Interesting to see the old forum preserved how it was back in 02.  Almost 500 members when it moved.

I remember it!  That was what?  Four forums ago?  I just can't remember what my old username used to be.

It would be 5 actually. I created two public forums.  One on Forumco and another on this other free service.

Is Forumco even still alive?  I remember we moved because they kept going down!  I think that was when we lost most people.  I was checking the member list on this one, and there's only 40 members.  Out of those, only 23 have posted before.  People need to speak up!

Forumco is still around.  The problem for me was that every day they would change their ads.  One day they'd have pop-up's then the next day they'd have banners, then the next day they'd have pop-unders.  Then the banners would be at the top, then bottom, them top and bottom.  It was stupid.

I remember that forum, doesn't seem too long ago.  I'm #2 on the memberlist, that has to be good for something :lol:

I think 4Bangers United is doing good to have as many members make each move as it did.  I think it can be a lot bigger if every member pushed it on other forums, I mean how many other 4banger specific forums can there be out there?

I remeber the than one also. Does any body remeber a guy from the midwest that did a Balanced & blueprinted 2.5 and was pulling 220 Horsepower out of it? I can't remeber his callsign. and I may be off little on the Horse power. It was right about time I bought my Yamaha Banshee Duner ANd left the Jeep world for few years. But i am back and have found the love of the jeep agian.
