Forum Cleaning

[adamd]

Hi all,

Just a quick note, I'm going to be going through the forums cleaning up and restructuring a bit over the next few days, just things like merging the two event forums etc.

If anyone notices things moving around it's just me, if anyone notices anything going missing that shouldn't just give me a shout and I'll put it back.

Cheers.

Good to see the forum is being given some love and attention

Yes Bob's right. Some of ageing the posts certainly create a dated appearance. Just one comment on that, although I am very non computer savvy. In the technical section for example, some old posts may contain info still of value. Or maybe on aspects like parts sourcing. Could that be held in some sort of "useful historical information" section. Which would explain why, although dated, it is still of value.

Thanks Adam too, for your expert help on the electronic news letter - much appreciated. Harvey tells me you hope to get to Toyota Retro Carlisle, April 8th - Dan Kelly from Donegal and I will come across in my gen 3 MR2, stay at the Jct 44, Premier Inn Sat pm, so we look forward to that.

Sadly with Photobucket kicking all its customers in the butt any technical threads are diluted without a photo to back it up

Thanks Adam,appreciate the tidy up long overdue just tidy rearrange as you see fit

That's the plan up to now - stuff like Technical posts will always apply so they'll be left alone, old events threads are being archived as they might still contain photos, other threads like old For Sale ads I'm just moving to a hidden archive for a short time incase they need to be put back, and I'll clean them from there once they're definitely no longer needed.

The photobucket thing is a bugger, I am going to try and recover any of those if I can as I come across them and remove the warnings, as it just slows down loading the thread if it tries to load 20 copies of the "give us your money" warning. I do wonder how many users they've lost due to that change.

Also yeah, looking forward to Carlisle, it's a nice run out for me. Probably be taking the Corolla up again. Might take the GT86 as I had the Corolla last time, although the Corolla does fit in better with Retro.
