Maxtek Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 At least the spam is making the forum a bit more active, it's been pretty dead lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StuBeeDoo Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Sadly a few members seem to have moved to another forum too Really? There's another E46 forum?? Or do you mean that they've moved-on from E46s? I'd have thought the latter more likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do you mean that they've moved-on from E46s? I'd have thought the latter more likely. Yep, sadly a group of users from here moved to another forum, by the sound of it it's a fairly new forum. I don't think it's specifically an E46 forum though. You may have noticed that a few of the more frequent posters on here haven't posted in a while.

I don't think it's specifically an E46 forum though. Well, I don't plan on emigrating. I'm not the most prolific of members, but I'm happy here. Yep, sadly a group of users from here moved to another forum What? En masse?? Someone done/said something to offend them? You may have noticed that a few of the more frequent posters on here haven't posted in a while. Only noticed a small number. Just thought the shorter, cooler, days were to blame - plus other commitments/interests, of course. Ooooohhh, haven't seen Chimp or feva for a while..... Those were two that sprang to my mind.

Maxtek Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 I have no intention of leaving here either, I like it here, very friendly and helpful place. What? En masse?? Someone done/said something to offend them? I'm not sure about numbers but I had a brief look at the other forum a couple of days ago after I heard and it seems there was a handful of members that migrated, mostly northerners. Ooooohhh, haven't seen Chimp or feva for a while..... I can't say I saw them on the other forum, but I only had a very brief look around there. I did however see Jay and some of the people he's quite friendly with on there. I hate gossip and feel like I shouldn't publicly announce the name of the other forum or the reasoning behind the move, especially when I haven't heard it directly from the horses mouth.

Sam Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Jay and I bickered, but it didn't see it being that bad. He was a very active member on here and was knowledgeable. It gets quite this time of year, I've got many years of stats to back that up, if they've moved on, so be it. There are plenty of members still. No doubt it'll pick up again. You lot just need to post more! momo, Maxtek and StuBeeDoo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley1995 Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Yeah saw the "BMWbox" posts that had started on Instagram a while back. I don't intend on leaving. It's a shame some of the knowledgeable members aren't using this site anymore. Seems a little petty to me? I enjoy browsing the forum everyday. Even though I haven't had an E46 for well over a year now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk StuBeeDoo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DazRave Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 It's a shame some of the knowledgeable members aren't using this site anymore. Seems a little petty to me? I hope there is no offence taken by any long standing members of the Zone. Certainly nothing petty involved either. I'm one of the founding members of BMWBOX, which was started as a dedicated club to multi-modelled BMWs. A lot of active members on the Box are still very much active here too. As for Jamie, I won't speak on behalf of him but I doubt there is any negativity towards the Zone, he's simply just investing his spare time in making BMWBOX work which is something he always wanted to give a go. Hope that clears a few things up! Darren Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk StuBeeDoo, das_flo, TriggerFish and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
