No one was ever posting on it ....... so it became too much of a PIA keeping all of the spammers off and keeping the system going.

I was experiencing trouble on the site for some time and Startlogic (the forum host) was not interested in fixing the problem. Turns out, they were not even aware that the site had a virus. The service was so bad that calling them resulted in at least an hour on "ignore" and most of the time I just gave up. They were great two years ago, but they went in to the toilet since then. So, it's now shut down.

We had a lot of fun, but traffic seemed to dissappear during the last 6 months and come back to the (CF) forum. At least we have our own section here and that was the original reason for PNWCorvettes.

Thanks to all who hung on and helped our little forum survive as long as it did.

Keith

Keith - You did a great job with it and those of us who were users really appreciated your efforts. Now you have to figure out what to do with all of your spare time.

Hey...you typed correctly in the Pemco Insurance thread....SO WE KNOW YOU CAN DO IT. YES, I'M YELLING!!!!!! :

They Never Ask Any Questions When I Bought The Vette Or Any Other Car Or Truck But Did Ask If I Had Ever Driven A Large Rig When I Bought The $150,000 Mh. No Ticket, No Citations And An Excellent Credit Rate Help Keep The Premiums Down Too. So Far, Very Happy With Them.

Two years ago until a couple weeks ago. It was created because there was no PNW section here. This section appeared right after that forum was created.

...And you are still bad mouthing that forum. I don't know what the hell set you off but I have explained it to you for the last time. Try reading below...here is what you said and my response to you:

Vetred....The one person that made a personal remark about you was PM'd immediately. He has not been back since, nor will he be. I hope you are not basing your experience on that forum by the actions of one individual. I don't know what you are referring to with "data mining" comment, but you can PM me about it on either this or the other forum and I will look in to it.
