i guess either scrape them off becasue 1addicts.com is no longer in existance or add a /forums to the end of it. .

"/forums"

$5 to the first to do this...Keep it O.G.

I just don't understand the negativity here. Aside from the lack of a home page that was practically pointless, I don't see what we've lost. There are only two things I could see hurting 1Addicts because of this. First is if they change the rules, such as no racing/kill stories or the restrictions on vendors, so long as these stay I think the community will be more or less the same. The second thing that could affect it is if people freak out over nothing and leave.

Seriously, the user experience has hardly changed. There's a few more icons here and there, as well as the strip at the top with all the links. Other than that the 1Addicts theme is still in place. I've always just used my history to bring up a forum rather than a bookmark, but the bookmark I have is directly into the Coupe forum, not the front page. And as I see it, we've been given a prominent position on bimmerpost and 1Addicts is being treated with all due respect. And they've already added our color threads to the bottom of the home page. How cool is that?

It seems to me that all the owners, admins, moderators, etc. involved in this are determined to keep it right. Let's give them a chance and assume that it'll be a positive change. What is the point of being negative about it?

Your decal is still applicable as the 1ADDICTS moniker is incorporated within the 1-Series header on the Bimmerpost forums page, besides, that's the name of the forum, see top of page.

cannot even sign on to my old username anymore... dissappointing...

warmtoes · 01-25-2009, 03:29 PM

The only thing different I see right now is the lack of the yellow highlight for the new posts in a thread. How can we tell they are new now?

guardianangel3290 · 01-25-2009, 05:36 PM

did the site just go down or was it just my connection?

I believe we just experienced some turbulence - use care in opening the overhead bins as contents may have shifted during flight. ; -)

I don't know if this has been posted but I am too angry to look through the thread. when I go to my user cp all my thread subscriptions are gone, except for the ones i've posted to since the changeover WTF

Here's a thought, contact the admins and give them some time as they are most likely quite busy and perhaps they can resolve this issue. In a change of this magnitude some issues are to be expected.

PLEASE change this -

Community forum not the Army

You can edit your profile and change it to what you like.

this is what i heard from the merger, e90post user ids and profiles have a higher impact on 1addicts usernames?

The ONLY problem I have with E90post is in a detailed post I did about 4 months ago. I would of found it, but our search tool is buggin! =)
I just do not like the negativity that floats around.
