Its a good thing. I have been seriously lacking time with all the stuff happening back home, so I needed help and I found it.

Are the two sites going to become one site?

sounds like they are more of a management co. so they'll probably retool what we have and it will remain an impreza site.



As far as I'm concerned it's something that needed to happen for a while. There is very little attention paid to the users of this site, sept a few chosen few. There is very little support financially going out to promote the site these days and very little activity out in the real world. Things like the mt. hammy meet should have more i-club participation...not just members. etc.


i think it will be good to see some changes in that way...more active admin, moderation, meets, etc.

I understand where you are coming from, but I think it is the job of the members to organize activities. Things like Mt. Hammy and meets, they need to be done by the members. As for the management side of things, maybe a company would be better off for those things.

A club/forum is only as good as its members right?

I don't mind doing a few little things here and there. I try my best to plan and host things like install fests. Maybe it would be a good idea for us to sit down and set goals for the forum/club.

Correct. The sites of course will stay separate. The people that run these sites joined forces sort of say.

i-club is the largest logo on all hammy related stuff...is it not? It should be the largest contributor. Otherwise why is it an i-club sanctioned meet? Why is it not just BAIC Mt. Hammy meet....etc.

But this is besides the point. I just feel like it will be a good change..but only time will tell. Long as they leave the base part of this site alone....i.e. it's a subaru site...etc. and just spend time maybe growing the site, updates,etc.... I'll be happy.
