WOW...THE CAR AUDIO SECTION OF ECOUSTICS DIED!

Did the ridiculously over whelming presences of audio/video adds have anything to do w/ its death?

I've been here since '02 or so. I remember my first question ever on here was about running multiple amps. I still visit the site every day.

I feel compelled to post in here. Haven't been on Ecoustics in nearly a year, but I logged on tonight for some reason. It is crazy how dead it is compared to when I joined. Unfortunately, I don't mess with car audio equipment anymore. I miss the bass.

I post maybe once or twice a day now. Back in 06-09? This place was bumpin'! There seemed to always be a hot thread or new ideas floating around. A 30 post day was not uncommon. You remember. Sometimes a BS thread was created and was gone into the archives in a day because of the activity. Sadly many great informative threads died that way also because of a lack of stickies here.


Today? Some threads are months old and still considered active. Shoot the sub section can now go a full day without a single post.



I HOPE BRIAN IS READING THIS!!!!

It has been forever since I last came on here, I remember back in the day, my first post was about JL w7's, boy did I get flamed for that lol..

I am actually looking at buying an amp for my soon to come sub, I was thinking of getting a Fi BTL, but I don't know what is good anymore. Where did everyone migrate to, this hole forum is dunzo, even the satellite section...

Just proving my point.


Dead in the water.


Brian if you want to talk my door is always open. You have my email address. Better yet, just respond in this thread. We (and a few others) can do wonders to this place if you just allow it. I have a few members in mind who deserve admin control, not that you'd give it of course lol.



What's up Kang!!!????? I remember talking to you on AIM. How's it going????

I don't think there's any hope for this forum anymore. YOU did not listen to your members a while back.... you cant bring a dead dog back to life....

^^^Yup. Been said and begged for many years ago.

At this point you'd hit the mega millions before members got their wish here.


Member mods
Sigs
Less ads! My anti virus shoots off like a volcano because of all the malware this place hides.
Allow a pic underneath username
Explain the sat section. Can you? Will you???
Stickies!!!
Create a member ranking system based off likes/dislikes from other members. It helps new members on who to trust. Half the Sat section's problems would melt away.
Open up the file upload size limit. Resizing pics sucks.



Most of these "requests" have been asked for many times. All are already used on other sites and have pulled traffic away from here (obviously). The net is a quickly evolving entity. Adapt or perish.

Looking into that antivirus message.

You should NEVER see such a message on this site for any reason.

Please report again if the problem comes back.

My antivirus program won't even allow me access to this site. I have to disable just to post.


Tell me THAT isn't another reason not to come back.

Yup. This place has been compromised guys. Not surprised. My antivirus keeps throwing up the red flag.



Malware, adware, viruses, ect.


Until Brian secures this site and updates it to today's standards I recommend you delete all data downloaded from here and don't log back on. Your computer and files/personal data will be at risk.


It's just the way this place is run. Sorry guys.


When you allow garbage to pay you, you also have to accept the backwash.

Same here. I get the "Reported Attack Site" message. If this doesn't stop in the next couple of days, I'm out of here.

Thanks for the education over the past ten years. Been fun for the most part. Laters.

The death threads have 10x the volume as other threads.
I still think the problem is the inaccessability of the subwoofer forum from the main homePage. It is like a maze.
It should instantly pop out at you from home page.
BUT the things that do pop out on the homePage are the things that bought the soul of the proprietor of this site.
TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER!
Or to the electronic sub-category that brings in the lukewarm masses.

eh, I've been spending more time elsewhere on DIY Audio, AudioKarma, A/V Science, etc.. doing home stuff, but I'm still around here. I just don't see a lot of questions that need my attention. I avoid the "which product should I buy" threads, and try to stick to the mroe technical stuff. I came here before we had registrations, then I had an accound that was lost and had to be recreated, so I don't really know how long I've been around here. Since the 90s? Who knows. I think I started here around the same time I started on Car Audio Central, which is when that site was still hosted on easyboard or whatever that hosting site was before we moved the site to it's own host and software.

The ads were enver a huge issue, but I use Chrome with ad blockers and script blockers, so while it's a bad thing for the site in regards to revenue, it does help maintain my sanity when I try to read these sites that are ad-driven.
