tomturd Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 Trials-forum announces new partner website, BMX-Forum.co.ukDue to the ever increasing number of BMX topics being opened there, we have made a brand new forum specifically for the BMXers amongst us.We'll be the first to admit we do not have an ounce of BMX knowledge between us, but we'd like to think we've learned how to run an alrightish forum over the past 5 or so years (I'm sure theres a few who would contest this statement!). We will be looking for experienced BMX riders to join the moderating team over there, so if you think you've got what it takes (patience!) then let us know.One thing to take note of is that BMX-Forum and Trials-Forum share the same member database. This means if you have an account on Trials-Forum, you can log right into here without the need to re-register! Just enter your Trials-Forum email address and password, and choose a username on the next page.We hope you enjoy the new forum.http://www.bmx-forum.co.ukTom & Danny.

eskimo Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 I'm not really a fan of the whole idea as i ride both trials and bmx. From time to time i also check out that ridestreet place as well as i have a cruiser. But i prefer staying on here as it's got what i need. I don't really fancy going back and forth.

I don't really fancy going back and forth.Fair enough, I see where you're coming from. One thing to remember though is that Trials Forum is exactly that, a place to discuss trials. It may be convenient for you as both a BMXer and a trials rider to talk about both here, but the majority of members only ride trials and come here to discuss trials, not BMX as well. We've tried to minimise the hassle of switching back and fore by merging the database and allowing for a single login.If you are using Firefox then Id recommend you setup an RSS feed so you can easily view the new topics over at BMX-Forum, without actually having to go there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Nick Riviera Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 personally i would have opted for another subforum in here. just keeps everything nice and central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 personally i would have opted for another subforum in here. just keeps everything nice and central.I prefer having two seperate Forums. This may be a bit racist but shouldn't Trials-Forum be for Trials riders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimo Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 personally i would have opted for another subforum in here. just keeps everything nice and central.That's what i thought. But i think they're trying to create a whole new scene/ forum for new people as well as us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 That's what i thought. But i think they're trying to create a whole new scene/ forum for new people as well as us.Duh?A 10 user forum or how ever many ride BMX properly on here isn't going to be all that fun is it. Muahahaha, i've now about this like, for ever. Not that it makes any difference to anything but i don't care. Trials first, BMX now, the world next?!

Simpson Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 No i think its a good idea... if we started to get BMX topics in NMC and stuff... there enough in there without BMX stuff added to itJust out of interest... why not the same layout? i like the TF layout and i just find the bmx 1 a bit.... blarg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boswell Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Think how many people do BMX compared to trials, I think BMX-forum will become much larger than trials-forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomturd Posted September 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 why not the same layout?The layout is pretty much identical to how TF started out. I'm not a big fan of lots of empty forums. In fact it wasn't that long ago that trials media (sites/pics/vids) was separated up, much to the dislike of many members Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixed Pants™ Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 (edited) Tehe. It's really hard to remember, so hard that i only just remember to do it, it's a good job i saved you from near death! *cough*bye bye warnings *cough*Bloody cough. Anyway, as someone mentioned, it's a bit gay that some trials riders that aren't even half interested are signing up, it's as if they're doing it for the sake of it, i wonder what could be done to sort that? you'see, i'm interested and really want to get a bmx as soon as i have the coinage, maybe christmas, so i think i'm allowed on it Should be good though, lets go spam the other bmx-forum with the link to the tf bmx forum I'm probably willing to risk the warnings in the name of bmx forum Edited September 12, 2007 by Fat Pants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
