New forum registrations & forum update
Forget that tinsy winsy security breach in some white shed, the forum is under attack! Apparently sad people from an even more sad country found a way to bypass the forum's security measures and try to sell sunglasses or other silly stuff. As this leads to dozens of fraudulent registrations per hour, every new registration now has to be approved manually by yours truly.
Did you register recently, and not get your account activated? Please drop me a line at jeroen at bmwe21 dot net and indicate your chosen username. I'll make sure to activate your account asap! Thanks for your understanding and in the meantime we are working on an update to improve your forum experience!

Hey all,
Today was the time for an update. Not everything went entirely as planned and therefore you will experience minor changes in how things look. Not everything looks the way it did, but I'm working on it to get it back to how everything was, on the outside at least. All posts are still here.
Thanks for your understanding!

Re: New forum registrations & forum update
Seems to work a lot better already, and we got rid of the annoying error messages as well! User registrations and board adjustments are back on track as well.
The upcoming week we'll be doing some final tweaking, let us know if you bump into any issues.

Re: New forum registrations & forum update
The forum was updated recently and everything should be fully functional both on your home pc as well as mobile. However, we are experiencing a spam attack which means hundreds of fake registrations and sometimes it is really difficult to distinguish legitimate registrations. If you registered recently and you did not receive an activation confirmation yet, kind request to either re-register or contact me through jeroen-at-bmwe21.net .

Re: New forum registrations & forum update
Installation of CleanTalk spam protection pretty much killed the spam registrations. If you are experiencing problems registering or logging on let me know through jeroen -at- bmwe21.net
