Default What happened to Corvette Key?

All the recent postings by Corvette Key - including all the replies - including my own! - are gone! If you view the member list, you will not even find them in the list anymore! ... note that they are no longer listed as a CF Vendor. Will someone tell me WTF is going on?

I THINK WE ARE OWED AN EXPLAINATION

Hmmm. Don't know and this may be unfair, but perhaps they got everything they needed in terms of publicity and orders for the product and decided to pull out of their Vendor sponsorship.

Again, probably unfair and hopefully incorrect, but if they have gone missing to that extent I can't think of too many reasons why.

Even if that was so, the threads should be locked - not deleted. There were promises made to CF members in those threads. We should be able to refer back to them if needed.

Agree.........I think Grumpy was following the saga pretty closely. Maybe he can send out details.

Not trying to be Forum police - but let's avoid jumping to conclusions on this vendor.

If there is an issue related to the administration/moderators, the correct way to handle it is to send a PM to Savewave, Troy Roberts or the moderators - and not call them out public forum.

Hmm..Don't quite buy this one. One person asks and then thats the only person that knows.

Asking it in a thread lets everyone that has an interest know what’s going on.

Nope, if you are not a supporting vendor anymore, your post will get deleted. Otherwise, you still can search for it.

Agreed - especially those of us that have spent money with them and are awaiting our product.

Yes, but that is an old thread. All their recent ones are gone. You know, the ones where there are dozens of people waiting for the products that they have paid for

Also noticed on the referenced thread they are identified as a member, not a supporting vendor? Maybe they didn't pay the bill .

Corvette Key is not a supporting vendor. Non-supporting vendors can not use the Forum to market and promote commercial sales. If anyone needs specific information from the theads that were removed, PM a moderator. They still have access to the threads.
