Corvette Forum Does it Again
A posting was made for the upcoming Corvettes Anonymous Show. It included a link to a page on the Corvettes Anonymous web site for details and the money hungry Bas..... locked it out. Can someone explain how CA is a threatening entity.
I'm not looking to start a go around like the one in that brewed up in the club section, just would like to know how a little viewed site can threaten the almighty CF$

I feel your pain Rick, but it's thier sandbox.
Can't link to other sites, e-bay, blah blah blah, even though the events may be for a good cause; however, you can go to the bottom of the page and hit Dial-A-Whore all day long
Go figure?
Good luck with it bro...

Just a thought!
C5RICK:
Not sure I should jump in, but the CA show is posted here and not linked to any other site except ours at CF. Why would additional posts be required ?

I think it's more the principal than the rationale.
If I were going to host a show, especially a benefit, I'd post it any where I could for the exposure.
As I've said before, too many websites are childish/territorial about thier "membership" and try way to hard to claim exclusivity to certain groups
Although I disagree with that concept, other than for supporting that type of behavior, I can't really blame the moderators and administrators.
They are simply doing the bidding of the site ownership.
Where we're pretty laid back, others aren't so. Just have to learn to deal with it or leave

Seems similar to a dictatorship or something Adolph would start

Yea, but they must enjoy being the authority. I studied this personality type in my Psychology classes at Kent State

No Harm No Foul Guys. Trickflow was just doing his (or her) job. I say "or her" because Trickflow is a Corvettes Anonymous member ... even though I haven't figured out WHO !
At any rate, here is a new link.
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...post1564977978
This show is in partnership with CorvetteFlorida but in respect to Corvette Forum and their restriction, I thought it best to omit that. In reality, it isn't about any forum, association, or club. It is about delivering over 4000 pounds of food to the RCS Food Bank.
We've received some EXCITING sponsorship gifts and food grants so all we need now is lots of cars and the usual Beautiful May Evening Weather.
As you know from the Corvettes Anonymous website, CorvetteFloida, Corvetteactioncenter, and Corvettevalley all had a HUGE hand in helping us launch and have continued to support us and our efforts.
Within the next week, I will post this event on CAC and CV.
The best problem we could ever have is too many cars and too much food.
Why not jump in and help us create that problem?

Hey Tom,
If you want to find a bunch of the nere-do-wells, scofflaws, outlaws and plain old no longer welcomed from the old CorvetteForum, try posting it on:
www.corvette-guru.com.
There are a lot of the old timers there as well as a bunch of newbies.
And they don't care if you link it back here, corvetteforum or wherever They just like the same things we do, corvettes and commaraderie without the politics and "business" of runnong a for profit website.
I link things from here over there and vice versa. It's all good
I even have: www.corvetteflorida.com and www.corvetteinternational.com in my sig and no one's said a word except
Several from here are there and vice versa.
