People like that just dont get it.. Never will.. Its a job to them.. They've no interest in understanding. All about the $$ which is fine...its now a business. But how some can do anything they want there and other cant is bollocks. It needs to all or nothing. Bennett was my festering lump there.. He was a grade A cock!

Search the org with keywords like Squish/duration/overlap tons of good info from so many good guys.. All in 05-08 most just got pissed off by one or two people and left... Sad that it was let happen by the mods/owner. Anyway... All that said... New start here... Lets keep on the good stuff and let the org do what it wants... Just my tupence...

El Mamito, I'm glad you did too. I was a newb to the org but I've been a part of forums for a lot of years and could see the crap just festering there.

 

 

I know it's been said several times but I don't think it can be said enough: If you guys have ever written or read a post/thread/anything that you feel is useful, please get it copied here. We really want this to be not only a place to shoot the BS but also an informative place that you can count on to get the information at your finger tips quickly on ANY ATV.
