New Private Members Lounge

Recommended Posts

Today we have launched a new area of the Car Dealer Forum. The Private Members Lounge is for advanced members to openly discuss topics. 

It is for dealers only and will not be searchable by Google - an area where you can speak openly.

http://cardealermagazine.co.uk/forum/forum/10-private-advanced-members-lounge/

I don't want it to take over completely from this main forum - as I wanted to create a forum that was open for everyone, however I realise that some members require the space to chat freely, an area where customers won't find them, and this area will be it.

To gain access you must:

1. Have posted more than 25 posts in the open forums

2. Be a genuine dealer. We will background check all applicants and at a bare minimum a copy of your trade insurance must be supplied to forumteam@blackballmedia.co.uk

3. Once approved we will give you access to the Private Members Lounge

This will be carefully monitored and members will be removed for breaking the privacy of this forum. As usual no blatant advertising will be allowed, and also you need to play nicely in there - no bullying!

If you were already a member of our Buy & Sell Trade Cars section you will have automatically been upgraded.

We hope you find this new area useful and we look forward to seeing you in there.

Great idea as long as everything doesn't move in there and make existing forum obsolete.

Hi all - forum through a bit of a fit (that'll teach us for tinkering). If you're a  member of the approved Buy and Sell Trade cars area you'll now have access to the private lounge.

If you're not you'll need to see the guidelines for access to that area - i.e. more than 25 posts here, and send a copy of your trade insurance to forumteam@blackballmedia.co.uk

Don't we already have a 'trade only forum' with Twitter Car Dealers? 

It has been going for almost 4 years and now has 600+ members and everything is private, dealers have to be approved personally and you will find years of relevant MotorTrade news, debates and comments. Run by car dealers FOR car Dealers , FREE and easy to use.
