    sorry, guess people decided to have lives or something? Obviously having a site that runs faster, has more features, and better staff is useless. otherwise I have no idea why people don't visit .. maybe it's because the overall toyota tuning scene seems to be dying off in favor of VW, mazda, and ofcourse honda. in 10 years we may just have no toyota forums unless it's old school stuff.

    personally ithink that beacause the mean age of the memeber here is 16-25, most poeple are havingto dael with fianls right now and planning for summer and that why there is barley any activaty. It should pick up with in the next few weeks when schools run out and poeple get summer jobs the modding scene will go up. Just my .02

    It's just that most kids wouldn't want to be caught dead driving a corolla.

    aint that the truth...!!

    that and most of us are getting new cars and leaving the forums. When i get my tC ill prolly stick around but mostly i cruise the tC forums. Another thing is that i think a lot of people pick either vvt-i or vvti and dont post on the other. I know i havent posed on vvti in forever since i found vvt-i to be better. But im sure that some people are opposite. We should combine the 2 and then our forum would have a lot more traffic.
    Ross said it and it was good!

    Yeah, its been pretty steady all year long. I brought about 6 months ago, and I was told it was because of christmas season....then 3 months ago I was told it was because its the winter time......and now people are saying its because of finals.

    Im on tons of other boards, and these corolla boards are the only ones that seem to have dropped of in posts. Since I posted this thread yesterday, there were 70 new posts. I usually only post at work, so Im in the same boat as many of you

    I'll be honest...while I frequent the hell out of this forum...it's really just because I like so many people on here, and I get a kick out of being here.

    I use TundraSolutions.com to keep up with the growing list of mods for the Tundra. It's almost impossible to post over there though because of the politics around the so-called moderators and the poor up-keep of that board.

    Personally I think that this board has just...slowed down in traffic. Most of us have been here for a while now.

    The Corolla enthusiast community pretty much centers around the 9th gens... and they have their own dedicated forum... so this is turning more into a social forum than anything else... hmmm... why not just create a social forum thats car related?

    Yeah, we are... but what I mean is, change the name from vvt-i.net to something more generic for cars... and maybe add a really good news feature to the site?

    Then we'd have another offtopic.com on our hands.

    sadly that market is already taken. there is tons of generic car discussion sites already. if we didn't sit in the toyota niche there wouldn't be much point in a site at all.

    edmunds, tampa racing, revscene, beyond.ca, racers den, etc etc

    I'm kinda wondering what happened to the heated debates that used to happen here?

    Did we all just submit to Eric's superior abilities?
