All,
Just observing many threads about the closure of the Edition 38 forum. Ed38 is not the first to go nor will it be the last but it obviously was a prominent one that would draw attention.
This post serves as just a gentle reminder that while we can’t stop change or evolution of platforms Autostadt will retain our own forum along side our other channels. We self fund the forum so while that can have its limitations we are not dependent on someone else to make a decision in its future unlike some others.
Some people just don’t like or maybe even feel uncomfortable using social media platforms so they still need to be served too and also the historical knowledge gathered on the forum is also a useful resource.
Clearly while many social media platforms are easier and quicker to interact with they are far from perfect with poor support for key motoring aspects like build threads and at times search functionality.
And yes we know that the likes of changes at Photobucket had huge impacts also on forums but you know what just get over it. Like other challenges, it’s in the past. Move on.
So the Autostadt team will do our bit but we are asking you to also help and do your bit so when deciding to post/share something please keep in mind all the channels and the fact that your friends and buddies may not all be on FB! So even if it may mean posting on FB and Forum then do it as the friend on the forum may be very grateful for the info.
Similarly, if you are a forum user then please post! Lead the way! It may help and encourage people to also contribute.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
check out our various channels.
Get involved!
