I’ve been saying this. Cutting off their nose to spite their face. Maybe some advertisers will bail. Either way, IDGAFF.

It has been proven repeatedly over time there is no behavior by members that will ever impact that place. They will outlast all of us.

Roberta Flack was awesome, hard to improve on whatever she did. I think the radio version is better than the original, so props to the Fugees. The LP version has too much of the junk added to it, which takes away from the beauty of the women singing, again, IMO.

I am still a regular customer of several of the vendors that advertise on the site, Willcox, Summit Racing, etc. To stop buying stuff from them because the CF moderators are acting like assholes would be for ME to cut off my nose to spite my face. I'm not going to do that. So unless the advertisers lose revenue (which they won't from me), they won't bitch about the behavior, and nothing will change.

CF doesn't give a crap if they ban a handful of the prolific posters, which are mostly gathered in the OT & PRC sub forums. Most of those use the site as a form of entertainment.

A good bet that very few of them purchase anything from the vendors anyhow. The money is in the silent majority of members who rarely post if ever, and view for the info provided in the gen forums and other specific subject areas.

For myself, IDGAS, sometimes there is some hilarious stuff going on that a chuckle or two can be had......

Both forums for me are like having a bunch of buddies come over and hang out and bust on each other. The people that show up and are asses are just the friends that my buddies dragged with them. I don't have to like them.

Exactly! They don't give two shits about the people banned today or their post counts. It calculates out to less than one quarter of one percent of all daily posts. The C8 coming out will more than make up for our lost activity.
