I can say I have NEVER went to facebook for derby tips/advise. Most people on there have diarrhea of the mouth and will tell you anything just because they feel like typing. It is also waaaaaaaaaaaaay too difficult to find info for a specific topic or car. For classifieds it is useful because it can be narrowed down by region. I have also used facebook for info about events, but that is simply because promoters don't post stuff on wecrash anymore. I don't get why, because it is a waaaaaaaay better source. I have spent some time before typing different key words in facebook to find a show. Wecrash, just go to your region and scroll, pretty easy to me... but what do I know? bottom line, facebook can go fornicate its self because it isn't needed, and for most things is a pain in the rear.

Thanks for sharing! I definitely prefer this message board, Just wish we could get more new younger members coming back active on here.
I have another youtube video releasing soon that we also did a Collab on, talking specifically about Wecrash.com and ideas to change the site and bring back bursts of life. It is not intended to be a verbal rip on wecrash or anything negative, just common trends noticed and ways to make the site more appealing to the next generation. It will be shared on here once uploaded.
I may not be a rich business millionaire, but I will always try to improve the demo derby community in anyway I can.

I'm right there with Mitch. I also definitely prefer this message board over Facebook for build advice and information. Facebook has its place in the world but you just can't replace the info on this site. We wanted to offer our thoughts on what could be done to help improve communication within the derby community and give our predictions on future trends that we are seeing based on our audience and what they are telling us. As DemolitionMissions mentioned, we also did a collab on just wecrash (coming soon) and our thoughts on what could be done to help bring people (particular the younger guys) back off Facebook and onto Wecrash. Offered as help and not negative, we would be happy to have off line conversations with moderators.

Post everyone's opinions. That is what a message board is all about. It would be good to hear new ideas. The best way to resolve an issue or come up with new ideas is to discuss them. This is everyone's site. The moderators simply try to put out fires and do housekeeping. As long as it's not "make it easier to post pictures ". Nobody can fix that. The owners of wecrash tried with the a new more user friendly site. Remember the brown one? Everybody had a baby over having to make a change so they came back to proboards. It was a better format and easier to post pictures. But everyone complained. We lost many members over it. I still don't understand why. Except for the fact that most people simply hate change. IDK

HA I remember the old brown one because it had 2 background color options and one of the 2 blinded you everytime you logged on.

Even I complained. Took literally 5 minutes to load every turn of the page.

2nd video is online. About Wecrash.com Specifically. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oo2B7tWUDdoI would be more than happy to sit down and discuss potential updated layouts to this website and help make it all happen.
