Purplebaghera 0 Posted February 16 Hi all,Been here for years still have my two, lurking in the garage!! Just paid my annual £15 to car ventures, does anyone know if I’m still doing a good thing for the forum. Is it still going to the right place? Thanks.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 26 Posted February 16 fb - I'm noticing more and more click bait, pages taking an age to load due to the amount adverts......... A1 created features with so much incorrect info........... On top of general poor advice / info being offered in groups (not Corrado groups ATM). Maybe the forums that survived could make a come back? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to join, but I'm dubios...... if like I said before, its been put out to pasture then I'll probaly not... honestly, i think so but the lack of contact does concern me i think there are a couple of other moderators but im not sure how active they are - i was kind of hoping someone would post with some news tbh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

easypops 8 Posted February 18 I have Toby in a WhatsApp group chat along with another Moderator or 2. Ive hardly been on so wasn’t as aware as I should be of what’s going on. Apologies for that. Toby has replied on the WhatsApp group and said he’ll have a look in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are only able to clear spam. Site direction: like the Corrado...except for a few interested individuals it is fading to obsolescence. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well the Corrado will suffer from fading that goes without saying... there is very few of them left, doesnt mean the site has to. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Geeba 0 Posted March 2 Sooooo is Toby going to call in and fix the site? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The site only exists thanks to Toby, it makes a loss, so his time is better spent on other projects to pay his bills just like the rest of us. he doesn’t own a corrado anymore either, I suspect this is what we have, use it or lose it. its a bit flunky but still better than fb with all the AI generated rubbish that’s factually flawed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geeba 0 Posted March 3 Yeah I get that, but surely if full admin rights were spread across others then bits could be fixed and people would be more inclined to sign up. It appears to get a large amount of guests if the 'Online Users' is accurate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It appears to get a large amount of guests if the 'Online Users' is accurate? I think you'll find that the majority of "guests" are spammers and bots. There is a small team of site moderators, but these are not site admins - they mainly to caretaker work on the forum, such as banning users, deleting dodgy content and scams and approving new posts.

Cressa 45 Posted March 4 It would be nice if it worked how it did. What can we do to help achieve that? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
