Some dude thinks our community is " narrow minded "

Come back mattyeR20, we still love youuuuuu......

No polo section, no love from me.

Same here. No Polo = No love. I find this forum personally better for me anyway

VWW was started by a guy who ran a dairy farm in NW Tassie to share with other MK1 enthusiasts knowledge and parts as he had a GLD.

golf.net was set up by a pair of serial forum builders who establish internet real-estate gain a great deal of sponsorship and advertising before moving on to the next start up.

Which is better - well that really comes down to personal preference. I used to cross-post on golf.net but no one really cared that I was pouring money into a 1970's Golf so I decided it wasn't worth the effort just to help increase their traffic.

On the whole I am a bit tired of forums and prefer to hang out in person these days.

I like VWW because I'm a car enthusiast and am interested in all types of cars and modifications, not just a narrow selection. I've found the VWW very friendly (of course there are one or two, but they never seem to hang around long...).

Bloody Hell. We've had tune wars ... now we got forum wars!!!

There is no forums wars , no-one (except myself) turned up to the forum battle earlier this year ....

This site did better in Google results when researching the Mk6 Golf so this is where I joined. No real need to post on multiple forums, and there's more than a few times I've found interesting tricks or upgrades for my car from reading threads in the Polo/Tiguan, etc sections.

Using the search function before posting is general forum etiquette anyway. Everyone's time is valuable (unless it's a quiet day at the office)

This !

A forum for enthusiasts vs a commercial venture .

Golf net, as many others have said is newer models. The only threads I've ever seen there are 'Got a tune. It's sick"

VWW4LYF. Haha.

Agree, went to their Dyno day at 9:30am after finishing work at 3am and added my name to the list to get my car on. Waited and waited and was then told "we are not going in order of the list". They were putting on all the Golf R's even stock ones, my car was the most modded there, no one had a bigger turbo, yet they would rather see stock cars and cars with flashes on the dyno. Anyway by the time i got my car on, it was 4:30-5pm, only a few guys there, everyone had gone and no one was intertested to see what my car would do, i was really pissed by then. Remind me never to go to one of their Meets again. End of rant
