Z4UM

sixspeed · 05-29-2007, 10:45 AM

Hollpe,

It wouldn't hurt to put a holding page on the front of Z4um.com for those that haven't found these, or other forums, and are wondering whats going on. May limit the damage (although it has been a long time) to say - yes we're going to be back in the next fortnight, or something like that!

It's gotta look better than a great FORBIDDEN error message anyway!

Well your z4um R.I.P. title doesn't help either!

SoCalS2k · 05-29-2007, 02:11 PM

Tho i can't say I was ever a z4um regular like the famous names around here, but I hope that if z4um comes back the atmosphere we have here doesn't dissapear. I for one love the flow of this site in the last few weeks, its been much more active, a super nice and congenial atmosphere, with funny posts mixed with some solid Z4 talk. I hope everyone else sticks around!

[QUOTE=hollpe;1013874]Hi Guys,

Sorry for the lack of updates, we are just in the process and getting the forum back up and running. Its taken a bit of time tracking all you guys down as you are spread across loads of different forums now!

Amir is currently getting the admin passwords reset and then we will be getting the issues with the site rectified.

This will also be the first time that the mods & admins will have direct access to the forum software so we will be updating it with the latest version, security fixes etc ASAP.

Measures have been put in place to ensure that this amount of downtime won't happen again.

We are aiming to get Z4UM back up and running in the next couple of weeks.

Apologies for not getting word to you sooner.

Cheers,

Pete.

Thanks for the update Pete. I was beginning to wonder WTF was going on over at Z4um..... It'll be good to have both ZPOST AND Z4um to cruise around on!!

(and I soooo hope that Z4um as reincarnated keeps things car-oriented and NOT too up itself with silly forum v. forum

)

Thanks again for your endeavours,

Mike

Love the emoticons over here guys!

Hey!! Good to hear from you. Glad to hear that the "Roaster" rattle free so far this week after extensive repairs. My Coupe remains rattle free and has never rattled!! I will also admit that I sometimes miss the topless experience specially on a slightly cool night with a full moon.

As soon as we get the passwords etc we will get that sorted. Unfortunately until then we can't do anything about the "Forbidden" message.

Cheers,

Are you talking about southpark67?

enfield · 05-29-2007, 08:31 PM

hollpe - southpark67 is the bear guy. I am the Z4M V guy

AlterEgo came up with the "V" - where the heck is he??

He's not here.... He is probably somewhere out in the woods looking for the "bear" necessities
