TRAFFIC Magazine... Bleahh!!

[netmatrix]

I dunno if he has issues with hisold company. And i'm not interested in hearing him comment either. If he does, it could go either way. And i'm not that inclined to negative remarks. But rather i'm a guy who like explanations by current people right here in PJ/KL right now. hahaha:_:

Yea i agree the quality of English needs to be upped.. it's pretty sickening to read the articles and notice plentiful grammatical errors. On the other hand.. the layouts are good and whoever's doing the Mental Modding photoshop is really good.

Traffic should really get a proper copywriter that can write real good English. C'mon! There's only a handful of English language tuner mags in town.. at least go on par if not above the rest. Content-wise is pretty good already~

And tone down on the Nihon-fanboyism. Sure it's fun, but having to read real tacky Japanese quotes every other lines is pretty embarassing.

why dont u jes send yer comments to traffic mag itself? dat'll be more chance of u getting yer message across than to post it here which will inevitably fan up more flames than constructive remarks

Yeah.. agree with blackhowling.. im very new in this industry and know nuts about cars.. but i believe it should be sent to Trafic directly instead of posting it out here.. You may be an expert in cars and I must admit you are way far ahead of me; but somehow you gotta keep a little pride to yourself instead of being the whitsle blower here..

Shoot me for posting this up but I've been a Traffic, Hypertune even K-Kompak reader for some time now and I find it quite interesting to do it their own way. It's all up to one's opinion and we can't just compare an apple to an orange. Imported mag have their own resources and goodness sake their mother toungue is English. No one can ever claim their English level is excellent. Is up to your own opinion. I still believe sometimes little "Manglish" seems fun.

I'm not defending any magazine here but I'm defending all publishing organization or even any organization. We sometimes have to be a little pro in handling stuff. What you do refelcts who you are. I'm not saying I'm good either. JUST MY 2 CENTS OPINION.

Anyway give comments to Traffic la then sendin bad reviews here.

My favourite mags are TRAFFIC n HYPERTUNE.

To me Traffic is also my favourite mag. Yes they do some mistakes n i did comment then n they listen. I even did this to Hypertune. Oh ya, I m sorry to say this but HYPERTUNE still made the same mistake since issue 16. DRIFT KING'S NAME IS KEIICHI TSUCHIYA NOT KELLCHI TSUCHIYA. Since b4 they dont know who was the drift king n given him a wrong name called "tetsuya techya". Now, KELLCHI ?????

At least Traffic was not as worst than one malaysian car mag i read. Bad info they put there. By the way this is my review.
