> How’s it going guys? Most of you don’t know me, but my real name is Josh and I run [NYSpeed.com](http://NYSpeed.com) as well as several other integrated & networked automotive forums. I have a very pro-automotive stance on forum content and as much as possible, a laissez-faire stance on moderation.

> Vlad & I made an agreement a few months ago and ownership of the forum was transferred. In the past few months we’ve been working on several things to upgrade the forum. I’m introducing myself now because we’re getting close to some front-end changes on Shift that I’m sure you’ll notice. We already moved the site to a dedicated server a few months ago, fixed Tapatalk and soon we’ll be upgrading to vB4. Plugins and features will also get upgraded.
> 
> Eventually Shift will be added to our forum network. What this means is that you’ll gradually see added forums which will allow interaction beyond Shift itself. For example, a ‘Builds’ forum where threads about project vehicles can be shared with everyone on the larger network. You don’t have to post your project in that forum and you can always post them in the same place you do now. But it will get much more exposure if you do utilize it. Most of the forum structure will remain the same from what it is now.

> The moderators here have already been briefed on what’s to come and I know a few of you are already members on NYSpeed so you’ll know what to expect. We’re looking forward to 2014 and some expended content and functionality on Shift! :tbu

Tapatalk is still fucked, says “This forum is currently not available, please try again later” when signing in.
