The new wave of twenty-something 996TT owners have had a profound impact on the nature of the discussion on 6Speed. Personally, I am not offended by the frequent inane musings. I rarely read the Off-Topic section of 6Speed, or any other forum, and I carefully screen which topics within the 996TT forum I read. There are guys on 6Speed that average over 100 posts per day (which speaks volumes about their lives). I have neither the time, nor the inclination, to read all of the threads and/or post vacuous "what he said" responses. I also concur that the Rep system was corrupting 6Speed by promoting wasteful posts for no other purpose than to increase ones Reps. I presume the elimination of the Rep system will reduce the fatuous posts...

Well said, chap. Well said.
Albeit, I would like to add that this thread began like most rumors where in part there is some truth... Here the truth is that there exists admin issues on 6speed.
Like I wrote earlier, there was a thread on 6speed where various moderators berated each other for deleting each other's threads and various shortcomings on professional decorum, etc... Rather amusing, but goes to the essence of what could be its demise. Something like the Roman Empire?

FWIW -
After reading this thread, I went over and signed up. Seamless process - took 2 mins. Not sure why I didn't have problems...

Yes, you need to have 100 posts before you can post.
