How does the darkside spread? was created by a Guest

Posted 13 years 4 weeks ago #30131
I see cars on a daily basis here that are obviously form the darkside. Today for example I saw an F with a nice shiny SS backbox and massive pipes (not as big as mine) and other bling AND a TF with aftermarket exhaust and lexus lights and side intake pods.

Butnone of them are on here, or on org. I reckon there are several hundred MGF/TFs in the city, some of them I know from the local MG club and the odd rare occasion there is an orger.

How do the "modders" get the darkside when they are not members of any of the forums (MGF reg/.org/tbar etc)

Is it just the force?

I think a lot of them are people who just visit the forums to get ideas, but don't necessarily want to join up! Good luck to them anyway, I say :yesnod:

I think they just look in, but dont join, i have handed out loads of cards and the only one i know that has joined is Helen & Nigel (Mr & Mrs Spark) We have about 50 MGFs and TFs in our Epsom Area Club and although i have been plugging the T Bar many times we still only have a few that have joined. Some are into the Darkside in a big way, have looked in from time to time but not joined.

i think we have to push the forum at every oppitunity :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Of course I am. Used to hand out cards for org that I made, but then I got into trouble for not using "official" ones....which didn't even exist for another 18 months afterwards :-? So I gave up...

Search for a thread named Downloads. The cards pdf is in it, on page 6.

I would copy and paste the file for you but my paste facility has disappeared... again!

Thanks for the thoughts, but it's not that simple. :nonod: For some reason the paste facility actually disappears.ie you cannot paste whatever you try. At the moment the only way to recover it is to close down and restart the computer.
I had this problem on my previous laptop, and thought it would be gone on my new one. WRONG! If I use Office I have to call up the full clipboard to be able to paste, rather than the right click option. :-? :-?

Simon is looking into it. :broon:

It seems to happen most often when I try to copy a photo from Photobucket or copy a video from Youtube.
And it is driving me NUTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
