LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, CAN I PLEASE HAVE YOUR ATTENTION!

by raska Mon Aug 25, 2014 4:05 am

I've just been handed an urgent and horrifying news story. I need all of you to stop what you're doing and listen.

I`m giving it legs again. I can`t commit much time of my own to running it, but I`ve got it hosted and will install phpBB or similar in the coming days. I need admins, ideas, etc. I`m game for ideas and management that will make it better than ever. PM me or post ideas and thoughts here.........

www.automobileforum.com once was lost, but now it`s found. Twas blind, but now it sees.

I'd like to be a mod, it's a fun job.

I liked the categories that we originally had with all the car stuff.

I hope this is for realz. :millertime:

by Tailhappy Mon Aug 25, 2014 9:07 pm

Who cares? :shrug:

by millertime Mon Aug 25, 2014 9:32 pm

At 12:09am this morning Raska emailed me a link to this thread. My response was the following:

uh, what?

why?

I have yet to receive his reply.... Haha.

I think I was a mod at old af

by Turbojett Tue Aug 26, 2014 2:07 am

we could, like, keep Jay as admin. I mean he hasn't burned anything down or broken anything in the past six years.

by JaysonAych Tue Aug 26, 2014 3:01 am

Well, I broke the site's graphics once. Forumotion makes this place almost idiot-proof for me to fuck up too badly.

Raska and I briefly discussed the admin thing. I can do it during the few hours per day that I can actually show up these days.

by Swerve Tue Aug 26, 2014 5:09 am

I'll mod the sports & GT cars section. It'll be full of Civic hatches and Grand Nationals, which are neither sports nor GT cars and therefore do not belong in that section.

by Pennzoil GT-R Tue Aug 26, 2014 9:54 am

Rampages on other forums :aaahahahaaa:

Thats where most of our members came from in the first place

by Dodge Tue Aug 26, 2014 3:48 pm

We should turn this shit into the next jalopnik, that thing is a cash cow now.

Oh joy, let's gather up all 5 remaining active members and head on over. :doodeedoodeedoo:

by Tailhappy Wed Aug 27, 2014 8:47 pm

Honor knows whats up.

by Talon Wed Aug 27, 2014 9:54 pm

Heaven forbid we try to get new members... :shrug:

by Honor Wed Aug 27, 2014 9:59 pm

What are we Jehovah's Witnesses now?

by Talon Wed Aug 27, 2014 10:15 pm

No. The difference is, they [the new members] will come to us.

by Honor Thu Aug 28, 2014 12:01 am

Hopefully some chicks...

Oh shit raska, you'd better embed a Google Maps interface.

Bitches love internet forums.

by ryguy79 Fri Aug 29, 2014 3:59 pm

not sure if the heyday of af circa 2002ish can ever be recreated.

by Swerve Sun Aug 31, 2014 12:43 am

It does have the faint whiff of a lame reunion movie, or a Simpsons season 27.
A worse scenario is that it's a wildly successful car forum, but you've got original members constantly saying how we were here since 2002 and therefore the Venom GT is shit!

by SBF Sun Aug 31, 2014 9:28 pm

So has this happened yet?

by ascona Mon Sep 01, 2014 10:51 am

I clicked the link in the first post, no forum showed up ......

by Tailhappy Mon Sep 01, 2014 11:40 am

Trolololololololol

by Talon Mon Sep 01, 2014 1:01 pm

And Raska hasn't been back since. :mercifulend:

by ascona Mon Sep 01, 2014 2:46 pm

as we say in dutch: "making someone happy with a dead sparrow"
