ClubCJ - The CJ Lancer Club

I am just wondering when general site performance is going to be fixed?

I have noticed a general trend since Pete lost his access to the backend that it has gone downhill.

Also just wondering what is happening with competitions? Premium members spend quite a lot in comparison to the other forums I am a Premium member of. I paid $20 for one of the XR5 forums, received 2 stickers and a really nice metal keyring.

I know I no longer own a CJ, but I am seeing a trend that the quality of this site is going down hill.

Most people move on after they get rid of their car, but I have met so many friends thru here I like to hang around, but it is becoming frustrating. I put more than just my lifetime membership into this forum, it saddens me to see where it is going....

i have seen a fair bit of negativity here lately

another ROTM would be good

My apologies... it must be in my head.....

ROTM has no credibility after the last farce.

i thought it might inject some fun. maybe work on transparency.
didn't realise shane was talking about "performance" just general attitudes etc

They were my concerns, but this is good a place as any to raise any concerns you have Doug. After all the forum would be nothing without the people

PM Mattigins re: Transparency

i'm sure when ROTM resumes, Matti will have tranceparency in mind?

BTW what kind of prizes are we talking about? should i put my Evo purchase on hold?

Doug - would you seriously contemplate entering ROTM, given the way the last one was conducted ?

yeah if they'd let me...i won the one before that

IF we could afford to give out Evos for prizes, I suspect we'd be charging more than A$40 for membership

On another front, I've watched this with interest. Seems great having a go at Matt about the last ROTM, whatever our conclusions and his behaviour since, I don't think looking at the past is going to help.

If all of you enjoy looking at the past so much, might I point out that Matt doesn't take criticism very well.

He'll disappear for longer periods and remove more privileges from other admins or ban someone as a result.

So just say what you have to say but leave matt out of the point.
Don't fault it onto him. Say what you dislike and don't tie it to him.

I suspect if you just don't mention nor blame him, the site may well be more responsive and see more features implemented.

I'll put my 2 cents across as well:

1. I've noted that the site has been pretty sluggish in the last week. I'd like to see some improvement to this please.

2. I'd really like to see the ruling against imageshack and other picture hosting sites removed please. It is a great inconvenience sometimes sharing pictures.

dont take it so seriously


i wasnt having a go at matti, ofey

I guess the gripe is that features etc get added to the site... That time could be better spent fixing the lag issues etc.

I would personally like to see someone else with access. There is a huge single point of failure at the moment.

This site is for the people. I for one appreciate the site being founded, but someone else needs to be able to take the reins should the need arise.

If Pete had access again, it could take some load off Matt, as 1 person having to do all the back end work is a big ask. I am not trying to be difficult, I am thinking of people's lives out of the club. No one should have to bear all the load.....
