Who's leaving the MLR?
 

Just wanted to have a quick check of people that are going to leave the MLR because of their "smart" paid members policy. Spoke to Claude about it and had a good laugh about it last week. I mean, don't get me wrong, I think the MLR forum is very good (honestly, yes, really honestly) but just run by, let's say, people that are not with the latest marketing theories (damn, that was nice of me!! Bad words didn't even cross my mind....must be the lack of drugs, .... or the Prozac... :D)
Anyway, who's not gonna pay? I think Claude is one...

Whats this then?? They want money??? Are you serious? I deleted the MLR link from my favourites a long time ago...so I have no idea what's happening there!

Quite surprised you doidn't use any more "descriptive" terms as your usual self MichaelK!!:eek: :D Whats going on? Feeling sick today....:lol:

Excuse please my ignorance but, what is the MLR?

Dino, when you're online, sign into Messenger, konnayarou!!

Yes, actually I'm feeling a little ill.... I have to take some aspirin.

Evo_dan, you don't have to know the MLR, it's a UK Lancer club that will be history very soon. They still have a forum that is/was quite good, but starting from March only paid members are allowed to post. So by all reasonably terms the club will not attract many more members. But hey, it's good for forums like this one as there will be quite a few people leaving and looking for a new home!

Michael,
Haven't paid for my memebrship so don't see how I can continue posting :)
Do you know of anywhere that has a free lancer forum?

Andy

well, this one is free to my knowledge :D And the idea of www.thereallancerregister.com isn't dead yet either, just not enough time.... work is absolutely killing me at the mo...

MLR
 

Hi MichaelK, Okitenik and everyone else (formerly) from the MLR,

It's Hesperus (also from the MLR) here. This is my first visit to this board... looks good so far!

Actually, they've decided NOT to charge for non-member postings for now, until a later date when a final decision is made on how to handle this controversial topic.

I'm from S.E. Asia as you probably know, so I haven't paid-up my membership, yet I've still been able to post.

Okitenik, just wondering-- why did you delete the MLR link? I never got the impression you were upset by what was going on at the site?

Anyway, glad to be here as well!

Cheers!

Yep, this place is getting better and better cause there's quite a few people here who now about the American way of tuning. Let's face it, they make the strongest engines, obviously I'm not talking about driveability here....
On suspension, etc. ... we Europeans RULE!!! :headbng2:

Only joking...

Yep! :D :headbng2:

They have different suspension requirements, but if they came to the roads we have here in the South of France with an American setup, it would not be adapted, for sure...

As far as the MLR is concerned, it's dead already! I log in there like once or twice a day, and they have like 1 or 2 new posts in 5 sections...

At least give the correct facts! Yes, the MLR is a little slow at the moment with not so many postings as there have been. However, today (Sunday) there have been 68 posts to 8.23pm! And it really is very quiet at the moment.

The MLR is still the best source of technical advice on Evo matters and with exciting developments coming in the next month, should remain at the forefront. However, this is no reflection on this forum, because they cater for different people and, in general, different types of post. There is room for both and I am in no doubt both will continue to thive.

I didnt mean the whole forums, just 5 sections, like I said. It might be a little more than 1 or 2. Just wanted to get the idea across if you know what I mean. :)

hesperus...the reason I deleated it is because I found this one so much better. The MLR is ok for techincal stuff but there are very few posts and I never liked the program they have based their forum on. I find it much more fun here and much easier to use. Plus loads of people have moved here so I really don't see the point!
