I was on TV a few minutes ago browsing the Midwest section. TV is loaded with Spam, Ads and people posting in the wrong section. Take a gander at this Midwest - Chevy TrailBlazer, TrailBlazer SS and GMC Envoy Forum
So I jumped on TV

Yeah, looking to see if anyone responded to your meet invitation.Cable810 said:
How about inviting the noobs over here using a carefully worded PM, instead of adding value to Vertical Scope's asset by posting more over there?

I doubt the OS ever meets any demise. VS will keep bloating the member numbers, visits per day, etc to keep advertisers content. Who knows they may even resort to a bot system that will further inflate numbers.
While it is sad that site is a wild, wild, west, with little to not moderation, noobs answering noobs, and a few people who stayed behind only because they felt threatened to post for fear of sounding like an idiot. Not to mention the overwhelming cockyness of a few people over there.
On the bright side this site will thrive. I don't think this site will ever reach the 100k+ members of TV. Then again how many people signed up, posted once and then never came back. GMT also has no reason to inflate member, post, daily hit numbers as it is ran by enthusiast, not a greedy corporation who's only care is how many cents each add will generate per page load.
I do not know which member here messaged me over there (shill account), but I say thank you, I would have eventually found you guys, and girls. It just might have been a bit longer.

"carefully worded PM"

Yea, it seems that some women are good at coming up with a new word for (or should I say "disguising") the period..
Whoops, did I just say that out loud???

I actually have sent out quite a few PM's today myself, about a good 50ish I think no sure 100% lost count lol (made a new account on there for that). Hopefully I can catch some people on there
It really sucks on there, ghost town for sure and I think there is a good couple of people answering question (not in the nicest way or right for that matter either)...sadd!!!

You sent me one. It's the first one I've received, and it is really late. November would have been the best time. I haven't posted there since I left.

I can't send PM's over there anymore. I can only do the profile public message thingy where everyone can see 
But I guess after my lovely letter to the OS that I posted I deserve it 
I will message people publicly about the NATION and I will do it proudly, until of course one of their lazy mods get's their thumbs out of their rears and notices and bans me for good, until then....I'm on the prowl!!
I know where home is for me. I love it here! And I owe it to Blazinlow89 and someone else
I was a bit stubborn at first, but I owe my sanity to this forum. And I have been saved lol I officially LOVE my non-foreign vehicle, and I plan on extending the GMT family with another TB or Envoy when the time comes...Now if only I can convince the hubby to get a TB or Envoy instead of a Honda
