i noticed that werkz is a "sponser". am i missing something?

Haha, we also have a UB banner on the bottom of every page loaded in the werkz forum. I had a nice long talk with Noodles, and we discussed it being the information, not the money, so we went through with a link exchange. We're already gotten a few members out of this deal and quite a few hits (and most of our members are also members there anyway, so it's not changing much). It's helping us more than it's helping them, but sshhh.

haha, it's only for a short while though.

Edit: and they're not a "sponsor", it's just a link swap.

It's now rotating with jlevisw's at the bottom of the pages.

I asked Paul Wager (owner of bimmerwerkz) how much it'd cost to buy bimmerwerkz and he replied with "You'd have to offer in the $xx,xxx range otherwise I am happy to hold on to it."

Whatever, bs.

Plz, what would we do with it, take all their tech threads? Its not worth five figures, just for that

**komodo** · 09-08-2005, 08:46 AM

**voca** · 10-02-2005, 12:23 PM

He has 45 posts on his own forum.

He's in it for the money alone, and no one is denying that.

Hah, I don't think I'd ever sell UB. This place IS me.

jlevi has always been kinda bitter towards us for some reason. I've gotten a few emails about him flaming for his car not being high enough up on rate-my-car... I'm thinking it's cause we hurt the activity of the forum he sponsors.

**xsperf** · 10-02-2005, 11:51 PM

yea but he sponsers like all the forums, like bimmerforums and a few others, right?
