As Franc mentioned, we all voted on retaining the forum. The majority said "keep it" -- even those that didn't use it. When you don't have a sewer, the **** backs up everywhere (as it is now).
Popular voted be damned, the forum was axed, and many members alienated because of it. Has anyone heard from radmanly lately?
To simplify the political forum into an "Obama roast" is a gross insult to the many great breakthroughs that were had in the past in that sub-forum. Road projects, gas prices, foreign issues, happenings in the military -- those were all covered in that large umbrella of politics.
I'd love to have a chat with my Crossfire buds about Syria, and get their take on it. But I can't, because the mods will view that as "political" and delete the thread.
Yes, the community suffers "lack of depth" as a result.
Lack of depth?
We are stuck viewing everything pretty much thru the lens of an obsolete two seater designed in the late 90's that has no corporate support or successor. Most who original bought the Crossfire did so when it was an exciting new entry and half of those guys have moved on.
The only interesting discussions are in one Sub forum about other cars and one can get that subject elswhere. That and about once a week a curiously pointless but entertaining run of short quips in the Chat box.
I see a newbie name or two most everyday but the daily log on counts seldom exceed more tha 320. Suggesting this Forum loses as many as it gains. Not exactly a growth market.
