Niko

Thanks for your post, but even though the sucess of AFF is due to the Australian Members, I dont want to see a us V Them scenario

With 2500 members AFF is growing strongly every day and with so much more to come based around an Australian Community

Lamington? I think there must have been a mistake... :hihi:

Did somebody say steak?

Lamington's? Steak? I'm just happy to have beer that tastes better than rat urine!

Congrats AFF, to you current and future success

Agreed, and it’s only going to get better.

It can only get better from here!

MickyB · 01-03-2005, 06:07 PM

As Monty Python said, US beer is like having sex in a canoe: f**king close to water. The forums are pretty much the same.

EFFalcon · 01-03-2005, 06:07 PM

mmm steak..

rodderz · 01-03-2005, 06:10 PM

It's been a quick and successful rise in membership, well done to all

Interestingly on Sunday at the FPV while Chucky was singing the bells of ff.com.au, Mark Oastler seemed to know a fair bit of what goes on here.... not sure if he's signed up or just a guest

Those who havent signed up as yet can view the entire forums and will benefit even more!

CAMS290 · 01-03-2005, 06:30 PM

Yes a very well run site with a great Admin and Mod team, and no Gestapo's to be seen !
Only Laminge, who may sit on you if you upset him.lol

There's only so many forums I can read in a day and all the content that I used to read on FF is here + a few more nice bonuses.

Kudos to the moderators for such a seamless transition.

clampy · 01-03-2005, 08:05 PM

thing is im only here now coz i went overboard on FF and work banned it(and im a domain admin!!!!)..

luckily with ff.com.au being a completely different domain, it works perfectly...

/turns back on restraint switch

Sweet! So we've got lamingtons, steaks and deep fried icecream... Hang on?!? Deep fried icecream?!? :hihi:

Aren't we forgetting something?

: What are we going to drink to go with these specially-selected, Australian Ford Forums approved, foods?

champsky · 01-03-2005, 09:27 PM

You'd prefer to drink our Yarra water would you bro? :hihi:

What the frog is fruju?

So, lamingtons, steaks, deep fried icecream, vanilla slice (aka snotblock) & fruju...

Oh, I know what we're forgetting, food and drink for our somewhat deluded Holden fan friends... I know what would be perfect for them...

The one, the only...

4: combined with adelaide water, it will surely convert them from the dark side quick smart, hahaha :hihi:

Fruit Juice? I know it's a Fruit Ice Iceblock here in NZ.
I prefer it here as well. It's nicer than FF was, purely because the mods are nicer, but has become a more specific forum. Also, all the Forum Sponsors make sense. Why have a lawyer who is suing FoMoCo when you're a Ford Enthusiast?

Ahh, my mother used to (and in fact, still does) say that you learn something new every day - although in my case I think I'm now just re-learning stuff I had forgotten, such as how to eat ice cream without making a mess of it :hihi:

I didn't know it was a Fruit Ice Iceblock in NZ, sounds good to me.

Yes, I much prefer it here myself, I think it's a result of a whole lot of things that make this place exactly the way it is, and make it stand out as a forum we keep coming back to and contributing to. Some of the biggest (in my opinion) would be the lack of intrusive advertising (I don't mind the sponsors advertisments at the top of the pages, at least they belong, not like some forums that have third-party advertisments and end up with ads for viagra or Holdens), the excellent people we have here, and the way the admins actually listen to our ideas and input and are willing to change things.

While there are other Ford Forums, FordForums.com.au is where I think most of us feel welcome. And that is a credit to all involved.

well, this is completely off topic and going nowhere fast...even for a Bar thread
