New Home

by **EFFalcon** » August 6th, 2007, 1:29 pm

Until further notice, this is the home of the eseries owners club.
The original!

It is hoped that we will stay here and that eseries.com.au will become much more integrated with this site then it currently is.

by **Commando** » August 6th, 2007, 1:57 pm

Yay!

So I take it you'll somehow manage to "migrate" such E-Series threads like "E-Series Members Cars Profiles" and "Tutorial Tech 1.2" etc etc to here?

by **EFFalcon** » August 6th, 2007, 2:02 pm

I don't know if i'll have much of a chance to migrate those kinds of thrads over.
its essentially a massive copy paste which will end up looking fiarly avaerage.

anything we can get over here would be advantageous, but i think we'll use this as an opportunity to start fresh.

by **Kenaz** » August 6th, 2007, 2:05 pm

This is good.

by **fordbaby** » August 6th, 2007, 2:08 pm

good one ya johnny boy.

ill have to make a thread about MY ef then

by **EFFalcon** » August 6th, 2007, 2:10 pm

hahah yes

by **holmsy** » August 6th, 2007, 2:14 pm

so is it going to be open to every tom dick and harry like the old forum?
or will there be some form of registration requirements?

by **spope** » August 6th, 2007, 2:18 pm

Start fresh = very good plan, IMHO.

There are a number of tech articles on eseries.com.au, perhaps if anyone thinks there is anything really worth migrating from the old forum, we can put it together as a tech article? Happy to do the work if people want it done.

this area will be, but there will be other areas that are restricted.

**** were nice people opening our doors to E-Series Owners Club

by **XR8TickfordBoy** » August 6th, 2007, 4:21 pm

Good work John,
I like having the e-series and boostedfalcon site together as everyone owns eseries boosted or not.
Having the seperate areas for boosted and NA helps keep everyone on the same site, which helps everyone that knows each other to communicate effectively and share ideas/knoweledge without having to go from site to site!
I hope that we can bring this club up to the high standard it was and should always be!

The best news ive heard all day!

Good work team e-series

by **Bipolar** » August 6th, 2007, 5:14 pm

You're a legend John. I can't believe how much time you put into this club.

Second that, John you never stop building on this club. Much respect for you and your hard work.

It's good to see everything is moving along.

by **LUXO_8** » August 6th, 2007, 5:19 pm

very good, just having a look around the updated forum
looks good:D

by **Rmyers** » August 6th, 2007, 5:22 pm

Long live the E-series club! (sorry i didn't have much more to contribute other than that lol)

by **slo_sprint** » August 6th, 2007, 5:44 pm

John, i think its safe to say that the effort you have put into the club is nothing more than extrodinary and its a real credit to you. Keep up the awsome work man.

by **pHaT`eL** » August 6th, 2007, 5:56 pm

Good to see the REAL club back in the right hands

by **holmsy** » August 6th, 2007, 6:05 pm

so is boosted and eseries both using a common tech section and workshop section?
can i suggest a newbie section for all the common little questions that annoy so many people.

glad to have our own forums. i think it will be alot better as it can be a bit more relaxed compared to aff.

by **XR_Lightning** » August 6th, 2007, 6:12 pm

good stuff john, im glad to see the e-series owners club is still going on, im not too happy with how things on AFF atm, with that EA-NL club bullshit and to be honest AFF is nothing without e-series on there

A newbie section would work best in a 'root' or the default area, the first board you visit. If you catch my drift. Half the problem is that the newbie dosen't bother to search out the right place to post, but just dumps it in the general section. Example being tech threads in the general section on 'the other place'.

Well crafted stickies and getting the balance between searching and thead mining drummed into members may also help keep the crap down to a minimum.

Hopefully this will see the club get back to it's roots, the vibe I got from the club was a laid back social place. Not bothered with formalities.

It should be nice to see the eseries.com.au site used more too.

Sweeeeeeeeeet.

by **Skooter** » August 6th, 2007, 8:24 pm

Good news to see the club have a home again.

I just thought of something semi related, what about having two workshop build sections one for the normal cars like mine and one for the boosted/serious performance cars?

by **EFFalcon** » August 6th, 2007, 8:36 pm

but where do you draw the line... at which point does a car become a serious build?
i can understand your point but yeh.. hard to consistantly enforce.

by **holmsy** » August 6th, 2007, 8:49 pm

can allways let the poster decide. most of us will know if we ever realistically will have a boosted or high performance car.
is better then no separation at all i suppose.
i was saying to a mate today. i tend to pay more attention to builds with smaller mods that i can actually do one day. where as turbo build threads intrest me less as i will never get to do it. in the next few years anyway.

by **pHaT`eL** » August 6th, 2007, 8:55 pm

Could just use the Showroom is theres minor mods, and the Workshop for more hardcore builds.

by **EFFalcon** » August 6th, 2007, 8:56 pm

even the awesome built cars are full of smaller ideas.
just skip the ones that don't interest you.

by **[D1SCNT]** » August 6th, 2007, 8:57 pm

i dont get it.

It would appeal to the minority who are only keen on performance. Where would it go?

yeh good point.

The old e-series section over at AFF is dead as, the same thread has stayed at the top of the page since the club left, its a bit of a shame but heres to a new start here without AFF admin!
