Hey, where did all the dudepitters go? Just curious...I haven't visited in a long time and it seems like the old site is gone. I bought a DJ5 from steve and I enjoyed the lakland forum. Oh well...

Perhaps that question is best asked of Dude. It's not a pretty story.

That's the best of the old Pit without Mr. Barr's influence.

thanks guys, I'll do some searching and reading. I guess a lot can happen when you stop hitting the boards for a while. I finally have inet at my new job so I'm getting back into it.

Too much drama, not enough consistency, continually changing formats and addresses - I gave up on it.

+1 to that, it had some usefull resources but IMO in the end it snatched defeat in the face of victory.

Same here. The latest format, IMO, is very hard to read. I haven't even registered this time around.

There are some cool members there and I'm glad to see they kept the concept going. I never understood all the BS with Dude and really didn't care enough to look any deeper into it. Then the forum was up, down, up down...........At some point, I just gave up.

The new forum looks better than ever.

Not too many left now, most have moved on to other places that have the great vibe of the original Dudepit with no pressure to buy patio furniture or Cialis.
