I think it's fair to say that X5World is going to get plenty of new members as a result of this article, so who really cares about the few stragglers over at the other board.

As a recent member, I've noticed there is some friction between this board and the other one. Is there a thread that I can read which explains the details of this?

It has been years since I read a BMW board. I had a Z3 back in 1997-1998, and I used to read & post on a message board back then that was for Z3s. I noticed recently that the Z3 board from way back then was now apart of the archives on that other board. I know for sure it wasn't called that back then, but I found some of my posts in their archives. It's amazing that they still saved posts from 1998.

That said, the format on this board is so much better. They are still using the same interface from 10 years ago.

I tend to agree with you on this point. I'm sure the powers that be at RF know all about what's going in here without anyone forcing it on them. But if you are interested in some of the ancient history, see some of PersonaNonGrata's past summaries in the weekly FreakyFriday posts in the lounge.

Attached is a pdf version of the article, in case anyone wants it in that format.

Besides the "time outs", TOS'd deals, jr high lectures by those admins,
etc.,...

It is interesting to me is the reluctance or resistance on the part of a few v.good posters still hanging on the RToadBored, whom have not wandered over here to The X Board.
