All Forums have to start somewhere.

Scoobynet would have started off as a gash forum with only 2 people on it.

Maybe Internet Brands will buy it and it'll become part of the family?

It is a pointless forum though, its like a ten year old has got hold of a standard phpbb template, not bothered to modify it or do anything at all with it apart from randomly adding a 'Jap forum' at the bottom for reasons unbeknown to human kind.

Not only that, but there is already a specific Forum for this (PassionFord.com) with sections for specific Cosworth models, something cossieheaven, a specific Cosworth site, have forgot to include.

Not offence to any ten year olds reading this.

Since its not yours I dont mind being a little harsh then

As mentioned above, the fact that it still displays the standard phpBB logo really is amateurish - any half competent webmaster would get that right before releasing to the public.

There is already a definitive ford forum of which the 'cossie' section has over 62,000 posts alone

http://passionford.com/forum/ford-si...0-cosworth-16/

Finally,

Why throw a token Jap forum in at the end? Ford and Jap owners are a world apart - I dont see how the two align on one forum.

I thought you just 'came across' this forum and 'thought others might like to know'

Anyway, tell him to look at admin/index.php, password reset requests are being accepted. "Milworm" I say no more.
