I'm going to see about activating the requirement that users need to have a minimum number of posts to use private messages. I don't see any reason for brand new members to need private messages - why would they? They are new and don't know many people. Forcing new people to communicate in the...

These people were not vendors. It appears to be a scammer who knew how to prey on new folks that were looking for parts.

I don't remember it. It might have been two in the reported queue that were spammed cleaned though. Possible. Who posted the thread, a new person?

Congratulations Andy! That is a heck of an achievement and very uncommon in this industry, no doubt about that!

Picture from the Z3 Forum

Searching Google for that email address pops up a reference to some BMW M5 parts.....

I am sorry that this has happened to you. I have located Mitchell71 in the database. The email with the user ID is: "[email protected]". The Douglas name you list and the email associated with it, [email protected], is not in the GT40s.com database. Meaning, no one...

Facebook has its place. But as a long-term storehouse of information it is far less than ideal.

No, there isn't and the Xenforo app isn't good. For that reason Facebook groups are sometimes more popular than forums, if the forum doesn't have a large critical mass to anchor it. We have a Facebook group for GT40s.com but no one uses it.

Hi Folks, got it sorted. Somehow, it did not auto upgrade when the transaction occurred. Thanks for the heads up and sorry about the problem there. Thank you, Ron

Man, such a beautiful car!! Glenn hate to see you selling it but you've certainly had and done much with this car.

Awesome trip and visuals, thanks for posting!

That's a shame. Long-lived site and it needs help to maintain it for future folks. Would hate to see it be lost.

Not much I can do either I'm sad to say. Have you tried just a simple cut and paste into your message? For example, the picture you see below I put there by Copy and Paste - no uploading or linking pictures or pushing a button on the forum, good old fashioned Cntl-C and Cntl-V.

It's absolutely fixable. But they need to make a decision over there to hire professional folks in to do the job. They exist.

I know a great forum repair outfit who I've worked with in rescuing two other dead and corrupted forums. I don't know if Brent Mills is still the guy there or not, but if someone wants to put me in touch with him or the IT person maybe I can make some connections. And as far as me, well...

Absolutely weird. I cannot get it to at all. Phone, tablet, PC, wifi or cellular data.

I was reading a post by one of the new members and he mentioned ClubCobra, a somewhat sister site to this one that has been in operation for a long time. I went over to visit and I can't get it to come up, but can see some posts in Google from Feb 7th where the site is broken or going down...

This is a rather unique situation since this thread was started nearly five years ago, but if selling parts is an ongoing concern then the original poster should be a continuing supporter of the forum at a minimum, and possibly a vendor.
