:shrug01: Simple this forum does not move!
...and...?
Then
HELP it move!:yesnod:
It's not going to do it on it's own:lmao:
You made the statement, now offer up some solutions/suggestions.
See, as we all know, it takes
INPUT to make a forum move. That
INPUT isn't generated by watchers.
Before loading up that next rock, take a look at your own stats:

Over 761 days on board and 421 posts? And a good portion of those were made early on.
Care to share the stats from some other sites you visit? I'd venture to guess that elsewhere your post count is likely up in the stratosphere?
I know my "stars" were almost completely full:lmao: in just a few years.
There's a lot going on in FLORIDA. Shows, events, cruises, parties, gatherings, etc, etc, etc, but if no one posts the information and no one posts about them, nothing's going to happen.
Bostons last Tuesday?
What happened there?
Never saw a word about it on here?
Why?
As Rich said, this forum has a much narrower focus than just the general Corvette community:thumbsup:
It's specific to the
FLORIDA owners and as such, could be a much greater resource than just about any general "section" on any of the major forums. You don't have to search for it, you don't have to sift through everything from Florida to South Carolina, and many of us are truly local to one another:thumbsup:
I frequent the following
INTERNATIONAL forums:
www.corvetteinternational.com
www.Corvette-Guru.com
www.Smokinvette.com
www.DigitalCorvettes.com
www.corvetteforums.com (not to be confused with the other one)
www.Corvetteactioncenter.com
and on occasion:
www.CorvetteValley.com
Yet my post count is farily well up there on here and growing in other places (haven't been there a long, but I do post).
I don't thrive on post counts and really couldn't tell you what mine is or was at any particular place. I post because I enjoy the interaction.
As we can see from this, there's room on the internet for everyone. Some places just haven't caught on to that concept or are too worried about the almighty dollar $$$ to embrace it
It obviously works for them and so be it.
This is a great place for
FLORIDA CORVETTE OWNERS to meet:thumbsup:
Although each of the aforementioned sites have thier forte',
none of them provide me with the local input I recieve here:NoNo:
None of them provide me with the friendships I've made here:thumbsup:
nor do they provide me with the ability to actually meet many of the members through out the year.
Even the formerly HUGE CorvetteForum failed in that regard. I had to keep checking back into the section, missed a lot of posts or got them late as a result, and in the end game although I had a lot of aquintances, I only had a handful of
true friends on that site (as evidenced later)
The averages are much better here:thumbsup: but we need the
people to start posting, responding to the threads and begin starting new ones:dancer01:
You'll find here that even though we may disagree, there's little if any "moderation", "editing", "locking" or any of the other free speech issues you'll find on some sites. There is some as we recently saw, but not nearly as much:thumbsup: Maybe thats a bad thing? Maybe it's a good thing? Time will tell.
What we're
NOT is a
COMMERCIAL SITE . As such we don't rely on sponsors or vendors to stay up and running.:thumbsup:
So...if you don't think the site "moves"...then stop complaining and help do something about it
Try being part of the solution and POST MORE:thumbsup:
Otherwise, comments like that are simply counterproductive and obviously not intent on making a site productive :NoNo:
Thanks.:thumbsup:
