Whats the best forum for For BMW E36's

[pac1982]

looking for a couple of bits for my E36 and before i sign up for loads of random forums thought i would get peoples views on the best forum to use for the job.

Had a quick look for E36 Zone but only found E46 Zone

E36 coupe I find the best

[jaymos]

Ive just signed up to e36 coupe mate, seems ok.

[mabz]

have tried to sign up to e36coupe twice but cant get on there at all will try again at somepoint. im on m3cutters but not much

[fingerman]

As above, E36 Coupe seems the best, if you can get on there

[George]

+1 for E36coupe

[pac1982]

Seems E36 coupe is the best by far, just became a member drop by and say hello on my first post......

Don't think you can reply to them, get in the hi Im new page, I'm in there.

I got banned from there because I dared comment on the rediculously strict mods.

[david106]

what about if you've got a e36 touring can you still join e36 coupe

Yes, they can be very heavy handed.

[Simon13]

I put up an advert without having 100 posts and the advert was cancelled so I checked on all the other cancelled adverts (of which there were many) and saw that they had been cancelled for silly reasons such as....too few posts....no 'For Sale' included in the title (which is daft because it's in the For Sale section) , 'Read the Guidelines' and other such nonsense.

My argument wasn't that they had deleted the advert but simply the rude way they went about it. There was no Please or Thankyou in any of the reasons for deletion...just some pedantic muppet who has a God complex.

I then posted a thread saying 'Hitler was alive and well'
with the content reading ' And apparently a moderator on here' and they didn't find it amusing.

I then sent them an email asking them to 'Read MY guidelines and go %*! themselves. So I doubt I'll be welcomed back.

[Simon13]

i'm not surprised with that attitude, you won't get anywhere if you carry on like that.

[lance1a]

You again....

[Andyboy]

Yes, but it's fun.

The moderation over there can be very counter productive. Beemerlad had a really mint black leathee '36 interior, put it up for same and it was almost immediately removed because it was slightly too big - they really are paranoid about that over there.
So someone on there looking for a nice black trim lost out.

[Simon13]

i thought it would provoke a miserable response which it did. I actually agree with whats been said but where is the fun in that when theres some old codger like daimlerman/brianmoore to wind up?

[E30BeemerLad]

See, we're not all bad over here by comparison are we

Yeah Andy, I remember that, was a bit anal

Nothing like a bit of anal, so Everett tells me !


Lee, hows my New Yorker ?

[E30BeemerLad]

Thought I had a victim today but he walked, got a paddy coming for a gander at the weekend maybe.

It got dragged outside and had a bath today, now parked in front of the stately pile.

[Morat]

Pete's going to buy it, and sell me a Cherokee at a bargain price to make space

*click*
aaaaand you're back in the room

[harry_p]

it should be a decent forum, i just can't seem to want to get involved in it, and there seems to be a lot of bad 'knowledge'

i had to search and read through a huge amount of posts with conflicting opinions and 'fact' to answer a simple question about what front bushes my car should have.

had i been looking for similar information on here i have no doubt i would have found the answer virtually straight away. maybe it's because i dont spend enough time on there to know who's who and who's really knows their stuff

[leeparkes]

They love the Dave F over there

Not a bad forum but the for sale section takes the pish. Non forum based sale section = Fail.

[DanThe]

There are actually quite a few clued up members on there, or there were at one time, only they hardly post anymore and never bother to correct the bullshite artists that now prevail

[Andyboy]

there seems to be a lot of bad 'knowledge'

"get the fault codes read m8" etc etc etc.

[si-]

anyone know anyone on this forum i was a member tried login in and cant remember my details, so tried asking for a reminder email and it wouldnt send one as i it needs my username - which i cant remember then tried re-registering and it wont let me because my email is already in use!!

[MattTheHat325]

I joined it a while back, i know what you mean about the knowledge. There are basically 3 topics that get spoken about, fitting an m50 manifold to a 328, fitting an m3 exhaust to a 328 and coilovers. I know you guys get irritated by the same old same old being asked time an time again but that place is mental, literally within 5 new threads someone is on the case again with one of these subjects.
Some nice cars on there though and most of the users seem decent enough

[whiterhino]

i joined there when i perchased my e36. cant really rubissh the site but will probably post on here for tech help as i know there are some very knowledgeable here. or maybe im just more used to it here

[Andyboy]

There's a lot of E36 knowledge on here!
