History of the Forum?

[heavyd]

Thanks for running the forum SteveP, I've learned a lot from here, and have been helped out a lot aswell
Just hope the future admin runs it the same way

Just want to say thanks to Steve for his hard work on this site. I don't post on here that often but visit nearly everyday and it is by far one of the best forums I have been on.

Easiest to navigate, welcoming, most helpful forum with a real sense of community. Congrats to Steve and the admin team 

Mate some good mates from here and still meeting more forum members all the time (Great to meet you today Sie)

You will have just as much fun in a 'standard' GTI as you would a 2+.

I would even do it in the Touran, be a right laugh

(
I have a couple of annecdotes first:

1. Doing Donington last year just after Inters i saw my brakes get so hot i had no brakes left, so i had to do 3 laps without using them, while doing that i lapped a stock mk 5 GTI  (mine being a stage 3)

2. Doing Knutstorp last saturday a swede who's cupra was at the workshop, took the r888's and fitted them to his chipped but otherwise stock caddy, he had just as much fun as the rest of us.


Back to the subject a trackday meet would allow a lot of people to experience the mods the might have considered, so an excellent idea IMO

Please start a new thread if you want to organise a forum meet 

Back to the topic in hand, this place needs a new admin so keep the PM's coming 

Is there a deadline before lights out?

[SteveP]

Ideally needs to be done in the next 3 weeks.

[JPC]

Really sorry to hear this, Its been a great place for the last few years. I wish I was technically competent enough to do what steve does, i hope we remain with the same ethos that has made this place great over the last 4 years

What happens if no one steps forward in three weeks? 

[GOLDENBOY]

yes big thank you to steve ad the other moderators for all their work so far   

[Eccie]

Is it time to consider an annual membership fee along the lines of £10 that way we can pay someone (hopefully a member) to help Steve & the gang to keep the site running. It may suit someone whos self-employed

There is a lot of great advice & info built up on this site over the years, it would be a shame to lose it. We also make that info free to anyone, if they (the greater public) want access maybe they should join and fund the site through additional membership

Just an idea

....Hold on, a change is a comin'!:

^ SteveP blacks up pretty well  

[Tortaruga]

Superb forum...it shouldn't just die. I'm certainly willing to pay a yearly sub if that's what it takes to keep it going. I'm sure most folks here have saved a few quid due to advice, tips, etc. from others. Although no doubt most have spent more than they thought possible!

Thanks Steve and all the others involved (I don't know you, but hey) for all your hard work.
