SAD NEWS, FROM ED: Forum's future

[BigD]

I was just chatting with Ed and it doesn't look good for the forum's future. He will make the official announcement later today, but basically as much as he loves it, his new business venture is so time consuming that maintaining this site has become unrealistic. And he just plain doesn't like some of the people on here. I have to agree with him on both counts.

[Marshy]

Maintaining the whole site has become too time-consuming, or maintaining the forums?

As for not liking people, that's part and parcel of the game when forums get popular.

This site is of huge value to a great many people and we can only be grateful for the time it has been in existence. I think we all underestimate and, to a degree, take for granted, the fantastic work the Ed and others have put into this forum. If the sites days are numbered then I would just like to thank Ed for everything he has done for the E34 community, I personnaly have learned a great deal along the way which has served to elevate my appreciation of these great cars and the many good folk who own them. If this is the end of the road feel no guilt or regret Ed, your work will be remembered for a long time among the masses that have enjoyed and valued your contribution to E34 ownership. I hope the work goes well and that the future holds nothing but success.

It can't go away!! here I am at 3:20 in the morning surfing around, it must have something worth keeping it going.

Here we go as I mentioned as the change was taking place, it will probably be registration only to post with a membership charge.

This sucks.

I do not like ANY of the other sites Ed is bored with it, what if it just goes back to the old format that was a lot easier for him?

Ed you hear me?

dammit.

Dude, I was hoping of all people you'd get it. Check your calendar.

Dammit, you scared the crap outta me. I'm just starting to try to do little work on my car myself and then I read that. My stomach flippped. That was good.
