I miss the old days.
>>
>>29144437
when has that happened?
>>
>>29144439
Doug came here once a long time ago and had a meltdown, then at some point Moog from Mighty Car mods also came here and had a big meltdown and then ended up posting on the MCMforums about how much he hates /o/. Both of these things were easiy about 10 years ago at this point I think, but the Moog one was funniest since he ended up just posting in his hugbox with fans on their own forum after.
>>
>>29144442
I was here ten years ago. I'm quite shocked I didn't see it. It must've been when doug was a lot less popular or barely even known on the internet. the thought of him doing that now seems outrageous.
>>
>>29144446
Yeah I doubt he'd bother now, 4chan doesn't have the same presence it used to and YouTube has changed a lot since then too. I'm still not a huge fan of Doug honestly and think he's a bit of a tard, but he still manages to find interesting cars and has been successful with keeping the same formula going all this time.
>>
>>29144428
No there's like one about a Trabant and you'd be surprised at the lack of buttons and switches.
>>
>>29144442
Well, /o/ is pretty shit in general.
I come here to see the negative side of anons' opinions.
>>
>>29144468
There's positive and negative stuff on here, it's just that Doug and Moog got criticism they didn't like and had freakouts about it. Maybe they're just internet boomers and have that "keyboard warrior" mindset, who knows, it was just really stupid for them to come here and respond to people criticizing them instead of just ignoring it.

>not just skipping the drive/score portions and only watching for the purposes of knowing what every button does/how to open the fuel filler/how to operate the e-brake on random shitboxes of various rarity
That portion is more to satisfy the normies desu, and even those drives and ratings are usually pretty shitty. The older, slightly more unhinged stuff was the peak anyway.
>>
>>29144442
Man I wish I still had the screenshots from moog's "disrespect" spergout. That shit was so funny. This place is hell now, it's just a never ending parade of unfunny niggers forcing stupid catchphrases to try and create a new meme.
>>
>>29144472
True, I click off once he's done showing off the features of a car.
>>
>watching a tutorial
>video starts with half the engine block already disassembled
>shitty mumble rap playing throughout the entire video
>selfie shots of the asshole uploader talking about shit that has nothing to do with the purpose of the video

imagine watch this guys videos. there are dozens of better car channels.

it was absolute /o/ kino

>>29144428
congratulations anon, you discovered his niche style of youtube content which earned him 5 million subscribers and millions of dollars

Car Youtubers ruined car culture

>>29144428
who the fuck watches Doug's video fro the driving ?
>>
>>29144446

Not that I would like to admit. I have been here since 2006/7 and was part of the tripfag invasion pre 2010. I dont remember any jewtubers turning up here at all.
>>
>>29147444
Because it didn’t happen.
>>
>>29144446
I was there. I think it was actually much more than 10 years ago now. kind of sad to think how far this site has fallen off. nobody would bother doing that now, even the most minor guys. I don't even know why anybody posts here now. the internet has moved on.
>>
>>29147504
4chan has become basically irrelevant because the ability of a single retard to shit things up in massive volumes became inescapable and the ratio of bullshit to discussion changed as people who posted in earnest aged out and left. I think the inflection point was around the time that one faggot kept spamming the board with porn and coming back with new IPs. There's basically no way to ban someone in 2026 and there are more retards on the internet now than ever.

I don't know why I come here anymore. I guess for all of my lack of other vices I wound up addicted to shitty websites.
>>
>>29147521
I think it's much more than that actually, the bigger obvious factor is that the popular sites like tiktok, youtube, instagram, and so on, are just more entertaining

4chan is ultimately mostly text focused, and that's just not as entertaining as videos or short videos, which is what the majority of people spend their time on
>>
>>29144428
This is what his videos are for. They're quick overviews that just give you an idea of what the car is like. I don't really give a shit about a full mechanical breakdown and track focused evaluation of a new BMW X7M or some niche 80s survivor car. Not everyone has to be savagegeese. If you want to watch savagegeese then just go watch savagegeese.
>>
>>29144428
99% of car reviews suck and they have no idea what the fuck they're talking about. They're not car guys. To them, a car is like a really expensive purse.


For performance cars, the review should be an actual tracking of the car at its limits, going over its design limitations, parts cost, repairs, engineering design, and pulling the engine for a full tear down. There really is no excuse for some huge channels or big shows like say, Top Gear back in the day, to not buy each car outright and tear it completely apart for the review.

I literally fucking told you clowns and you said I was a liar

>>29144428
He's a retard, knows SHIT about cars, and his little podcast is his dumbass and two little sissy wimp cucks with the most faggot coded voices on the planet, who also know nothing about cars outside of what they can read on wikipedia. My natural feeling is that I have to kill both for them for being weak and disgusting enuchs. Doug is a retard but he gets to live.

Doug "I have a gt40 btw" Demuro

>>29147603
This. His content is trash for normie idiots. He doesn't even have good taste.
>>
Throttlehouse is unironically the best car channel. The main guy, Thomas actually started his channel by doing full engine swap/breakdowns of old bmw's. His sidekick is a miatafag, and kinda gay but he has encyclopedic knowledge of model years and body styles. The editing is great and they both have decent taste in cars. 8/10 overall.

scotty doesnt do this
