View Full Version : Bimmerfest.com is Condoning Illegal Activity to Shut Us Down
GeneArch posted a new thread* about how to bring the cult,
:cult:
I mean bimmerfest.com ‘s idea of community (the one they can then importune to buy buy buy) together. Amazingly, in that thread they have allowed this post to stay up (even though it solicits illegal activity) by one genius named BumBMW (he must have drool coming out of his mouth as he drives his 3er) in response to sdbrandon’s announcement that we’ve all left:

A lot of folks have left the 6 forum for you know where. Yet the issue still persists.

That is a damn shame. If you guys like just give me the URL of this "place" they went to and I will be glad to ..... well, lets just say that after I am done with them they will be glad to return to our beloved and most communal fest. Don't post the URL here, of course, send me a PM. Thank you.
I thought Jon was averse to litigation. If this moron touches our website Jon and bimmerfest.com and GeneArch will have not only encouraged it, they will have facilitated it. They will come to understand just how much the BMW community shares their :ebay: ideals.
These guys know what they’re doing. They have basically dumped the 6er forum on GeneArch with a bunch of fake 6er posters. Sadly, Gene has decided to move it up a notch. At one point we were ready to take Gene in when he finally got disgusted with the crap. Now he seems to be rolling in it. Gene, we don’t want you any more. You build your community over there your way. it sure is an interesting way to do it. And enjoy the stupid posts back and forth with the 3er owners. You and they deserve each other.
Our site went down once and I wrote Tim330 a polite e-mail. If bimmerfest.com facilitates an attack on our site, the next message won’t be quite so polite, and it will be delivered by process servers in Camarillo, Santa Barbara and Massachusetts. All of this because bimmerfest.com is encouraging – by leaving up – posts on sticky threads requesting information to facilitate illegal activity against what they perceive as a competitor.
These guys are shameless twits. And worse. They’re creeps.

I agree that the guys over at bimmerfest.com are not playing nice. It seems that some posters feel threatened by us. I have seen MANY posts there refering to our new site. I guess they miss us a lot, or they miss the traffic that we used to bring there. I am no longer a member there because the guys in charge deleted my information. But whenever I go to bimmerfest.com to look around, I see that all of my old posts are still there. In the begining, I thought I might miss going there but I really don't miss it at all these days.

I doubt Bimmerfest feels threatened by you, I think they're figuring if you guys aren't going to play nice, neither will they.

thats a nice little thread. :grin:

What is it that we are doing that isn't "nice" to bimmerfest.com ? Not being there to increase their traffic? To help bimmerfest.com get bigger so it can sell out to Internet Brands like MB World did?
One thing we aren't doing is trying to bring their site down or allowing posters to put something up -- and leaving it up all day -- asking for information about us so the poster can take us down.
After being up for 12 hours bimmerfest.com has taken down the slack jaw BumBMW's post. From what I have heard about that twit, he has difficulty figuring out how to insert key and start car. :jackit:
By the way, just to clarify it, what bimmerfest.com was doing was allowing a post to stay up that was proposing to commit a federal crime. So in the "tit for tat" category I don't think we're in the same league with those people. We don't post there and they decide to retaliate with criminal activity. Gee, what a great idea.
Following your link, I see that Jon is pleased with how big his site is and how small we are. We don't care. We aren't in it to separate BMW owners from their money, epsecially by allowing sponsors to come on the site and censor posts they don't like. And when Jon posts that Bear and I must be so proud, I think Jon was just beaming with pride about BumBMW's post soliciting information to commit a federal crime. Let me re-state that - Jon and Tim330 and GeneArch. They must have been so proud and pleased that an esteemed member of their "community" was going to commit a federal crime just for them. What a bunch of jerks.
They've taken down his solicitation to commit a federal crime but it will stay up here. And when they take no action against this wannabe criminal it will simply demonstrate just what they mean by the "BMW Community."
when do i expect to receive an email from them.....lol
:woohoo:

I think its ridiculous you guys can't move on by being the better of the two and being MATURE adults which you are supposed to be and MOVE ON with life. ITS THE INTERNET FOR CHRIST'S SAKE! MALIBU! You of all people, I can't believe! You're supposed to be a sucessful lawyer in California yet youre bickering about some stupid ass website and what it's doing! You're honestly acting like a 12 year old little boy who is pissed off at his mom for not getting him the toy he wants in the store! Grow up all of you people! And I'm 100% sure this post will be deleted by the Mods HERE because they don't like me telling them to grow up! And NO, I'm not taking Bimmerfest's side, don't dare implicate me for doing that, I'm saying, MOVE ON WITH LIFE. :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored:
:violin: :violin: :chophead:
PS- They took down BumBMWs post because THEY DONT WANT TO SCREW AROUND WITH YOU. THEY CAN CARE LESS WHAT THIS SITE DOES.

