MIGWeb Announcement

[MikeWarner]

It's now been 14 years since I started up MIGWeb and since then my personal circumstances have changed meaning I no longer have the time required to fully support the site in the way that I used to. In addition, the running of the site has been a burden to the club staff, making the running of the club more difficult for all involved. As a result of lengthy discussions between all MIGClub admin staff and a 3rd party, we now have the pleasure of introducing you to Steve who has now taken ownership of the website.

The club will continue to operate in the same way as it currently does - Steve will not form a part of the club, but will be responsible for the day to day running of the website and will look after software/hardware issues and upgrades.

What does this all mean? Essentially it is business as usual. Steve will be online in a moment to introduce himself and to give you a bit more info about himself. I hope you all join me in welcoming Steve to MIGWeb.

Mike

Welcome Steve.

Not Steve! I presume? lmao

*edit. "Owership" and "business" Will this mean changes to the site to make profit? ie even more advertising / facebook links?

[Sharon SR]

Welcome Steve.

Hello everyone,

I am the Steve that Mike mentioned above. I am glad everyone has a positive outlook on things. I am happy to be apart of the community and I look forward to help making it prosper and grow. As for changes to the site, I do not look to make many, if any changes to the site at all. I want to have it run as smoothly as it has been running before me coming onto the site.

Thanks!

Whats your background then Steve?
What made you want to buy migweb?

I was expecting it to go to someone like internet brands TBH, are you planning on whacking up a lick of paint, dusting off a few cobwebs and then selling on for a tidy profit? I reckon it could work

[Nemesis]

Welcome Steve. I'm sure people will be wanting to know more in good time, ie what you drive, what your history with Vauxhalls are etc...!

[Admin_Steve]

Haha...you caught me Gary, my mistake :S

[Kev_G]

Haha...you caught me Gary, my mistake :S

As Nemesis said and can we have some decent smiles as the current batch are ****e lmao

[Admin_Steve]

A little bit of a background?
Well I have worked on and owned several vB forums for the last 7 years and like everything, there is always something you can learn. But I hope with what I do know, I will help the site grow a little more.
As for what made me want to purchase?
Forums are a business for me, and I have always been sort of a petrolhead and always had an interest in Vauxhalls. Always going on forums let me into what I do and led me here. If I did buy one, I would want a Vauxhall VXR8 Bathurst. I currently own an Evo with previously owning VWs

If I did buy one, I would want a Vauxhall VXR8 Bathurst.

Ah a very good taste in cars. Good man.

[Tathan]

Sounds like an enthusiast.

Hi Steve. <tips imaginary hat in a respectful manner>

[Dom]

So you're the Git who outbid me on Ebay for MIG !!!

If only I'd put £21 on instead of £20 I'd have won it !!

Welcome to MIG by the way - where abouts are you based ?

[RobJenko]

welcome to Mig Steve.

[Admin_Steve]

Thanks again for the welcome. It is very much appreciated

And Dom, I am from Kent. Sorry...that £1 made all the difference my friend

[Nobbie]

Cool, hopefully we'll be able to deal with things a lot quicker, and sort out dead links, etc.

Welcome
