You know you’re addicted to Team-BHP when:

1. You refresh your gmail inbox 3 times a day when your application process is under review.
2. You jump with excitement when you finally receive the ‘membership approved’ email.
3. Open your browser, login, search for this thread and this is the first time you’ve ever posted on TBHP.
4. You have Team-BHP set as your homepage on the browser.
5. Have multiple tabs opened for ‘reading later’
6. All of your information ever has come from here.

P.S. Thank you so much for accepting my registration. I’m so glad and grateful to be part of such a respected community.

You know you’re addicted to Team-BHP when you wait for the weekend for stamping your car with the TBhp sticker and that makes your day

Dear dr_petrolhead cant agree with you more. We both were sailing in the same boat.

You have penned down the exact experience which I had to go through last week before my registration was accepted.

One more point which i would add is
1. You open Team BHP homepage on your Laptop first thing in the morning before opening your Official Mailbox to check work emails

When your bank OTP is 911360 and it makes you smile, because you think of these two icons

You know you’re addicted to Team-BHP when:
1) When you daily see the Got-Bhp? Sticker and feel good from inside.
2) When you look at your Team-Bhp Keyring and try to keep it as clean as possible every day.
3) When you get discount at certain places as being a Bhpian (feels good yay)

4) When you are eagerly waiting for reply to your posts and keep on checking the associated email for new alerts on the same (keep on refreshing)

1) When your wife considers 'Team-Bhp.com' as her "Sautan"

2) When your Gboard or keyboard recommends Team-Bhp.com whenever you open search window.

Hi! PGA now that's such a nice placement for the team-bhp sticker & Venky that is an Epic! work done on the phone

When you have internalized the team-bhp's rule of "maximum 2 smileys per post" that you follow it everywhere- email, Sms, Whatsapp, anywhere...

For me, the moment I hit 2 smileys, the panic monkey in my mind says stop else you invite the moderator action!

It was indeed a great forum to interact. I was a regular user of The Team BHP forum before my membership got approved. I just prefer to hung on this forum for most of the time rather to hung on to all unnecessary stuff around our life. Travelogue threads are just stress relievers. Technicalities of machines are so nicely penned, even guidance to your fellow friends will bring you a round of applause.

With Regards

I know I'm addicted to TeamBhp. But it hit me real hard when my office had a network breakdown and when my IT support guys came over. The issue was my ERP was running fine across all the systems but only my ground floor had internet. How did I find second floor didn't have internet connectivity ? Browser wouldn't load the home page (in my personal browser), ie Teambhp forums page

.

Half a day and multiple attempts later, IT support finally resolved the issue, the guy came over to check my computer, opens the browser and viola forum page in it's full glory. Not Google, not the Microsoft page. Well

You realize that you are addicted to Team-BHP when

Your phone has a screen-on time of more than 5 hours everyday even though you are not part of any social media and also you don't even use WhatsApp .
You buy a gaming laptop and end up browsing Team-BHP on your laptop instead of gaming as you have to choose either one of them.
When you meet a person who is very much interested in automobiles like you, the first thing you ask him is whether he is a member in Team-BHP instead of his phone number.

True that!! unfortunately do not see the mobile version of TBHP responding , any help on how to get it back on track?
