Default Time flies when you're having fun...

Hey everyone! I've just hit the 1,000 posts mark here on CF. 99% of those posts were in C5 General and I just want to thank everyone for what I've learned and been able to contribute to. After hitting 1,000 posts, I've also decided to become a Gold Supporting Member. Thanks again to CF and all the members here for making it such a great place!

Justin

It is a great place. Been a member about a year and still consider myself a newbie but I've learned a lot - things that I never would have learned just going to the local "show and shine" carshows. In fact, when I encounter another C5 owner I'll always ask if they are a member. If not, I'll promote this forum as best I can.

Congrats on 1K - Justin. I agree - this CAN be a great place. I think if we all remember to conduct ourselves with courtesy and respect, it CAN be an even greater place.

Oh - and BTW.....post count celebrations are not allowed until you reach 10K!

Thanks Randy...you've been someone that I respect your opinion on many subjects.

I know 1K isn't many posts, but to me, it's an accomplishment saying that CF is a great place and I enjoy it! Thanks!
