TNX sold to Autoguide.com

[11Pro4x]

TNX is now run by Autoguide.com! Thank gobble we have XN which is run by Xterra owners!

 

[civicjoe]

True enough! I can't believe it.
Guess that means when I get home I'll get the razor out. I know some people have already done so prior to this

XN will get busier for sure!

 

[idratherbe]

Is that the site that was down for a bit last week? Think it had anything to do with it? Wonder how much it was worth.

 

[Macland]

I don't think the site being down had anything to do with it. It seems to be just coincidence.

 

[Ripper]

Such horse****! I have no Ill will towards Jason, but this really sucks

 

[11Pro4x]

I agree Jason did awesome, but this new company. I can't say what I want. Business is business but Autoguide forums suck!

 

[Roadwarrior]

*cough*CX*cough*

 

[jmnielsen]

I'm pretty ticked. I like XN anyways, but paid for a supporting membership on TNX not long ago. Hopefully it doesn't go down the crapper, but at least we have XN.

 

[Ripper]

Oh yeah, I agree. I ****ING HATE CX! It is seriously the worst board I have ever been on. As I said in the thread on TNX, I never go on there, way to much of a pain in the ass to navigate. I think I have like 20 posts, if that.

 

[11Pro4x]

What I find funny is the new admin over ther won't answer the tough questions!

 

[jmnielsen]

Yeah, and he says the "fear" will ruin the forum over there. Just answer the d@mn questions!

 

[capt_lou]

Why in the F does it take 20+ seconds to load a page?

 

[11Pro4x]

All I gotta say is we will all be better off over here!

 

[Ripper]

What I find funny is the new admin over ther won't answer the tough questions!

"Nothing to see here, move along!" Marcin, ask him if he will change his name from "Administrator" to "Napoleon" or "Squealer" (Characters from the book Animal Farm)

 

[11Pro4x]

He has got to be thinking "what have I gotten myself into". He is such a tard!

Hey guys try to be nice.. I know Jason aka muzikman is a member here as well.. I know auto forums see's theNewX as a biz.. That's why I started this forum.. I have to make a little money to keep the forum up other than that I've been trying to give as much as I can away to contests and sponsoring things like goneMoab and nXm. This site will remain for the people by the people..

And we thank you for that! There is no disrespect to Jason whatsoever, we are just voicing our concerns with the corporation which took over tnx.

 

[jmnielsen]

Thank goodness for DRB and the XN Admins!

Advertising. Especially Google ads, the ones that don't pertain to the X.

Notice how Dave doesn't allow ads? And how fast things load? And how he answers all of you questions..

Right on..

I know that really stinks for that forum..

 

[RATTFINK]

ahem... And Mr. Fink does what?


Yes, this is quite a shock. I'm sure muzikman has his reasons.

I'll echo DRB's suggestion. Keep this civil.

 

[NMTerras]

XN - keepin it real since 2011...

Too bad about TNX, just another example of why this site was needed...

Fink is the perfect side kick for drb!

Hey now, both Admins here do an AMAZING job. Just cause Dave gives his parts out freeely doesn't mean he's your whore. =P



And who knows what Johann has in secret. lol

i keed i keed

 

[akinc]

I enjoy both sites. But I do find myself spending more time on this one. It is nice to know this one was started right here in my home state. For the owners by the owners is really what it is all about. Thanks for this site...........

 

[gorillamel]

Huh, I cannot believe I actually read every single post in the thread announcing the changeover on TNX. It makes me sad. Currently, I'm gonna take a "wait and see" stance. But, I have a feeling of dread on this one. Alas. Oh well, more reason to love XN more! :-D

 

[06_footy]

I atleast got the new admin to post his screen name to PandaBearlover101. I find it humerous....LOL


Btw I might be on here more often. I seem to like how it's organized over here. But we do need to make a new "other rides" portion. So I can post a build thread of my mustang. Would be nice considering not everyone owns just a xterra.

 

[Macland]

06_footy show us that stang!

Other rides

 

[drbandkgb]

YEah I get major ad's on CX and Im a paying member.. and you get the hover over ads.. TNX will not die.. CX is still the #1 google search so id expect that to help TNX..

Id look to see both sites merge..

 

[Mastagrog]

Glad I migrated

I only seem to browse via mobile to steer clear of all the ads. But I can see everyone's frustration. TNX will still be alive and kicking just like CX, but you just will loose the personal 'know the owners' feel.
Thanks Dave and Fink!

 

[Xtacular]

Notice how Dave doesn't allow ads?

LOLOL my ad blocker is currently blocking 21 items.

Yeah, but tapatalk supports embedded ads in the app.. how long until auto guide figures that out?

I don't get what the big deal is. Autoguide is not what made me leave CX; I left because 95% of the posts had nothing to do with Xterras, and 90% of the Xterra related posts were questions that had already been asked and answered 100 times over. That's not Autoguide's fault; it's just the way of internet forums.

 

[Labbie]

FireFox+AdBlock works well on another AG forum I use.

 

[Muadeeb]

CX has ads?? Firefox+AdBlock+TACO are the bomb.

I do hear you guys. This site is much more community oriented, while CX is more a group of low posters asking the same questions. I think for a couple of days I was posting nothing but links to old posts. It was fun lurking on the 'sale' thread on TNX and only time will tell was AutoGuide does to it.

Once I found about about XN (via pm on CX) I registered here and haven't gone back. I like it here :smiley:

 

[Peck]

Every forum that goes to Autoguide turns into a complete cluster fawk of a website.

Long gone are the days of actual tech knowledge and here are the days of "OMG I spilled a Coke on my carpets. HELP!" threads. Not that TNX wasn't headed that direction anyway, for it was -- one of the reasons I quit that place. Along with few other factors...
