RE: The other forum...

storm - 5/2/2006 8:43 PM

all of a sudden P3 is my new home,... i'll not be going back to BW after today i think. I'll be emiling them and asking them to remove me from the mod position in the W210 section as soon as i finish this message.

Benzworld is dead,... long live Pointed 3!


wow Storm. That's quite a big step down, but I'm sure that if you can be the Mod here at P3. Just ask administrator. He's a nice guy.

He let me be the W140 mod.

Re: The other forum...

looks like "administrator" read your mind. I got tired of the same old same old at BW, too many people doing the same thing and asking the same questions again and again. Plus the whole logging in issue is still plagueing me over there. I feel that P3 will be a fresh start for alot of us.

Nothing personal against BW, jsut feel like it's getting a little too crowded & disorganized.

my last message was typed after i got locked out of BW,... AGAIN!! (login conflict with my old account)

RE: The other forum...

Sounds familiar...

I can't get into BW: I just get a "server is busy" message, but if I log in using a different username I'm straight in.  I have asked on the open forum and in PMs to admin why I am banned.  The response I got in the forum was: nobody has been banned : and my PM is unanswered.

This place is cool, and it's nice to be in on the action at the beginning.  In a few years' time we'll all be saying "I remember when P3 first started..."  It's just a shame that the new regime at BW doesn't like sharing us with other forums

RE: The other forum...

I hear the old forum was bought by a publishing company, and in a not-too-ethical way at that.  Some of you probably already know this, and the rest of us guessed something was up.  All is definitely NOT what it seems over there.  I've been banned for a week now, although they deny it.:

Hopefully P3 will go from strength to strength.

GOOD LUCK YOU GUYS!

Hehe, at the rate he's at, it'll take a few years, not even six. A guy at MBW has 30k posts in just 5 years I think.
