i'm registered on a lot of forums and a lot i pay for subscription wise and see the same over and over, sites have gone from friends chatting to more forums run like businesses .

It's a shame really as people have kind of lost grip of what its all about and not about how much money can be made hence why every forum i use ends up losing more members then gaining

personally from the above info i think its a bit OTT

all the above is just my personal oppinion
