    @Car8john M9 you cant say s*** about spam. You have created over 3000 messages since May. That's 500 per month and over 15 each and every day.
    FYI many of these stupid (sorry, its my opinion) roleplay groups are public and this means that everytime any non roleplayers open the whats new tab your irritating groups pop up about how you sold some car to some kid and what condition its in. Make your groups private it's not hard and for someone with your intelligence i am sure that your are quite capable of doing so.

    Anyways, that's enough from me.
    Have a nice day.

    Keep making maps Ghost, you're good at it. These forums are changing with the times and there's not a damn thing anyone can do about it. I feel your pain too
    but the reality is no one is interested in trying to effect change in here on this scale anymore, the beast has compounded into a major public affair now and it's only
    going to get bigger. The forum tools in place offer a great way to segregate and isolate selected members into their own custom experiences and discussion content
    and effectively ignore the waves of crap.

    I have felt the effect of 'growth' myself and there are times when I just want to delete my account and move on but I just can't do it...the next update is always around the corner.

    Any chance admins of fixing the issue where you see group posts in the new posts section when you are not part of that group. I thought that I should mention it.

    just to clear something up... my op may have been written a little harsh. its not that i wake up sweatsoaked at night about this. i just didnt understand...i dont like things i dont understand... so i asked.
    and some of the replys brought up aspects i hadnt in mind while posting this wich make absolute sense and have a rather positive effect then negative ones.

    @carjohn: spam? you can count the threads i've made over the last 3 years on one hand. so... what?.

    I haven't actually played the game for a week now (don't shout at me, it's loading this minute) but I've been on the forum every day.
    Think of it as social media with the added happiness that everyone is into the same thing and we can ask each other questions alot.

    Around 70% of those posts where in the RP groups

    As for the groups, although I am a moderator only the group owner can make it private (from what I know, I don't usually use moderator tools often) so don't blame me, blame the owners
    --- Post updated ---
    Also I'd like to point out that 15-25 is a ok number, I don't see how it suprise S you, I do have some free time since I don't work on weekends

    Just messaged Carbro about his Police Pursuit group an hopefully he listens and acknowledges that the 99% of people are not roleplayers and dont want to see it.

    Also he has a Roleplay group too, most likely those are the notification you will see about cars for sale and RP and shit like that

    Glad he agreed to make it private. I still find it irritating with people having extremely long signatures but i can deal with that as it is avoidable.

    It's the problem of any forum. Everything had been mostly said.
    Sure it's cool to have a mature forum, but if you are 10 playing the game and using the forum there's no point...
    When a game get popular, like Beamng those last years, younger player get here, and the most aren't particulary mature.
    But this is the price for being know.

    I am actually happy that we have an active off-topic forum, this causes to make this more 'social', so more people stay here, and when people stay here liking the forum as it is, they are more likely to create content for everyone here :)
