format change
 
oso went to the new format 6 months ago.a lot of people including myself did not like it and at least 1 guy quit the site because of it.now the old format is a distant memory but i now like the current format.how do you guys feel about it now?

its not about the format as much as it is the people here :cool:


I had faith although i was not initially to fond of the change. Mostly little things though like the way the quick navigation flyout works.

Artie didn't quit , just took a vacation . He's here but doesn't post much . He is a better dude than given credit for around here , really loves our sport and has contributed to offshore racing as a safety boat . There is much more to Artie than meets the keyboard and those that are so quick to bash will never know . I'm happy to say he is a personal friend of mine and we speak on the phone often . Like sometimes happens to ALL of us he has had some bad chit happen in his personal life in the recent past and we really need to give him a pass . Is this not how a brotherhood works , when in need I've got your back .

I can get used to about anything, like g-dave said, it's more about the people and how they act and lately their hasn't been as much silliness.

i was not slamming artie,i thought he was ok but wore his heart on his sleeve.sometimes you need thick skin around here espically in wintertime.

Haha all very true most b****ed for about a week and revolution was about to occur but now every one got used to it and the changes were all for the better great job oso !!!

Pretty much the same thing has happened every time OSO had any major changes to the board.

Payton 12-08-2013 07:36 AM

I got used to the changes soon enough. OSO is still the main website I go to.

There is plenty of silliness. Look at the OL thread. Almost a fist fight by now.

OSO - best site for information. Anything form destinations (storing your boat in Florida), technical (converting my engines to EFI), and new products (40' Mystic build)

P B N - not enough members yet but picking up momentum. Best threads on the boating lifestyle. One of the poker run threads had several hundred large pictures all posted at once (not a few teasers here and there every day or so). After that thread I felt like I had been there with them. I can't recall any drama I have read.

M W B P - favorite site because it's all the people I get to see every weekend at LOTO!

All 3 provide hours of entertainment and help me get through these long winters. 2" of snow last night so I'll probably check all 3 sites about 100 times each today :)
