    What happened to all the members???

    As of right now, just over 1400 member belong to this forum. Where did all the members from m3forums go to? I know a lot of those were inactive members but we had a lot more activity there. I’m super thankful for those who got this place going to I can’t help but wonder maybe they’re not aware this exist.

      Wouldn’t allow me to register using safari on mobile so I gave up and randomly tried again a month or so later from my laptop. Maybe others are having trouble registering too

        About once a week I search tapatalk for nam3forum and e46 fanatics pops up. I know many users were on Tapatalk so they may have transitioned to other platforms on the mobile app.

          Taptalk is absolutely awful. Mobile, browser, it all sucks. This website is the best on my phone. I remember this site having some registration issues but I think those have been resolved. Not everything needs and App but I think this website should get it's own if they decide to go that route. I stopped using e46fanatics simply because of Taptalk.

            Not really on topic, but I have been a bit dormant over the last month or so because I no longer get notifications from posts/threads I subscribe to on mobile browser since the last outage (I know Liam is looking into this), and due to more limited time can't browse all threads all the time to keep up to date on everything. Personally, I thought Tapatalk was awesome, but that is a topic for a different thread.

              I'm here. I followed the very long thread on E46 fanatics. It'll take time to build this community up to its former glory.

                Bingo.

                  I think a name closer to the old forum would have been an easier transition. Maybe something like "M3forum2.0.com.

                  It would have made it easier for people Googling the old forum and seeing the new one.

                    You mean something that doesn’t look like ‘name forum’? Yeah probably a good idea. I guess the founders were more focused on getting it up and running

                      Any other way to get push notifications to your phone other than an email every time something happens? Thats the main reason I like using Tapatalk.

                          The phone app should be up and running soon. At some point in the future we’ll become M3forum.us— though that’s a lower priority than getting notifications working properly again.

                            OT but somewhat related... has E46Fanatics always been owned by Vertical Scope aka the cartel of internet forums?

                            Also interestingly enough the M3F thread over there is locked: https://www.e46fanatics.com/threads/...#post-18785577

                            It looks like Vertical Scope just migrated E46F over to XenForo too.
