I sourced 5 S50B30 slugs (I actually got the full bottom end) for peanuts 2 years ago, From over there. The 6th one had gone through the block. :(

I put a wanted add up, I explained what I was upto, that I wouldn't mess anyone around and I was an active member on here. In the main I got a load of chew and time wasters. The bloke I delbt with was sound though.

I've not really been back since.

looks like my account has gone as well odd thing is I’m sure I’ve been a member on there for well over 8 months.

Have asked for a new account but still waiting for it to be given the nod.

Think this is going to do the forum quite a bit of damage but the only other option really is bimmer forum and I refuse to use a forum about BMW's with the word Bimmer in the title.

Can you imagine how many rude boys and bruv's must use that site, i was on it for a very short time and never went back.

Bimmerforums used to be okay, but the mongtards on there* became too annoying. When they went over to a wanky new website a month or so ago, I binned it off.

We've got a backup hard drive for the zone right? :o

my account doesn't exist, seems the only option I have is to send someone back in time to stop skynet from taking over and ensuring my future survival :D

I'm back on too, I had to get Doc to take me back in the delorean, 88mph was only achievable by bolting on a pierburg carb and throwing some rusty e36 arches in the flux capacitor :drive:

Ive only been back once since the outage.

A huge number of detailed posts I made have been lost, and I can't be arsed going back.

It took a while to get into, but I'd become quite a regular poster and it was on my frequent visit list, but it was always pretty flakey, but knowing there's no backup why should I bother tryin to be a part of it if it could all just vanish at any time.
cheers,

I wonder how many threads will mention "If you check out the e30 zone all the info is on there". I suppose e36 guys who buy e30's feel more at home asking them questions than joining up on a new forum
