(don't be fooled on my sign up date, if you didn't know this forum crashed twice last or a couple of years ago, and it deleted a few users here including me).
Anyways, I remember when we we're able to joke around, talk crap to eachother and no words were taken seriously. I too found a few of my good friends here. Hell we even had a touge challenge here once. It was the LA people vs the San Diego people (I will not state the team names), unfortunately Drifting.com started to take off, (but it was also a good thing). So all illegal and crazy activites we used to talk about is now a thing of the past.
A lot of people were outraged about this whole "mainstream" thing and a lot of people got banned because of their free minded opinion. After that, a few of us took refuged to another site.
Anyways, my whole purpose (back then) was to absorb the whole culture of the drifting community, which was (still is, in a few groups) a well responsible and well mannered bunch of guys/gals.
Now a days, a few of us, are trying to keep this "tradition" alive, but unfortunately we're just cutting our losses and hoping that all this hype will die down so we can go back to the days were all this "shi!tz talking" was just for fun and not a question of their credebility.
Oh yeah: also, back in the days, NEWBs were welcomed with open arms. All the "HI im new" threads were welcomed and we all put links to their threads regarding any information about drifting. We actually Helped them search the net about Techs on their cars, used car for sale, etc.