Nice to see you here, again. I guess you're right. Somebody wants to torpedo our site; I guess I should just let it go and let the guy do it. Must be my fault. Why didn't I see that before?
I think it's time for you to re-assess why you're here. You can post the bimmerfest.com party line here, but we can't post over there. And yet you keep reading and coming back here. (Every user's visits here are tracked -- it's embedded in the software -- so we know you spend a lot more time here than you want to admit.) I wonder why.
Anyway, thanks for explaining to me how a man takes it -- he allows someone to destroy his property and he just ignores it and moves on. A twelve year old boy, however, gets a bit upset about it. I thank you because it was something that I have not yet learned after 62 years on the planet. And you, in your infinite wisdom, were able to explain it to me.
And bimmerfest.com took down the post soliciting illegal activity, not because they are against that sort of thing, but because they didn't want to be inconvenienced by me. I'm glad you're straightening me out.
Please tell me if I missed anything.
By the way, keep posting. I really do like the comic relief.
Oh, good. You're about to reply. I can hardly wait.

I do spend some time here, I admit it. I spend more time over there though. What's your point? I don't get this place though. There are more posts here that piss all over Bimmerfest than there are being helpful to the 6er and BMW community.
And I've read everything here, don't worry. I've read all sides of the story and you're still not understanding that it is Jon's site and he may do whatever he pleases with it, which is the same as this is you guy's site, you may do whatever you want with it to, and if someone doesn't like what you're doing, whether you believe it to be wrong or right, or if they think its wrong or right, do you really care what they think, honestly answer that question. Does it matter to you really if one person or a few people dislike what you're doing with your own site you pay money for?
Think of it this way, do you care what I think about your site? No.
Oh, good. You're about to reply. I can hardly wait.

I don't care what happens at bimmerfest.com except when they allow posts to stay up from cyber hit men who solicit information so that they can kill another site -- in this case mine. For some reason that seems to elude you. For some reason it seems to bother me. As I said before, must be a weakness on my part. Something life's lessons have not yet taught me.
As for your comment that there are more posts here slamming bimmerfest.com than anything else, even you know that's not true. You've pored through every post in detail (based on your time here) and you know that you're just exaggerating.
But keep posting, please. I love this stuff. (As you know, we have no 3er owners here pissing on the 6ers.)

Mal,
Why have a battle of wits with an unarmed person? You are too good for that. Don’t waste your time. Remember, if you hang around brainless people long enough…you could “turn” senseless yourself! Just let these duplicitous people post their hearts out here and over at Bimmerfest.com. Who really cares? Any press is good press. Actually, I have noticed that the more they sling cr*p over there, the more we get quality members signing up here so SHHH…don’t say anything.
We know that we never delete or censor posts here at KOTR…so why would we delete his…especially when it confirms the writer’s weaknesses? It is obvious that Jon and Tim knew that they couldn’t beat us with words, spelling, content and grammar, so they surrendered. They decided that they didn’t want to play with us anymore, and they took their toys and went home by deleting our capability to post there.
I am certain they know that they can post here if they want, and you and I both know how often they are here based on IP address records. I just like to sit back; basking in the glow of the fact that our little “peon” of a website is bothering their multi million dollar, high ranked site spot on the web enough for them to spend quite a bit of time here as “guest” members to see what all the fuss is. Isn’t it glorious???

Woah there Bear. Those are some fightin' words there. :flamethrow:
Anyways, apparently I don't have my head shoved up my ass far enough to talk to the tight asses Bear or Mal, so I'm going to let them believe what they want.
Oh, and P.S.- I usually log in here and leave my browser open so I stay logged in all day most of the time while I'm busy with other things.
