I wish mazda6club forum can do something..

[Jliao]

I really can't stand that damn board, it's so trashy compare to vbulletin; yet, the admins seem to be careless about upgrading it. There are great people over there, but I just wish those people would come here or go migrate to another forum that has better forum setup. :/

Sorry for the vent.. it's just the board throws me off everytime I go there and read....

mazda6club has the majority of Mazda6 enthusiasts but we at Mazda Forums totally welcome and encourage you guys to the join the community! I mean that...if there is anyway I can be more accommodating please let me know (thumb)

Also, let me know if there is any serious interest in a migration from mazda6club to here, thanks!

 

[the orracle]

Site must be down?(scratch) Don't work for me

 

[Necessity]

I get most of my information from mazda6tech.com . The guys there know their 6s.

 

[Jliao]

Cool! Talk about tech..they have about the best how-to I've seen around. It ven has video attached to the post.

Mazda6club is down as well, I "HOPE" they're upgrading to a new forum...

not to mention it's kinda boring over there. the primary admin doesn't own a 6, i believe he owns a protege, he's rarely on the board. it might be different if it were run by someone who actually owns a 6, or wanted one.
i'm over here too, just not that many posts about our 6.

haha nice to see some familiar names... what's funny is i caught the link to this site from a DDR board...

 

[Jliao]

I forgot to add that there seems to be more and more people joining that board...

Yay! Another 6 member on this board!!


Welcome to the board Karena!

 

[A10ZA03]

thanks jimmy!!

BTW... sorry about the pics.. i guess i never uploaded them... were you referring to the black housing tailights? mine aren't that dark... only lightly tinted and so far no one has really noticed unless i'm next to another car with regular chrome... otherwise they still see the shine and think nothing of the tint...

oOoOoH did anyone check out the headlights on the 6 hatch and wagon?? they're black chrome!! i want a pair of those!

 

[Jliao]

nO! I wanna see them too!

Welcome to the board Karena!

More people joining mazda6club despite it being "boring" among other problems...well that sounds like pclub back in the day...that board was growing like mad but never had much activity...I think it's because of search engine placement...potential members do a search than click on what comes up first...they are excited to see such a community and join quickly but realize after it's not all that great.

If you get enough Mazda6 owners to migrate here and become more active...I'm sure you will all enjoy this community If anyone is willing to carry out such a plan...I'm listening!

Cool! (thumb) Welcome Karena

Antoine, Thanks for the offer! I do enjoy my stay here already -- the people, the admin, the mod, the enourmouse amount of info I've learned, and last.. the nicely setup forum.

In addition, I've already thought about getting people either here or 6tech. Though, I would feel a shame if I make a post on 6club asking people to migrate to other board. For that reason, I'll leave it to the users to decide whether or not to migrate to other forum. I just WISH the great people over there can take a look at other types of forum setup, and compare it to the forum setup on 6club. Moreover, 6club forum is decently active, it's just the fact that the forum it's so bad that throws me off from reading it. Imagine you have to go thru each category to see new posts since your last visit, imagine you search through 60 pages of Member List, then you find out you can't PM the person but only see their profile, and the list goes on... :/

thanks antoine! i'm enjoying my stay here as well

hehe... jimmy how much you wanna bet you'd be threatened with being banned for even mentioning another mazda site over at the 6club? hahaha... they don't like competition... we still don't have stickers over there!! and it's been open over a year now! even their mazda3 sister site has stickers already.. what a shame... anywho.. i think most people find the mazda6club because it's one of the bigger sites specifically for the 6... a lot of the other boards are made up mostly of another car and have a 6 section... it can get a bit intimidating sometimes.. remember when i first went to MOCC? i feel intimidated there because everyone else has a protege... and i like to meet other people in these car groups but if the thread says protege only meet then i feel left out... you know what i mean... even though it's sad that i'm seeing the 6club take a nosedive in manners i feel more comfortable there because it's all mazda6.. so i don't have to be worried about being the oddball...

i think more and more people are starting to make the migration elsewhere though... a lot more people are complaining about more than just the forum setup... like me.. it's not the forum setup that bites.. it's the moderator attitudes... they're getting high and mighty and not actually doing their moderating duty... like i noticed some of them like to instigate a fight... and then behold their powers of locking!

BTW.. did you ever get in touch with thorsten (driver6)?

i found my tail pics... but it's pretty much useless because they were taken at night so it makes the tint look dark than during the daytime... maybe i'll see if my husband ever took day pics tonight and upload them..

 

[Jliao]

A10,
Yep! I feel you~~~ That's why I wish those 6club readers can come here

Also, I love the look if it was THAT dark. But can't judge it until I see the day light pic~

 

[nautec]

Well, THis is my first post over here, I am one of those frequent mazda6clubbers so Just wanted to post in various places. Hope i could provide good information here.

 

[Jliao]

Welcome!

Even tho there aren't many 6 owners here as 6club, but the more people we get here, the more information we can share!

 

[nautec]

Another forum to post on, yay, well there goes my vacation. (yippy)

Couldn't have said it better myself Plus...it's not boring here

i've been here for a while, i just set up the meets. bout 90% of my posts are from setting up the meets. and yeah, it's intimidating being surrounded by so many protege owners, but i don't care as long as they don't make a big deal about it. and i've met some really cool people from this board (aka linuxracr)
