Philip Nothard 26 Posted March 26, 2015 For those who may not have seen this report earlier today, I thought it would be worth sharing. This demonstrates the increasing usage of forums from the consumers and the interaction. http://http://www.brandwatch.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Twitter... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrokerMan 1 Posted March 27, 2015 Does not surprise me at all... You can have an in-depth conversation on a forum, ask question etc. Can't do that on Twatter! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Baggott 227 Posted March 28, 2015 Oh yes you can on Twitter. You just have to reply more than once... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavin@Rousdon 137 Posted March 30, 2015 If you read the Pistonhead's forum I can see where all that time goes !!! A brilliant example of a forum and a great example of how the human mind works!!!! After reading it you notice all the problems in the world are solved if you buy a Saab !!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Baggott 227 Posted March 30, 2015 I delved into it the other day as they shared one of our stories from SuperUnleaded.com and my god it scared me. How it manages to escalate into an argument so quickly between the posters was amazing. I'm glad this forum manages to keep things polite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavin@Rousdon 137 Posted March 31, 2015 The problem with lots forums in general is that a large percentage of what is written is simply made up. Classics on PH include, a BMW M3 E46 isn't a quick car, the BMW 1 Series is based on a Rover and Saab's are good !!! The next problem is that a certain percentage of people believe what is written !!! We walk amongst these people daily, added to the fact these people always find us at Christmas parties and talk the same rubbish. To counter this I now tell people I'm an Accountant.

Andy Entwistle 96 Posted March 31, 2015 Forums are great for in depth info, but also terrible for scaremongering. 996 Bore scoring is one example, if you read the forums all the N/A 996's out there have or will blow up, the reality is that less than 1% have a problem according to analysis. I love owners forums, but the problem is, its mostly teh people with problems who are most vocal ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
