Very soon we shall be moving to the new site.
Chet has really outdone himself this time, theres loads of great new features, virtual garage, progress reports and games. Yes an arcade section with games.
Chets been slogging it out getting it ready and I am helping to finish off the articles etc just now.
So hopefully next week we shall all be on the new site.
You WILL have to re-register. Why? Well on this site we have a lot of members who just don't post or are spammers. By making people re-register we get rid of the spammers and it gives you the chance to chose a new name.
Anyway you will be updated so keep watching! |

Ok, heres a few notes regarding the new site
------------------------------
Current Subscribers
If you are a current subscriber you will then have to PM me stating your old username(if different from the one you signed up with) and your old email address. I will then verify your details and add you to the subscribers group manually. Your subscription will still end on the original expiry date. Due to paypal not allowing me to view subscription creations before 01/01/2006 anyone who has subscribed before then well have their subscriptions end 31/12/2006.
New Subscribers
Those who wish to take out a subscription on the new site can do so by following the paid subscription link in their profile. Two subscription levels are available. 1. The regular £10 yearly subscription. 2. For £15 You get 1 years access, a retro-renault sticker and a membership card. Subscription no. 2 is not yet available due to a delay in the card printing.
------------------------------
Project Reports
As this is a new site members will need to re-input the project reports that they have on the old site. The new site has a dedicated reports engine and instructions on how to start and update reports can be found in the How-To in the newbies area.
------------------------------
Archive
The original forum and posts will be archived and available for browsing and searching. We may remove the posts from areas such as eBay links and the For Sale section but this hasn't been discussed.
------------------------------
Tech Articles
The Tech Articles have been transferred to the new site. We may be taking submissions from members for new articles, we will keep you updated on this.
------------------------------
Scans Database
The Scans Database has been transferred to the new site. A submissions forum will be available for those who have scans to share.
------------------------------
Bugs
In any new website there is bound to be a few niggly bugs and Retro-Renault is no exception. A bugs thread will be started and we ask that all bugs be posted in there so we can keep on top of them all
------------------------------
Other Features
Certain other features currently in use will be dropped when moving to the new site. These include things like the points system which was never fully utilised anyway. If you have any questions about what features will be available you can ask in this thread.
------------------------------
Myself, Chris, Neal and everyone else involved in the move thank you for your patience. |
