Good for us bad for them. I see a lot of people lose their way and then focus. Lot of egos get in the way of good sound practice and judgement. I would think that if people with credability complained then there must be validity to the stated problem. So the bottom line is they never learned to listen!
Thanks for the comment about dad! Erin


It's a business. IB owns lots of sites. People get pissed off when things change. Fact is, the business model works. IB stock has gone up consistently the past 18 months.

When IB took over both sites, thirden.org and corvetteforum.com, both lost a few tech guys. But both also lots a bulk of the idiots, some of which worshipped and followed the good tech guys. They still have some strong tech folks like LD85, PeteK whom also moderates thirdgen.org, mseven, and tequilaboy.

I don't remember why Andy got banned. I know CC got banned frankly because he was baiting them. The mocking IB avatar was the 'last straw' if I recall.

You also can't piss off the owner. I don't agree with 99.9% of what Andy says tech wise, but if I spent all day calling him out what type of warm welcome should I expect on here?

Business models are fine. On a forum like ours there is certain amount trust and relationship building that builds a legacy. Calling people out or or getting in someones shit should be relegated to high schoolers. Wow if an avatar is offensive or you say something that contradicts a popular opinion thats too bad its America right! I have since read a few posts on CF seems a little sterile with no interaction from the members. Heaven forbid HCF.
I have never been confronted by anyone, and walk any wanting to come back day after day. Hey we have a pretty good thing going here.
