"The inevitable has finally occurred: a mass migration of CC members to Talk Cobra. While I'm unsurprised by this development, I'm astonished it took so long. This platform, once a vibrant hub, is rapidly becoming obsolete and irrelevant. It now serves merely as an archive of historical information, devoid of any dynamic engagement. The unreliable connection issues and lack of meaningful responses from ownership have rendered it unreliable for seeking answers. This decline is a stark reflection of our times, where something once cherished by many is callously discarded by its owner, who ignores members' concerns and comments. The writing is on the wall – this once-thriving community is fading into irrelevance."

This platform has consistently upheld its standards throughout my membership, maintaining a refreshing atmosphere free from unchecked far-right rhetoric, homophobic tirades, soft porn, and persistently disrespectful remarks from a vocal minority. Notably, this site had also managed to keep technical discussions – ostensibly its core focus, given its dedication to a specific car model, striking a balance that fosters constructive engagement and civility. This commendable moderation (primarily by membership) had created a sanctuary for thoughtful exchange, shielding users from toxic discourse and ensuring meaningful interactions.
I can believe any vendor is still paying to advertise here, as vendor banners for long gone company’s still persist.
I only wish that Dan Semko was still here to perform the eulogy for the website.
