No it's a fair point and one I didn't consider, but if they paid the club and not you, it's the club's problem. If it was you who brought the adverts on board and you want advertising on here, it may be worth speaking to the advertisers. I'm assuming you'll kill or amend the Google stuff so that you get the income and not the club? You've got so much to remember, I'm just trying to be an online aide memoire. Keep up the good work. |

Pfft. I was enjoying the fight. All the best with the "new" site. I'm sure all the useful info will remain here, & the club's own forum can be used for announcing the next "champagne run", etc. PS Can someone remind me what the "2p Beemers" comment was exactly? We're going to have some fun with that over at the E30Zone... nothing malicious, just something for Gaydon. |

I will remove the index.asp page with the adverts when I return home.
I kept it there as I (possibly incorrectly) felt that the advertisers paid for exposure which they were not otherwise getting. |

That would *probably* cover the database I'd think but if they want to make an issue of it, the logo is probably a bit too similar. Basically, could a reasonable man stumbling on here reasonably think that he was on the BMW Car Club forum? "BMW-Board / [BMW CC Forums] " might be better altered. The commercial adverts on the first page should probably go as well unless they paid you and not the club or you've been in touch with them. It looks very very similar to the old first page. You also have a potential issue with the advertisers here who may want to keep their association with the club and not be seen to support the splinter group. These are just suggestions, not criticisms. |

Yes you can - we shall onle censor offensive stuff, etc. This forum is for BMW owners/lovers who want to discuss BMWs and BMW any related stuff.
In the coming days we shall also set up an adverts forum as we have no financial mandate. edit: the big thread was pulled as it contained a number of posts by someone which I would like to keep safe. Edited by kbannon |

Good job Killian and the team. Good to see Howard Walker back as well. I know you've been very busy but don't give the club any ammunition. Be very sure that you are happy that you know who owns the database and it might be wise to remove any mention of the car club in the forum listings. "Home of the former BMW Car Club Forum" might be better than "Former home of the BMW Car Club Forum". A disclaimer saying that this site has absolutely no affiliation or association with BMW Car Club GB etc. might also be wise. Unfortunately in corporate legal matters, it is rarely the side with right on its side who wins. It's usually the side with most money.
