Place your info in your signature please.
 
Ok, so some years ago there was a thread started by a member to have new members and even present ones put in their X's information in the signatures or profiles. Such as year, type, Options/Packages, and location. I have been trying to find this thread all day but couldn't.

So for all those that don't have their information noted, could you please do so. It helps all of us out here to get information out ASAP instead of asking, " If you can share with us the year, type of motor, and mileage with us, we can help you further." It makes life so much easier when we can look at your signature to see you have a 2001 4.4i with Sport and you have a question about doing work on the motor.

It just seemed like in the past 4 days it's almost like pulling teeth to find out which person has what X. If someone can find that original post, then we can lump this one into that one.

Also, if you are comfortable with putting in a location besides "USA, North America, X5World..." please do so. It's not like a member is going to stalk you. I just know with me, I'd like to meet some of the members on here, so if I am in their neck of the woods, I can shoot a PM to meet and look and drool over each others tastefully done mods or get blinded by some siccc AE's!!!

Maybe make it a sticky or requirement??? I dunno, I just hate having to waste bandwidth and space going back and forth over something that can be solved in 30 seconds.

Just my $.02.

I think this is a great idea.

X2, i'll adjust my profile today.

Ditto

Excellent suggestion. This always catches me too. Especially people that post a help thread, with no info of location, or car model.

mgbmwx5 07-09-2012 09:48 AM

It makes sense!

CTSportX5 07-09-2012 10:16 AM

The guy has a point. Do it people..

There has been at least a dozen times in the past few months I have had to post replies to the effect of "what engine/trans/audio system etc", only to get NO reply for WEEKS, even when the thead was "URGENT" in the title!!! I'm getting tired of pulling teeth trying to help others. URGENT my a$$.
