A few changes

[BlewByYouEvoVIII]

Ok guys, over the next few weeks there will be a few changes going on around here. The format of the board will most likely be changing. Some of you guys know Alex, from WRXatlanta. He will be helping out to change a few things around here and help us get on our feet a bit better. He is going to help make this site alot like what WRXatlanta is like. IM not 100% sure, but I think he may start hosting our site aswell. The details are still a bit unfinished but I will keep everyone posted. We are trying to make this community a more active experience for everyone. Its been hard to grow when nobody posts, and even harder for new members to join and participate when they feel we are inactive. Everyone start becoming more active!!! talk to everyone soon!

Greetings all :)

I'd like to extend a warm thankyou for this welcoming thread. As you know, I am the owner and administrator of WRXAtlanta.com. While I would like to say that there is "1" magic formula that makes or breaks a community, we all know differently. I've started several forums over the last few years, some have taken off others are still small. Each one of them is still an enjoyable place to chill out and talk about whatever the subject is at hand.

Yes, I will be transferring this community to my server in a hopes to balance costs for each community as well as improve load time and reliability (nothing against dean :) ). Sure they'll be some changes, however, very little will be done without the approval of the community. What makes a community strong is the devotion of its members to (a) promote the forum, (b) keep it active and full of new and interesting threads (c) sponsors / social network (d) strong moderation staff (for events, etc). I will elaborate on (c) soon.
