It's always an excuse on 6gc. "School started. We'll be back on later." "It's the holidays. We'll be back on later." "It's summer. We'll be back on later." It's not so much that things suddenly died down. They've been dying down for quite a while now. The last year has not been kind to 6gc.

I think like everything else, it's a cycle. people are always coming and going. I see some old members leaving and plenty of newer ones coming in everyday. 
I've been on here for a while and yeah there have been quiet times but it does pick up every now and then. U can't expect people to live on here although I do hahahaha. but yeah I hope this site never dies or I might just die inside. let's all keep it alive.

i think douchebags who think they know what they are talking about annoy senior members enough that they just dont care to come on the site anymore..
BANNED. for life, you moron.

LOL..
I used to frequent a lot, but im working and doing a swap.
People are busy, but really lately, to much fantasy going on.
New people talking bout impossible swaps and how they will do it. bla blah blah, that there is really not much real activity.
few of us doing swaps, we are busy.
people have to step up the plate and start doing real things, and stop fantasizing.
sometimes i loose interest and not work in my car for days, but i have spent close to 5K that i must finish!!!!!!!!!

you must be an art major kidding kidding.
KIDDING. Please, lets not get sensitive. My point is that school is a relative thing. School for one person is taking a color theory class at a community college. While for a another person its 15 hours of cme, quatum, diff eq, circuits, ect. Thats why I think the whole school started thing is more than a good excuse, though i try my best to visit this place alot. Most likely what will happen in the future, is all the people who are in school now (the ones with too little time/ money) will be the ones who get these forums going again. i for one plan on going insane on my celica when i graduate. There will be much 3sgte goodness on here when i do.

this site has been on a steady decline as of late. we used to get regular posts from the originators and a bunch others, but alot of guys have families now, or have moved on. i do distinctly remember when i realized the site was not as much fun as before i think it was when d man disappeared and pokemeintheeye moved on etc. but its a cycle, and its up to all of us to keep the torch burnin....
where the hell is D man anyways... up to some illicit shenanigans no doubt....

It's not just the site. The entire car enthusiast industry has died down a lot in the past several years.

no kiddin,,,
there is not enough money to maintain a car the way we want it
so most people work for their support and nothing else...
1990 to 1999 there was a huge enthisiasm in the car industry
new technologies and car came along and kind of kill that industry

I love 6gc and I think part of the reason that it's dying is because of the adminstrtor is not changing anything, looking at the same stuff everyday gets kinda boring. Like I think there should be a JDM section (good idea?) and most of us are still learning. And the people who are leaving are gyros. Everytime I see someone with a celica I ask them how much they like there car and tell them about6gc in hope that it will get back to normal cause it's really lettin me down

It's not so quiet now.

Lets get some more pics and projects up on the site again, we need some fancy 6gc's to look at and places to find inspiration and comments. My excuse is the winter atm, having big plans of being one of the first with a as close to possible JDM car in Norway. Doggy just sent my tails and front splitters from honkong ( ready painted!! super service!) and my side skirts are at the shop getting some paint aswell. Later on im picking up a new HU ( Pioneer P88RS) and i need my car back from the shop so that i can make a new box for my sub. Also getting some new 18"s next payday. Just can't wait till the snow's gone so i can start mounting the sides and stuff.
Will be a progress tread up as soon as i get to work
If anyone could measure some in the trunk for me, glady PM. Wont get the car back until thursday and need some measurement to get started on the box

Winter always kills down the car scene and add that to the fact the 6gc is a very small scene....we're becoming a quiet group
