Split Up Bavaria and Stuttgart Threads

Re: Split Up Bavaria and Stuttgart Threads

What does my number of posts have to do with seeing something that doesn't seem right?

Mixing the Audi/BMW threads is probably the thing that stands out most to me, since those drivers are the ones on forums looking for advice/help. If you want people to frequent the forum, you have to make it as un-complicated as possible... and sifting though two different makes in the same thread is a deal breaker, especially when you own a BMW and most of the guys on here are VW/Audi owners.

1. We all have between 600ish and 10,000ish posts, you have 4, it bothers none of us, there isnt the traffic and the DIY's to facilitate all of this.

2. Audi has fortitude, bmw has bimmerforums. Thats where all their stuff is. If you actually came out to some of the meets, got to know some people then brought up the idea, it might be a different story, but not one of us who has been on here for years has a problem with navigating.

Re: Split Up Bavaria and Stuttgart Threads

You have a total of 4 posts and the categories just dont work for you?

In all seriousness... how many other Benz or Porsche threads are there? Two? Infected's build and Some of Kor's stuff? Not sure thats enough to warrant seperate categories...

Re: Split Up Bavaria and Stuttgart Threads

If anything, BMW and Audi should be split. It seems like every BMW thread gets a ton of Audi guys in it making unsolicited comments. The enthusiasts that drive these particular brands just don't mesh very well.

Personally, I dont think its that complicated. Usually the thread title states whether its Audi related or BMW related, and once you use the forums enough, you know who drives/talks about what. If you're not interested, just skip over it.

Re: Split Up Bavaria and Stuttgart Threads

Not sure if there is enough activity to have a sub section as the Porsche Benz is relatively quiet. The Audi BMW is busier but I am not sure it requires further sectioning at this point.

I like the idea of grouping threads by city/country where the cars are made, however, Bavaria and Stuttgart need to be split into two sub-catagories; Audi and BMW; Benz and Porsche, respectively.
It just doesn't work well to have those brands mixed in the same thread.
