Please leave all 1M threads on this site!

MODERATORS

Why are threads being moved??

Isn't the 1M community small enough that they could all be left here?

At least for me, this forum will become far less interesting unless EVERYTHING 1M related remains here.

And I'm not about to go to the general 1 series suspension forum to discuss 1M-specific set-ups!

Please reconsider!

Neil

They are still in the 1M section of 1Addicts, just categorized. Which I would like if were like M3Post, but if you hit "New Posts" you are then directed to every new post on 1Addicts not just 1M related. So there is no real convenient way to see a quick overview of all the new 1M posts. In fact it is a bit more cumbersome now that it is divided into sub categories.

Solution: Create a 1MPost!

I agree, leave them here. It would be really annoying to have to read through a bunch of stuff I am not interested when only about 1M specific threads only make up 1-2% of all threads made on these boards.

The only exception should be cars for sale.

I'm surprised too. I was just thinking there really wasnt too much activity on this site as it was - I cant imagine splitting it into multiple sites already.

I'm with the mods on this one but I really think they should create 1Mpost like Mr.Metak2you said.

I think we need a dedicated site too. I don't drive a 135i - I drive a 1M.

Took a second look and, as pointed out above, there are now 1M subfora -- our 1M-related postings haven't as I mistakenly first thought been mixed in with "non-M" 1 series stuff.

However, I still prefer going to a single place to see all that is going on, whether suspension, tune or wheel-related.

+1 on a single "place"

I don't think the size of the 1M community and hence the volume of threads justifies the need for sub-categories...

Do you?

I agree Please leave All 1M posts in the same location. Even the M3 forum isn't divided into sub categories.
