Default CI XI - This Is Just Sad
There is exactly ONE thread about CI on CF. Mostly people saying how they're not coming, busy, etc. No pics. In the past, there were usually three or four threads going with pics.

This year, nothing.

Congratulations Jim and Jesse. You really know how to destroy something that was fun for everyone.

Yeah, all the fun over there seems to be gone/going away. All that's left are a few of the people who have been around for a while and vendors selling "kitchen sinks" and tuners that tend to blow up cars.

I have never been, looks like I will need to go to the C5/C6 bash instead as I usually go to the C4 ZR1 Gathering

Why not write IB and get a forced moderation change and take back CF?

I can honestly say, getting banned from there was one of the best things to happen. I kind of like it here and can't say I miss disneyland

Yeah! plus we have bewbs! Not me personally but the forum. Although I do have a set I call mine but that's another topic. Anyhow CF is still a great place for Vette related talk even if the gen sections are a bit repetitive at time. The OT section is the same bunch of folks who make the same jokes and wait to pounce on some unsuspecting poster for their own amusement or to make themselves feel important.

This place may not have the thread turnover yet but it's still a baby and there are cool people here who seem to be pretty genuine and that's what I like. Plus someday we'll have a VB cruise in and then you better watch out!

PEACE!

If we were to do a Vettebarn Cruise In, I think it would be fitting to do the first one at the real Vette barn...JMHO

I would like to be unbanned so I can buy/sell parts.... I'm shopping high mileage Z06s to build into a race car so I'll be parting much of it out. There's no better place to sell parts.

To be fair it's not even the weekend yet, and from what I've heard the beer/food isn't gonna happen like in previous years. Also take into account the economy.

As far as CF goes tho, I have only been a member there for ~20 months and it's gone WAY downhill in that time.

It's a thin shadow of what it was when I signed up 10 years ago.

Here is my question: Has the FORUM gone down? Or just OT?

If, as Brian says, it's "the best place to sell parts" perhaps the other sections of the forum are just fine?

I honestly don't know. Just wondering.
