I originally joined in 2004 an stayed active till 2008, then left and rejoined under different name. Was never banned, but now I am mostly a silent reader, comming here not as often as I used to. I remember the good old days, when literally everyone knew everyone else. MPS, Jag, JJ, Jumbojet, Datzburier, Salarzai, Storm, Levin, Aridsoul (may he RIP, Ameen), rocketman (may he RIP, Ameen)... Some of the members are still active, but that sense of respect, friendliness and welcome is not there anymore.
The site still has some good things, like nonwheels sections, and I occasionally look at DIY's, which are still interesting. Plus want to know if Pakistan can still make its OWN car one day, just like the Adam's REVO, I learned about that car on this Forum, and it used to have alot of topics and heated discussion in support or against support of that car. That feeling of support is not their anymore for the local autoindustry. Back then too, alot of people were against Pakistan's own car, and were talking about free competition. Look at this way, what if Pakistanis did support the REVO car, it would have become alot better by now. But alas, one can only wish.... and hope for the best.
May God bless Pakistan and you all, Ameen.
