What are some good alternative sites to revscene?

There have been some recent changes to revscene that have upset me. I even received some points had the post deleted for stating my honest opinion on the situation.

I don't think this post is flaming, but if it post disappears, you know whats what.

I'm looking for other sites similar to revscene that I can check out. If you have any ideas but don't want to post here, PM me.


Thanks for the help!

I doubt you'll be able to find a mix like RS anywhere else. This site has been 10 years in the making and has a rather unique group of individuals.

Sad that RS needs to pay the bills.

Keeping a FREE website is no easy task and RS needs some income to pay for servers. Unless you are willing to foot the bill, the ads are necessary.

There are many ways of giving back to the site. A bunch of members have given $10 for a bigger avatar and custom title. A ton of people bought $5 lanyards. Some even bought the $10 thongs when we had them. Even though the lanyards cost money to make, it was still a way of supporting us.

Also, ygpm

Yes when it first started and a couple years in I remember there being a donation system in place... I think it probably resulted in about $25 of donations... they also tried things like donating to get a custom avatar or to add a special line under your name and they do bring in money but obviously not enough to offset costs IMO.

revscene is a good site, even though it has changed quite a bit since it started.

a lot of other site out there, but it really depends on what you want to be reading about and stuff. i personally go to 2 forums, here and offtopic.com

You've got one warning, probably one point and you don't want to stay anymore?

Hmm, I wonder if there could be a forum where you can post suggestions or comments. Maybe somewhere that they would talk about user titles and how to donate money in exchange for an oversized avatar and custom titles...

I would suggest VX as an alternative if they were still around.hahah its filled with JBs there and high school gangsta wannabes

other than that, if you're intrested in cars, then theres lots of forums specific for many brands/models of cars.

Aside from RS, I goto the US mazda forums mostly and clubRSX and NASIOC buy/sell
