Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Cleaned and ready to go again, thanks to everyone who is reporting spammers as they pop up.

    If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

                            Effectively, yes.
                            Recently there have been a lots of things like "Nice vid. Thanks for the share". They have a Nick which is often random. They then mostly have a link in their signature which goes to come questionable site, or via a link parser site (such as tiny.url). And then the other dead give away is, they'll have 8 posts in 20 minutes in 8 different threads which are all identical.
