Default ok..

I posted this in Smack but it is not working.

I told myself I was not going to come back here but after Greg joined my site I knew there had to be a topic posted by him over here so I came to look. Sure enough here it is.

My site started in May. Sure there are not a lot of active members, but 90+ members joining in 4 months is fine in my book. I am not looking at some enormous site that gets bogged down with drama and bull**** like other sites. I would rather have a site with 5 active members posting than 100 pointless posts.

Have any of you ever tried starting a website on your own that requires everyday attention and trying to do stuff to keep people interested in? If so, please let me hear your input on how well or how bad it did because it is hard as hell trying to keep something going like that.

I don't do this for a living, I paid for the site, I built the site, so if it fails, I tried. I tried to do something most of you haven't and probably never will. If it does well, then great for me and great for the members on there.

I work 2 full time jobs and go to college Monday through Friday for Business Management. I do as much with the site as I can in my spare time so should I care if it is as fantastic as MT?

The Mustang of the Month contest is harder than I thought it would be. I set up polls and it is narrowed down and the first time I did it, I was the one with the most votes. Atleast I follow through with my contests on my site unlike some people on here. Hell I even followed through with the one contest I held on MT with the Badfish sig. Once again, why don't some of you try it before you bash someone else's site. Everything has to have a starting point and it has taken MT years to get where it is today...and you are bashing my 4 month old site?

And for those saying that I got all pissy and crying on the internet. I didn't specify the details as to why I left. I simply said I was tired of the BS on the boards, meaning everything in a whole. Sure I am a dick sometimes but that is who I am. I am not here to try and impress people with my car or who I am. I was here to learn stuff about Mustangs, maybe help someone else out, and just have a good laugh during the day at work and try and get some other people to laugh. I tried to help the site out by doing sigs for people, and even tried T-shirts and window stickers but couldn't ever get approval for those so it fell through.

I was not a crybaby that went running over and built my site. It was already there so I just decided I needed to devote more time to it. I don't care what people think about my car, I build it to my liking and in my opinion I have done something different that most of you guys on here. I am trying to do something while you

For those of you who talk ****, I don't really care like you think. I don't know you and I will never meet you. I have better things to do than bicker with people on a forum. It was fun while it lasted.

So now all you people that talk so much trash about me, my site, my car..you have the floor..which I am sure you will just say the same insults as always..

I dont know what you people are talking about, the boards have not changed over the past couple months, people come and go get over it, as far as im concerned this is still a great place to come to get mustang advice, see some cool pictures and videos and laugh eevry once in awhile

would a thread like this stay up there? no? my point exactly
ive never had a problem with slither, i barely knew what happened, bt if you want to leave leave, or you can stay and post and have fun... hell stang00 still posts (sometimes) here and we give him more **** in a day than a portapotty sees in a month, get over what other people think on the internet... you shouldnt care in real life to. You should use this as an intenet lesson, painless in your real life, but maybe you should take a step back and look around you in life, is this how you act in your life? dont care about what people think (and no, its not enough to say you dont care when you do on the inside)
