Personally speaking, I've never had a problem with Rob and we've got on well so I don't want this post appearing that I'm giving him a kick in the balls. I'm not banned from RaceChat, I used to be a really active poster on there but as people were banned one by one (occasionally just trying to stir things up, but got more and more frequent), my interest waned, along with getting more involved with MSUK.
The biggest problem with RaceChat is that its sooooo confusing. Theres a few guys that I'd have no problems going straight to, if I needed info (mainly Jim Spencer), and if those members weren't around, then sticky threads would explain what I needed. But, go and have a look. Most stickies are well out of date. Some haven't had posts in them since 2006. Others are trying to explain technology that was new then, but old hat now (2.4ghz) and has moved on. I don't want to be disrespectful, but theres stickies from someone who has sadly passed away. There are sections that don't make sense, don't get used, and have parts that are covered elsewhere.
The whole forum would really benefit from being streamlined, simplified, and have a giant injection of new blood, new ideas and new impetus.
No forum is perfect, everywhere has problems. I'm sure for the amount of people here that wouldn't register on RaceChat, theres an equal number of people elsewhere that wouldn't register on oOple.
Can't we all just get along?
