Ahaha it always provides extra motivation! Hence why I went out and just took photos of the 911 in it's current state, solely to provide myself with as much motivation as possible

[Yezzz]

Decided to post a thread on the builds board aswell, giving myself the ilusion it will provide extra motivation :')

[SebastienPeek]

Well then, me from home right now. I did not expect it to be that simple of a solution.
I guess I'll get to annoy you lot over the weekends too now

Aha amazing, glad that worked! It's fucking weird though, the damn thing looks like you're not logged in but then it's like, you are logged in if you just do a hard refresh.

I'm pumped to have more annoyance on the forums, I'm trying to make them great again.

[Yezzz]

Ah interesting, I believe it’s a caching issue and it occasionally does the same to me.

Basically, if you do a hard refresh afterwards or navigate to another page and refresh, it should make you view the forum logged in again…

Huh, I wonder why...

If you login, does it just kick you back to the login screen again?

After I log in I get the "Thank you for logging in, you are being redirected" screen. After that I get pinged back to the main board but not logged in.
Weirdly, it is happening on my pc at home but also on my phone which I dont have connected to wifi, so two sepperate internet situations.
Also, if I recall correctly, I even tried two browsers on my PC. Google chrome (which I also use at work) and Microsoft Edge. Similar results.

So thats a thing..

I think a big reason we dont get the forum feel on socials is that its to generalized.
Ofcourse you have your groups and you have your hashtags, but when you sign up for a forum you get part of a closed group of people that share an intrest.
Now I cant write for shit and always forget to make photos of everything (not that its that impressive) but I sure do like to read other peoples builds

Agree, without the hashtags and all that people have become accustomed too, it's quite difficult to have that on here unfortunately.

I do think that the forums will, at some point, make a comeback as technical information is still available here. People just aren't looking for it right now, or they'll ask on Instagram or in YouTube builds.
YouTube builds have definitely come a long way though, take Mike's 308 build, the technicalities he's willing to dive into is great, but I think that comes from forum days.

That's what I am talking about! The technical elements of the forums is what I miss.
Cool, we can get 10 second videos of welding porn and YouTube is finally being used as a platform to show builds off, but I genuinely miss well written threads

I miss overall forum activity in general. Social media really has ruined that.

I mean, sure, its a great platform to show off your car and progress, but nobody is gonna type a full essay on how to tighten your wheelbolts on facebook.
